' HERBERT E. FISK, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
TIE sroorl.
Application filed September 11, 1924. sa e No. 737,179.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l,= HERBERT E. FIsK, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, UnitedStates of America, have invented certain new and useful linproveinentsin Tie Spools, of which the following,'taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, is a specification.
This invention has for its object the provision of a simple form of spool or holder upon which a scarf or necktie may be wound when not in use, in order to maintain the form, shape, and size of the article and to place the same under stretching tension in order to eliminate wrinkles and restore the article to its original smoothness after use thereof, thus maintaining the characteristics of the materials used in the manufacture of such articles.
Such a device of an effective character is a great desideratum because of the increased cost of well designed and manufactured scarfs, which are a generally accepted, necessary accessory of dress. The improved appliance hereinafter illustrated and de cribed embodies the structure essential to carrying into effect the above re-. quirements, and is free from objections and disadvantages to which earlier devices of.
this character have been subject by reason of their complicated construction, ungain- 1y appearance and inelncient operation.
The various features of my invention will be illustrated and described fully in thes and SPGCll'lCtLtlOll',
accompanying dra win and pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the drawings Figure l is aview in side elevation of a tie spool in the construction of which my improvements have been embodied.
Figure 2 is a view thereof in elevation looking from left to right, and
Figure 3 is a similar elevation looking from right to left.
Figure at is a transverse section on. the line i -7 c of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a perspective, upon a smaller scale, showing the device in use witha scarf wound thereupon.
In the illustrated embodiment I have shown a tie spool comprising a bifurcated member 1., preferably formed as an integral structure of some such material of attractive appearance as wood, preferably white ash or maple, or bakelite, ivory, or bone,
having a headQ from" which extends resilient blades 3'and 4, preferably round euteriorly, and formed with a slight spring or arch as indicated at 5 to afford sufficient space therebetween for reception of a portion of the scarf, tie or similar article to be wound thereon, it being understood that the appliance may be used for lace, ribbons, or in general in any field for which it is adapted by the nature of my nnprovelnents.
I prefer to form the ends of the blades somewhat as shown at 6 and 7 respectively,
with beveled portions 8 to facilitate introduction of the article to be supported.
In operation the tie spool is heldin one hand by the head or grip 2 and the article to be supported, as for example the scarf 9 shown in Figure 5, is inserted edgewise between the ends 6 and 7 until the forward edge of the he or scarf has reached the most inwardly end 10 of the opening hetween the prongs or-blades, the tie resting flatly tl'ierebetween.
Then the scarf is pulled until one of its ends. is flush with the side of the opening and the operator then presses the blades between the thumb and forefinger until the.
inside surfaces of the blades are in contactwith both surfaces of the scarf, thus gripping the scarf firmly but without damage thereto, owing to the manner in which the surfaces are designed to contact with the scarf.
Then the user begins to wind the scarf erahly placed thereon as indicated at 11,
and the scarf is subjected to a yielding tension, due to the expansion of the blades therewithin, sufficient to eliminate wrinkles and crevices, and to restore the original form and shape of the scarf, a notable advantage of the appliance being that when used diligently with a new scarf, the appliance prevents the formation of permanent wrinkles and thus retains the fresh appearance of the scarf.
The device thus used may be placed in or elsewhere, occupying but little space, and presenting an attractive appearance, a d when the scarf is desired :l'or use it may be removed readily from the appliance by a reversal of the above described operation.
Having illustrated and described my invention and suitable means for carrying the same into effect, it will be understood that I do not limit myself to the specific materials and structure specified, nor in general otherwise than as set forth in the claim read in connection with this specification.
I claim A holder for scarfs and the like comprising a bifurcated member having suba drawer, traveling ba stantially parallel blades presenting toward each other broad surfaces, one of said blades being arched in the direction of its length, and adapted to receive therebetween a portion of a scarf or similar article the remainder of which is wound peripherally about said blades in such a manner as to place the same under tension, and in combination therewith means to maintain said tension and to prevent slippage of the portions of said article .upon each other under the expansive strain of the aforesaid blades.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification.
HERBERT E. FISK.
