COLLAR.
Application led July 5, 1921. lSerial No. 482,378.
` of a collar button at the medial or back portion thereof which is ordinarily used for preventing the collar from rising upon the wearers neck. This is acompnshed by providing the collar with a tongue which is adapted to engage the collar band of a shirt, the tongue being formed from the collar in a manner that there will be no possibility of its engaging with the neck tieto prevent it from sliding easily around the collar for adj ustments.
Another important object of the invention is to provide means for preventing the tongue from tearing away from the collar.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of the application and wherein like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the several views,
Figure 1 is a transverse section of a well known type of collar having its back portion provided with my invention.
Figure 2 is a transverse vertical section through a modification of the invention.
Figure 3 is a transverse horizontal section through the invention-taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2, and
Figure 4 is a transverse vertical section showing the reinforcing means for the collar.
Referring now more particularly to the drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of the invention, the numeral 5 designates the back portion of a neck band of an ordinary shirt and which is provided with a downwardly opening pocket 6 formed by doubling the neck band. The outer portion o-f the doubled neck band at the medial portion thereof is ordinarily provided with a button hole for the reception of a collar button usually employed for holding the back of the collar in engagement with the neck band. However, when my improved collar is used in connection with the pocket 6, no button hole nor button is necessary.
To take the place of the ordinary button and button hole, I provide the medial portion of the inner fold 7 of a collar 8 with a tongue 9. This tongue is provided by slitting or cutting the inner fold 7 as shown at 10 in Figure 1 in a semi-circular line. The ends of the incision are arranged adj acent the lower edge of the inner fold 7 of the collar so that the relative lower portion of the tongue will be secured to the fold and its relative upper end will be free. Consequently, it may be said that the tongue 9 extends upwardly toward the top folded edge of the collar.
ln order to prevent the'edges of the incision from raveling and the tongue from being torn from the collar, the edges of the incision areworked in button hole fashion as indicated in Figure 1 As clearly shown in Figure Il and Figure l, the rear portion of t he inner fold 7 around the tongue, is provided with an eXtra ply of cloth 11 so that this portion of the collar may receive more starch for reinforcing the same and rendering the tongue stiffer. This ply of cloth may be easily in serted in the collar so that it will not show or rub the neck of the wearer and is of course also slitted when the tongue is being provided in the collar. ln order to make doubly sure that the tongue will not be torn from the collar, the'lower free edge of the inner fold 7 at the medial portion thereof. is provided with a reinforcing strip 12 of any suitable material7 this'Y strip being in serted between the plies of the collar as best seen in Figure 4. It will also be noted that the strip 12 is arranged between the free edge of the inner fold and the incision, and that the ends of incision extend into the strip so that the tongue can not be torn from the collar.
In use, a cravat is associated with the collar in the well known manner after which the collar is placed around the neck so that the tongue 9 is disposed adjacent the pocket 6 in the neck band. Then, with one hand the operator forces the tongue 9 inwardly so that it may be slipped up under the pocket 6. In the present instance, the free edge of the tongue is shown as being semicircular in configuration so that no corners will be presented which would prevent the tongue from slipping easily into place. After the collar has been thus adjusted, the collar button in the free ends of the neck band is passed through the button holes in the free ends of the collar in the well known manner after which the cravat is tied in place. When this has been'acooniplished, it will be. seen that it will be impossible for the beck of the collar to slip upwardly on the neel; since the tree end of the tongue will abut the folded portion ot the neel; band. Furthermore, since the rear portion of the collar and the tongue are stiti'ened, the collar will not become bent or runipied from constant use. A good feature of the collar is that the eravat inay be easily adjusted since there is no Collar button in the back of the collar on which the eravat can catch.
The foregoing description and aeeonr panying drawings have reterenee to what might be considered to be the approved or preferred foi-in of rny invention. desire it to beA understood that I may inalte suoli changes in the construction, combination and arrangemento parts, material, di1nension, ete. as may prove expedient and tall within the scope ot the appended claiin.
Having thus described niy invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A collar consisting of a piece ot material folded upon itself to torni inner and outer tolds, said inner told having an extra ply of material on a portion of its inner tace, said inner Ytold and eXtra ply being provided with an incision therein to provide an upwardly extending tongue, the opposite ends of the incision being` arranged adjacent the lower edge of the inner told, a relatively narrow reinforcing strip arranged along the lower edge of the inner told between the saine and the extra ply of material to forni a ridge between the outer told and said extra ply and 'to retain the part of the extra ply above the strip spaced troni the outer told ot the collar when the saine is in use7 said reinforcing strip having eut-out portions to align and communicate with the ends of the incision, and stitching` around the incision and the cut-out portions and extending through the reinforcing strip, the inner told and the extra ply of material.
