Description
'March 16, 1965 c. s. MARIEN NECKTIE HOLDER Filed Nov. 2, 1962 FlG.4
IN VEN TOR.
CLEMENT S. MARIEN BY ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,173,181- NECKTIE HOLDER Clement S. Marian, Mansfield, Mass., assignor to Swank, Inc., a corporation of Delaware Filed Nov. 2, 1962, Ser. No. 235,033 4 Claims. (Cl. 2449) This invention relates to a necktie holder of the type which will loosely embrace a four-in-hand tie so as to restrain the tie from lateral motion although permitting the tie to have lengthwise motion relative to the holder.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a necktie holder which may be adjusted as to Width for ,embracing ties of difierent widths so that it may closely confine the tie in its sidewise or lateral movement.
Another object of this invention is to provide an adjustable necktie holder which will be limited in its expanding movement so that it may control to some extent the encirclement of the tie.
Another object of this invention is to provide a necktie holder which will not only be adjustable as to size but will be retained in its position of adjustment so as to maintain this size relationship after it is adjusted.
Another object of this invention is to provide a necktie holder which will be of simple construction and relatively inexpensive.
Another object or" the invention is to provide a necktie holder which will have an attractive appearance when worn on the tie.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction as will be more fully described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIG. 1 is a front elevation of the tie holder alone and in relatively contracted position;
FIG. 2 is a similar view showing the tie holder expanded;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view on a larger scale illustrating the tie holder in position on the tie and as it would appear in use;
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of one of the members; and
FIG. 5 is a top edge view looking down on the holder from the top as seen in FIG. 3.
In proceeding with this invention, I provide a pair of arcuate members and dispose them in opposed relation so as to provide a closed loop. The members are pivoted adjacent one of their ends and overlap at their other ends so that by relative movement about their pivot the size of the loop may be expanded or contracted. At the pivotal ends some sort of teeth are provided so that when in frictional engagement the members will be held in the position to which they are adjusted, while at the other ends some sort of a limiting means may be provided so that the members cannot be expanded beyond their encircling arrangement. Any means may be provided for suspending these members from the shirt so that the tie may be loosely positioned through the loop formed by the members and restrained from lateral movement.
Referring now to the drawings, designates a clasp for engaging a shirt 11 at its edge. This clasp provides a front jaw 12 and a back jaw 13 having a handle 14 "ice which is pivotally related to the jaw 12. A spring 15 swings the jaws toward each other so as to grip the edge of the shirt 11. A ring 16 passing through an opening 17 in the jaw 12 serves to suspend the encircling loop members designated generally 18.
The encircling loop members comprise two members 19 and 20 which are similar, the member 19 being shown in FIG. 4 by itself as of arcuate shape. Each of these members has an enlarged end portion 21 which is provided with a plurality of teeth 22 about a pivot opening 23, while at the relatively free end 24 of each of the members there is provided a band 25. The shank connecting the two ends is designated generally 26 and, as before mentioned, is of arcuate shape.
The two members 19 and 20 are assembled in the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 so that the enlarged ends or head portions 22 overlap and the teeth 23 face each other, with the teeth of one of these members fitting in between the teeth of the other member. A hollow rivet 27 extends through the openings 23 of the heads 22 and is headed over as at 28 and 29 so as to hold the members in face to face relation. There is suflicient resilience or looseness at the heads of the rivet so that the shallow teeth may slide by each other and dispose the members 19 and 20 in diiferent relative positions of adjustment so as to contract or enlarge the encircling opening 30 between the members. The ring 16 is passed through the hollow rivet 27. A necktie 31 may be positioned through this opening 30. The opening 30 will be adjusted as to size so as to embrace ditferent widths of ties which may be passed therethrough.
The ends 24, 24' of the members 19 and 20 also overlap, and the band 25, 25' attached to the ends of these members embraces the opposite member; thus band 25 on end 24 embraces end 24 of member 20 and band 25' on end 24' embraces end 24 of member 19 as seen in FIG. 3 so that, as sliding of the end portions occurs, these end portions will be guided one with reference to the other by the bands 25, 25' and also limited in their expanding movement by the bands 25, 25 coming together, as shown in FIG. 2. Either in the extended position of expansion such as shown in FIG. 2, the contracted position as shown in FIG. 1, or in my intermediate position, the teeth 22 engaging one another will hold the parts in such adjusted position.
I claim:
1. A necktie holder comprising two arcuately shaped similar members arranged in opposed relation to provide an open loop for encircling a necktie, means to pivotally connect said members at one end with the other ends of the members overlapping in amounts depending upon the relative position of the members as swung about the pivoting means, means at the pivotally connected ends of the members to hold the members in different relative positions of adjustment, and means to support said members at their pivotally connected ends from a shirt.
2. A necktie holder as in claim 1 wherein said means at the pivotally connected ends of the members are enlarged and said enlargements are provided with interengaging teeth to hold the members in different relative positions of adjustment.
3. A necktie holder as in claim 1 wherein means are provided to limit the enlargement of the loop for relatively swinging the members about their pivot,
4. A necktie holder comprising two arcuately shaped similar members arrangedin opposed relation to provide an open loop for encircling a necktie, means to pivotally connect said members at one end of each member, with the other ends of the members overlapping in amounts depending upon the relative position of the members as swung about the pivoting means, means to limit the enlargement of the loop for relatively swinging the members about their pivoting means, said means comprising on the non-pivoted end of each member a band embracing the other member, said bands engaging to provide the limit, and means to support said members at their pivotally connected ends from a shirt.
