UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HERMAN WEBER, 0F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
BUTTON.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HERMAN IVEBER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in But-tons, of which the following is a specitication.
My invention relates to improvements in buttons. and more particularly to collar buttons, the object of the invention being to provide a button which is especially adapted for use in connection with army blouses which enables the ready fastening of the collar in the collar of the blouse, and does not require skilled labor to attach the buttons.
A further object is to provide a. button which may be manufactured and sold at an extremely low cost, and which may be quickly positioned on a garment and securely held in operative position therein.
\Vith these and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the inside of a blouse at the collar illustrating my improved buttons secured therein and onto which a collar is buttoned. Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation on an enlarged scale. Fig. 3 is an end view, and Fig. 4 is a view in longitudinal section.
1 represents the collar portion of a military blouse. and 2 an ordinary collar such as commonly worn by military men. \Vithin the blouse my improved buttons 3 are secured, and the collar 2 is connected to these buttons by positioning the buttons through the button holes of the collar, so that the collar extends above the blouse in conformity with army regulations.
The button 3 is of metal and comprises a base 4 having a shank 5 and a head 6 on the free end of the shank. On the opposite face of the base 4:, a sharp wire coil 7 is secured and is adapted to cut its way into the material of the garment when the button is given a rotary movement. A sharp hook 8 is also provided on the base, and the sharp Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 23, 1912.
Patented Feb. 3, 1914.
Serial No. 716,597.
end of said hook extends in a direction opposite to the direction of the coil, so that when the coil is turned into the goods, the goods may be caught by the hook and prevent any turning of the button in the opposite direction to release the coil from the goods. In other words, the hook acts to prevent any retrograde movement, and securely locks the button after once being positioned in the goods. Of course, if it is desired to remove the button, the hook may be detached and the button unscrewed.
A preferable way of constructing the coil andthe hook is to form them of a single piece of wire forming the hook at that end of the wire coil which is secured to the base and bent at an approximate right angle to the main portion of the coil. This is the way I have illustrated the structure in the drawing, and by so making the same I am enabled to form the device of two parts, the button constituting one part, and the coil and hook the second part.
lVhile I have described my improved button as of special usefulness in connection with army blouses, I would have it understood that the button is not limited to this use, but has a wide range of usefulness, and I do not limit myself to the precise details set forth, but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A button comprising a base shank and head, and a wire secured adjacent one of its ends to said base. the longer end of. said wire being coiled and the shorter end of said wire Ibeing bent downwardly forming a shoulder and then bent to project in a di rection opposite to the coil with relation to the direction of rotation, and both ends of said wire being sharpened, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
HER-MAN WEBER.
