WITNESSES B. MANCHESTER.
DETAGHABLE BUTTON.
Patented Dec. 6,1-881.
YINVENTOR UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
BENJAMIN B. MANCHESTER, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
DETACHABLE BUTTON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 250,374, dated December 6, 1881.
Application filed April 20,1881.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, BENJAMIN B. MAN- CHESTER, of the city of Providence, county of Providence, and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Detachable Buttons; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
Detachable buttons have heretofore been made with posts, either solid or tubular, provided with recesses into which some springpressed catch could enter, and thus secure the shoe to the button. Such recesses, grooves, lips, or shoulders are liable to wear out, and the moment they are only slightly beveled the posts are liable to pull the spring-pressed clamps or catches apart and release the shoe.
My invention consists in a novel construction and arrangement of the catches and the spring for closing the same, as will be hereinafter described.
Figure 1 is a view of the improved detachable button. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same. Fig. 3is an enlarged view of one of the hinged catches and the pusher operating the same. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the shoe and the flattened tubular shank provided with apin or stay. Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the shoe and shank provided with a staple secured to the shoe.
In the drawings, (t represents the button; 11, the shoe. 0 is the shank secured to the shoe. It is of flattened tubular section. 61 is a flattened tubular post, within which the catches c are hinged on a. pin. These catches are provided with the hooks c, the stop 6 and either with the spring 6 or the pushers may be provided with coiled or other springs to hold them in the position of engagement. fis a pin secured in the shank c; or, in place of this pin f, a staple, f, may be used; or, if desirable, two pins or two staples may be placed into the shank 0, one near each end of the flattened tubular section, and a hook may be formed on theportion e of the catches, so that (No model.)
each catch will pass over a pin or staple, and thus hold the shoe to the button; but I prefer the arrangement shown in Figs. 2 and 4, in which the catches engage with a pin or staple placed on a line with the pin on which the catches are hinged.
g g are the pushers. Their inner ends are slotted to receive a projection of the catches c e, as is shown in Fig. 3.
When this button is to be secured to the shoe the pushers are pressed in and the catches are turned on their pivotal bearing sufficient.- ly to allow the pinf or the loop of the staple to enter between the same. When the pushers are released the springs bring the hooked ends 6 over the pin and secure the shoe.
The combination is strong, durable, and cheap. The catches are cut out of plate by dies and are readily secured. Thereis no tendency to separate them under strain, as the pivotal bearing and the pin or staple are on the same line, and the flattened tubular shank is an advantage,in that it holds thebottorn from turning in the button-hole.
To allow the pin or staple f to pass into the inner post the slot k is made into this inner post, and thus forms a guide for the pin or staple, and additional rigidity to the whole when secured.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. In a separable button, the combination, with the hollow post cl and the pivoted catches e, arranged to catch under a pin in a shoe-post, of the springs arranged behind said catches within their supporting-post, substantially as described.
2. In a separable button, the combination, with the hollow post d, of the catches e, pivoted to turn within said post, and provided with the stops 6 and books 6, and suitable springs for closing and pushers for opening.
said catches, substantially as described.
