OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
ADJUSTABLE AND INTEBCHANGEABLE CRAVAT AND BOW.
Application filed January 13, 1919. Serial No. 270,786.
To all 'w/wm it may vomxcrn:
lie it known that I, NAHUM Junson Buses, S12, a. citizen of the United States, and a resident of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Adjustable and Interchangeable Cravats and Bows, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification.
This invention relates to neck-wear and has for its object the construction of improved means for attaching a bow or other tie to a collar, and especially to an improved form of cravat which can be interchanged with different forms and types of bows and ties; which will stay in place and neither ride up to the top of the collar or slip about the neck, nor become accidentally unfastened; and which will, moreover, retain the collar more securely upon the shirt-band, and will not become wilted by perspiration.
To this end I provide a band of some suitable resistant material, as sheet metal, celluloid, fiberboard or the like; treat it to correspond in appearance with the bow or other tie to be worn, and provide the same with looking Clasps for fastening it, the tie and the collar to the shirt band.
In the drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cravat, showing it, a bow and a collar secured together. Fig. 2 is a perspective view from the rear of the improved cravat. Fig. 3 is a face view of a plate or shield by means of which a bow or the like is attached to a turn-over collar. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a wear-resisting shield for certain sections of the cravat. Fig. 5 is a diagrammatic plan View of the front sections of a shirt-band, collar and the cravat. Fig. 6 is a similar view of the rear sections of the same. Fig. 7 is a cross section on a slightly enlarged scale of the cravat and a wearresisting device. Fig. 8 is a cross section of an end portion of the cravat showing the movable locking clasp.
Referring first to Fig. 2, the reference numeral 1 designates a length of resistant material, as sheet metal, celluloid, fiberboard or the like, bent to a substantially circular formation, and covered with a fabric to match the bow or other tie to be employed therewith, or suitably lithogra hed or otherwise made to resemble such fa ric.
For enabling the ends of the cravat 1 to Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 1, 1919.
be adjustably fastened about the collar at the hack of the neck, one of the ends is formed with a plurality of eyes 2, and the other end with a longitudinally disposed slot 3 within which is movably located a locking clasp 4. As shown in Fig. 8, this locking clasp is frictionally held in place within the slot 3 by a washer 5, adapted by its gripping pressure to retain the clasp at any desired point in the slot.
A similar locking clasp 12 is put through the hole of the shirt-band in front, and through the two button holes of the super posed collar-ends, and then through the eye 13 of the cravat into a socket member 14 attached permanently to the bow 15, as shown in Fig. 6.
It is, as I have noticed, the sides of a eravat in the vicinity of the wearers cars, which become the most quickly worn. To reduce such wear, I provide two slidable guards or shields 16, one for each side, as shown in Fig. 1. Each shield consists of a plate of resistant material, bent nearly together along its center line, and curved to coincide with the curvature of the cravat, as in F ig. 4. Through the cravat at each side is a longitudinally arranged slot 17 which is covered by the shield applied there over, and through which and the shield passes a locking clasp 19, as shown in Fi and which furnishes a friction grip su cient to retain the shield at any desired point of the cravat within the limits of the slot. While the shields 16 are illustrated as inclosing the under edge of the cravat, I do not restrict myself thereto, as they may be applied over the top edge by having them change sides.
Whenever any part of a shield 16 shows signs of wear, it is forcibly slid a short distance along the cravat to present a fresh section at the former point of wear.
For turn-down collars, with which cravats are not ordinarly used, I provide a shield-shaped plate 20 formed with an eye 21 near its upper edge, through which and the button hole of the shirt-band and the two button holes of the collar the locking clasp 12 is introduced as before. 7
Attached as above described, the collar is held securely in place, there is no elastic cord to break or stretch, and no catch to slip ofi, the cravat will not become limp or wrinkled, neither it nor the collar can get accidentally unfastened, and neither is there danger of the bows slipping out of place or beeoming lost.
In case the cravat 1 and the plate 20 are Covered with fabric, it is well to rein'loree the eyes 2. '13 and 21 by means of eyelets 22 in order to preserve the fabric from Wear.
\Vhat I claim is:
1. An adjustable and interehangeable cravat comprising a length of thin resistant material curved to retain a normally eireular forni, having a plurality of eyes at one end and an elongated slot at its other end, and a locking clasp held friction tight in said slot to be capable of being forcibly slid to any part thereof, and adapted to be engaged with any one of said eyes, whereby the eravat can be accurately adjusted to snugly lit any one of a Wide range of different sized eollars.
2. An adj ustable and interchangeable era vat eomprising a length of thin resistant material COVUI'Qd with a fabric and curved to retain a normally circular form, having a plurality of eyes at one end and a longitudinally elongated slot at its other end, an
elongated metallic eyelet for said slot and circular eyelets for said eyes, and a locking clasp held friction tight in said elongated eyelet and adapted to be engaged with any one of said eyelets.
3. An adjustable and interehangeable cravat comprising a lei'lgth of thin resistant material curved. to a circular form and covered with a fabric and having longitudinally disposed slots in opposite sides, and a shield having means adjustahly engaging each slot.
4. An adjustable and interchangeable eravat comprising a length of thin resistant material having an eye through it, a bow having a socket member, and a locking clasp constructed to be introduced through said eye, through button holes of a shirt and a eollar With which the same is used, and into forcible engagen'lent with said soeket inelnher.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing llUlflltlOl], 1 have hereunto set my hand this 30th day of December, 1918.
