BUTTON No.. 877,825. Patented Feb. 7,1888.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFic'lI-:o
WILLIAM J. LEOKIE', JR., OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
BUTTON.
SPECIFICATION forming part o! Letters Patent No. 377,625, dated February 7, 1888.
Application 'filed December 9, 1887. Serial 1510.251387. (No model.)
To all whom it mag/concern: Y s
Beit known that I, WILLIAM J. LEcxIE, .Tr.,of Boston,in the county of Sudolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Buttons, of which the following is adescription sufficiently full, clear, and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which said invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specication, inwhich Figure 1 is an enlarged bottom plan view of my improved button represented as in use; Fig. 2, a vertical longitudinal/section of the same; Fig. 3, a side elevation of the wrench; Fig. 4, views of the punoh,and Fig. 5 views of the truck.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures of the drawings.
My invention relates more especially to means forsecuring the button to the garment` with which it is worn; and it consists in certain novel features, as hereinafter fully set forth and claimed, the object being to produce a stronger, more durable, effective, and otherwise desirable article of this character than is now in ordinary use.
The nature and operation of the improvement will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters from the following explanation.
In the drawings, A represents the body,and B the shank, of the button.
rIhe shank is screw-threaded at its outer end and provided with a shoulder, zr', on which rests a washer, C. A disk, D, having a centrally-disposed screwthreaded `hole for receiving the outer end of the shank B, is employed for securing the button proper to the garment. This disk is iat on its inner side or face, and preferably oval on its outer side,
as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and is providedwith sockets m for receiving the studs o ofthe wrench E, by which the disk is turned on or off the shank in attaching or detaching the button. A shallow circular socket, f,is formed partially in the shank B and partially in the disk D,for receiving a circular truck, N,com posed of lead or similar material. The socket is counterbored or-undercut to render it of greater diameter at the bottom or inner end In attaching the button to the garment a hole is made in the cloth or leather M for receiving the shank B. The washer O is then placed on the shoulder a: and the shank passed from the front through'the hole in the cloth, after which the disk D is turned onto the shank by means of the wrench E, or in any other convenient manner, thereby rmly securing theA button to the garmentin a manner that will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters without a more explicit description. After the disk has been turned onto the shank, as described, the truck N is placed in the socket` f and expanded to prevent its escape therefrom by means of a prick-punch, H,said punch forcing the lower portion of the truck outward into the enlarged portion z of the socket,and thereby locking the truck in position. rIhe socket f being formed partially in the shank B and partially in the disk D, it will be obvious that when the truck N is in said socket that the disk D cannot accidentally become loosened or unscrewed from lthe shank B, and thereby permit the loss of the button. It is, however, sometimes desirable to remove the button from the garment afterit has been attached thereto and the disk D- locked with the truck N, as described, and to accomplish this it is necessary to apply sufficient force to said disk in unscrewing it to overcomeor destroy the truck.
To weaken the truck and render it easily de- I IOO` the point or punch proper,t,is driven into the outer face of the truck to expand it and form l.v In a button, the combination ofthe body A, having the screw vthreaded shank, B, the washer,C,disposed on said shank, the disk D, having a centrally disposed screw threaded hole for the reception of the shank B, and the locking-truck N, secured in a socket formed partially in said disk and partially in the shank, substantially as described.
2. A button comprising a body provided with an exteriorlyscrew threaded shank, a washer disposed on said shank, a disk having a screw-threaded hole adapted to receive said shank, and means, substantially as described, for detachably locking the disk to the shank, substantially as set forth.
3. In a button of the character described,
the shank B' and disk D, provided with the socketf, having the enlargement z, in combination with the metallic truck N, expanded Y in said socket, substantially as set forth.
4. In a button of the character described,
the metallic truck N, disposed in the socket f, said truck being expanded in said socket and provided with the indentation d, Substantially as specified.
5. In a button of the character described, the combination of the bodyA,shank B,washer C, disk D, and truck N, said truck being secured in a socket formed in said disk and shank and partially bisected, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
6. In a button of the character described, the combination oft-he body A,shank B, Washer G, disk D, and truck N, said shank and disk being provided with the socket f, having the enlarged portion z, and said trucks secured by being expanded in said socket and provided with the cut i for weakening the same, sub stantially as set forth.
