1 Claim.
My invention relates to an attachment for soft fold collars affixed to the underside of the two respective ends thereof for the purpose of preventing the ends from curling upwardly, or buckling. It also serves to retain a tie in immobile position when the device is fastened to the customary collar button.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a device formed of two pieces of fabric, one
piece of which is sewed to the rear side of one 1 of the ends of a soft collar and the other piece sewed in a similar manner to the rear side of the other end, and provided with protruding upper portion in the turned down position of the collar, i. e. in the customarily worn position, for each complementary member, whereby when the said protruding portions are fastened to the conventional button, the device prevents buckling or curling of the ends of the collar. It is also an object of this invention to provide cooperating fabric members affixed permanently to the underside of the two respective collar ends, which, when a tie is worn, keep it snug and free from any displacement. These and other objects will be apparent from the appended disclosure taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a soft fold collar in normal position showing the device fastened over a collar button.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of two pieces of fabric cut in the desired shape and sewed as indicated in the dotted lines, for forming a half unit of the device.
Fig. 3 is a view of the same half unit as shown in Fig. 2, but turned inside out, ready for sewing to the underside of the collar.
Fig. 4 is a front and side view of one side of a soft fold collar in a raised position on a shirt, showing the attachment sewed to the underside of the collar.
Like reference characters denote like parts in the several figures of the drawings.
Describing my invention illustrated in the drawings, the attachment comprises two complementary members i. e. they bear the same relation as the right hand has to the left hand. One of these members, as shown in Fig. 1, is end portion of the soft fold collar represented on the right side, and the other is sewed in an identical relation to the complementary end portion of the collar represented on the left side. The attachment which is composed of two complementary parts or members 2 and 2' as indicated, is formed from two pieces of fabric, preferably made of the same color cloth as that of the collar to which it is sewed.
Referring to Fig. 2 of the drawing it will be seen that each collar attachment member is six sided, being composed of two pieces of suitable cloth of identically cut measurements. The two pieces are sewed along the dotted lines indicated close to the edges represented by the numeral pairs l9l0, lG-G, 4-H, "-3 and 3-H. There is no sewed edge close to the edge or side represented by the numerals Ill-l9.
After a complementary member 2 is thus sewed, it is reversed or turned inside out, to paraphrase the act in common vernacular. Then it has the appearance as shown in Fig. 3. This member is then sewed to the underside of the end portions l2 of the soft fold collar as shown in Fig. 4; the sewing lines of the union with the collar per se are shown in dotted lines 5 and 6. Either before attachment or afterwards, but preferably prior thereto, a button-hole is made and its edges sewed as shown at 8.
The other complementary member 2' is formed in an analogous manner and permanently affixed by sewing to the end portion of the other side of the collar per se. Whereas the edge adjacent the side l8l9 on each of said members may be sewed to the collar it need not be.
When the two complementary members are sewed to the respective collar end portions and the collar turned into the normal position, the device will have the position and configuration shown in Fig. 1. Whereas not shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing the upper protruding portion or set-off portion of each complementary member extends back of the respective collar edge on the opposite side, the protruding portions overlapping. The assumed position of this stud portion is shown at illi on the right and left sides respectively and lines connected to this.
From Fig. 4 it will be seen that the protruding or stud portion of the two complementary members of the soft fold collar attachment of the present invention is separate from the collar band 20 of the shirt. In the turned down position, when the protruding portions of the complementary devices are attached to a collar button 1, they partly come underneath the tie, forcing the latter against the collar. This keeps the tie snug and free from displacement.
Whereas I have explained the principle and construction of my invention and have illustrated and described what I consider to be its best embodiment it will be understood that the.
invention may be practiced otherwise than as shown illustrated and described. Accordingly I do not intend to be restricted in the scope except as set out in the appended claim.
I claim as my invention:
A soft fold collar with a folded-over portion having two free ends, two complementary and separate, unitary six-sided fabric attachments permanejntlysewed tothe rear side of each end respectively, which complementary fabric attachments extend rearwardly of the said free ends for a substantial distance and substantially for the full height of the folded over portion, said complementary members each having a free protruding portion, the protruding portion ex tending forwardly from the upper portion of each complementary member in turned-down position, and having its top edge in substantial alignment with the folded-over upper edge of the collar, and adapted to overlap between the 20 ends or the collar when the collar is being worn,
each protruding portion having a buttonhole adapted to be aligned with the button in the neckband of the collar.
