EDWIN HEGKMAN, OF VALLEJO, CALIFORNIA.
COLLAR-RETAINER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed September 8, 1915. Serial No. 49,448.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN HECKMAN, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Vallejo, in the county of Solano and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Collar-Retainers, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to an improved collar retainer to take the place of the ordinary separable collar button at the back of the neck for buttoning the collar to the shirt. It is a well known fact that these collar buttons occasionally form a serious hindrance to the adjustment of the necktie around the collar.
The object of the present invention is to provide a collar retainer which will be free from this objection, and which will, at the same time, be securely held within the button-hole provided therefor in the shirt.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a front view of the retainer; Fig. 2 is a rear view; Fig. 3 is a top plan view; Fig. 4: is an end view; Fig. 5 is a rear view of the retainer in position in a shirt.
Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates my improved retainer, which is formed of a single piece of sheet material folded along a mediate line, its two halves being precisely alike. Each halfis roughly T-shaped in form, and comprises a cross member 2, a vertical member 3 and a terminal member 4. The cross members of the two halves are integrally joined along adjacent edges and have rounded ends 6. The vertical members 3 taper in width from the cross members to the terminal members. The terminal members 4 have rounded ends 7 projecting slightly on each side of the vertical member. In their normal position the two halves of of juncture. For insertion in the buttonhole they can be easily pressed together by the fingers, but spring apart when the pressure is removed. The retainer is preferably made concavo-convex in form, so as to conform to the rotundity of the collar against which it lies.
In using the retainer its two halves are pressed together by the fingers and the two Coplesof this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing Washington, D. G.
terminal portionsare held uppermost and are inserted through the button-holes of the flap of the shirt and of the collar. The retainer is then turned downward through nearly two right angles so that the two cross pieces are now uppermost and lie between I the shirt and its flap and the two terminal portions are now lowermost and lie between the two folds of the collar. If a retainer-is already in position in the shirt and -it is Patented Feb. 8, 1916.;
desired to attach a collar thereto, a similar operation takes place, that is to say, the retainer is placed so that the terminal portions are, uppermost and are then inserted through the button-hole of the collar and is then turned downward so that the terminal portions lie between the two folds of the collar.
The following is the reason why the retainer is made in two sections which are sprun apart from one another. If made of a sing e section without any fold, then, when a collar is removed from the retainer, and said retainer is then in the position in which the terminal portion extends uppermost, the retainer is very apt to slip through the button-hole of the shirt and be temporarily lost. By making it in two sections which are sprung apart from each other, this objection is avoided, forthe distance between the terminal portions of the two sections prevents them from readily slipping through the but Witnesses:
