FIG. 7 is a transverse sectional view of the button protector on a button, showing the ap folded over the inner wall of the envelope.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF INVENTION In FIG. 1 of the drawings, I have shown a button protector 10 in the form of an envelope made from a single sheet of plastic material. The envelope has a ap 11 formed as a continuation of a front Iwall 12 of the envelope and bent from the front wall to be folded along an inner wall 13 of the envelope to retain a button thereto.
The envelope may be made from a single plastic sheet, which may be made from polypropylene, in which the flap is bent from the front wall of the sheet and the inner wall is bent from the opposite side of the front wall of the sheet to extend along the flap and form the pocket 15. The sheet of plastic material may also be made from an aromatic nylon paper known by the trade name as Nomex paper, or from polypropylene paper known by the trade names of Tyvek and Tyvar. The material should have sufficient exibility to accommodate ready folding of the flap over the inner wall of the envelope, but should also have sufficient rigidity to form a positive protector for the button.
As shown in FIG. 1, the inner wall 13 of the envelope is folded over the front wall of the envelope, for a portion of the length thereof, and is secured thereto as by laterally spaced rivets 1'6, 16 adjacent the outer end portion or top of the inner wall 13 and by rivets 17, 17, which also rivet a strap 19 to extend along the outside of the bottom portion of the inner wall 13 and afford a means for locking the ap 11 to extend over said inner wall 13.
The inner wall 13 has a slot 20 extending therealong from the open end of the pocket 15, and converging toward the center of said inner wall as it extends therealong. Said slot is shown as being generally V-shaped in form for ease in placing the button in the pocket 15, but may be a slit or of various other forms.
The opposite sides of the flap 11 converge to accommodate the ap to be tucked under the strap 19. The ap 11 also has a converging slot 21 formed therein extending inwardly therefrom from the free end thereof toward the center of said ap and registering with the slot when the ap is closed. The two slots 20 and 21 will thus extend along opposite sides of thread 22 or other securing means securing a button 23 to a garment 24, and serve to lock the button 23 in the pocket 15, as the ap 11 is moved into its closed position along the strap 19.
The oppositely facing converging slots 20 and 21, extending about the thread or securing means for the button 23 to a garment 24, thus serve as a lock, locking the button within the pocket 15 during the operation of cleaning the garment, and fully protecting the button from breakage both by cleaning and handling prior to and after cleaning.
In the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, the button protector is formed from a single sheet of plastic material folded in the form of au envelope and made from the same material as the 'button protector 10. In this form of the invention, an inner wall 25 of the button protector is folded partially along a front wall thereof and heat-sealed thereto along the edges of said inner wall. The inner wall is provided with a converging slot 26 like the slot 20 in the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. l, 2 and 3. A flap 27 is provided with a converging slot 29 like the slot 21. A snap fastener 30 of a conventional form, which may be of a type known by the trade name of Dot Snapper is secured to the inner wall adjacent the lower inner corner thereof, while a mating part 31 of the snap fastener is secured to the flap 27 adjacent an outer upper corner thereof when the ap is in its extreme open position, to be snapped into locking engagement with the snap fastener as the button protector is placed over a button and the slots 26 and 29 extend about the thread or other means securing the button to a garment. While I have only shown one snap fastener herein, snap fastenersmay be provided at each side of the flap and inner wall, although it has been found that one fastener is usually suicient to securely lock the button protector to a button during and after cleaning.
In FIGS. 6 and 7, I have shown still another form of button protector constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention and made from a single sheet of plastic material in which an inner wall 32 is folded over a front wall 33 of the button protector and a ap 35 is formed by folding the front wall of the button protector to extend along the inner wall 32. The inner wall 32 is secured to the front wall when folded thereover to form a pocket by means of rivets 36, positioned adjacent opposite sides thereof.
The means for fastening the flap to the inner wall is shown as comprising a nylon hook and pile fabric material in which a pile fabric 37 extends along the buttom portion of the inner wall 32 and is stapled or otherwise secured thereto, and pieces of nely woven nylon monoflaments formed into permanent thooks and designated generally by reference character 39, extend along the inside of the ap 35 when in its closed position, for registry with the pile fabric, and along opposite sides of a converging slot 40 in the ap 35. The slot 40 registers with a slot 41 formed in the inner wall 32 as the flap is folded over said inner wall and the hooked fabric is engaged with the looped pile fabric, to lock the flap to the inner wall and positively retain the button protector to a garment and button, to protect the button during cleaning of the garment. The loop pile fabric and the hook pile fabric may be made from materials known to the trade as Velcro," and similar to the material used in the button protector shown in an application Ser. No. 831,966, led by a Burton L. Rosenthal on `lune l0, 1969, so need not herein be shown or described further.
All three forms of button protectors shown herein operate on the same principles and are effective for protecting buttons on garments during cleaning, and differ principally in the manner of locking the flap to the inner wall of the evelope forming the button protecting pocket, and result in a button protector in the form of an envelope having a long life, which will withstand cleaning iiuids and have shock absorbing qualities suflicient to protect delicate breakable buttons from damage during machine cleaning of the garments to which the buttons are attached.
