NEQKTIE-FASTENER.
Application' filed May 14, 1915;. seriar o. 28,154.
\ Philadelphia,,in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Neckt e- Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
The .inventlon relates to a necktie fasitenen and more particularly-to "the. class of. bow tie claspsv or'fasteners.
The primary object of the invention is the provisionzof a clasp or fastener of'thi's-character. whereinoaniordinary 'bow tie which resembles the hand-tied bow-is conven'iently fastened in position at. the gap in the fold of the shirt collar of the turmover :style with despatch, thereby obviating the fastening of the tie to the head of a COllQI 'bHtlEOI]. in the usual manner, orotherwise securing it position, thus relievingthe user of the troublesome imanipula-tionvof thetie in secur ingthe= same, and the untidy appearance thereof when-engagedupon the collar button inthe ordinary well-knowntman-ner. v
' Another object ofthe invention is the provision'of a: clasp or fastener oft-his character wherein the collar :is firmly, held fast at the front thereof when theqtieis in wearing position, so as to avoidany excessive opening of the-.gap'betweenthe folded over portion of the, said collar, and-thereby eliminating the pinching of the neck of the wearer resultanttherefrom. I
A further objectof the invention is the provision; of a clasp or fastener of this character wherein the bow tie will befirmlyheld in its adjusted position at the point of and overlapping the gap vbetween theyfolded over portion 'ofthe collar at the frontthereof so asto avoid'the sagging-of the tie at either side of the gap, oroidispla-cement, thereof when worn, and also will eliminate the spreading of the, collar or "the-working of the overlapped gfron't ends thereeffastened to-theeollar button,;which ordinarily results in anuntidy appearance to the-wearer.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a claspor ifastener -ofthis character which is novel'in form to assure the proper positioning and securing of both the tie and collar without any inconvenience tozthe user. 7 V p ,A still further object of the invention is theprovision-of a clasp or fastener of this Specification of letters Patent.
Pa en ed Apr-4, T 191 struction, readily and easily applied to a 'bow tie without in any manner disfiguring the shape thereof, thoroughly reliable and @filOlBIl'blIldfiS purpose, strong, durable, and uneXp ensive in manufacture.
character whichisextremely-simple in coni With these :and other objects in view, the
invention consists in the construction, 1 combination-andarrangement ofpartses will he :he'rei-nafter fully described, illustrated in ,the accompanying drawing, 1 andpointed out .inthe. claims hereunto appended. v
Jnithe drawing :z.F;igure 1 is a perspectiveviewfof a collar showing a bow tie fasteneidposition accordance with: the invention. Eig; isia-zf'rontelevation ofth'e clasp removed from the tie. Fig. 3 isa rear elevation ithereof. Fig. 24 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the clip 0r fastener "in position for securing the tie in place. 5 Fig.1 5 is a top plan view showing the clasp or fastener open and removed from the tie.
Similar reference,characters-indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail, A
designatesigenerally a shirt collar, which in thi-siinstance. isofthe folded over style, and
B a bowtie, which re'sembles't-he hand tied bow, and 'isofrthe usual well-known eonstruction, having fastened therein the clasp or fastener; hereinafter fully described.
7 The claspor fastener comprisesa frame G-including-=a pair of spacediparal-lel side or cheek plates -10 whichare united-tea curved g or areuateshapedsbaek plate-.11 through the medium of narrowlconnecting web portions 12 which are formed 'medial-ly thereof and space-the, side or cheek plates 10 fromthe said baekpl ate'of the;frame. Arranged betweenthesideor-cheek-plates 10 is aipair of 1 clamping j aws 1:3, the inner ends I of which are formed withpivots l twhichrare vjournaled infthe side or cheek plates 10 contiguoustoa centralstud 15 which is fastenedlin the side or check plates 10., and has coiled area about the same, la -tension spring 16, the re spective ends 117 of which play against the clamping jaws l3yforaworking' at opposite sides ;of the; said stud ftonormally holdthc same away 1 from the back plate 1-1 or in open position so that theflrfolded or turned over portion-of; the collar "A can he engagedtherebetween; so that-on the closing of the jaws 13 the-frame will be firml-y clamped to the, free ends of the folded or turned over portion of the said collar, the jaws 13 being closed in a manner presently described.
The clamping jaws 13 are reversely curved with respect to the curvature of the plate 11, and also are formed close to their pivoted inner ends with abrupt swells or bights 18 for a purpose presently described.
Pivoted within the frame C Outside of the points of pivotal connection of the jaws 13 therein are eccentric levers 19 which are formed at their inner ends with in-turned lips or tongues 20 which frictionally slide upon the swells or bights 18 which constitute cams in the clamping jaws 13 so that they will be suddenly and quickly moved to clamping position on pressing inwardly upon the eccentric levers 19 and also to assure a wide range of opening of the clamping jaws or the separation thereof from the back plate 11 with slight outward movement of the said eccentric levers 19 for the unfastening of the clasp or fastener. The eccentric levers 19 have their pivots 21 journaled in the side or cheek plates 10 of the frame C to permit free swinging movement thereof. 1
The clamping jaws 13 and the eccentric levers 19 are formed with apertures 22 to provide holes for thread stitches whereby the clasp or fastener can be secured in the H as tie without necessitating the wrapping of thread about the said jaws and levers and thereby presenting unsightly stitching upon the wings of the tie B when the clasp or fastener is mounted therein.
The clasp or fastener is built into the tie B with the back plate 11 exposed centrally at the rear thereof, while the jaws 13 and eccentric levers 19 are concealed within the inner wings of the bow tie B, and the thread stitching is carried through the apertures 22 in both the jaws and eccentric levers so that the wings of the tie are what is commonly known as tacked thereto, and thereby eliminating undue stitching for the fastening of the clasp or fastener within the tie.
In the application of the tie the eccentric levers 19 are pulled outwardly, thereby separating the clamping jaws 13 from the back plate 11, as these jaws are acted upon by the spring 16 which causes the opening of the jaws, and now the tie may be conveniently applied to the collar with despatch by merely inserting the back plate in the gap between the ends of the folded or turned over portion of the collar A and sliding it to the position desired. The free ends of the folded or turned-over portion at the gap of the collar engage in the spaces 23 provided between the side of thecheek plates 10 and the back plate 11 of the frame at opposite sides of the web portions 12 spacing the side of the cheek plates from the said back plate 11 of the frame. When the tie B has been properly positioned relative to the collar A the eccentric levers 19 are pushed inwardly by pressso as to prevent the spreading of such collar or the excessive opening or closing of the gap in the front thereof.
When the eccentric levers 19 are pressed inwardly for the fastening of the tie in position they will cause the wings of the tie to assume a tidy and neat appearance relatively close to the collar without resultant stiflness in the appearance of the tie so that it will closely resemble the hand tied bow.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the construction and manner of use of the device will be clearly understood, and therefore a more extended explanation has been omitted.
What is claimed is 1. The combination with a bow tie, of a fastener comprising a frame supporting the tie and forming an arcuate shaped stationary back plate and spaced cheeks, a pair of clamping jaws pivoted in the frame between the cheeks thereof, and levers pivoted in the frame and adapted to act on the jaws to move the same in clamping relation to the back plate of the frame.
2. The combination with a bow tie, of a fastener comprising a frame supporting the tie and forming an arcuate shaped stationary back plate and spaced cheeks, a pair of clamping jaws pivoted in the frame between the cheeks thereof, levers pivoted in the frame and adapted to act on the jaws to move the same in clamping relation to the back plate of the frame, and resilient means for opening the jaws on releasing the levers. I 3. The combination with a bow tie, of a fastener supporting the same and comprising stationary and movable clamping members, means concealed within the tie for actuating the movable clamping members to bring the same in locking position relative to the stationary member, and means for separating'the movable clamping members from the back plate when released from the stationary member.
4:. The combination with a bow tie, of a fastener supporting the same and comprising stationary and movable clamping members, means concealed within the tie for actuating the movable clamping members to bring the same in looking position relative supported by the frame for acting upon the said members to move the same in clamping position, and means to separate the members from the back plate when the members are 15 freed.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
