UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IsAAO E. EATON, or BROOKLYN, NEw YORK, AssieNoE To HIMsELE AND EDWIN BOLIIHO, OF SAME PLAGE.
- IMPROVEMENT |N THE MEANS FOR FAsTENlNe BUTTONS.
Specification formingpart of Letters Patent No. 143,891, wdated October 21, 1873 application filed March 24, 1873.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, ISAAC F. EATON, of
Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented an Improved Means for Fastening Buttons, of which the following is a specication:
This inventlon consists in the combination 4of a button having its shank flattened parallel or approximately parallel with its face, and
a metallic ribbon fitting in a gullet formed for its reception in the boot, shoe, or other article to which the button is to be attached, whereby projections are obviated, and great facility is afforded for attaching the buttons and renewing them whenever necessary; and, moreover,
' should the article to which the buttons are fastened t too tightly at any point, the adja cent buttons may be removed and others having longer shanks may be substituted for them to relieve the tightness.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure l is a perspective view of a shoe having its buttons fastened by means of my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view, showing more particularly the mode of fastening the buttons; and Fig.
3 is a perspective view of one of the buttons there is formed a gullet, c, by doubling over or sewing two pieces of leather together. In the outer sides of this gullet, at regular intervals, are slitsrs, through which the loops of the button-Shanks are inserted into it. A metallic ribbon, C, thin enough to be pliant, is inserted into this gullet from the outer end, and is threaded through the loops of the butt-ons.
Though shown in connection lwith a shoe, this invention is applicable to all garments and articles on which buttons are used.
By this means the buttons are very securely fastened to the shoe or garment, and withal can be readily detached, when desirable, to renew them. All projections on the inside of a garment are obviated, so that should it fit ever so tight the person will not be affected unpleasantly by the buttons. Moreover, should it be desirable to let out a garment at any point, the buttons maybe removed, and others with longer shanks be substituted for them.
The metallic ribbon may easily be bent to conform to the curved edge of a garment when ever necessary.
What I claim as my invention is The combination of the button having its shank ilattened parallel, or approximately parallel, to its face, and the metallic ribbon, substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
ISAAC F. EATON.
