COLLAR AND OOMBINATION OF SHIRT AND DETACHABLE COLLAR Filed Nov. 9, 1938 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 R5 L L we :a INVENTOR. l Alan M Mxmum iii 553 BY I ATTORNEYS Patented July 4, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE COLLAR AND COMBINATION OF SHIRT AND DETACHABLE COLLAR 3 Claims.
My invention relates to a new and improved collar and to a new and improved combination of a shirt and a detachable collar.
One of the objects of the invention is to pro- 5 vide a collar which may be detachably connected to the neckband of a shirt, so as to simulate the appearance of an attached collar.
Another object of the invention is to provide a construction whereby the collar is detachably connected to the neckband of a shirt, by means of detachable fastening means which can be readily removed so that the shirt and collar can be separately laundered and ironed while the fastening means are removed therefrom.
Another object is to provide an improved collar construction for securing the above-mentioned results.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device whereby the collar can be detachably connected to the neckband of the shirt, before the wearer puts on the shirt.
Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawings which illustrate preferred embodiments thereof, it be- 25 ing understood that the above statement of the objects of my invention is intended generally to explain the same without limiting it in any manner.
Fig. l is an elevation of the improved collar,
30 part of the representation of the inner member of the collar being broken away, so as to show the intermediate member of the improved collar.
Fig. 2 is an elevation showing the neckband of the shirt to which the improved collar of Fig. 1
' can be attached.
Fig. 3 is an elevation showing the assembly of the collar and the neckband of the shirt. Part of the representation of the inner member of the collar has been broken away.
Fig. l is a perspective view showing the assembly of the neckband and the collar, part of the representation of the collar having been broken away so as to show the neckband.
Figs. 5 and 6 are diagrammatic cross-sections on the lines 5-5 of Fig. 1 and 66 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 7 is a perspective View showing the neckband of the shirt unfastened and illustrating how the coilar can be connected to the neckband of the shirt, before the wearer puts on the shirt.
Fig. 8 is an elevation of the collar of the preceding figures, the inner member being shown parallel to the outer member, part of the intermediate member being bent away from the inner member.
Fig. 9 is an elevation generally similar to Fig. 8, of a different embodiment of the collar.
Figs. 19 and 11 are respectively sections on the lines l-lll of Fig. 9 and Il-ll of Fig. 9.
The shirt S has a neckband H] which is provided with the usual button [4 and the usual closure buttonhole l 2. In addition, the neckband if! has auxiliary buttonholes ll adjacent the corners of said neckband and close to the button M and the closure buttonhole l2. Said neckband is provided with additional auxiliary buttonholes Ila which are close to and which are spaced equally from the vertical median line of said neckband.
The collar C comprises an outer member I, an inner member 2, and an intermediate member 3. All the parts of the collar may be made of any suitable fabric or fabrics. As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the width of the intermediate member 3 is less than the width of the outer member I, and members 2 and 3 have substantially the same width. The outer member I is provided with a reinforcing lining member L, which may be made of a stiffer fabric than the other portions of said collar. Said lining member L can extend into the fold-portion of the collar or it may be confined to the outer member i, so that said lining member L does not extend into the fold-portion of the collar.
Referring particularly to Fig. 10, each of the members i and 2 and 3 is made of two pieces of fabric, save for the additional lining member L of the outer member In Fig. the righthand outer layer of the member I is integral with the right-hand layer of the member 3. The lefthand layer of the member 3 is formed by inwardly folding the respective piece of fabric which is used for making said member 3, and the righthand outer layer of member I. Likewise, the left-hand cuter piece of fabric of member I in Fig. 10 is: continued to form the left-hand layer of the member :2, and the right-hand layer of the member 2 is formed by inwardly folding said piece of fabric. Hence the collar shown in Fig. 10 comprises two pieces of cloth and the lining member L.
Said two pieces of cloth are connected to each other at the fold line of the collar by means of stitches 6. The bottom walls and the lateral walls of the layers of the member l are connected to each other respectively by bottom stitches 4 and by lateral stitches 4a and 4b. Lateral walls 2a and 2b of the cloth layers of the member 2 are connected to each other by lines of stitches and the cloth layers of member 3 are connected to each other like the layers of member 2. The lining member L is Connected to the layers of the member I by means of said stitches 4, 4a and 4b. The stitches (i may pass through the lining member L or said stitches B may skip said lining member L if it is made sufliciently narrow.
The inner member 2 is provided with buttonholes 8 and 8a at the corners thereof which are adjacent the foldline, and it is also provided with buttonholes 9 and 9a adjacent the bottom edge thereof. The intermediate member 3 is likewise provided with corresponding buttonholes 8, 8a, 9 and 9a. When the collar is applied to the neckband of a shirt, the buttonholes 8, 8a, 9 and 9a are arranged in respective pairs which register with each other. As shown in Fig. 3, the neckband of the shirt projects beyond all the members of the collar.
Buttons B can be passed through the auxiliary buttonholes H of the neckband l6, and through the aligned pairs of buttonholes 8 and 8a of the members 2 and 3. Other buttons B can be passed through the buttonholes Ha of the neckband l0 and through the aligned pairs of buttonholes 9 and 9a. The neckband I0 of the shirt is therefore located between the inner member 2 and the intermediate member 3, and the intermediate member 3 and the outer member i are then located directly adjacent each other, as shown in Fig. '7. The buttons B which pass through the pairs of buttonholes adjacent the fold line of the collar, keep the collar in snugly folded position. The buttons B which pass through the button holes Ha, keep the collar firmly in position at the rear of the neckband Id.
The buttons thus remain invisible and the collar can be applied to the shirt while the shirt is open.
In the embodiment shown in Fig. 11 the members 2 and 3 are made by suitably folding a single piece of fabric which is separate from the two pieces of fabric which are used in making the outer member I. The outer member I can also be formed by suitably folding a single piece of fabric. The construction shown in Fig. 10 is preferred, because the fold is much less bulky than in Fig. 11. In Fig. 11 the fold of the collar has eight layers of fabric when the collar is applied to the neckband of the shirt. In Fig. 10 the collar has only six layers of fabric at the fold line thereof when it is applied to the neckband, four of these layers being located at one side of the neckband and two of these layers being located at the other side of the neckband.
I prefer to use fastening members B which are wholly detachable from the shirt and from the collar, so as to avoid interfering with the wash ing and ironing of the collar and of the shirt. However, the invention is not limited to fastening means which are wholly detachable from the shirt or fro-m the collar. For example, the neckband 56 can be provided with additional buttons which will pass through the buttonholes of the collar. Likewise, I can use snap fasteners and the like.
As shown in Fig. 4, the inner ends of the buttons B will contact with the neck of the wearer. This could be eliminated by providing the wall of the member 2 which is adjacent the neckband ill, with buttons which can be passed through the buttonholes of the neckband l0 and the buttonholes of the intermediate member 3.
Referring to Fig. 10, it is clear that the righthand layer of the member 2 could be connected to 'the left-hand layer thereof by means of ad.-
hesive or the like, independently of the stitches 6, so that said right-hand layer would not extend inwardly of the stitches 6. The left-hand layer of the member 3 could be connected in like manner to the right-hand layer thereof. As previously noted, the width of the lining L could be decreased so that the stitches 6 would skip the upper edge of the lining L. This would provide a very sharply defined fold line of minimum bulk. Since the fold-portion of the members l and 2 consists of a single continuous layer of fabric which forms the visible fold-portion of the collar, it is possible to modify the construction of the members 2 and 3 greatly without detracting from the appearance of the collar.
Either the buttonholes of the inner member and of the intermediate member, or the buttons B, can be designated as means whereby said in ner member and said intermediate member can be connected to the neckband of a shirt which is located between said inner member and said intermediate member.
Referring to Figs. 10 and 11, it is noted that the three members of the collar are connected by stitches 6 or other suitable connecting means at a common fold zone. Said members are free from each other save at said common fold zone.
I claim:
1. In combination with the neckband of a shirt, a collar having an outer member and an intermediate member and an inner member, said neckband being located between said inner member and said intermediate member, means adapted detachably to connect the neckband to said intermediate member and to said inner member,
said neckband extending longitudinally beyond the respective ends of the collar, the ends of said neckband having means adapted to connect the same to each other, said three members having a common fold zone and having connecting,
hole so as to close the neckband, said neckband y) having a first pair of auxiliary buttonholes adjacent the ends thereof and located above said button and said main buttonhole, said neckband also having a second pair of auxiliary buttonholes located inwardly of the first pair of auxiliary buttonholes and below said button and the main buttonhole, a collar comprising an outer member and an inner member and an intermediate member, said outer member and said inner member having buttonholes which are arranged in aligned pairs, the neckband being located between the inner member and the intermediate member, each auxiliary buttonhole of the neckband being in registration with one of said pairs, detachable buttons connecting the neckband to the collar through the auxiliary buttonholes of the neckband and the respective aligned pairs of the buttonholes of the collar, the button of the neckband and the main buttonhole thereof extending longitudinally beyond said inner member and CTI first pair of auxiliary fastening means adjacent the ends thereof and located above said main fastening means, said neckband having additional auxiliary fastening means located inwardly of the first pair of auxiliary fastening means and below said main fastening means, a collar comprising an outer member and an inner member and an intermediate member, the neckband being located between the inner member and the intermediate member, said inner member and said intermediate member having collar fastening means constructed to cooperate With the first pair of auxiliary fastening means and with the additional fastening means so as to connect said inner member and the intermediate member to the neckband above and also below the main fastening means and between the main fastening means, the neckband projecting outwardly of the collar so that the main fastening means are located beyond the ends of the collar.
