Figure v6-is a transverse-sectiona11viewthrough 'the tie, as seen on f-theline=66.of;1igurez2, 'and Figure?? is a similariviewgas seenronlztheline 'l--'l of Figure 2.
The Well known four-inlhandtieis iknown't'o vbe ltied in a definite manner -to produce :a -knot and the manner in which ith-isiisfaccomplished lis also so well known no-description:thereofc'nee'd be'here set forth. The size of -theknots resulting from the -tying of such 'ities f depends Jonvarious conditions. If the material. is quite. thin andi-there -is little or no lining in the tie, .'naturally the -knot will ybe-quite r-small. Even vwhen heavier Vvmaterials are usedMand when' linings are utilized, the .knots .may be --small if zthey ,are not formed in the proper place in the length of the i-tie. -Agaimafterfbeing Worn for somellengthiofLt-ime and knotted tightly over Aarperiod ofrtimethe material,- even Whenfreasonably'heavy and lined, @will lose its ability-to iorma .reasonably :large Kknot. The crushing-orthomaterialgoverra periol of time will prevent such .Llarge knots :being formed. Again,lthe manner, in fwhichthe matezrial isout andr'folded,l that is, Jwithzthe sidesedges Lof the tie substantially straight,.-although tending -to converge, will. also prevent:therordinaryffour- 41in-hand tie,- tiedin theusual manner, from; being lformedfwith a reasonably large knot.
'With the advent .of Vwhat is known as the spreadl collars, :that-is collars whereinf.the:,ta.bs 'are spread or direotedoutwardly towardltheir -en`ds,leaving a space or slot-between the upper portions of the tabs for the, reception off the-neck- -tie, the fashion of utilizing ties formedwithlarge knots f has prevailed, and i has Yevenlloeen decreed -by fashion stylists. V.Various y attempts havey been made to utilize the ordinary. four+inihand 1 tie .to -meetzthe conditionaliout-there'Y has been vonly one wayof accomplishingthe desired resultandlthfis hasv been to createwhat is knownas the Windlsor-knot. -This I isa large; full, -V-shapedknot, and may only be formed'lby' twisting and 'folding "thetie -in a particular manner, lwhich `:differs kmaterially from rthe mannerv in which `the Aordi 'nary foureinehand tie is' folded*- andl tied to provvduce'the usual'knot. lrInfact, the^formation of the Windsor knot is so complex that the average man cannot learn how to accomplish it, even after he has been tutored. Thus, although therel` is a great desire on the part of the purchasing public to utilize such knots in the use of four-inhand ties with spread collars, the use thereof is only had by the few who have learned the intricacies of the accomplishment. There is a desire, therefore, and a need for a tie which will, through the conventional folding of a four-in-hand, produce results in the form of a knot substantially the same as the Windsor knot, so that the public will have the benefit thereof without the difculties encountered in learning how to produce, and actually producing such a Windsor knot. My invention contemplates production of a tie to accomplish this result.
In describing the invention I shall refer to the drawing in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views and in which the numeral I designates the wide portion of a four-in-hand tie which forms the front flap when tied, the numeral 2 the neck portion of the tie and the numeral 3 the narrow or rear flap of the tie when used. Whereas the ordinary four-in-hand tie is cut and folded so that the side edges of both the narrow and wide portions thereof are straight, even though tending to converge toward the neck portion, my invention contemplates the cutting and the folding of the rn-aterial forming the wide portion of the tie on a curve or arc. This curve or arc is clearly shown in Figures l and 2 of the drawing and designated by the numeral 4. While the lower portions of the wide section 4 of the tie may be or appear to be straight or parallel, the same in fact are also curved. The principal portion of the curve extends from the widest portion of the section 4 to the neck portion 2. as it is this portion of the tie which is embodied in the knot to formed.
This tie is also provided with a lining 5, made of the usual or any desired material. The edges of this lining are also cut on a curve or arc as shown at E in the drawing, and this curve or arc is coincident to the curve or arc 4 on which the body of the tie proper is cut and folded. This liner 6 is stitched as shown at 'i to assist in the formation of a drape in the material below` the knot, and this particular feature is covered by Patent No. 2,123,900 and, therefore, does not specically form a part of this invention.
Also forming part of this invention, however, is the auxiliary or extra liner 8, which is a short section applied to the liner 5 at the widest portion of the tie between the neck portion 2 and the lower end of the liner, as best shown in Figure 2 of the drawing. The side edges of this auxiliary or extra liner 8 are also cut on an arc or curve as shown at 9 and the curvature is coincident to the curvature `of the liner 5. The liners 5 and 8 are stitched in piace within the folds of the body of the tie in the usual manner, as best illustrated in Figures 6 and 7 of the drawing.
Usually the body of a tie is made of silk, although synthetic materials have been and may be used in the embodiment of my invention. While as above, I have stated that the liners E and 8 may be made of the usual liner material, same may be made of any desired material, such as the material of which the tie proper is constructed. To be effective, for carrying out the purposes for which this invention is designed, the curvature of the body of the tie, the liner and the liner 8 must extend from a position at least at the bottom of the liner 3 and extend into the neck portion, as best shown in Figure 2 of the drawing.
When a tie, constructed as above described and shown in the drawing, is tied in the usual manner of a four-in-hand, it will automatically produce a large, full, V-shaped knot, substantially identical to the well known "Windsor knot. Thus -all who know how to tie the ordinary fourin-hand will be in position, with the`u`s`e of my improved tie, to achieve the results desired, namely produce a Windsor knot without actually learning the intricacies involved.
From the foregoing description of the construction of my improved tie, the method of making same and the application thereof to use will be readily understood, and it will be seen that I have provided comparatively simple, inexpensive and efficient means of carrying out various objects of the invention.
While I have particularly described the elements best adapted to perform the functions set forth, it is apparent that various changes in form, proportion and in the minor details of construction may be resorted to, without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the principles of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
l necktie of the four-in-hand type comprising an elongated body formed of fabric and having front and rear plies, said body having top and bottom end sections and a narrow intermediate section of appreciably less width than the endsections, the top section being of greater Width than the bottom section, said end sections having opposite side edges following elongated curves for a portion of their length and merging into side edges of the intermediate section, a fiat main liner formed of the fabric and extending longitudinally of said body between the front and rear plies thereof and having a portion passing through the intermediate section and along top and bottom sections of the body throughout the major portion of the length thereof and having side edges spaced inwardly a substantial distance from and in parallel relation to the curved side edges of the body and a one piece auxiliary liner formed of fabric and extending fiat against and secured to the wide end portion of the main liner throughout a major portion of said length thereof, the auxiliary liner having side edges spaced inwardly a substantial distance from and in parallel relation to the curved side edges of said main liner whereby said liners provide progressively increasing support for said top end section from the side edges thereof toward the longitudinal center line to permit the formation of a relatively wide V-knot having a smooth curved surface by tying a conventional four-in-hand knot.
