JOHN CONLEY, OF SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
BUTTON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 319,790, dated June 9, 1885.
Application tiled October 13, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN A. GoNLnY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Springfield, in the county of Harnpden and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Buttons, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in vide an improved button of that clas called detachable buttons, or those which are adapted to be secured to wearing-apparel and easily separated therefrom without sewing or cutting stitches, and one which is entirely free from complicated mechanism in its construction, and hence is economically made, and is not liable to injure a button-hole in which it is held by putting it in and taking it out.
In the drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a side view of a button embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the rear side. Fig. 3 is a side view of the stud or shoe of the button and a part of the stud-shank.
In the drawings, a is the disk or other formed face part of the button. 0 is the studshank fixed to the rear side of the face a, and b is the stud or shoe of the button, of disk form, fixed on the opposite end of the shank c to the face a.
The face a of the button may be of disk form, as shown, or of any other fanciful suitable shape.
The shoe or stud bhas its face which is opposite to the rear side of the face a made, preferably, in the same plane as the side of the latter, and its outer face made, preferably, of convex or slightly convex form, as shown.
After the button is made, as above described, from vegetable ivory, hard rubber, or other plastic or non-plastic suitable material, a slot, 6, is cut in the edge of the stud b from the periphery of the latter to or near the side of the shank o, as shown. The said slot e is so cut as to leave two opposite'sides thereto, which stand at an incline to the inner opposite faces of the stud b and the face a, and forming two points, d and 0, on the stud at the outer end of said slot, which points are in the plane of the border or periphery of the stud b.
In Fig. 2 the direction of the said slot 6 is indicated by a mark or lines extending from the slot across the outer face of the stud b,- but it is not essential to the operation of the slot that it be out beyond the line of the side of the shank c, or as deep as is the width of the border of the stud around said shank. inner opposite faces of the slot 6 are parallel with each other.
In operating the abovedescribed button to attach it to cloth or leather or similar flexible fabric, in which is formed a button-hole or slot to receive the stud?) and close around the shank c, the button is held on the fabric with the stud upon the button-hole, and the edge of the latter is pressed toward the under side of the face a, and then by turning the button the point (1 catches under the said edge of the button-hole, and the edge entering the slot 6 lets point d pass under the fabric, and by continuing to turn the button to complete about one revolution thereof the stud 1) passes through the button-hole without injury to the latter, because it has not been subjected to any undue strain.
The button is detached by turning it in the opposite direction, catching point 0 over the edge of the button-hole.
It will be observed that the stud bis formed with fabric-engaging points (I and 0, neither of which is out of the plane of the periphery of the stud, and hence the point d,which,when the button is worn on a cuff or elsewhere where it comes directly in contact with the person, might be a source of annoyance or inconvenience, is in this construction so formed as to entirely avoid that.
I am aware that buttons resembling mine in many particulars have been known; but in all of those with which I am acquainted the engaging-points or the edge next the slot in the stud is out of the plane of the surface of the stud or out of the line of the periphery. My construction avoids projections from the surface of the stud, and thus makes a more comfortable button to wear, and one less likely to abrade the surface with which the stud 'en gages than if projections were permitted.
Having thus described my'invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,
The
A button consisting of a face part and a slot, the points and edges bounding the slot stud part fixed to and united by an intermebeing in the plane of the surface of the stud, IO diate shank, substantially as described, said substantially as set forth. stud having a slot in its border extending to 5 or near to the shank, whose inner opposite JOHN CONLEY' sides are parallel with each other and stand Witnesses; at an incline to the inner face of the stud, and H. A. CHAPIN,
having points at the outer extremity of said J. D. GARFIELD.
