Washington, D. C.
Application October 9,
4 Claims.
My invention relates to improvements in tie supports, and it consists in the constructions, arrangements and combinations herein described and claimed. l
The objects of the invention are to provide means for supporting a tie which can be secured to a collar button with the kno-t of the tie below and outside the outer fold of the collar and when so secured, pushed up into position between the neck band and outer fold of the collar.
The invention consists essentially of a tie supporting member and a button engaging member slidably mounted thereon with interlocking means between the two members permitting the tie support member to be adjustably retained in position to accommodate various heights of collars. Additio-nal objects, advantages, and features of invention will be apparent from the following description considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a front view of the invention showing the manner in which the tie is secured.
Figure 2 is a rear view of the device, the tie having been removed.
Figure 3 is a sectional View taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is an enlarged View of the tongue and pawls.
Figure 5 is a view showing a modification of the hook asadapted for attachment to the button used where the collar is attached to the shirt.
In the drawing like characters ofv reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
The numeral I indicates generally the body of the tie support which is substantially in the form of a letter T and is suitably curved along its upper edge to receive the folds of the tie necessary for the formation of the knot. The stem 2 of the body is U-shaped in cross section and the top or substantially horizontal member 3 is of sufcient length to bridge the opening of the collar and contact with the ends of the fold.
Mounted in the base of the stem 2 is a guide generally indicated by the numeral 4 which is detachably held in position by a round head screw 5 engaged in a threaded aperture of the stern. The guide 4 is. formed from a strip of sheet material bent upwardly and inwardly on opposite side edges to provide guides 6 defined by cover strips l. The lower end of the guide has a lip la adapted to engage beneath the lower edge of the stem 2 for a purpose presently to be explained. The upper endsof the cover strips 'I are provided upon their under faces with a sawtooth rack 8.
1937, Serial No. 168,269
A slide 9 is provided, formed from a single strand of resilient wire, bent intermediate its length to provide an eye I@ and bent again to define a bight II formingtwo pairs of parallel extended outer and inner legs I2 and I 3, the legs 5 I3 being disposed in respective guides 6. The bight portion II provides suilicient resilience tending to spring the legs I2 in a direction away from the legs I3 for a purpose as will presently appear. 10
Preferably vthe eye Ill will be slightly oiset as may' be seen in Figure 3, permitting ready engagemerit with a collar button and immediately below the eye I Il a plate I4 is rigidly secured tothe legs I2. The plate includes a tongue I5 eX- 15 tended upwardly and inwardly between the legs, terminating in laterally projected pawls I6. The pawls I B are of a length to slide within the guides 6 and are set at a slight angle so as to engage the teeth of the rack 8 to hold the slide at an 20 adjusted position.
The bight portion II of the slide spaces the legs I2 and I3 sufficiently to clear `the head of the screw 5 but are spaced close enough to prevent the screw from becoming detached from the 25 slide, when the latter is removed from the body, which will be necessary when securing a tie to the body.
In the modification shown in Figure 5, the legs I2 include a downwardly turned hook I'l for at- 30 taching the device to a shirt having an attached collar.
When applying a tie to the support body, the screw 5 is loosened, permitting removal of the guide 4, permitting a tie to be draped around 35 the body to form a knot, and such arrangementV of the tie should be such as not to conceal the aperture of .the body. The guide 4 is now placed in position in the stem 2 and the screw tightened in the aperture. From consideration of Figure 3 it will be seen that the upper end of the guide 4 impinges upon the tie engaged therebeneath and that the tongue 'la engages the lower end of\ the stem 2, holding the slide in proper position.
To attach the tie support to a collar button, the slide Q is moved longitudinally along the guide E so that the eye I0 is presented above the horizontal members 3, and this may be readily accomplished by pressing inwardly upon the legs I2 releasing the pawls I6 from engagement with the teeth of the rack. In the raised position, the eye may be readily engaged upon a button and it is then only necessary to slide the body I with 55 the tie attached upwardly to the desired point of adjustment.
The plate I4 is provided upon its outer face with a plurality of notches Ma whereby ready grip may be had for imparting movement to the slide.
By providing a vertical adjustment between the eye I il and the body I, the tie can be in close contact with the fold seam of the collar irrespective of the distance between said seam and the buttonhole of the collar.
While I have shown and described preferred constructions of the device, this is by way of illustration only, and I consider as my own all such modifications in structure as fairly fall within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:-
1. A tie support comprising a body having lateral extensions and a U-shaped stem for support of a tie, said stem having a threaded aperture, a guide positioned in the stem and having an aperture in registry with the aperture of the stem, a screw engaged in the aligned apertures for retention of the guide, a slide in the guide longitudinally adjustable, and said slide having means for securement to a collar button.
2. A tie support comprising a body having lateral extensions and a U-shaped stem for support of a tie, said stem having a threaded aperture, a channel shaped guide positioned in the stern and having an aperture in registry with the aperture of the stem, a screw engaged in the aligned apertures for retention of the guide upon an interposed portion of a tie, a slide in the guide, pawl and ratchet means between the slide and the guide for maintaining the slide in adjusted positions, and said slide having means for attachment to a collar.
4. The structure of claim 3 in which the last named legs are connected with the rst named legs by bight portions.
