BUTTON.
EPECIPICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 311,794, dated February 3, 1885.
Application filed November 18, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN E. TOTTEN, of North Attleborough, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Buttons; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention relates to sleeve buttons or studs of that class which is provided with a hinged shoe, whereby it may be more easily attached to or detached from the garment on which it is worn. It belongs more particularly to a form of that class in which-the shoe is composed of two hinged part-s constituting the shoe and the stud, said parts being hinged to the under side of the head, and being adapted to be brought together for insertion through the button-hole, or to be spread to form a shoe parallel with the face of the head for holding the button in place.
in the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a plan view of the bottom of the button with the parts open to form the shoe. Fig. 2 is a section on line 00 w of Fig. 1. Fig. is a like section showing the two hinged parts brought together for insertion through the button-hole. Fig. 4 is a perspective view ofthe shoe and post detached. Fig. 5 is a section of a modified form. Fig. 6 shows in perspective the modified form of post.
In these drawings, A represents the under plate of the button or stud, and B B represent the shoe parts, which form both the shoe and the post, and which are connected to the plate by a sliding hinge formed on the outside of the said plate. These shoe parts are formed, as represented in Figs. 2, 3, and 4, of a straight part, a, and a curved part, b; but this feature is not peculiar to my invention, the parts having been heretofore made of substantially such shape for insertion through the plate. In such cases the curved ends of the parts have been inserted through the plate and are preferably held by springs pressing against j the flat faces on the curved parts. My invention differs from this in using a peculiar construc tion of post upon the under plate of the head, combined with slots in the curved portion of I the parts which form the shoe, the curved parts being made without plane faces and be i'ng held by the post without springs. The form of post shown in Fig. 2 is marked (1. It is provided with curved wings 2 2, made a little wider than the post d. These wings are formed with or attached to the sides of the post at its upper end, and curving downward and outward. The shoe is provided with a longitudinal slot in width equal exactly to the thickness of the post, which slot extends through the curved lower end of the shoe part and terminates in the cross-slot in the upper or straight end of the shoe part. The slots are so proportioned to the post that when the post is inserted through these slots and the shoe parts are pulled up and turned outward the upper or straight ends of the shoe parts will be at right angles to the post and parallel to the face of the head. These parts are made to fit snugly together, and are held in place by their own friction. The post is so applied to the plate as to draw the curved part snugly against the plate. This also gives fric-v tional contact against that surface. straight ends are brought together, the curved ends turn against the under surface outward, and the button is in condition to be applied to the garment. After the shoe parts are ward and the curved side drawn inward to the plate until the outer ends are in plane parallel to that of the plate of the head.
The form of the post may be varied, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, in which the post consists of a strap, (1, cut away to form ears 33, which serve the same purpose as the curved wings on the post (1. The strap isbent in the form of a loop, and the ends are inserted through the bottom-plate of the head and secured on the inside, drawing the curved ends of the shoe-piece against the outer face of the plate, as in the form first described. The nar' row part of the strap that is cut away passes through the slots in the shoe parts, which are applied to it by the crossslot, as heretofore explained. The curved parts in both cases are on the outside of the plate, and there is \Vhen the thrust through the fabric they are turned outno cut-away portion or slot of the said plate In testimony whereof I have signed my name 10 exposed to View.
