INVENTOR ATToRNEY Sept. 27, 1932 .1. sANsoNE PERMANENTLY ATTACHED COLLAR BUTTON Filed April 16 1931 :Ime/a7: .Samana Patented Sept. 27, 1932 UNITED STATES JOSEPH SANSQNE, F JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY PERMANENTLY ATTACHED COLLAR BUTTON 's Application inea April 16.1931. serial No. 530,486.
This inventionrelates to new and useful improvements in permanently attached collar buttons.
The invention has for an object the provi- 45 sion of a device of the class mentioned which is of simple durable construction, dependable in-use and eflicient in action, and which can be manufactured and sold at a reasonable cost. VThe invention proposes a permanent button support collar band or the like comprising a band, a plurality of button holes formed in the band, collar buttons supported in said button holes, means for permanently securing said collar buttons in' the button holes, and means in the band for temporarily locking said collar buttons in place.'
At the present time support bands are in use which have detachable buttons for insertion in button holes therein. These bands have many disadvantages, among which are the following. In case the button holes are too wide the bases of the collar buttons become easilyl disengaged vtherefrom and fall out of place. As the buttonsV are lso small, they are easily lost and discomfort usually ensues. Furthermore, especially in evening dress shirts, the starch used in laundering them causes the button holes tobecome sealed and this also resultsinl great discomfort in that it is necessary to first part the button `holes for. permitting the'insertion of the collar buttons.
The instant invention proposes to do away with these evils in viewl of the fact that the collar buttons are always permanently attached to the collar band. In this way the collar buttons cannot fall outof place nor can the starch used in washing the shirts seal the button holes. Furthermore, dressing usually` accomplishf in 4haste and when the button is detached fumbling usually results.
This is eliminated by the instant device in view of the fact that the button is always in place and the collar need only be snapped on.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, and to "'20 the appended claimsin vwhich the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawing forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a support. collar band with buttons attached. y
Fig. 2 is a vertical cross section taken on the line 2-'2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an elevational view taken on the lineV 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 isa vertical cross section of Fig. 3 taken on the line 4-4.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged view similar to the front portion of Fig. 1, but showing the modification thereof.
Fig. 6 is a vertical-cross section of Fig. 5 taken on the line 6-6.
Fig. 7 is a view similar to Fig. 3 showing a modification thereof.
The'permanent button support collar band or the like consists of a band 10, a plurality of button holes 11 formed in the band, collar buttons 12 supported in said button holes, and means for permanently securing the collar buttons in the button holes.
The band 10 consists of a front facing 13 and rear material 14. The collar support band is shown attached on the shirt material 14 in Fig. 1. Though illustrated in Fig. 1 as attached on the neck portion of the shirt, 8 the device could also be attached on the cuffs or the openable front of the shirt. The band is illustrated in an open position with the collar button and the receiving button hole detached. t
The button holes 11 are shown on each end of the separated collar band and extend through both the front and rear facings of the band. The button hole at the rear of the collar band is only cut in Vthe facing material 13 of the band anddoes not extend through the rear material 14. A rear pocket 15 is formed by stitching the front facing 13 and the rear material 14 together at substantial distances from the button hole. The front pocket 17 is formed by sewing the reinforcing member to the rear material 14 of the band at 18. This reinforcing Inaterial is circular and the stitches are at a substantial dstance from the button hole. 1C?
Customary collar buttons are placed in these buttonfholes. These collar buttons 12 have base portions 19, shank portions 20 and head portions 21. The rea-r collar button has a head portion 21 pivotally mounted at 22 to the base portion 19. Stitches 23 are sewed between the materials of the band and directly around the circumference of the base portions 19 of the collar buttons so that the collar buttons are prevented from movement. After the collar buttons have been inserted in the button holes and sewed yin place, the pockets and 17 are sewed closed.
In the modified form of the device illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6, an adjustable means for temporarily locking the collar button in place is shown. Flat semi-lleX- ible member 24 preferably made of Whalebone is inserted in the pocket. This member is sewed in place by stitches 25 and is. formed with a cutout portion 26 on one edge. The cutout portion 26 has a Width to engage the shank portion of the collar button. In the front pocket, member 24, is inserted around the shank of the collar button, the pocket is closed and thread is sewed so as to hold the member 24 in place. l.Since the length of the button hole ll is reduced by ineens of the member 24, the collar button cannot be removed.
Fig. 7 indicates a modification of the rear portion of the collar band and is similar to the modification shown in Fig. 5. Two members Q4 are inserted opposite .each other and are inoperative` when in position 29. In order to make these members operative they are moved toward each other so as to have the portions around the cutout 26 overlapping each other. They are then sewed in place by stitches 25. In this position the collar button is prevented from detachment. In order to release the collar button, itis only :necessary to break the threads 25 and slide the members 24 back into the inoperative positions 29.
While I have show-n and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to Y be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifica'tions coming within the scope of the invention as defined inthe appended claims, Having thus described my invention, what I .claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is 1.
