Abstract
A system is provided that enables a wearer to tie a dress tie so that the ends thereof are of optimum length on the first try after a short, one-time practice session. Optimum length is assumed when the tip of large end of the tie is even with the center of the wearers belt buckle. The system necessitates creation of a line of dress ties that, except for the print design on the outer shell, are essentially identical with respect to thickness, width and length. In addition, all ties in the line must employ a dimensionally-stable internal backing fabric, to prevent stretching. Identical series of equally-spaced position markers are provided on each tie in the line so that a wearer can identify a proper starting point for beginning to knot the tie. Markers are embroidered or deposited on a portion of each tie.
Description
- This invention relates, generally, to dress ties and bow ties and, more particularly, to methods for tying a dress tie or bow tie correctly, with proper end lengths, on the first attempt.
- As the wearing of clip-on, pre-tied dress ties and bow ties is considered, by many, to be gauche and tawdry, as well as evidence of a lack of style and good taste, hand-tied dress ties and bow ties are likely to be with us for a very long time.
- When a young man learns to tie a dress tie for the first time after graduating from the clip-on ties of childhood, he learns that he is very lucky if the tip of large end of the tie is even with the center of his belt buckle and the small end of the tie is shorter than the large end on the first try. Even for someone who is adept at tying a dress tie, it is not infrequent that he will need to tie it at least twice in order to obtain the proper proportions of small and large end lengths. What makes the tying process so frustrating is that not only do dress ties vary somewhat in length, but they also vary in width and thickness, with thickness being a function of the quality and thickness of backing material used, as well as the thickness of the cloth from which the tie is manufactured. Another variable is that some ties tend to stretch over time. Width, thickness and length all play a part in the equation for the proper tying of a dress tie.
- The present invention provides a system enabling a wearer to tie a dress tie so that the ends thereof are of optimum length on the first try after a short, one-time practice session. By optimum length, it is usually assumed that a dress tie is properly tied when the tip of large end of the tie is even with the center of a wearers belt buckle, and the small end of the tie is shorter than the large end. The first part of that system is to create a dress tie that has very few variables. Thickness, width and length must be constant for a particular line of dress ties. For example, a tie manufacturer might have several lines (e.g. wide and narrow) and several sizes (e.g., long, medium and short) of dress ties, but each size in each line, regardless of the outer fabric design, must be consistent in thickness, length and width and must not stretch with use. In order to accomplish these objectives, each tie must have the same shape, must use a dimensionally-stable internal backing fabric, and the outer fabric—with different prints for different ties—must consistently be of the same weight. When these variables have been eliminated, it is still necessary to provide position markers on the tie itself so that a wearer can tie any dress tie in his collection in an identical manner. The present invention provides a method for creating position markers on the tie so that a user can begin the tying process the same way every time. Identical series of equally-spaced markers are sewn on each of the manufacturer's ties of the same size. A preferred way of creating the markers is to embroider equidistant raised dashes or dots or both on the front side or on the back side or on both sides of the tie. The markers can also be created with an elastomeric compound, such as RTV silicon rubber, applied directly to the tie's decorative fabric. Because the markers are raised, a blind person could easily learn to correctly tie such a tie in only one attempt after a one time practice session of several attempts. Use of this invention does not imply that a wearer of such a tie will need no practice. Once the user has determined the optimum beginning position for beginning the knot, he can repeat the task over and over on different ties of this same type in his collection and properly tie each tie with a single attempt. One simple way of correctly positioning the tie to begin the knot is to wrap the tie around the neck and have the two ends intersect at a 90-degree angle, with the appropriate mark designating the optimum starting point for the knot on the large end at the point of intersection. An alternative technique is to have the markers on the small end of the tie and start the tying process with the small end at a predetermined height, as indicated by the position of the markers. For example, the wearer of the tie may decide to align a particular marker with the top button of his shirt, and then begin the tying process. Of course, in such a case, it would be assumed that the wearer would tie the knot with similar slack each time so that the results would not significantly vary. Using either technique, all identically-made and identically-marked ties in a single line of ties can be properly tied with only one attempt. Narrow ties and wide ties would need to be marketed as separate lines, as they would tie differently. The key to the invention is the use of the dimensionally-stable backing fabric, the standardization of length, width and thickness of each tie in the marketed line, and the use of uniformly positioned markers that would enable a wearer to tie each tie in the line the same way each time, using the markers as a guide to beginning the tying process.

- The invention will now be described in detail with reference to the attached drawing figures. It is to be understood that the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale and that they are intended to be merely illustrative of the invention.
- Referring now to
FIG. 1 , therear surface 101 of adress tie 100, which incorporates a first embodiment of the invention, is shown. Aseries 102 of 12 raised dots and 11 raised dashes is positioned over therear center seam 103 on amiddle portion 104 of thetie 100. The raised dots and dashes can be formed with embroidery or by depositing a flexible polymeric compound such as RTV (room-temperature vulcanization) silicon rubber in the shape of dots and dashes. If embroidery is used to form theseries 102, the embroidery is visible on both the front and rear surfaces of the tie. - Referring now to
FIG. 2 , therear surface 201 of adress tie 200, which incorporates a second embodiment of the invention, is shown. Aseries 202 of 12 raised dots and 11 raised dashes is positioned to one side of therear center seam 203 on amiddle portion 204 of thetie 200. As with the first embodiment described with respect toFIG. 1 , the raised dots and dashes can be formed with embroidery or by deposited a flexible polymeric compound. Because the dots are place to one side of therear center seam 203, it far easier to form theseries 202 with embroidery on only the back surface, as the embroidery can be sewn on the outer fabric of the tie before thetie 200 is sewn together at therear center seam 203. If the raised dots and dashes are formed with a flexible polymeric compound, the dots can be applied either before or after thetie 200 is sewn together at therear center seam 203. - Referring now to
FIG. 3 , thefront surface 301 of thedress tie 100 ofFIG. 1 is shown with theseries 302 of raised dots and dashes running down the center of amiddle portion 104 of the dress tie. In this case, if embroidery was used to form theseries 102 of dots and dashes, it is visible on both the front and rear surfaces of thetie 100. Alternatively, theseries 302 of dots and dashes can be embroidered into the shell fabric of the tie before the tie is assembled and before the center seam is sewn. In such a case, theseries 302 of dots and dashes would be found only on thefront surface 301 of the tie. - Referring now to
FIG. 4 , thefront surface 401 of thedress tie 400 is shown with theseries 402 of raised dots and dashes running down the center of the narrow end third 403 of thedress tie 400. This particular embodiment shows the markers beginning about 20 cm (8 inches) from the narrow end of the tie and ending before the central third of the tie. In any case, the markers are placed predominantly on a one-third portion of the tie's length that begins with the narrow end thereof. If embroidery is used to form theseries 102 of dots and dashes, it can be visible on either the front surface or both the front and rear surfaces of thetie 400. If only on the front surface, the series of dots and dashes is preferably embroidered into the shell fabric before the tie is assembled, and before the center seam is sewn. It should be emphasized that the embroidery can be sewn through both the shell fabric and the backing fabric (seeFIG. 5 ). With a deposited series of dots and dashed, the markers can be located exclusively on either the front or back surfaces of the tie. Of course, because the narrow end of the tie is covered by the wide end while it is worn, it likely makes little, if any, difference to the wearer where the marks are placed. In such a case, theseries 402 of dots and dashes would be found only on thefront surface 401 of the tie. With such a series of raised markers, the wearer may decide to align a particular marker with the top button of his shirt, and then begin the tying process. - Referring now to
FIG. 5 , a dimensionally-stable backing fabric 501 is shown. Dimensionally-stable fabrics are well known in the art and are readily available. For example, Norfab Corporation of Norristown, Pa. manufactures tightly woven textile products using synthetic fibers such as Kevlar®, Nomex®, Twaron®, Basofil®, Kynol®, Oxidized Pan Fiber, Lenzing FR® and other technical fibers blended into yarns which provide high levels dimensional stability. Several U.S. patents also disclose the manufacture of dimensionally-stabile fabrics. U.S. Pat. No. 3,616,149 to Robert C. Wincklhofer discloses a fabric prepared from blended fiber-forming polymers having different chemical properties, with at least one of the fiber-forming polymers being dispersed as fibrils in a lower melting point polymeric matrix. The fabric article is produced by heating the fabric to a temperature above the melting point of the matrix forming material, but below the melting temperature of the dispersed fibrils, thereby setting the fabric in a stable shape. U.S. Pat. No. 4,026,129 to Herschel Sternlieb discloses a dimensionally-stable fabric of a type having a layer of carded fibers reinforced by a woven fabric layer, warp knitted together by separate yarns, with the carded fiber layer being unbonded, uncompacted and of intermingled, non-parallel fibers. U.S. Pat. No. 7,766,054 to Donald E. Scott discloses a method of producing a dimensionally stable, fire-resistant fabric including the steps of spinning yarn from wool and fire-resistant synthetic fibers, weaving the yarn to form a fabric, and dimensionally stabilizing the fabric. Each of these three referenced U.S. patents is incorporated in this application in its entirety. - Although only three embodiments of a dress tie incorporating both a dimensionally-stable backing fabric and a series of position markers on the ties surface have been shown and described, it will be obvious to those having ordinary skill in the art that changes and modifications may be made thereto without departing from the scope and the spirit of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
