3 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in cravats or neck ties.
One object of the invention is to provide an improved neck tie, or cravat, which is so constructed that it will not twist, or get out of shape.
An important object of the invention is to provide an improved neck tie which has its longitudinal edges reinforced, whereby the strain caused by an excessive pull on the tie is taken by such reinforced edges, thereby eliminating tearing or splitting of said tie.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved neck tie, or cravat, having means for holding the tie in position around the neck band of a collar which prevents the tie slipping from beneath the collar; said means also serving to prevent the knot of the tie from slipping and becoming loosened.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved neck tie which is reinforced and strengthened along its edges, whereby the tie may be made of a single thickness of cloth, thereby reducing the amount of material necessary, as well as eliminating the use of a lining, which greatly reduces the cost.
A construction designed to carry out the invention will be hereinafter described, together with other features of the invention.
The invention will be more readily understood from a reading of the following specification and by reference to the accompanying drawing, in which examples of the invention are shown, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a neck tie, or cravat, constructed in accordance with the in- Vention,
Figure 2 is an enlarged view of one end of the tie, having a portion broken away to show the reinforcing means,
Figure 3 is an enlarged, transverse, sectional view of the same,
Figure 4 is a perspective View of another form of the invention,
Figure 5 is a transverse, sectional View of the same,
Figure 6 is an enlarged, transverse sectional view of a modified form of the invention, and
Figure 7 is an elevation of another form of the invention.
In the drawing, the numeral I0 designates a tie which may be of any desired construction. As is shown, the tie is of the usual construction, being made of a single piece of material. The material is of such width that the front section or face Il of the tie is rst formed, after which the material is folded upon itself at each edge of the face Il to form the back sections l2. The back sections are sewed together along a central seam I3 extending longitudinally of the back of the tie, and suitable lining Iii is inserted between the front and back sections so formed. This is the usual method of forming ties and is therefore, subject to variation.
In carrying out the invention, a cord or braid l5 is inserted within the tie along the edges thereof. This cord has a thickness slightly greater than the material of which the tie is made and is located at the fold of the material as is clearly shown in Figure 3. To hold said cord in the edge, the front and back sections Il and I2 of the tie may be stitched together adjacent the cord, whereby displacement thereof is obviated.
The cord extends completely around all edges of the tie and therefore reinforces and strengthens the tie. When an excessive pull is exerted on said tie, it will be obvious that the strain is taken by such cord rather than by the material of which the tie is made. This eliminates all danger of tearing or splitting of the material and also prevents twisting, or otherwise pulling out of shape.
Since the cord, braid or other reinforcing means at the edges of the tie, has a greater thickness than the material, the edges of the tie are thicker or heavier than the central portion thereof. Thus, when the tie encircles a collar band beneath the collar of a shirt, these thicker edges are engaged between said collar and band, and due to their increased thickness provide sufficient frictional engagement to prevent the tie from slipping from beneath the collar. Also after the tie is knotted in the usual manner, the reinforced edges form ridges whereby these ridges not-only take all the wear, but also tend to frictionally hold the tie in place, thereby preventing the knot from slipping.
It is noted that various ways of reinforcing the tie may be employed. It would be possible to sew a flat braid on the underside of all the edges thereof. Also, it would be possible to make a tie of a single thickness of material instead of forming the front and back sections with the lining therebetween. This form of tie is shown in Figures 4 and 5. In such case, a section of material I8 is provided and this material has its longitudinal edge portions l'i folded back upon itself to form a hem. A suitable cord or other reinforcing means I8 is inserted in the hem and it will be seen that a tie, having all the advantages of that shown in Figures 1 to 3 is had. In this latter form, only a single thickness of material is used, which not only results in a saving of material, but also eliminates the use of lining. The provision of the reinforced edges gives the tie suilcient body to retain its proper shape. It is noted that in this form, only the longitudinal edges are shown as reinforced, but if desired, the transverse edges may also be similarly reinforced. However, it has been found that the strains caused by excessive pull are usually longitudinal, and therefore, reinforcing only longitudinally of the tie has proven effective. Y
It is not necessary to utilize a separate reinforcing cord, or braid, for it has been found that the advantages can be obtained by merely turning sufficient of the material back at the edge portions to give the enect of the cord. This construction is clearly shown in Figure 6, wherein the material l5 at the edge portions is turned back, then folded upon itself and then stitched in place, to form the reinforced edge. This construction has all the advantages of the other forms. Itis noted that various ways may be Worked out, and the invention is not to beV limited to the detailed methods shown, for so long as the edges of the tie i are reinforced so as to prevent the tie from twisting or pulling out of shape, and also to prevent Y slippage of the tie, the advantages of the improved tie will be had. Although We have shown the reinforcing along the transverse edges as Well as along the longitudinal edges in Figures 1 to 3, it is pointed out that our improved results may be obtained by merely reinforcing the longitudinal edges' alone. Y ,Y
In Figure '7, still another form of the invention Y is shown. In'this form, the cravat l0 is constructed similar to that shown in Figure 1 Intermedate its ends, the edges of the tie are cut at 20 so as to form an uneven edge. This uneven edge is approximately at the point that the tie is knotted and therefore, said uneven edges prevent a slippage of the tie. This form may, or may not have its longitudinal edges reinforced by the cord or braid, as in the other forms'.
What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is: Y
1. A cravat having its opposite longitudinal Vedges folded from end to end thereof, a reinforcing means located VWithin the folds from end to end thereof, and stitching closely adjacent to said reinforcing means for retaining said reinforcing means `within the folds.
2. A cravat having its opposite longitudinal edges folded from end to end thereof, a reinforcing means comprising ra cord located Within the folds from end to'end thereof, and stitching closely adjacent to said reinforcing means for retaining said reinforcing means Within the folds.
3. A cravat folded throughout its opposite longitudinal edge portions from end to end thereof, and a reinforcement located within the folds andY extending from end to end thereof, said folded portions being stitched throughout Vthe length thereof to bind the folds and retain thereinforcing element in place.
