4 Claims.
.invention relates to an interchangeable 'and `quick detachable button of that class which is intended for use either as an ornament or to secure garments together in the usual manner.
In the trimming of wearing apparel, such as dresses, hats. etc., it is very desirable to be able to interchange the buttons or other ornaments used, with those of a different color, shape or size, 'so that .the wearer may trim the garment with buttons of various colors and styles to match hats, hails., etc., of the same colors, or combinations.
Iltis 'also desirable to be able to change the ornaments upon hats, bags, belts or other articles.
While detachable devices have been employed for attaching buttons to garments, they relate to means which are integral with the button and which cannot be attached to any other button or ornament.
The object of the invention is to provide means :for interchangeably and detachably securing any style ofbutton or other ornament to an article of wearing apparel such as dresses, hats, etc.
.Another object of the invention is to provide means whereby the button or other ornament may be attached to one part of the usual snap fastener, while the other part of the fastener is attached to the garment in the usual manner.
A further object of the invention is to provide an interchangeable and detachable button or ornament for wearing apparel that shall be simple of construction, easily attached, durable and emcient.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in certain new and useful improvements that will hereinafter be fully described and claimed and further illustrated in the accompanying drawing which forms a part hereof, and in which like figures of reference refer to corresponding parts in all of the views, and it is understood that slight changes may be made without departing from the spirit thereof.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a button, showingone part of a snap fastener secured thereto.
Figure 2 is a side view of the same, but showing the two parts of the snap fastener joined together, and the lower part secured to the fabric of a garment.
Figure 3 shows a rear lview of the button shown in Figure 1.
Figure 4 shows the rear view of another form of button with the snap fastener part attached thereto by cement or other suitable means.
Figure 5 is a cross sectional view of the button. fasteners and two parts of the garment fabric,
to illustrate how the button may be used in the usual manner.
Figure 6 isa front view of a button of a different shape, to illustrate that any style of button or other ornament may be employed. 5
Figure 'l shows the method employed for attaching the upper part of the snap fastener to the button when the holes in the button and those in the snap part do not register with each other, or when a large button is used. 10
Referring to the drawing:
The two parts of the usual type of snap fastener are indicated by the numerals i0, and II, and it is understood that any type of snap fastener or other quick detachable device may be l5 used for the purpose.
The lower part le of the snap fastener is attached tothe fabric i3 of the garment or other article by the threads I2 which are passed through the holes provided in the fastener Ill for this purpose.
The button I5 ,or other ornament is formed with the holes I6, which are intended for the thread by which the button was intended to be sewed to the garment in the usual manner.
The upper part l i of the snap fastener is placed in contact with the rear face of the button and is attached to the button by the threads I4 which are passed through both the holes i6 in the'button and the holes formed in the snap fastener II.
As shown in Figure 5, of the drawing, the stern Il of the upper part of the snap fastener II may be elongated to pass through a button-hole in the fabric I8 to attach the same to the fabric I3 to which the lower part I 0 of the fastener is 35 attached, o'r the fabric I8 may be buttoned over the button I5 in the usual manner after the two parts of the snap fastener I 0 and Il have been secured together.
As shown in Figure 4, the button may be 40 formed with the thread holes IB, which may be filled with thread, but not used to attach the snap part II, which is accomplished by cement or other suitable material placed between the rear face of the button and the upper part II of the snap fastener, or the fastener part II may be molded into the material of which the button or other ornament is composed.
In Figure 7, is shown the method employed when a large button is used and has to be attached to the small size snap fastener, the thread holes in the fastener part II, being on a much smaller radius than the holes I6 in the large diameter button 20.
This comprises a washer 2| which is placed 66 overthe stem l'l of the upper snap part I I, and which is of larger diameter than the snap part Il, and which is formed with thread holes 22 by which it may be attached to the button 20 by threads passed through the holes therein and the holes in the button which register therewith, and in this manner a button of any diameter and with thread holes in any location, may be readily attached to the standard type of snap fastener.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. As an article of manufacture, a button or the like formed with thread holes therein and having the detachable part of la. snap fastener secured thereto by threads passed through said thread holes and corresponding holes formed in the snap fastener.
part adapted to be secured to the wearing apparel 5 and the upper part to the button by the thread holes therein.
3. An an article of manufacture, a button or the like formed with thread holes therein and having the detachable part of a snap fastener l0 secured thereto by cement placed between said fastener and the button and entering the thread holes therein.
4. As an article of manufacture, a button or cmament, comprising a member designed tobe l5 worn, a two-part snap fastener, one part being cemented to the button, and the other part secured to the supporting member.
