FASTENER FOR GLOVES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 368,347, dated May 17, 1887.
Application filed February 12,1887. Serial No. 227,356. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that I, SAMUEL W. SnoRnY, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, a citizen of the United States, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fasteners for Gloves and other Articles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specilication,in explaining its nature.
The invention is an improvement upon that described in my Patent No. 352,271, and it relates to means for fastening the ball receiving or holding part of a member of a fastener to the fabric or material with which it is used.
The invention comprises the part of the member of the fastener which carries, supports, or holds the ball-receiving device, and which, when fastened to a fabric, material, or glove edge, is upon the under surface thereof, and aholding-bead, preferably in the form of an annular ring and having prongs extending preferably from its inner edge, which bead is adapted to bear upon the outer surface of the fabric, material, or glove edge, and is of asize sufficient to receive the washer or plate which carries the ball-receiving device and also the material thereon, and which is united to the edge of said plate by prongs or fasteners which extend from the head or ring through the material and slots or holes formed in the edge of said plate, the ends of said prongs,when formed upon the bead or ri If g or secured thereto, preferably being turned inward into the cavity of the washer or plate.
These are the essential features of the invention. The invention relates,however, to various other features of less importance, which will hereinafter be described.
- In the drawings, Figurel is a view in plan ofa blank from which a pronged annular bead or ring is formed. Fig. 2 shows said blank after it has been submitted to the operation of apunch, whereby port-ions of the blank have been re moved to form without material wastea blank having prong-forming sections integral there with. Fig. 3 shows in section this blank after it has been submitted to a further forming operation and in its complete form. Fig. 4 is a plan of a blank from which the washer or plate for supporting the ball-receiving section of the fastener is made. Fig. 5 shows it after it has been submitted to a suitable forming operation to provide it with a rounded or dome-shaped section having a continuous flange and forming a cavity adapted to receive the device for holding the ball of the other member of the fastener. Fig. 6 is a plan view showing this washer or plate as provided with. the holding device described in my said patent, and as also having slots or holes for the reception of the prongs of the fastening-ring. Fig. 7 is a view in plan of the said part inverted. Fig. 8 shows the position of the parts in relation to each other and before they are secured together and to the fabric or material. Fig. 9 represents the parts as secured together to the fabricor material and also the ball member of the fastener. Fig. 10 is a plan view to show the bead and ring when secured to the fabric. Fig. 11 shows the two members of the fastener together. Figs. 12, 13, 14-, and 15 represent the employment or use of an ornamental cap, preferably of metal, adapted to be placed over the material or fabric within the line of the holding ring or bead and having a flange or points which extend under the edge of said flange. Figs. 16, 17, and 18 show the ring or bead as provided with inte gral metal sections shaped to ornamental form; Fig. 19 represents the cap-plate as supporting a socket for receiving the ball member of the fastener instead of the wire-holding device of Figs. 7 and 9.
The blank represented in Fig.1 is submitted to the operation of suitable dies, which form thereon, first, the ring a, and, second, the two or more prong-forming sections, a, which eX- tend inward from the inner edge of the ring. This ring and the prongs are then submitted to a further forming operation, whereby the ring preferably is struck up or pressed to a curved or rounded form in cross-section and the prongs bent or turned in relation to the inner edge of the ring, so as to bring their shanks under the ring, and preferably in a central position in relation to each edge thereof. (See Fig. 3.) This arrangement of the prongs is desirable, because the strain of the material against the fastener will not then be sufficient to cause an opening of sufficient size to extend from the prongs outward beyond the outer edge of the ring. This complete ring, binding-piece, or bead I have lettered A. The washer or plate B is well shown in Figs. 5, 6, and 7. It is formed from the round blank shown in Fig. 4 by Suitable forming-dies or by spinning, and in its complete shape has the dome or rounded section 1) extending from its lower edge. It may support the ball-holding wires 1), as shown in Fig. 6, or a socket, b", as shown in Fig. 19, or any other holding device adapted to embrace or hold the ball or equivalent member of the fastener. It also has formed in it the holes I), which are placed close to or upon the inner edge of the flange, reference to which will hereinafter be made; and the washer or section bis so proportioned to the inner edge of the holding-ring A that it will, when the material is upon or covering it, extend through the ring, or so as to bring the material slightly above the upper surface of the ring, and the ring will hug the dome and flange very closely. The washer, excepting where perforated for holding a socket or similar holding device, as represented in Fig. 19, is preferably imperforate, excepting as above specified.
To secure the parts together, the ring is placed above thewasher or plate,as represented in Fig. 8, the prongs being in a position over the material to enter the holes b. The material is not otherwise perforated, and, as above I remarked ,the washer or plate preferably is imperforate. The parts are then brought together, the prongs enter the holes, and their inner ends are turned upward and inward into the cavity of the plate or washer, and by arranging the holes I) in the flange, as above indicated-that is, upon the inner corner, instead of in the flat part of the flange the prongs may be turned upward into the cavity and be above the lower level of the flange, so that a smooth under surface is given to the fastening, as no portion of the prongs will extend belowthe under surface of the flange. This construction is represented in Fig. 9.
O is the ball member of the device. Any equivalent for this member of the fastener,
' however, may be employed. By the use of this edge fastening of the washer or plate to the imperforate material by a pronged ring a very strong union of the parts to the material is obtained, because the direct strain or draft of the other member of the fastener upon them is not brought directly upon the prongs, but
upon the side of the rounded portion :of the washer or plate itself that is, the material being imperforate, covering the entire dome or upper surface of the washer or plate, and be ing drawn down upon the dome by the metal binding-ring, causes the strain of draft upon the fastener to be upon the washer or plate and to be distributed-upon a large area thereof, and of the material, rather than upon the prongs, the prongs themselves acting in a secondary capacity, in that they serve not to re ceive the strain or pull upon the material, but simply to hold the two parts of the fastener and produces a very desirable finish, in that 7 when a ring or bead only is used it exposes the material in a rounded or curved shape and bounded only by a narrow metal surface. (See Figs. 10 and 11.) \Vhere a metal cap or finish over the material inclosed by the ring or bead is desired, a separate cap may be formed, having a flange or points to extend under the edge of the ring, as represented in Figs. 12, 18, 14, and 15, in which figures 0 represents such finished cap.
The form of the cap before it is applied is represented in Figs. 14 and 15.
Instead of a separate cap,the blank for forming the ring and prongs may have its central sections not removed, excepting for the purpose of forming the prongs, and this central section will, then be curved, and may be stamped, impressed, or cut to form any suitable design.
I would say that I do not confine myself to the use of prongs formed upon the ring A, as described, as they may be formed separately and soldered or otherwise attached thereto; or they may be formed integral with or attached to the flange of the washer or plate, and pro; ject upward into slots formed in the ring to receive them; but I prefer the constructionfirst described,in that it is cheap and provides a ring with a continuous unjointed surface.
Havingthus fully described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States* 1. The improvement in fastenersfor gloves and other articles, comprising the washer or plate B, supporting a ball receiving and holding device and fastened to the material by the flanged bead or ring A,placed upon the opposite side of the material, and having prongs which extend through the material and cap and are turned upon its under surface, as and for the purposes described.
2. The combination, in a fastener, of the washer or plate 13, supporting a ball-holding device and having the flange b ,witl1 thering A, placed upon the upper surface of the material to which the cap is attached, and having the prongs a, which enter the material and are clinched upon the under surface of the washer or plate, as and for the purposes described. p
3. The washer or platel3,having the rounded section b, cavity 1), and the slots b formed in the side of the cap above the lower surface of the flange, as and for the purposes described.
4. The combination,in a fastener, of a washer or plate having a dome or rounded section,b with a metal ring or bead having a hole of a size to receive the dome or rounded section of 30 the said washer or plate and the material thereon, and prongs for fastening the ring or bead to the washer or plate, substantially as described.
, ceive it, and the independent cap 6, having its flange or sections of its edge extended under said ring, and prongs or fastenings for securing said ring and independent cap to the edge of the under washer or plate, as and for the purposes described.
7. The method of fastening a member of a 20 fastener to imperforate material, comprising the placing of a dome-shaped or rounded washer or plate upon the under surface of the material and a ring or open band upon the outer surface of the material, so as to bring its hole or opening over the dome or rounded portion of the washer or plate, forcing the dome or rounded portion of the washer or plate with the imperforate material within the hole or'opening of said ring or band to bring the material above the outer surface of 30 said ring or band, and fastening the said ring or band by fastening prongs or devices passed through said material and united to the edge of said washer or plate, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
