BUTTON FOR snags, m. PLICATION FILED Patelimd Dec. 19,1916.
WILLIAM E. un ons, or GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
f norroivron. snons, 8m.
To all whom itma'yl concern: a r
Be it,known that 1, WILLIAM 'ELIJAH ELLIOTT, a citizen of the Unitedv States of America, residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of. :Michigan, have invented certain :new; and useful Improvements in Buttons for Shoes, &c.; and
I do hereby declarefithe following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such .as' will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and usethe same.
' This invention relates to a-button conparts throughout the several views of the struction of especial adaptation in the manufacture of shoe buttons in which an attaching loop is secured to and depends from the head of the button.
An objectand purpose of my invention consists in the provision of a button and attaching loop secured. thereto in such mannerthat the separation of the loop from the head is impossible without destruction of the button.
Further objects of the invention together with novel features of'construction will be apparent as understanding is had of the embodiment disclosed in the accompanying drawing, in which;
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a shoe button made in accordance with'my invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken through the head of the button illustrating the attachment of the. loop thereto. Fig. 3 is-a view similar to Fig. 2 of a slight modification in detail of construction; Fig. 4 is a view from beneath the button head shown in Fig. 3, previous to the attachment of the loop; and Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4 of the head of the button shown in Fig. 2.
Like reference characters refer to like drawing.
The head 1 of the button is formed of any 7 suitable material and on its underside is 7 surface of thehead 1 in this manner making provided with a downwardly projecting portion2which is adapted to be received within the button eyelet when the button is in use. From the lower end of projection 2 its surface curves outwardly and upwardly as indicated at 3 joining smoothly theouter the button. head which is of especial value in the matter of protecting the stitching which faces a button eyelet. A hole 4 is bored centrally through the head 1 and the loop is formed from a piece of wire bent Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed January 17, 1916. Serial No. 72,648.
into a loop at 6, the ends of the wire being brought together and inserted from underneath into the opening. In the modification shown in Figs. 2 and 5 a slot is cut in the underside of the projection 2 to receive the upper parts of the loop, this slot being of such depth that when the loop is properly seated therein, the upper endsfof the part 7 terminate short of the upper side of the button head 1. It will be noted that the outer surfaces of the wires of the loop continue smoothly from the surface of the part 2. A plug consisting of a lower cylindrical portion 8 integral with an upper conical portion 9 is inserted into the opening 4, the upper end thereof having been bored to receive the conical head 9, this plug at its lower end contacting at 10 with the upper end of the part 7. When so positioned the plugandthe ends of wire 7 arewelded together in any suitable manner, electric welding preferably used. When the plug is thus connected to the end'of the loop an exceptionally firm and sure connection of the loop to the head is provided. The ends of the loop and the plug necessarily must be pressed together and each will firmly engage against the material of the head and after the welding has been completed the shrinkage due to the cooling at the joint 10 draws the partsirnore firmly against the head and insures an especially tight and effective con nection.
A slight modification is illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4 in which the projection 2 is counterbored to form a conical opening 11 a distance within the outer edges of the projection 2, thereby leaving an annular shoulder 12 which will insure against any breaking or chipping off of the head which might occur if the bore ll was carried to the extreme outer edge of the plug 2. The loop 6 is formed with a shoulder 13 at each side to opening at one end, and a plug inserted into the opening at the other end connected with said ends of the loop, substantially as described.
2. A button comprised of a head having an opening therethrough, a loop formed from a piece of wire fashioned into a substantially circular loop vwith the ends of the wire brought together parallel to each other and inserted into one end of said opening, said circular loop being partially received within the button head, and a plug inserted into theopening at the opposite end connected with the ends of said wire, substantially as described.
8. A button comprised of a head having an opening therethrough with an enlargement thereto at each end, a piece of wire bent centrally into a substantially circular loop with the ends brought together and inserted into the opening from one end, the
loop being partially received within the enlargement at said endof the opening, and a plug provided with an enlarged head inserted into the opening at the other end, said plug and ends of the wire engaging and being welded together, substantially as de scribed.
4. A button comprised of a head having a projecting portion located centrally and on the underside of the head, the outer surface ofsaid portions curving upwardly and outwardly and forming a continuous curved surface with the remainder of the head, said head also being bored centrally from the upper to the lower side and the opening thus formed having a conical enlargement at each end, an annular shoulder on said projecting portion bordering the conical enlargement'of the-opening, a piece of wire formed centrally into a curved loop, then withfoppositely located shoulders adapted to'position under the said annular shoulders, then bent inwardly toward each other to follow. the sides of the conical enlarge.
ment the ends of the wire then lying in parallelism and inserted in the openingfrom one'end thereof, and a plug having a conically formed head inserted in the opposite 'endo'f the opening and seating in the conical enlargement thereof, said plug engaging with the ends of the wire and secured thereto, substant1ally asfldescrlbed.
5. A button composed of a head having an opening therethrough, a loop formed from apiece of wire having the ends thereof brought together and inserted into said opening at one end, and a plug inserted into the opening at the other end, said plug and ends of the loop being connected together within the head, substantiallyas described. '1
6. A button composed of a head having an opening therethrough, a loop formed of a piece of wire having the ends thereof brought together and inserted into said opening t one end and extending partially through the head, a plug inserted into the opening at the opposite end, and a permanent connection between the plug and the said wires of the loop, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affiX my signature.
