Specification of Letters Patent. 7 Patnted Feb. 22, 1921,

' Application filed June 4', 1920. SerialfNo. 386,450. I

To aZZ whom it may concern: I

Be it known that I, SAMUEL JASGUR, a

citizen of the United States, residing in the city of New Yorkycounty of Bronx, borough of Bronx and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Fasteners, of which the v 'ing together the two sides 'ofthe frontal a pair of trousers.

opening of trousers at the waist band, where the strain upon the fastener is considerable.

In order to meet the requirements of a fastener of this character, it must be cheap, simple in construction, readily and firmly attached to the fabric, must not have a tendency to tear the fabric and must be car pable of ease of operation in coupling and uncoupling.

There are two general groups of such fasteners, those which are sewed to the fabric and those having extended projections capable of passage through the fabric and then turned over to prevent their withdrawal from the fabric.

Sewed fasteners are obj ectionable as they soon become loosened from the fabric and those fasteners which are" attached to the fabric by means of ordinary tongues, or projections, tear the fabric under strain and become loosened therefrom.

The device of my invention overcomes all of these objectionable features and presents all of the advantages mentioned above.

In the accompanying drawings, repre: senting one form of the deVice-ofmy'invene tion, similar parts are designated by similar numerals. I

Figure 1 is an elevation of one form of my device as applied to the upper portion of Fig. 2 is'a section through the line 2--2 Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a section through the line 3-3 of Fig. 4 is a development of the device shown'in Fig. 1.

Fig. 5 is a view of Fig. 4 in the direction ofthearrow 5, 1

The particular form of my device, illus trated in the accompanying drawings, com- 3 diameter of the button 24.

prisesa sheet, onblank, of flexible material, as metal, composed of the two integral members 1O 11 capable of being foldedalong the line A-A, in order that the two

members

10 and 11 maybe superimposed one above the other.

The member 10 has the approximately circular opening 12 extended into the elongated opening 13, andthe member .11 has theapproximately circular opening 14 extended into the'elongated opening 15, the openings in the

members

10 and 11 being so situated with respect to each other that they will be in alinement When-the device is folded along the line AA.

The member 10 has the recesses, 16, 17 and 18 into which the

tongues

19, 20 and 21 of the member 11 may be respectively inserted I when the members 10' and 11 are in superimposed positon, the tongues being capable of being folded over the'member 10, when thus inserted, and acting as aloe king means.

The member 10 has an extended flange 22 aroundthe

openings

12, 13, corresponding to the shape thereof, the outer edge of which practically abuts upon the inner surface of the member 11, when the members'lO and 11 are in parallel positions with respect to each other.

The application of my device to fabrics and, especially, as a closing. means for the frontal opening of trousers. is as follows The device, with the

tongues

19, 20 and 21 in a practically right angled position'with respect to the plane of the member 11,

fabric 23 and parting through the recesses l 1'6, 17 and 18. The three tongues 19, 20' and 2]. are then bent over thus locking together the two

members

10 and 11."

The flange '22 ofthe member 10 thus The button 24:, fixedly attached to the fabric 25, may be inserted through the

openings

12 and 14 and theopening in the fabric 25 and will be drawn into

theopenings

13 and 15, the widths of whichare less than the abuts upon the member 11, forming abutton hole with metallic sides and edges.

It is to be noted thatthe folded endsof scope of'my invention as I prefer to use the means described for fastening my device to the fabric, but any other suitable means may be employed.

- I donot limit myself to the particular size, shape, number and arrangement or parts as; shown and described, all of which maybe Varied without. going beyond the shown, described and claimed.

1. In a fabric fastening device, in combination, a foldable blank, a plurality of openings within the blank capable of being placed in alinement with eachother when the blank is folded and a plurality of tongues carried by the blank capable of being extendedbeyond and folded: over the folded blank.

2; In a fabric fastening devicegin com bination, a foldable blank, a pluralit of openings within the blank capable of being; placed in alinement with each other When, the blank is folded, a flange surrounding one opening capable of practical abutment upon the folded blank and'a plurality of tongues carried by the blank capable of being extended beyond and folded over the folded blank.

8. In a fabric fastening device, in combination, a foldable blank, a plurality of openings within the blank capable of being placed in alinement with each other when the blank is folded, a plurality-of recesses in one portion of the blank and a plurality of tongues in the other portion ofthe blank capable of being extended through the recesses and folded over the first portion of the folded blank.

4:. In a fabric fastening device, in combination, a foldable blank, a plurality of openings within the blank capable of being placed in alinenient with each other when the blank is folded, a flange surrounding one opening capable of practical abutment upon the folded blank, a plurality of recesses inone portion of the blank and a plu rality of'tongues in the other portion ofthe blank capable of being extended through the recesses and folded over the first portion of thefolded blank.
