To all whom t may concern/:
Be it known 7that ADoLrH J. Gn'EGoRYa citizen ofthe United States, residing at Denbigh, inthe county of McI-Ienryand State of ANorth Dakota, `hars invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buttion. Y y
:,'Ihis linvention relates to buttons 4and tons, of which thev following is a specifica particularlyjto separable buttons of a type wherein thehead or body of'thewbuttonis i vice applied to the end of the screw and which cooperates with the button to attach it to the garment or other fabric,
While I am aware of the fact that sepa-y rable buttons have been heretofore manufactured, those with which I am familiar have been to a large extenty more or less complicated in structure, and in a number of instances were so constructed thatthey would easily be pulled apart when 'subjected tov abnormal pressure while others when once assembled could not readily be taken apart except by undue exertion,
My invention is directed 4toward a separable button which when once applied cannot accidentally come apart, but which may by the application of a simple tool be disassembled and reused as often as necessary and practically indefinitely in view of the fact that the parts are of sturdy con struction and not liable to break.
Further, the particular locking device for the button attaching means is so arranged that it is neither unsightly nor in a position to interfere'with the application of the button through the button-hole, be-l ing disposed withina recess in the button face, lwhich latter therefore remains free and unobstructed.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate preferred embodiments of my in vention,
Figure 1 is a top plan view of my separable button;
Figure 2 is a side elevation thereof;
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional View of the bi1-1513911 9.1.1 the line 3--3 of Figure l;
lFigure 4 is an end view vof a cuff buttonv of a separable screw type ;l f Y Figure 5 is a bottom plan view of a collar button of the separable screw-type;- v Figure 6V aside elevation of the type Vof curifbutton shown in Figure 4, the screw connection'beingshown in section; and
Figure 7 is aside elevation ofthe type of collar button shown lin Figure 5, -the screw connection being shownin section. Referring now -more particularly tothe several figures of the drawing by numerals ,v of reference, 2 indicates generally a ibutton,
the body ofl which I preferto construct in Ithe-form ofa metal shell comprising a base portion 4, and a top member 6, spaced apart and joined at their peripheries at the ypoint 8 defining thereby a recess 10.
The base portion 4 is provided with a depending centrally located stud or shank 12, while the top member 6 is provided with ya central and preferably circular aperture 14 to permit access to the interior ofthe shell for purposes to be presently described.
For the purpose of separably attaching the button to a garment or other fabric 16,
I provide the stud or shank 12 with an aXial threaded opening to receive the threaded stem 18 ofa screw, the peripherally knurled head 20 of which is smooth on its inner face and cooperates with the smooth opposed face of the stud or shank to grip the fabric 16 when the screw is turned home, the end of the screw .being pointed as at 22to enf *i able it to puncture or penetrate the fabric.
.To the end that the button and thel attaching screw may not be relatively` rotatable or displaced, I provide a locking means for the'screw, this comprising a nut 24 preferably of the wing vtype which is threaded on the' free end of the screw' 18,
being inserted through the aperturev 14 pro-v vided for the p urpose. The recess 10 there# fore securely houses the nut 24 which after being screwed home is free of contact with anything which might tend to loosen or displace it. Furthermore, by constructing the body of the button in the formof a shell, the article is materially lightened in weight and the cost of material considerably reduced.
In Figures 4 and 6 I have illustrated in end and side elevation, a separable cuil' button 40, the link 42 of which is formed in vrtwo sections, the adjoining ends of which,
are provided respectively with a screw and threaded. soclret connection fl in Figures 5 and 7 separable collar button 4S, the shank 50 ot which is formed in two sections, and. joined by a screw and socket connection 52 as in the case ott the cuff button. y
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desireto protect by Letters Patent is: s
l. A separable button of the character described, comprising a buttonV member provided with a facial recess, a stud formed integral with and depending from the bottom face of said button and provided with an axial threaded bore, a fastening member for said button comprising` a screw adapted to pass through said threaded bore and having an external operating head, and a lock nut secured on the inner end of said screw and disposed wholly within said reture.

2. A separable button of the character l have shown ar .threaded vbore and naaazee described, comprising a button body nicmber having spaced. top and bottom plates se cured together at their peripheral edges to provide a hollow structure, said upper plate being provided with a central opening communicating with. the interior of said button body member, a stud depending from the lower face of said bottom plate and having an axially threaded bore, a button attaching screw adapted to pass vthrough said extend into the interior of said hollow button, a locking wing-nut adapted to be passed opening in said top plate and be secured on the inner end of said screw, said nut being wholly disposed within the hollow body loi said button, and said screw having an enlarged operating and garment clamping heal cooperating with the outer face of said stu In testimony whereof I aix my signa- AnoLrH J; eimeoar.k
