HOOK AND EYE TAPE.
Application filed January 22, 1921, Serial No. 439,226. Renewed July 28, 1922. Serial No. 578,270.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALEXANDER MoD'. HEss, a citizen of the United States, residing at borough of Queens, city of New York, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hook and Eye Tape, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to hook and eye tapes in which a plurality of hooks and eyes are secured to strips 0 tape ready to be sewed to a garment and it is my object to produce tapes in which the hooks and eyes will be secured thereto in such manner that they will not pull out or tear the tape or stitching and in which a minimum of sewinglwill be required to produce this result. itherto such tapes have been made by sewing two or more strips of tape together in such manner as to leave pockets in which the hooks and eyes have been inserted and by riveting the hooks and eyes to the tapes. The sewed tapes have been structurally weak as the strain has always been against the stitching which frequently gave way or else tore the body of the tape. The riveting was expensive and slow in operation and as the rivets frequently pulled out of the tape under strains it was unsatisfactory.
I have overcome these defects and reduced the cost of production due to the saving in labor and material in the manner illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a face view of my base tape; Fig. 2 a face view of a tape carrying the hook member; Fig. 3 a face view of a tape carrying the eye members; and Fig. 4 a sectional view through the tapes with a hook and eye in engagement.
My hook and eye tape comprises a base fabric tape 1 having the spaced, longitudinal slots 2, 2 woven therein with reinforced edges and in alinement as shown in Fig. 1. A second, and preferably narrower, tape 3 is then sewed at its edge to the base tape the line of stitching 4 being substantially alined with the slots 2, 2.
The hooks 5 and eyes 6 are then inserted through the slots 2, 2 with their engaging ends projecting above the base tape and their rear, or base, ends lying between the two plies of tape 1 and 3.
The complete hook and eye tapes may then be sewed to a garment by stitching through the two tapes 1 and 3 as indicated at 7 and 8.
By this construction the attachment of the hooks and eyes to the tape is much stronger than in the ordinary hook and eye tape and the tendency to tear out is reduced to a minimum. The manufacture of the tape requires but one line of sewing and no folded edges and the bases of the hooks and eyes are completely covered and protected. After the tapes have been sewed to the garment the bases of the hooks and eyes lie in a closed pocket between the two lines of stitching and cannot be accidentally displaced.
hen the slots are woven at about the central line of the base tape as shown in the drawings the single thickness of base tape in front of the line of hooks and eyes forms a flap which extends under and over the hooks and eyes so that the danger of accidentally catching anything in them is obviated.
I claim:-
Hook and eye tape comprising a base tape provided with a plurality of alined, longitudinal slots woven therein at a distance from the edge, a second tape, narrower than the base tape sewed thereto at its edge, the line of stitching being substantially in alinement with the slots, and one member of a hook and eye extending through each slot with its base between the two plies of tape and its engaging end above the base tape, the portion of the base tape in front of the hook and eye member forming a protecting flap when the two members are engaged.
In testimony whereof I have afiixed my signature.
