UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY IV. LYON, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT.
METHOD OF MAKING BUTTON-STRIPS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 404,047, dated May 28, 1889.
Application filed December 19, 1888- Serial No. 294.064. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, HENRY W. LYON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Method of Securing Buttons to a Strip by a Continuous Tape; and I do hereby 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 appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in the method of securing buttons to a strip by a continuous tape preparatory to attaching said strip within a corset or other garment, and has for its object the durability and cheapness of the article afforded.
With these ends in View my invention consists in winding a continuous tape around a strip of webbing or other stout material, threading said tape through the successive buttons at the front edge of the strip, and finally securing the tape to the strip by rows of. stitching through the frontand rear edges of said strip.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan View of a short section of a strip to which buttons are secured in accordance with my improvement; Fig. 2, a view of such strip secured within a corset; and Fig. 3 is a View similar to Fig. 1, but illustrating a slightlymodified way of carrying out my invention.
Similar letters denote like parts in the several figures.
The great advantage in using a single tape for attaching buttons in this connection is that the necessity for handling short sections of tape for each button is a matter of great labor and consequent expense. Furthermore, when a single continuous tape has hitherto been used for attaching buttons it has been necessary to manipulate a corset or other garment section beneath the presser-foot of a sewing-machine, because said tape and buttons were secured directly to or within the said section.
My present invention contemplates the attaching of buttons by a continuous tape to a separate strip of some stout material, as webbing, whereby such strips with buttons attached may be sold by the yard or other measurement independent of a corset or other garment to which said strip may be adapted for use.
1 is a strip of suitable material, as webbing, and 2 is the tape, which is secured to one end of the strip and then wound around the latter, so as to leave loops 3, which extend beyond the front edge of the strip. As the tape is thus wound, the loops are successively threaded through the buttons 4, as is clearly shown at Fig. 1, and the tape is secured by rows 5 6 of stitching passed through the strip near the front and rear edges thereof. A strip with its attached buttons is secured within a corset or other garment in any ordinary way, as by stitching said strip between the plies of said garment, as illustrated at Fig. 2.
In Fig. 1 I have shown the tape wound spirally around the strip, and while this affords especial advantages, in that the buttons are capable of a lengthwise adjustment on said tape, still the latter may be wound as shown at Fig. 3, wherein an excess of tape extends along the rear edge of the strip, thus causing the loops which are threaded through the buttons to extend in a direction opposite to that of the loops shown at Fig. 1.
I claim The method of making button-strips for attachment to corsets or other garments, the same consisting in winding a continuous tape around a strip of webbing or the like, threading said tape through the successive buttons at the front edge of said strip, and finally sewing the tape to the strip by rows of stitching through the front and rear edges of said strip, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HENRY W. LYON.
