PROTECTIVE BINDING FOB, CQLLARS.

Substitute for application Serial No. 297,540, filed May 16, 1919.

This application filed August 19, 1921.

Serial No. 493,747.

T all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMEs SGHEVENELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Protective Bindings for Collars, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to ornamental bindings for collars, objects thereof being to perfeet the utility of such a binding in order that the set of a collar may not be altered; that the overlapping button hole extensions of the collar stand may be enclosed and thus 1- secure a perfect alignment of the corners of the collar; that the edges of the face plate of the binding may conform to the edge of the collar flap and that the proximate edges of the rear plates of a pair of bindings may be spaced to avoid pinching the neck of the wearer.

This application isa substitute for application Serial N 0. 297,540, filed May 16, 1919.

The invention will be understood by referonce to the accompanying drawings in which Figure l is a front elevation showing parts of a collar with a pair of bindings in place;

Figure 2 is a rear elevation of the same;

Figure 3 is a top plan perspective of the same;

Figure 4 is a perspective view of one of the bindings;

Figure 5 is a bottom plan view of said binding;

Figure 6 is a vertical View taken on the line 6-6 of Figure 1, and showing the collar flap and the adjacent parts of the bindg;

Figure 7 is a view showing the edges of the stand and flap of a collar with a binding applied thereto;

Figure 8 is a view of a blank of one design-from which a binding may be made;

Figure 9 is a front elevation of a right side binding;

Figure 10 is a rear end view of said bind- 111 Figure 11 is a rear View of right side binding;

Figure 12 is a front end view of said bind ing;

Figure 13 is a top plan view of said binding;

Figure 14 is a sectional view taken on the line 141- 1 of Figure 12;

Figure 15 is a similar view taken on the line 1515 of Figure 9;

Figure 16 is a sectional View taken on the line 16-16 of Figure 9.

The binding 1 is preferably made from a blank which is twice folded to produce the three parts of said binding, these parts being the stand flange 2, the face plate 3, and the flap flange 4.

The stand flange 2 and the face plate 3 are united by a diverging fold 5, the object of which is to make ample room between said flange and said face plate for the reception of the overlapping stands of a collar, the thick edges of the collar flap where it joins into the stand of the collar, and the knot of a necktie.

The fold between the face plate 3 and the flap flange 4., is a normal fold which is neither convergent nor divergent.

When the blank is folded on the dotted lines shown in the drawing, the stand flange 2, the face plate 3, and the flap flange 4:, will be brought into proper spaced relation to each other, the space between the stand flange and the flap flange being ada ted to receive the stand and a small portion of the curved fold of a collar, and the space between the flap flange and the face plate being adapted to receive the flap of the collar.

The blank is provided with a notch 7 which I term a clearance notch because it separates the folds 5 and 6 and admits of their formation without interference one with another. The edge 8 of this notch is aligned so with one side of the fold 6, the object being to cause the anterior edge of the fold 5 to coincide with the edge and conceal the face of the collar flap.

The flap flange 4 is provided at its top i with a flange 9 which is termed a crease flange because it extends u ward into the crease of a collar, as shown. This crease flange is adapted to compress the fabric at the fold of the collar between it and the loo inner wall of the diverging fold 5 of the binding, to thereby hold the binding in place.

use, and avoids pinching the neck of the wearer.

The edges of the corner of a collar are held in alignment by the confining influence of the stand flange which embraces the inside extended portion of the opposite collar stand. 1

The shape of the blank from which the binding is made should be varied so that the resultant binding accords with the standard design of the collar to which the binding is to be applied. 7

The flap flange at is slightly curved as at 13 to deflect the tip of said flange so that it ma 1 not interfere with the necktie.

laving thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

1. An ornamental binding for collars, comprising a stand flange, a spaced face plate eonstituing a continuation of said stand flange, a spaced flap flange constituting a continuation of said face plate and having a crease flange extending upward into the space between said stand flange and said face plate and a guide adjacent said crease flange.

2. An ornamental binding for collars comprismg a stand flange, a face plate and a.

flap flange, said flap flange being curved toward said face plate. and extending between said stand flange and said face plate and having its rear side extending outwardly and upwardly at an. incline from the rear side or edge of the face plate and formed at its upper. and rear side corner with a guide. 7

3. In an ornamental binding for collars, a

stand flange, a spaced face plate connected to the stand flange, a flap flange connected to the face plate and having its upper side formed with a crease flange, and a rounded guide on the flap flange extending outwardly from the upper and inner end of the flap flange.

f. An ornamental binding for collars, including an outer memberpan inner member spaced'from the outer member, a connection between the upper sides of the members, a collar-flap engaging member carried by the outer member and having its ends cutaway and rounded to form a crease-engaging part and further having a rounded guide disposed. below't-he top of said crease-engaging part andpro-jecting rearwardlyof the latter.

5. An ornamental binding for collars, in

eluding an outer member, an inner member spaced from the outer member, a connec-' signed my
