METHOD OF ATTAC HING BUTTONS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 289,136, dated November 27, 1883. Application filed September 17, 1883. (No model.)
5 State of Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Method oI Attaching Buttons to Fabrics; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, ref erence being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures ofrcference marked thereon, which form a part of My invention has for its object to provide an improved method for attaching the buttons to fabrics or other materials; and it consists,
essentially, in securing a button-head, formed of leather, pulp, or other analogous material, to the desired fabric by means of a metallic staple, the prongs of which are first forced up through the fabric or material to which the button is to be attached, thence through the body of the button, and clinched upon the top surface thereof, all as will be hereinafter more fully described, and specifically designated in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a side view of the button and means for attaching the same; Fig. 2, a similar view as attached to a fabric; Fig. 3, a vertical section of the same, and Fig. 4 a vertical section of a modification thereof.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in the several figures.
In carrying out my invention the buttonhead a, which is provided with a rounded neck or shank, b, is formed of leather, pulp,
40 or other like material, and then dyed, stained,
or japanned in suitable colors to match or contrast with the material to which it is to be attached, said button-head a being formed solid throughout, without openings of any kind.
of a metallic staple, c, havinga flat retainingbase and I sharp projecting prongs, as fully shown in the drawings.
In the operation of attaching the button to the desired material the button is placed in the one jaw of a suitable setting-instrument, with its head portion resting in a die of corresponding shape, while the metallic staple c is adjusted in the opposite jaw of the setting-inserted between, the two jaws are closed together, thereby forcing the prongs of the stap1e up through the fabric or material, thence through the button-head, and clinching into button in place.
A modification of my invention is shown in Fig. 4, in which a groove, 11, of suitable shape, is formed in the upper port-ion of the buttonhead, and which is adapted to receive the clinched points of the metallic prong or prongs of the fastener when the two parts are con nected together.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is- That improvement in the art of attaching buttons to fabrics consisting in forcing the prongs of the fastener up through the fabric or material, thence through the solid buttonhead, and clinching the points of the prongs into the top surface thereof, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my presence of two witnesses.
