4 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in lapel fasteners.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a device which may be employed by the cleaners and dyers trade, tailors, or haberdashers for holding the lapels of coats in their proper positions so that they will not be crumpled, improperly creased, or become out of shape while being handled when on display or during delivery.
A further object of the invention is to provide a lapel fastener which is of exceedingly simple construction and which may be easily and quickly applied to the lapels of a coat, or the like.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same:
Figure l is a front elevational View of a coat with the lapel fastener device embodying this invention properly associated therewith;
Figure 2 is a front elevational view of the lapel fastener device shown positioned in Fig. 1;
Figure 3 is an edge elevational view of the fastener structure disclosed in Fig. 2;
Figure 4 is a transverse sectional view taken on line fi-d of Fig. 2;
Figure 5 is a plan view of the rear fastener member; and
Figure 6 is a plan view of the front fastener member.
In the drawing, wherein for'the purpose of il lustration is shown a preferred embodiment of this invention, the reference character A designates in its entirety a coat or jacket which has applied to its lapels a, the lapel fastener designated in its entirety by the reference character B.
Figs. 5 and 6 respectively disclose the rear and front members which are properly associated to form the lapel fastener embodying this invention. It is to be understood that these two members are formed of cardboard, or the like, of suitable thickness and grade of material to afford a reasonable degree of resiliency.
The rear member IQ, see Fig. 5, when in blank form includes an elongated body portion I I which is shaped to provide a pair of oppositely projecting tongues I 2. These tongues are reduced or sharpened at their extremities I3. Projecting laterally from the central portion of this body I I is a tab I4.
The front member, designated in its entirety by the reference character I I, also is shaped to provide a body portion I5 which includes the oppositely extending tongues I5, reduced or sharpened at the extremities il. A laterally extending, centrally positioned tab SS also is carried by the body i5. It will be noted by comparing Figs. 5 and 6 5 that the body 'i5 of the front member is shorter than the body I l of the rear member, so that when these two members are superimposed, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the sharpened extremities i3 of the rear member i@ will project beyond the sharpl0 cned extremities Il of the front member EI.
The tab lil of the rear member l0 is adapted to be folded on the line i9 so that it will overlie the central portion of the body il. The tab I8 of the front member I l is adapted to be folded 15 on the line 29 so that it will overlie the central portion of the body I5. With these tabs ift and ES folded as just described, the two members ill and l i are arranged so that the bent over tabs I4 and I S will interlock with each other, as best disf closed in Fig. 4. This interlocking is accomplished by inserting each tab into the space between the tab and body portion of the other member. With the two members superimposed in this manner, they will be retained in spaced paraln 25 lelism by the interlocked tabs and the spacing between the two members will be equal to the combined thicknesses of the two tabs. To retain the members in this proper relation, the fastening member in the form of a staple ZI, or the 30 like, is driven through the central portions of both of the members I and i I and the interlocked tabs Ill and I8, as best shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
The lapel fastener now is completely formed 35 and may readily be applied to the lapels of a coat by merely threading the lapels into the spaces left between the superimposed tongues I2 and I6 of the members Il) and II, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 1. As the fastener is to be de- 40 livered to the customer who owns the coat, the front of the fastener provides an appropriate place for advertising matter.
It is to be understood that the form of this invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes in the shape, size and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described the invention, I claim:
l. A lapel fastener of the type described comprising a pair of double tongue shaped members, a centrally positioned, laterally extending tab carried by each member and adapted to be bent 55 back upon the body portion of its member, said members being arranged With their tabs in engagement with each other so that said tabs Will maintain said members in spaced parallel relation, and means for connecting said members in such relation.
2. A lapel fastener of the type described comprising a pair of double tongue shaped members, a centrally positioned, laterally extending tab carried by each member and adapted to be bent back upon the body portion of its member, said members being arranged with their tabs in interlocked, overlapped relation so as to hold said members spaced distances equal to the combined thickness of bore of said tabs, and securing members passed through both of said members and their tabs.
tabs folded between said members and by said securing means.
