JOHN FOOLLINS AND ARTHUR NEILL, OF NEW YORK, 'N. Y,
Letters Patent No. 103,511, dated May 31, 1870; mama May 27, 1870,
IMPROVEMENT IN BUTTONS.
The Schedulereferred toln these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom may concern Be'it known that we, J can F. COLLINS and Alt- THUR NEILL, both of the city, county, and State of New York, have'invcnt-ed a new and useful Improvement in Self-fastening Buttons; and do hereby 'declarethat the following is a full and exactdescription thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings making part of this specification, of which- Figurel is a vertical section, showing our invention as applied to an article of wearing apparei.
Figure 2, a top view of the button, with the outer suri'ace of the button-head removed. f
Figure 3, a side elevation of the stem of the button showing the spring jaws, and
Figure 4, an elevation of the said stem asit appears while being forced into the buttomhead, with the spring jaws closed;
This invention, relating to a novel improvement in self-fastening buttons, consists of a nearly'flatdisk, surmounted by a series of spring jaws, constituting the stem of the button, said spring jaws being passed through the wearing apparel in the first place, and next through a hole in the back of the buttoirhead, the said hole being smaller in diameter than the diameter of the expanded jaws, so that, when the spring jaws pass through the hole in the back of the button, they expand, thereby uniting the button-head to its stem, and firmly securing the article of wearingapparel between them','and the button receives the part of the garment to be buttoned on its head, instead of on the stern, as in ordinary cases.
In the,drawings- A denotes the button-head,-having a projection, B, at its back, said projection being rounded out, as shown at O, for reception of the part of the garment to be buttoned thereon. v
D- is av circular hole inithe back of said b'utton, throu h which the spring-jawed stem is inserted this upward, These spring jaws taper from the disk f to 'theIja'ws g g,v said jawsforming an acute angle at 13, corresponding to the sharp projection or elongation of the hole in the hack of the button, as shown at d d, fig.
1,.t-he objectof the acute angle in said jaws being to overlapthe corresponding project-ions d d on the inside of the button, whereby the jaws are held expanded, and prevented from approaching each other by any undue strain on the button; and K represents the cloth squeezed up and held firmly between the buttonhead and stem, while the garment is buttoned on thehead.
' "lo detach our button from the garment on which it is thus fastened, is. simply to pass a loop of twist around the stem, between the cloth and buttonhead, and press the stem forward until the jaws g g are released from the projections ll-d, and nextdraw the loop tightly, when the jaws will-assume the form shown in fig. 4, and be released from the 'bntton head and cloth with ease and despatch.
\Vhat we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the button recess I), having the raised or acute edge (I, and-the springbars g g of the fastener, having heads M fitting over the raised edge d, substantially as and for the'purpose herein specified.
In testimony'whereof, we have hereunto set our signatures this 30th day of May, 1868.
JOHN F. COLLINS. A. NEILL.
