Description
e s-mm"- To all'wkom it may ,cmem: "Be it known-that I, CHARLns E; Rown, citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county ofMontgomery and State of'Ohio, have invented certain new and useful' Improvements in Collar-Buttons; and I do 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 itappertains to make and" use the same, reference being had tothe accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures ofrefere'nce marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates 'to' new and useful improvements collar buttons. The object of theinvention is to provide a collar button which possesses several advantages not heretofore found in collar buttons.
. F m improved collar buttonhas the advantage of serving as a guide or support for holding the front parts of the collar in alinement, that is to say, all of the button holes, to-Wit, those in the shirt neckband and those in the collar lie one over the other, thereby preventing. one or the other side of the collar from climbing or moving up when the wearer moves his shoulders or neck. Sec
ondly, my improved collar button serves to prevent a collar from buckling up or becoming loosened when the ends of the tie are drawn together through the collar. The collar is prevented from slipping off of the button in drawing the tie.
My improved collar button also serves to hold the collar straight. That is to say, the button is of a character that keeps the collar in a horizontal alinement, and any drawing or pulling upon the necktie will not loosen the ends of the collar from the button. Moreover, it is much easier to draw the tie through the collar and thus make a neattie by the use of my improved collar button. Another advantage due to my improved collar button lies in the fact that it avoids tearing out of the button-holes. This is due to the fact that the collar is easily united and detached from the button without stretching the button-holes unnecessarily. All of these advantages are due to the construction of the shank of the button and the head proper, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
Preceding a more detailed description of the invention, reference is made to the accompanying drawings,'of which Figure 1 is a front elevation of a collar, the ends of upper or longer lip 3 and collar, the reverse spe cifieation of Letters Patent. Patnted Ndyr, 13, 1917, Appl ication filed February 17, 1917; s =;r m; 9,350. A
which are united by means my ir'npro'ved": collar button; Fig.2 is an enlarged perspec- 1 elevation thereof; Fig. 6
strip. of sheet metal, which may be either silver'or goldfor'any of the baser metals or Fig. 7 is another alloys, plated with themore precious metals. I
As shown in Fig. upon itself to format base 1, a shank 2,'and ahead orbutton 3 and 4. The collar button is formed into this shape by suitable dies, and as shown in' portions of the overlapping strip Fig. .2, the forming the base firmly together. thestrip are not placed in contactin the for- 1 are pressed and united mation of the button but'there is provided an 5 between the portions of intervening space 2 thisstripof metal is bent portion consisting of lips In Fig. 6 the portions of the metal forming the base 1. In other respects the collar button is identically the.
same as illustrated in Figs. 2 and 6, the same being formed by the use of dies acting upon the metal. The shank 2 is essentially of a broad, flat shape, while the 4 are rounded to facilitate the ready buttoning and unbuttoning of the collar.
In placing the button in position, the upper lip 3 is first inserted in the buttonholes in the shirt neckband and the lower lip 4 is then passed through said button holes. The collar is then buttoned over the then slipped over the lower or short lip 4. In removing the place. The ends of the collar are first slipped over the lower or shorter lip 4 and the said ends of the collar are then slipped from the upper lip 3 of the button.. Owin to the shape of the lips 3 and 4 the buttonholes are not stretched, and any stiffness of the ends of the collar around the buttonholes does not interfere with a ready buttoning or unbuttoning of the collar. Another advantage due to the shape and size of the lips 3 and 4 resides in the fact that the fabric of the collar surrounding the buttonholes is preserved and is not broken or torn, as is usually the case with many forms of collar buttons. The front ends of the collar When'buttoned lie in alinement. All of the of this operation takes button lips 3 and i button-holes, including those in the neck shirt band lie one over the other in alinement. This position is maintained by reason of the broad flat shank 2 which occupies substantially the width of the button-holes. The front of the collar is prevented from being pushed up, and, moreover, the stifiening effect imparted to the front of the collar by the shank 2 enables the collar to be worn with much comfort.
My improved collar button may also be used with equal facility at the back, thereby holding the collar both in the rear and front in true position around the neck. In Fig. 7 I have shown a slightly modified form of my improved collar button, consisting of a round base 6 and a head 7. In this form of button the same features of advantage reside, for example, the broad, flat shank and the curved upper and lower edges of the insertible end 7 of the button. It is possible to make the button in either way, that is to say, the shank 2 may be made of a solid thickness of metal, or it may be made by bending the metal upon itself and uniting it by solder and finishing it off in the usual way. I wish to lay emphasis on the lips 3 and l and their manner of arrangement, one being made shorter than the other. This feature facilitates the attachment or detachment of the collar and renders unnecessary the stretching of the button-holes. These features in connection with the broad, flat shank of the button add to the advantages Copies of this patent may be obtained for by preventing the collar from riding up or out of alinement, all as has been hereinbefore specified. It will be readily seen and understood that the ends of the collar can not turn when the button-holes are occupied by this broad flat shank, and owing to the further fact that the length of the buttonholes is substantially occupied by this fiat shank, any undue horizontal movement of the ends of the collar is prevented.
Having described my invention, I claim: 1. A collar button comprising a base portion, a flat broad-faced shank extending from said base portion, and a head united to said shank, said head being of substan tially oval form and the greatest diameter of which coincides with the width of the shank, said head having a greater portion of its area on one side of the shank, substantially as specified.
As a new article of manufacture, a collar button formed of a single piece of metal bent and united to provide a base portion 1, a broad shank 2, and lips 3 and 42 one of said lips being reduced in size as compared to the other, and both of said lips uniting to form a substantially oval shaped head, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature, in presence of a witness.
