Description

C. E. ERVlN SOFT COLLAR PIN Aug. 8, 1933.
Filed Sept. 14, 1932 Patented Aug. 8, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application September 14, 1932 Serial No. 633,172
1 Claim.
The invention relates to means for fashioning the front of the folds of soft collars to add to their appearance and to keep them from wrinkling or crushing when in use, and has for its object the provision of a pin made of a single strand of wire and bent intermediate of its ends to engage within the hem at the front of one side of the soft collar by one of the ends that is sharpened to a point to enable engaging within the hem, the other end of the pin engaging under the fold of the collar to resiliently hold the front of the collar from wrinkling or becoming crumpled.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a pin bent intermediate of its ends as stated, the bent portion of the pin being coiled one or more times to provide resilience between two ends of the pin, the pin resiliently holding the collar from bending or crumpling.
The invention will be described in detail hereinafter and will be found illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a fragmentary front view of a collar and necktie showing the collar holding pins in position,
Figure 2 is a side view of one of the pins, and
Figure 3 is a top plan view.
In the drawing similar reference characters will be used to designate corresponding parts in all of the views.
An apparel collar is shown at 10 and provided 3 with hems 11 at the front edges of the collar flap 12. The collar pin 13 is made of a single strand of spring wire bent intermediate of its ends at 14 and coiled on itself one or more times, as shown in Figure 3 to provide for resilience between the ends 15 and 16. The extremity of the ends 15 are sharpened as shown at 1'? so that the ends 15 may be inserted in the inside of the collar flaps through the hem 11 as shown in Figure l, to stiffen the front of the collar on each side. The end 16 fits under the fold of the collar 10, and shaped or curved to conform to the curvature of the collar when first applied to a collar of the wearer by bending it with the fingers, and fits snugly under the collar fold, the two ends of the flaps being tensioned to normally spread the ends of the wire when in position, the coil 14 adding to the resilience of the member. The extremity of the end 16 is returned on itself in the form of a loop as shown at 18 to prevent scoring the collar and wearing it out when in position as shown.
What is claimed is:-
A collar holding pin, comprising a strand of spring wire bent intermediate of its ends to provide an angular member, the wire at said bent portion coiled and tensioned to normally spread the ends of the wire, one of said ends adapted for insertion in the hem on the front of an apparel collar and pointed to facilitate said insertion, the other end of the member being adapted to resiliently engage under the collar fold.
