CHARLES HEAD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
GARMENT-FASTENER.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES READ, a citi- Zen of the United States, and resident of the city of New York, county of Queens, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gan ment-Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to fastening means, and more particularly to garment fasteners, though the utility of the invent-ion is not necessarily limited to the garment field.
The object of the invention is to provide a cheap, easily manufactured, and reliable fastening device, which will be useful wherever hooks and eyes are employed andfor many purposes for which hooks and eyes would not be suitable.
To this end, the invention consists in the parts, arrangements and combinations hereinafter described, illustrated by means of preferred embodiments in the accompanying drawings, and more particularly set forth in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, showing, as illustrative, the preferred form of the invention, Figure 1 is a top plan view of the lower fastener member; Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the upper fastener member; Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 1, looking in the direction of the arrow; Fig. @l is a plan view of the two fastener members superposed and in register as to their outer peripheries; and Fig. 5 is a section on the line 55 of Fig. 4:, looking in the direction of the arrows.
In the garment fastener as shown the cooperating fastening members are preferably in the form of plates of suitable form, illustrated in the drawings as A and B, which are secured to the garment. These plates are preferably formed by punching the same out of sheet metal and each is formed with a portion within its periphery dropped be- Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed July 1, 1910.

Serial No. 569,852.
with the bodies of their plates by web por t ons or strips A and B these web portions being formed integral with both the dropped portions and the plate bodies. Preferably, the web portions A and B are located, as shown, at opposite sides of the dropped portions A and B and near the ends thereof, so that they do not interfere with the turning and engagement of the fastener members.
Preferably, the plates A and B are adapted to register when superposed and locked. the dropped portions A and B being rela tively skewed on the two plates; so that, when the plates are turned relatively to e11- gage the dropped portion B beneath the opening in the plate A, the plates are brought into register.
An important feature of the invention is the provision of centering means, best provided by forming a circular boss A in the dropped portion A and a recess B in the dropped portion B the boss A being received in the recess B as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The dropped portion A is desirably provided with strengthening ribs or corrugations A and the dropped portion B with ribs or corrugations B The plate B may be provided at its corners with attaching means for securing the same to the garment, which may be in the nature merely of thread openings B, by means of which the garment may be secured against the upper side of the plate. The attaching means A of the plate A is preferably dropped below the plane of the body of the plate, so as to space the body of the plate away from the garment, thus obviating any great bulge due to the dropped portion A This attaching means may be in the nature of the dropped portions of the plate, A having thread apertures A In the use of the fastener, the two plates are attached to the two garment portions which it is desired to connect by separable fastening means. One garment portion is secured to the upper side of plate B and the other garment portion to the lower side of plate A by the attaching means just described. In adjusting the fastening, the two plates are merely skewed a trifle and the dropped portion B enter into the opening over the dropped portion A Upon being released the resiliency of the cloth will cause the dropped portion B to engage beneath the sides of the cooperating opening of the plate A, allowing the garment to assume its natural position which will bring the plates into register and throw the parts A and B out of register, as shown in Fig. 4. The portion A serves as a guard to prevent clothing being caught between the portion 13 and the body of the plate A.
It is thus seen that a simple form of garment fastener is provided, which may be easily made by punching the two parts from sheet metal, thus rendering it possible to produce the same cheaply in large quantities.
It will be understood that in actual manufacture the fasteners will be much smaller than shown in the drawings, in which the parts have been enlarged in order to show more clearly the construction and operation.
hat is claimed as new is:
In a device of the kind described, a pair of plates adapted to be superposed and to register, each of said plates having an elongated portion dropped below the plane of its body, forming an opening therethrough, web portions connecting said dropped portions with its body, said elongated portions being of similar size and shape and skewed with respect to each other, said web portions of each dropped portion being arranged at opposite ends and sides and the web of one dropped portion being oppositely arranged with respect to the web of the other dropped portion, whereby the dropped portion of one plate is adapted to enter the opening over the other dropped portion and by a slight relative turn of the plate to engage beneath the sides of said opening, and said dropped portions being provided with a central coope 'ating boss and socket.
Signed at New York in the county of New York and State of New York, this 17th day of June, 1910.
