BUTTON FASTENER- PatentedAipri. 6, 1886.-

BUTTON-FASTENER.
SPECIPTCATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 339,467, dated April 6. 1886.
Application filed Decemlier'lfi, 1885. Serial No. 185,737. No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, James RAMSAY, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga'and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Button-Fasteners; and I dohereby 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 pertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in buttonfasteners; and it consists in certain features of construction and in combination of parts hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a view in perspective, showing a button with a single-wire fastener embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is aview in perspective, showing a double-wire fastener, both the single and double wires beingbent around a crossbar of the buttons. Fig. 3 shows a double-wire fastener in which the wires pass through holes or eyes in the button. Fig. 4 is the same as Fig. 2, except the button is turned in a different position to show more clearly the hooks. Fig.
5 is an elevation in section on the line a: at, Fig. 1; Fig. 6 is a side elevation showing the device that engages the button in place of a button-hole. Fig. 7 is a view in perspective,showing my improved device attachedt to a garment.
A represents the button, that may be of the variety having across-bar, a, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and i, or having'eyes a, as shown in Fig. 3.
B are the wires forming the buttoniastener.
. A single wire may be employed, as shown in Figs. 1 and 5, or two wires, as shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 4. A wire, B, is bent nearly double and the ends pressed down astride the bar a or through holes a, as the case may be. A thin metal plate, (I, is provided with holes for the passage of the ends of the wire or wires B. The wires after passing through the plate are bent sharply outward, so that the plate is held firmly against the bottom of the button, and at the same time the plate prevents any lat eral strain on the button. As the holes of the plate fit the wire snugly, the latter are held firmly in place. \Vithout the plate, the wire being usually much smaller than the eyes or Y openings through the button, there would be nothing to hold the parts firmly together. The one end of said wire B is pointed, as at I), and the otherend of the wire is bent to form the hook I), so that these parts of the fastener resemble the ordinary safety-pin.
D is a loop of wire bent in the form shown in Fig. 6, one end of the wire being pointed at d, and the other end forming a hook, d. This hook is secured to the cloth, as shown in Fig. 7, and furnishes a substitute for a but ton-hole. These devices are designed more especially for overalls, jackets, &c., that are worn principally for rough work, where buttons may be torn off and buttonholes torn out at any time.
Buttons with my improved fasteners at tached, and loops that are substantially detachable button-holes, may be carried in the pocket and applied in a moment when wanted.
My improved button-fastener, I think,would be favorably considered by gentlemen, most of whom would rather carry one or two such slight articles in their pockets ready for use than endure the discomfort of walking in the streets with a suspender-button off.
What I claim is- 1. The combination, with a button, one or more wires passing through the eyes or astride the cross-bar of the button, said wires being bent as shown, having substantially the form of an ordinary safety-pin, of the loose plate 0, perforated as described and located next below the button, said wires passing through the perforations of said plate, the parts being arranged substantially as set forth.
2. The combination of a button, a perforated plate, wires passing over the bar of the button and through the button and plate, said wires formed into a loop, and an independent loop having a pointed end and hook arranged, substantially as described, for engaging the button in place of a button-hole.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification, in the presence of two witnesses, this 9th day of December, 1885.
JAMES RAMSAY.
