NECKTIE AND METHOD OF TYING SAME Filed May 24, 1929 Patented May 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT oFFIcs WALTER'J'. BRUEHL, F BUFFALO, NEW YORK NECKTIE AND METHOD on TYING SAME Application filed May 24,
.10 er end portion and then brought upwardly through the neck loop and threaded downwardlyunderneath one ofthe'wrappings following which both ends are subjected to a tightening or tensioning in order to properly .15 shape and position the tie. Constant tyinganduntying of this much desired and favored knot causes the tie quickly to becomewrin- .kled and also subjects substantially the same portion of the tie to a constant wear and tear,
causing the edges to tray and the adjacent portionstobecomesoile The present invention aims to provide atie whichyin all appearance, gives the four-inhand dress to the tie withoutsubjecting the tieto the usual wear. and tear andthe incidental wrinkle-forming manipulations of the well known iour-in-hand tie.
[The invention also resides in providing a core or bodyhaving the shape of a four-inhand knot and overwhich is brought the larger end portion ofthe tie, rather than through it,and then completing the tie by means acting to conform the overlying end 3, portion orfiap to theunderlying core or body Q so as to accordto the finished tie a four-inhand appearance without, however, actually threading or passing the larger end portion through any restrictedarea whichwould tend to wrinkle or cause undue wear of the same.
1 A further object of the invention is to provide what might be termed an incomplete four-in-hand knot, leaving the larger end portion of the tie in overlying relation to the incomplete knot, utilizing the latter as a i shaping core or body, conforming the overlying end portion to the core or body, and applyinga conforming device about the tie so as to create an apparent line of demarcation between the knot portion and the free end i portions of the tie; and the invention also has tioned over the knot portion.

for its object to provide means for bringing the lateral edges of the overlying tie flap rearwardly and beneath the core-forming knot to effect a snug embrace of the latter and impart a four-in-hand appearance to'the tie.
In the drawing, i Fig. 1 indicates the completed tie incorporating the present invention, b

Referring more in detail to the accompanying drawing, the numerall designates the smaller orminor end of the tie and the nu- 1neral2 designates the larger or major end of the tiewhich, after being brought around the neck to form the neck loop 3,. is then wrapped tightly one or more times about the smaller end portion 1 to formuthe incomplete four-in-hand knot 4 of aself-sustaining character to constitute a shaping core or body. The usual iour-in-hand knot is then com-. pleted by bringing the end 2 upwardly through the neck loop 3 and threading it downwardly beneath the outerwrapping of the knot This causes the larger portion of the tie to be passed through the restricted passage, being exceedingly wrinkled therein. and the ends ofthe tie are then manipulated the wearers neck. This causes the tie to become wringled, and when itis desired to untie the neckwear, considerablepulling of i the tie about the knot is required in order to either slip the smaller end 1 fronioutj of the knot 4 or to withdraw the larger end portionin-a reverse seriesof steps to thatffol lowed in tying the knot. These several dis advantages -I satisfactorily overcome, with out sacrificingthe favored knot appearance,
by my improved knot nowto bedescribed.
The incomplete knot, depicted in Fig. 2, provides a self-sustaining body or core having a somewhat triangular or inverted truncated appearance with a widened upper portion and a narrowed lower portion, characteristic of the four-in-hand tie knot. The knot L is shaped by the wrapping and positioning of the flap. 2 as indicated in Fig. 2, and any further'steps are primarily designed for securing the flap from unwrapping without dcstroying the knot. With the usual tying methods it has been impossible to preserve the knotexcept by inserting the larger-end or flap 2 through the knot. By means of the present invention I am enabled to preserve the same neat appearance and shape the four-in-hand tie without threading the larger end through the hot.
T this endthe larger end portion or flap 2 is brought into overlying relation with the knot 4 as indicated in Fig. 3 sons to completely conceal and hide the core-forming or shaping knot 4 from which the flap 2 derives its four-in-hand knot appearance, Followin the positioning of the flap 2 as indicated in ig. 3 means are provided for conforming the tie flap to the underlying core, one form of a device for accomplishing this purpose be ing depicted in Fig. 4 wherein a clasp embodying a knot-embracing portion-5 has terminal arms 6' ada ted to engage and conform the lateral portionsof the flap 2 to the side and underlying portions of the core. In other words, the clasp 5 serves to shape the flap 2 about the core 4 by a more or less snug em brace whereby the flap 2 is given the same triangular or inverted truncated knot appear,- ance as is found in the usual four-in-hand tie. The bodyportion 5 of the clasp, byencircling the tie at the base of the core 4, serves to define a line of demarcation between the apparent four-in-hand knot 7 and the depending flap 2. This serves to further retain the four-in-hand knot appearance. The clasp may he provided with roughened portions 8 and 9 to hold the clasp against slipping downwardly on the tie and the lateral portions from slipping out from beneath the arms, or a pin 10 might be employedto secure the clasp from beneath tothe tie.
This latter vform of fastening means I have exemplified in Fig. 5, the clasp 5 being modified toa certain extent, being'depicted as comprising a plurality of sections hinged together at 11 and having its arms 6 formed with. apertures (5" to receive the pin 10, the
. pin being also passed through the lateral portions of the flap 2 as indicated.
By practicin the present invention it is possible to ma e an apparently complete four-in-hand knot without in reality com,- pleting the'knot in accordance with the now prevallingpractice. The knot 4 could be of a permanent structure if'so desired, and whether permanent or temporary the knot provides a substantial, shape-forming body or core to which the overlying flap is readily conformed by means of the flap-conforming device 5 It will be observed that the flap-conforming device causes the overlying flap 2 to lie smoothly about the knot 4, forming a more or less complete envelope for the knot so as to conceal the same from view, and that wrinkling of said flap is avoided because the flap is caused to lie smoothly over and about the core.
lVhat is claimed is:
1. A method of tying a necktie to give a four-in-hand knot appearance, consisting in forming a neck loop having a minor end portion and a major end portion overlapping one another, wrapping the major end portion completely about the minor end portion in close embrace therewith and beneath the loop to to m a substantial knot shaping core depending from the loop with a downward taper, then passing the free portion of the major end upwardly through the neck loop and thence draping it downwardly over the shaping core, then conforming the sides of the draped portion snugly about the shaping core whereby the overlying draped portion assumes the shape of the shaping core and conceals the same, and finally securing said sides behind the shaping core so as to hold said sides from view and maintain the snug confer-inability of the draped portion to the shaping core.
2. In combination with a four-in-hand necktie having a minor end portion and a major end portion overlapping one another to form a neck loop, the major end portion wrapped completely about the minor end portion in close embrace therewith and beneath the loop to form a substantial knot shaping core with a downward taper depending from the neckloop the free flap of the major end portion passing upwardly through the loop and draping downwardly over the shaping core so as to conceal the same, of means for securing the sides of the flap snugly about the shaping core so as to conform the flap thereto forin'lparting to the draped flap the shape of theshaping core while at the same time completely concealing the same.
