Description
y 2, 1935- P. D. SMITH TIE LOCKING DEVICE Filed July 13, 1934 Patented July 2, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT oFF cE This invention relates to locking devices for ties known as four-in-hand ties and has for its object the production of an inexpensive device which when used in connection with a tie of this character will retain the loop thereof well up in the collar and prevent any downward slipping thereof rela tively to the other parts of the tie. 7
Another object is to provide means on said device for preventing any side movement of the rear portion of the tie relatively to the front portion thereof, thus keeping the rear portion directly behind the front portion in its proper position.
These objects are attained by the mechanisms illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
For the purpose of illustrating the invention, one preferred form thereof is illustrated in the drawing, this form having been found to give satisfactory and reliable results, although it is to be understood that the various instrumentalities of which the invention consists can be variously arranged and organized, and the invention is not limited to the precise arrangement and organization of these instrumentalities as herein shown and described except as required by the scope of the appended claims.
Of the drawing Figure 1 represents an elevation of a portion of a four-in-hand tie and showing applied thereto a tie lock embodying the principles of the present invention.
Figure 2 represents a side elevation of said tie lock.
Figure 3 represents a front elevation of a modification of said tie lock.
Figure 4 represents a side elevation of same.
Figure 5 represents a horizontal section on line 5, 5 on Fig. 2.
Figure 6 represents an elevation of another modification of said tie lock.
Figure '7 represents a side elevation thereof, and
Figures 8, 9 and 10 represent respectively, a plan, a front elevation, and a side elevation of another modification of the tie lock.
Similar characters indicate like parts throughout the several figures of the drawing.
In the drawing, I E3 is a wire having at its upper end a tapered point I I and at its lower end a tapered point I2 extending laterally from the body portion of wire Ill and joined thereto by a loop I3, all as shown clearly in Fig. l of the drawing.
Between the tapered points I I, I2 the wire I9 is bent as shown in said Fig. l to form a stop member I l extending laterally from the opposite sides of said wire Ill.
The opposite wings of the stop member I4 are preferably bent rearwardly, thus forming an arcu- 7 ate structure as shown in Fig. 5, which is adapted to partially enclose the rearportion I 5 of a four in-hand tie to prevent side play thereof.
1 This arcuatestop member I4 is'positioned im- .5 mediately beneath the knot I6 of the tie and prevents said knot I6 from moving downwardly.
The upper'pointedrend II of the wire I0 is disposed in 'theupperzportion of the part I5 of .thetie and when the stop. member is in proper position relatively to. the/.knot' I 6, the tapered point I2 is inserted in the rear portion I5 of the tie, as shown in Fig. 1.
When the tapered point I2 is thus inserted in the part I 5, the wire I0 cannot move downwardly and as the arcuate stop member I4 is in contact with the knot I6, said knot will be retained Well up in the collar and cannot slip down exposing the collar button, which exposure would be very objectionable.
When the knot I6 slips down on the part I5 of a four-in-hand tie it gives an unkempt appearance and this condition can be effectually overcome when the device embodying the present invention is used, as described.
The device may be made of a single wire I0 as shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 5, or the arcuate stop member I4 may be made of a separate band I! of metal soldered to the wire II], as shown in the other figures of the drawing.
If preferred, the tapered point I2 may extend perpendicular to the body portion of wire I0 and be connected thereto by a reverse bend I8, all as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
When desired the tie lock may have its tapered point l2 extending downwardly and connected to the body portion of the wire I0 by an S-shaped bend I9, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7.
In this form of lock the tapered point I2is inserted in the part I5 until the cloth of such part reaches the upper bend 25, thus preventing any downward movement of the lock.
A simpler form such as shown in Figs. 8, 9 and 10 may also be used to advantage.
In this modified form the tapered point I2 is 45 inserted into part I5 of the tie until the cloth of said part contacts with the stop member I4, thus preventing downward movement of the locking device.
When this locking device is used on a four-in- 50 hand tie, the tie will always be retained in proper position relatively to the collar and present a tidy appearance, and give the wearer an appearance of being carefully and properly dressed.
It is believed that the operation and many 55 advantages of the invention will be understood without further description.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A tie locking device consisting of a horizontally disposed arcuate member having extending upwardly and downwardly from a central portion thereof a wire having sharpened pin points at opposite ends.
2. A tie locking device formed in one piece consisting of a horizontally disposed arcuate member having extending upwardly and downwardly from a central portion thereof a wire having sharpened pin points at opposite ends. 7 o 3. A tie locking device consisting of a narrow I transverse stop member the ends of'which are curved rearwardly and from a central portion of which extends upwardly and downwardly a wire having sharpened pinpoints at opposite ends.
4'. A tie locking device comprising a straight wire having at its upper end a. tapered point and at itslower end a tapered point perpendicular tally disposed arcuate member having extending to-thebody portion of said wire-combined with curvedi Wings extending laterally from said straight wire, 25
ing at its upper end a, tapered point and at-its 5. A tie locking device comprising-Jo. wirehavlower end a tapered point perpendicular to'the body portion of said wire and: formed integral therewith, the vertical portion oi said wire having alined stop projections curved rearwardly fr0m; the opposite sides thereof.
r 6. A tie locking device comprising a wire having at its upper end a tapered point and at its lower end a tapered point perpendicular to the body portion of said wire, said wire being provided with means for straddling and preventing side movement of the rear depending part of the tie.
'7. A tie locking device consisting of a horizontally disposed arcuate member having extending upwardly and downwardly from a central point thereof ,a wire having sharpened pin points at opposite ends, the lower portion of said wire having an S-shaped bend therein.
8. A tie locking device consisting of a horizontally disposed arcuate member having extending upwardly and downwardly froma central point thereof a wire having sharpened pin points at opposite ends, the lower portion of said wire having its pointed end perpendicular to the body portion thereof. 7
' 9.* A tie locking device. consisting of a horizonupwardly and downwardly from a, central point thereof a wire havingsharpened pin points at opposite ends, the lower portionof said wire having a reverse bend therein terminating in a lateral pointed end, 1
