' atet 3,020,554 HOOK-N NECK-TIE Zdenek Wolanski, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Filed Sept. 8, 1958, Ser. No. 759,528 Claims priority, application Australia Sept. 19, 1957 2 Claims. (Cl. 2-153) Neck-ties of the drape or four-in-hand type (as distinct from bow ties) which can simply be hooked on to a short neck-band, without necessity for the wearer to knot the tie, have been previously proposed; but have not been wholly satisfactory mainly because they are fairly readily detectable as being ready-made.
The main object of the invention is to provide a preformed hook-on neck-tie which, in use, is realistically similar in appearance to an ordinary four-in-hand necktie knotted by the user.
A further object of the invention is to provide a hookon neck-tie which will retain well knotted appearance with certainty, and without developing unsightly creases as is common with prior knot-it-yourself neck-ties owing to the user not always getting the knot in the same part of the tie.
The invention may be summarized as consisting in a hook-on neck-tie comprising; a former consisting of a centre-block shaped to constitute a knot core, and a pair of oppositely projecting horns respectively able to enter between a collar peak and its neck-band; a drape adapted to be looped about the former; and a support hook having one end in the form of a tongue adapted to be engaged between a neck-band and a wearers neck, and its other end penetrated through said centre block and parts of said drape looped thereon, and adapted for secure attachment thereto.
An example of the invention is illustrated in the drawings herewith.
FIG. 1 is a front view of a tie (with the part of the drape broken away) looking at it in the approximate direction indicated by the arrow marked 1 in FIG. 3.
FIG. 2 is a rear view looking approximately in the direction of arrow 2 in FIG. 3.
FIG. 3 is a sectional side elevation taken on line 3-3 in FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a front elevation of the former.
FIG. 5 is a section taken on line 5-5 in FIG. 4.
FIG. 6 is a plan projected from FIG. 4.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a support hook.
FIG. 8 is a perspective view of an abutment and spacer plate which, for preference, is associated with the support hook when it is applied to the former and drape.
The former, illustrated mainly in FIGS/4 to 6, consists of centre-block 9 having prong receiving holes 10 extending through it, and a pair of oppositely projecting horns 11. The block, including front and back flanges 12 and 13 respectively, is shaped to constitute a knot core and the horns are each adapted to engage respectively between a collar peak and its neck-band.
The drape 14 may be made substantially the same as an ordinary four-in-hand tie. It is applied to the former by laying it over the front flange 12, looping it about the back of one of the horns 11, bringing it laterally across the front of the former to provide knot front face 15, looping it about the second horn and then tucking the narrow end 16 downwardly between the former and the face :15.
The support hook (see FIG. 7) has one end 16 in the form of a tongue adapted to be hooked over a shirt neck-band when applied to a drape covered former as shown in FIG. 3. The other end of the support hook, comprising prongs 17, is penetrated through some of the drape layers and also the centre block of the former by way of the holes 10 therein. After insertion of the prongs 17 as shown in FIG. 3, their emergent ends are bent over as indicated at 18. To prevent the drape portions pierced by the prongs riding past the support hook shoulders 19, a bearer plate 20 is preferably applied as a double ended washer to the prongs 17 prior to penetration thereof through the former and the drape portions looped about it.
The former may be a plastics moulding, and if a relatively soft plastics material is selected for this moulding, a second bearer plate such as 20 may be applied to the emergent ends of the prongs 17 before they are bent over as indicated at 13.
I claim:
1. A hook-on neck-tie comprising; a former consisting of a center-block shaped to constitute a knot core and a pair of oppositely outwardly projecting horns respectively adapted to enter between a collar peak and its neck-band, said center block including a pair of holes extending through the body thereof, a drape looped about said former, and a support hook having one end in the form of a tongue for engagement between a neck-band and a Wearers neck, and its other end consisting of a pair of prongs inserted within and extending from said holes formed in said center block, said prongs penetrating parts, of said drape looped about said former and securely holding said drape to said former, and said prongs having the terminal ends thereof emergent from said holes and turned sidewards.
2. A neck-tie according to claim 1 wherein said support hook carries a bearer plate mounted thereon between said tongue and said prongs, said bearer plate abutting the portion of said drape looped about said centre block and penetrated by said prongs.
