Definitions

  • this knot is usually formed at a certain distance and often on one side, so that for placing it correctly in position, it is necessary to pull on the ends of the tie; but the latter, particularly under a stiff double collar, slides but with very great difficulty, and, as soon as the knot has been tightened, it is no 20 longer possible to modify its shape and position.
  • the present invention is adapted to remedy, for the stiff or soft double collar, to the inconveniences of the ready made bow, of the devices called systems, and also of the usual tie.
  • the invention substantially consists in forming the tie knot by means of a very simple auxiliary device constituted by the combination of two rings and of a resilient bond connecting them, and adapted to be passed around the neck, between the two thicknesses of the collar; the knot is made between the two rings and the elastic string holds this knot exactly in the right position.
  • Fig. 1 is an elevation of the new device.
  • Figs. 2 to 5 illustrate rings of various shapes.
  • Figs. 6 and 7 show a modification.
  • Figs. 8, 9 and 10 show how a sailor knot can be formed on the new device.
  • the new device substantially comprises two rings a connected by an elastic bond b.
  • These rings can be closed or slotted. Their shape is variable, as they can be round (Fig. 2), oval (Fig. 3) of pear shape (Fig. 4) of yoke shape (Fig. 5), etc. In any case, they can be provided with a recess 0 for the bond or string b connecting them.
  • the said rings are made either of metal, or of any other material allowing the tie to easily slide.
  • the bond b can be a string or twist made of any material, but a resilient material: rubberized fabric, rubber covered with a fabric or encased rubber, metallic spring, etc.
  • the rings are passed in loops (:1 at the ends of the elastic twist b (Fig. 1), or they are freely threaded on the twist which is closed on itself, as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the tie used is an ordinary tie, but the part corresponding to the neck portion is shorter than in the usual tie, to the extent of about 10 to centimeters, since on a great part of the neck portion the tie proper is replaced by the elastic twist. Moreover, on the market can already be obtained, at least concerning the sailor knot tie, shortened ties to be used with systems which are perfectly suitable for the subject-matter of the invention.
  • the tie is first passed in the rings a (Fig. 8), the short end e of the tie extending forwardly from one of the rings, and the long end f extending from the other ring, the right side of the tie being on the top. The whole is placed on the collar, as shown in Fi 8.
  • the sailor knot is made as usual, except that the long end, after having formed the loop g constituting the body of the knot (Fig. 9), is passed behind the portion h which is located between the two rings, so as to enclose this portion h in the knot.
  • Fig. 9 shows the portion 2' of the long end which covers said portion h and extends in the loop of the tie g. Owing to this manner of tying the tie, the new device gives the impression of a usual tie, this constituting one of the essential features of the present invention.
  • a first adjustment of the neck portion can be effected, if necessary, by pulling upon the under short end e, the device and the tie then occupying on the collar the position shown in Fig.
  • the device is slipped under the collar 9', by simultaneously using the thumb and index of each of the two hands for slightly pulling upon the rings and inserting them under the collar, this being very easily effected owing to the resiliency of the system; then, starting from each ring, the thumb is moved along the twist towards the rear portion of the collar; the twist is thus very easily pushed under the collar.
  • the tie is then finally adjusted as for an ordinary tie, but with much greater facility, as'the tie responds to the slightest action of the fingers.
  • the tension of the twist is adjusted, and by pulling upon the other end f, the knot is shaped to ones desire.
  • the knot can be undone as for an ordinary tie and tying it again when the tie is again to be used. But it is much more convenient to simply disengage the tie from the collar by simultaneously pulling upon the rings withthe thumb and index of each hand, or more simply by gently pulling at the same time on both ends e and i: then, owing to the elasticity of the twist, the tie is passed over the head and it is removed.
  • the reverse operation is effected, as if a ready made bow was used; but, in the present case, the knot is made by the user himself and can be easily readjusted, with the desirable stylishness and according to the users taste.
  • the time necessary for putting'on the tie is in any case less than with all previously existing devices. this representing an appreciable saving of time.
  • the new device is most advantageous, owing to the difficulties encountered, as above stated, for causing a tie to slide under such a collar, but it is to be understood that with a soft collar the new system is applicable in the same conditions.
  • the invention is applicable not only to the sailor knot tie, but also to all the other ties with which a knot is made by the user himself; if need be, ties of normal length might even be employed by neutralizing the excess of length of the neck portion by passing'several times between the rings.
