FRANK rrrz GIBBON, oE-EAST'OEANGE, NEW J'EEsEY, AND cLAEENcE or Bos'JoN, MASSACHUSETTS.
EITZPATEICK,
FASTENER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 9, 1515. `Serial No. 13,156.
T 0 all 'whom t may concern Be it known that we, FRANK FiTz GIBBON and CLARENCE FrTzrA'rniC-K, citizens of the United States, residing at East Orange, county of Essex, and Stateof New Jersey, and Boston, Massachusetts, respectively, have invented certain new and useful 1mprovements in Fasteners, of which the following is a clear, full, and exact description.
rIhis invention relates to fasteners of the ball and socket type, such as used for in-` stance as glove fasteners.
The improvement particularly relates to the socket portion of the fastener, and an object of the invention is toprovide such socket portion with a .removable button, so that buttons of differentv constructions and ornamentation may be applied to the same Socket member.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a simple and practical fastener having a removable button. V
These beingfamong the objectsof the present invention, the same consists of certain features of construction and combinations of parts to be hereinafter described and then claimed with reference to the accompanying drawings illustrating desirable embodiments of the invention, and in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of one form of the device showing a complete ball and socket fastener applied to two layers of material to be connected; Fig. 2 is a diametrical section, the ball member being in elevation, on line 2 2 Fig. 1; Fig. 3 isa diametrical section showing a layer' of material and two members of the socket portion in position before the parts are permanently secured together by an upsetting action; Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the form of screw-threaded annulus shown in Figs. 2 and 3; Fig. 5 .is a side elevation of another form of the invention; Fig. 6 is a section on the line 6 6 Fig. 5, partly in elevation; Fig. 7 is a section partly in elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 6 before they are permanently secured together by upsetting; Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the annulus shown in Figs. 6 and 7 and Fig. 9 is a diametrical section of a different form of button shown in the other figures, while the buttons of the two illustrated forms of fastener are also different from each other. F igs.`r 5 and 6 do not show a socket member.
Referring to figs. 1 to l inclusive which illustrate one` form of the invention, the ball member 10 may be of any suitable type attached to one layer of material 11. The socket member is attached to another layer of material 12. Said socket member comprises as shown more clearly in Fig. 2, an annulus 13 which is provided with a screwthread 14- on its outer periphery, said annulus being provided with an internal annular flange 15 located at ther lower end of the same, together with an eyelet 16 which is provided with an annular exterior flange 17, between which and the .said flange 15 the material 12 is secured, while the other end of said eyelet is provided with an exterior yannular flange 18 which is in contact with theY said flange 15 so that the latter is secured between the flange 1S and the material 12. The annulus 13 is shown detached in Fig. 4..
' The parts of the described socket member are assembled'as follows. The parts are applied to the material 12, so that the flange 17 of the eyelet 16is in contact with one surface of the material 12, while the said eyelet extends through the material and through the opening 19 which is surrounded'by the flange 15 of the annulus, said flange 15 being in contact with the other surface of the material 12. The eyelet 16 is shown in Fig. 3 as not upset. To upset that end thereof which is within the annulus 13, said end is subjected to the action of a suitable punch which upsets the inner end of the eyelet upon the anvil surface 2O at the inner side of the flange 15, with the result that the eyelet is formed with an exterior annular flange 18 which is located within the annulus and in `connection with A vided with a rounded top 22 and an external flange 22a which abuts against the material 12 when said button is screwed onto the annulus.
The embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. 5 to S inclusive comprises an annulus 23 provided with an external screwthread 2er and an internal screw-thread or roughened surface Q5, said annulus having an external annular flange 26 at one end. Said annulus Q3 is secured to the material as follows. An eyelet 27 provided with a flange 2S is introduced through an opening in the material as shown in Fig. 7, to which the socket member is to be attached, said eyelet being of such length that its flange 28 is separated from the material. The unlianged end of said eyelet 27 is caused to abut preferably against the inner anvil surface of the closed top 23 of said annulus 23. A suitable punch is now introduced into the eyelet 27 and against its flange Q8 so as to upset the inner end of the eyelet against said top 23a and onto the screw-threaded or roughened inner surface 25 of the annulus, so that the inner end of said eyelet is formed as shown in Fig. 6 with an enlargement or flange 30 which is in initimate binding contact at 30 with the inner periphery of the annulus. The upsetting action is intended to permanently secure the. annulus and eyelet together and to the material of the glove or other article. The roughened or screwthreaded inner surface 25 of the annulus enters to a certain extent the outer surface of the enlargement 30 which is upset within said annulus. A capy or button 29 is then screwed onto said annulus 23. The cap or button 29 shown in Figs. 5, 6 is of different shape from that shown in Figs. 1 and 2.V
Obviously various kinds of removable caps or button members may be employed so as to produce a different effect, and said caps or buttons may be constructed of one piece of a given material or may be constructed of different materials or of more than one part. A cap or button constructed of more than one part and of different materials is shown in Fig. 9. rihis comprises a collar 31 provided with an internal screwthread 32, and an internal flange 33 located at the outer end of said collar, which provides an aperture 84 through which may ap- Copes of this patent may be obtained for ve cen pear an ornamental stone top 35' which is secured to the socket member when the screw collar 31 is screwed onto the annulus to receive it.
The invention is susceptible of modification as parts may be omitted, added and substituted without departing from the spirit and scope thereof as claimed.
'Vhatwe claim as new is p 1. A fastener, the combination of an eX- ternally screw-threaded annulus, means for permanently securing the same, from its interior, to a piece of material, anda screw cap applied to said annulus.
2. In a fastener, the combination of an externally screw-threaded annulus, means for permanently securing the same, from its interior, to a piece of material, said means being upset witnin said annulus, and a screw cap applied to said annulus.V
In a fastener, the combination of an externally screwthreaded annulus which is interiorly contracted at one end, an eyelet extending thereinto and upset against said eentracted end to secure said parts to a piece of material, and a screw cap applied to said annulus.
In a fastener, the combination of an externally screw-threaded annulus provided with an interior anvil-surface, means eX- tcnding into said annulus and upset against said anvil-surface, to secure said parts to a piece of material, and an ornamental finishing button or cap screwed onto said annulus.
5. In a fastener, the combination of an annulus, means for permanently securing the same, from its interior, to a piece of material, said means being upset within said annulus, and a cap secured removably to said annulus.
