Application=fi1ed'December 13, 1916. Serial'No. 136,661.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, I/VILBURM. DYnR, a citizen of the United States, residing. at Perry, in the countyof' Perry and State of Arkansas, have invented certainnew and useful Improvements in- N ecktieAdjusters; and I do hereby declare the 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 use the same. 7
This invention relates to improvements in necktie adjusters.
The object of this invention is the provision of a device which is especially adapted to be placed between the inner and outer plies of a turned down collar and secured to the inner plies thus providing an ample space for a tie when placed between the plies of a collar permitting the free sliding of the tie and obviating the binding or wear upon a tie due to the pulling and stretching action when adjusting the same in a collar.
A still further object of this invention is the provision of an elastic member which is provided with hooks, which hooks are adapted to engage loops which are secured to the inner ply thus positioning the same between the inner and outer plies of a turn down collar and the positioning of the elastic member may be easily and quickly accomplished.
A still further object of this invention is the provision of a tie adjuster of this character which will be simple, practical, and comparatively inexpensive in construction and one that can be manufactured and sold at a low cost.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in the novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described and set forth in the claim hereto appended.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved tie adjuster applied to the inner ply of a turned down collar with the collar in open position to illustrate the manner in which the tie adjuster is applied.
Fig. 2 is an elevation partly broken away illustrating the tie adjuster in position.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view illustrating the manner in which the tie adjuster spaces the inner and outer plies of the collar.
Fig. 4: is: a perspective view of one book which is carried by the spacing member.
up into the fold of Like numerals of reference designate corresponding-parts in all the figures of the drawings.
Referring more particularly to the :drawings, the numeral 1 designates a -turned down collar of the usual construction which consists of anouter ply: 2 and inner pl 3, and the loops at the opposite ends of the inner ply 3 designated by' the numerals 5 and 6. The inner ply 3 is provided on its outer faces with a pair of vertically arranged loops 7 which loops are secured by their ends with suitable stitches or the like and are arranged at a relatively spaced distance apart, and centrally between the side longitudinal edges of the inner ply as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings.
My improved tie adjuster comprises in its construction an elongated elastic body 8 which is preferably circular in cross section, and it is to be understood that any other design or desired shape may be resorted to. The elastic body 8 is provided at each of its ends with a connecting hook 9, which connecting hooks are formed of wire.
The connecting hooks 9 are each formed of a single piece of wire looped centrally of its ends as at 10 to provide the parallel legs 11 which are in abutting engagement with one another as clearly shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings. The ends of the legs 11 are curved outwardly as at 12 in opposite directions and are extended rearwardly in the direction of the loop in spaced parallel relation forming the connecting legs 13. The ends of the connecting legs are turned inwardly toward one another as at 14, and abut each other as at 15 to provide insertion members which are adapted to be inserted under the loops 7 forcing the loops into-the curved portion 12 thus securing the elastic member to the inner ply 3 of the collar.
The loops 7 may be secured at any desired height upon the ply 3 and as illustrated is secured substantially intermediate the opposite side longitudinal edges, but as explained they can be secured nearer the point of connection. of the ply 3 with the outer ply 2, thus raising the elastic member the collar should it be so desired.
In use, the ends 14 of the hooks 9 are inserted under the loops 7 having their loops extending toward one another, the elastic 'member has each of its ends connected to one loop of the hooks 9,-when the device is in its assembled position.
It being understood that the loops 9 project beyond the ends 14 thus preventing a necktie inserted between the inner and outer ply of a turned down collar from catching under the hooks and retarding the free slid- I ing movement.
- What is'claimed is: r
, The combination, a turned down collar, flexible loops secured to the inner side of the. inner :ply of the turned down collar adjacent each end thereof, an elastic body, one piece hooks looped at their medial portions to provide attaching loops which are secured ,Oopiesoi this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the to the ends of the body, the ends of the loops bent back upon themselves in the direction of the attaching loops and having their free ends turned in the direction of each other to provide insertion members for the securing of the hooks under the loops and positioning the elastic body between the folds of the collar, as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
