OTTO VETNSTEIN, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO STANDARD NECKWEAR COMEANY, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, A CORPORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS,
NEOKTIE AND METHOD OF 'MAKING THE SAME.
Application filed November 17, Y1926.
This invention relates to a new improvement in bow neclrties and in methods ,of making up bow neckties.
One feat-ure of the invention pertains to a bow neclrtie which closely simulates in .ap-
pearance bow neclrties which are tied by hand andthose which are of the better grade ot ready-tied neclrtiesl, but whichis distinctive in that a veryv substantial saving in goods is effected without detracting from the solid and compact appearance ot the tie.
Another feature or the invention is the provision of a bow neclrtie having the outward appearance or' at least three or tour folds or layers Hof material but which throughout mostot its length is formed ot' only two walls or main body portions from top to bottom.
Another teature or the invention .is the manner in which the end portions are used to simulate folds of goods and at the same time these portions serve to stiften the ends of the tie and thus to maintain its shape.
One particularly important phase of the invention relates to the method of handling the strip of goods of which the lnecktie is formed. The details oit this method include the manner of preparing the folds which in the completed tie constitute the tucked-in ends.
The above and other details and advantages will be described and claimed in the following specification and claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which z- Figure l represents a Yiront view ot the neclrtie koi this invention, thus closely resembling the usual bow tie;
Figure la is a top plan view looking down on the tie shown in Figure l;
Figure 2 is a sectional view, rather diagrammatic, taken on the line 2 2 of Figurel;
Figure 3 is a view taken on the line 33 of Figure l;
Figure 4 is a view of the rear side ofthe strip oi' goods used in forming the bow tie, and showing its tubular construction, the adhesive strip being broken away to show the inner lining;
`Figure 5 is a sectional view taken Yon the line 5 5 of Figures;
Figure 6 is a diagrammatic View showing the tirst step in the method ot treating the tubular strip to prepare tuck; c
Serial No. 148,867.
Figure 7 indicates the next position of the strip after the tucked portions have been prepared; and
Figure 8 represents the final position oi the respective parts of the tie indicating the position of the tucked-in ends between the outer walls ot' the tie.
Heretofore, ready-made bow tieshave usually been formed of goods arranged in a manner copying as closely as` possible the hand tied bow tie or else they have provideda plurality ot loops in each wing of the bow. The lirst Yforni which simulates the hand tied arrangement includes a loop and an end in each wing. Vith these arrangements, there is ordinarily at least three complete walls of built up structure in thc wing of each side et the tie.
By the use of the present invention, it is now possible to elect the saving ot approximately one-third of the facing material ot bow ties. The part of the tie which heretofore has comprised the end of the hand tied variety is done away with altogether and the tie uses looped ends having the appearance of two loops at eaeh'end.` Throughout the major portion of the length, the tie oi the present invention consists oiI only two main layers or folds, this pertaining` to complete thicknesses and not merely to fabric thicknesses.
By preparing the tie in accordance with the presentmethod, a further saving etapproximately liliteen percent of the goods `is etfected because the reverse 'face ot the tie is never on the exterior and it is thus possible to leave a gap between the adjacent edges ot the facing material and to bridge this gap with gumined reinforcing and stiltening nu terial in accordance with the details described in my Patent No. 1,596,782, August 17,1926.
It will be noted that by using the method of the present invention 'for reinforcing the ends and thus simulating a plurality of folds at each extreme end or the tie, it becon'ies possible to avoid the use of spreading elements or, other mechanical deviceswhich ottenare used to maintainy the shape ot bow tie wings. The present invention provides a bow tie formed up trom textile material and havingsiinilar material ihrouglmut the tie, thus providing tor even wear with its resultant advantage as contrasted tot-ies in which metallic parts tend to wear through and become conspicuous.
Referring in detail to the accompanying drawing, like parts are identified by like reference characters.
In Figure 1, there is illustrated the front view of a tie which has the general appearance of the usual bow tie. It will be obseived that at the left hand side, the rear portion projects and gives the impression that one end is longer than the front bow at that side. Similarly, at the right wing the rear portion projects slightly below thefront loop and gives the appearance that a hand tied bow might provide. A top plan view of the tie shown in Figure 1 is displayed in Figure 1a.' In both of these views, the front main facing material, such as silk, is vindicated at l, and 2 indicates the central tying piece which is used to gather the layers together to simulate the knot of the hand tied bow tie. Referring to Figure 1, it will be observed that the front facing inaterialis continued from the front around both-ends and along the rear, but that a peculiarity Y tie from the center to either tip end.
In inakingup the tie of the present invention, it is preferable to use a tubular strip such as is shown in Figures 4 and 5, in which the facing material 1 is folded over along its length so that its edge portions are spaced apart and provide the display portions 1, extending parallel tov the inain width 1. A combined securing and stiffening strip 3 bridges the gap between the edge portions 1a and -is gummed to each of these portions. To further stiifen the strip, an inner liner 4 of stiff, coarse cloth can be used. The manner in which the stiifcning strip 8 is used is the basis of my Patent 1,596,782.
The method of utilizing the structure shown in Figures 4 and 5 to' prepare the completed tie with the tucked-in ends will now be described, with reference to Figures 6, 7 and 8 to illustrate the several steps diagrainmatically. Itis now intended that the tucked-in portion be prepared; and vto doV this, the'gpiece shown in Figure 4 is laid face down with the strip 3 and the surface 1f* downward, but with the display face 1 upward. The extreme ends of the strip are now broughttogether or almost together, or even overlapping slightly, as may be desired, as is indicated for one end portion in Figure 6. so that the re-curved parts present adjacent faces 1 and 1 together with the faces 1il on the outside. It is now desired to fasten the adjacent faces together at a point quite close to the end of the loop or folded porparts of the tie.
tion. This is indicated at 5 by stitching, and is accomplished ordinarily by merely running the end through a sewing machine Yacross the width of the strip. This is performed at the two opposite ends of the folded piece. Y
The next step comprises reversing the strip so as to bring the face l upward and the face 1 downward and with the sewed tucked portions 1b projecting upward. Next, the end portions of the strip are'folded toward cach other as indicated diagrammatically in Figure 8. TheY structure is now ready to be tied together at the center by the gathering piece 2 illustrated in Figuresl and 1*. To most closely simulate a hand tied bow tie, the extreme end portions shown in Figure 8 may be distorted whenrpr'essed and befoie or'after tying'so as to make either the front oi' back projecting fold extend further out and thus give the irregularity shown in `Figure 1 and'sug'gestive of a hand tied'bow tie. It will be obvious that the strip shown in Figures 4 and 5 is'actually tubular, even though it may include a stiifening cloth such as 4. Thus the tube of Figure 4 has two layers of facing material made up of 1 and 1a. The cross sectional view of Figure 3 taken on the line 3 3 of Figure 1 shows that there are at least four layers of -facing material. At the line 2-2 of Figure 1, the section Shown in Figure 2 is taken through the extreme end portion and through the tucked-in ends of the loops, and this provides eight layers of facing material in addition to the four layers of binding or fastening material 8 and in addition to such other stiftening material as may be used and which in this case includes four layers of material 4. The stitching or other tacking or fastening means extends across the width of the strip and is shown in Figures 6, 7 and 8, extends only through the tucked-in portion, and the securing means or stitches is thus hidden by the enclosing folds of the front and rear This construction provides considerable stiffnessV and substance to the tie at its ends, a portion which heretofore has usually been rather flimsy as compared to the other portions'of the tie in known ready-made tie structures. i i
It will be observe-d that this tie, like hand tied bow ties, is open from top to bottom through the loops, as indicated Vin Figures 1u, 2, 8 and 8. It will further be noted that the inwardly projecting tucked portion 1b projects back into the open space. These features are in contrast to the structures of other known forms of ready made tie in which it is old to have tucked in ends which are built around a dummy padding orY form, or have the folds ofl looped portions closed from top to bottom.
Any suitable fastening device may be attached at the rear to the part 2 for mounting the necktie cn a shirt collar, as is customary and this is not illustrated and forms no part of the present invention.
I claim l. ln a bow necktie, a front Afacing piece across the front of the tie from end to end and continued around the opposite ends and at the rear of the tie andgathered together at the center and providing` a bow tie with a plurality of walls on either side of the center, said tie beingopen from top to bottom between said double walls giving the appearance of a plurality of separate walls on either side of center, each end of the tie comprising a loop and the opposite ends being tucked inwardly away from the ends, and fastening means within the tie securing the tucked-in portion to prevent withdrawal of the same.

7. A method of making up bow neckties which method comprises treating a tubular strip of material having a display face and a plain face by tacking together folded portions of said strip with the display portion 'face to face and the tacking being located adjacent the fold, neXt folding the ends of the strip to enclose the tacked folded portions and positioning said tacked folded portions substantially at the opposite ends of the tie and with the open side of the first folds in opposite directions and toward the tie ends.
8. A method of making up bow neckties which method comprises treating a strip of material by first folding its ends toward each other and thus forming a double layer, tacking the double layer at one point to another point on said strip to prevent unfolding of the double layer, folding the strip in a direction reverse to said first fold and with the ends of said first fold within the tie.
9. A method of making up bow neckties which method comprises treating a strip of material by tucking in its end portions part way only from the ends toward the center, and securing the tucked in portion at one point thereof to another point on the strip of material and within the folds whereby the tucked in portion is prevented from withdrawing, the folded portion being left open from top to bottom whereby the wings of the bow tie on either side of center have the appearance of a plurality of separate walls.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
