UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JULlUS METZ, OF DENVER, COLORADO, ASSIGNOR OF THREE-FOURTHS TO J. lV. MITCHELL AND HERBERT L. AULLS, OF SAME PLACE.
NECKTlE-FASTEN ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 450,248, dated April 14, 1891.
Application tiled July l2, 1890. Serial No. 358,489. (No model.) I
To all whom, it ntfty concern:
Be it known that I, JULIUS METZ, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Denver, in the county of Arapahoe and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Iniprovements in Fasteners for Scarfs; 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 itappertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates, generally, to clasps or fasteners for neck-wear, and particularly to improvements .in those fasteners which are employed for holding the bands or straps of scarfs around the necks of wearers, and which are provided with means for securing them to said scarfs; and it consists in the peculiarities of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully disclosed in the description, drawings, and claims.
The objects of my invention are, first, to provide a fastener which will permit of quick and easy application thereto and removal t-herefrom of the band or strap of a scarf, which will securely hold said strap in any position to which it may be adjusted, and which will avoid the delay, wear, and other objections incident to the employment of the long sharp-pointed pins commonly used for secur-v ing the bandsor straps of scarfs; second, to provide said fastener with novel and improved features for securing it to the back of a scarf, and also for stiffening the latter and causing it to retain its shape; third, to so construct said fastener that when the strap is placed therein it will act with considerable pressure or binding` action thereon and prevent the same from either slipping or becoming detached, and, fourth, to provide a fastener' of this character which will be novel,i1nproved, simple and strong in construction, easy to operate, and relatively cheap to manufacture. These objects are accomplished by the construction and combination or arrangement of parts'illustrated in the accompanyingr drawings, forming part of this specification, in which the same reference-numerals indicate the same parts, and in which- Figurel represents a Vertical rear View of a scarf provided with my improved fastener, the lining or covering on the back of said scarf being broken away and the band or strap in fastened condition; Fig. 2, a detail front view of the fastener as it appears when first cut or stamped out of the materiall of which it is formed; and Fig. 3, a rear perspective View of the same, the outer ends of the prongs or arms being bent into the position they occupy when the fasten-er is applied to a scarf.
In the drawings, the numeral l indicates a scarf of any ordinary or suitable construction, which is provided with the band or strap 2, and which may be formed with or without the stiffener or back piece 3, as desired.
The fastener et is constructed ofa single piece of sheet or plate metal or othersuitable y material, which is cut or stamped out by dies or other suitable means and formed in its lower portion with the upper and lower transverse slots or loops 5 and 6, which open inwardly from the opposite edges thereof. The edges of the fastener ft at the entrances 7 of these slots or loops are rounded for permitting the easy insertion and removal of Ythe band or strap 2, While the walls of said slots o r loops are formed sufficiently close to each other to tightly hold said strap after its in sertion into'said loops; also, the upper portion of this fastener is provided or formed with the laterallyprojecting prongs or arms S, which may be either sharpened or rounded at their, ends, while its middle or intermediate portion is made in skeleton shape or formed with the elongated opening 9 for securing lightness and its ready attachment to the covering or lining l0 of the back part of the scarf.
In attaching my improved fastener to a scarf having a stifener or back vpiece 3 of any of the usual or ordinary kinds the outer ends ot' the prongs or arms S are first bent backwardly to points at right angles to their positions in Fig. 2. These bent ends are then forced or directed through the vertical slots ll in said stiffeners and then bent inwardly or toward each other, as shown in Figs. l and 3. In this condition they support the fastener firmly, prevent its vertical movement, and enable it to assist in retaining the stiffeuer and scarf in proper shape or condition. The middle portion of the fastener along the IOO sides of the lower end of the elongated opening 9 is prevented from lateral movement by a suitable number of stitches 12, which secure the same to the lining or covering l0 of the scarf. By the use of stitches, also, and other obvious attaching means my improved fastener can be usedin connection with many of the present forms or styles of neckties and scarfs in which no back pieces or stiffeners are employed.
In adjusting the scarf l to the neck of the wearer in a manner well understood the band` or strap 2 is first passed through the usual space in rear of the face of said scarf, then drawn to the left from the front of the fastener 4, and then passed to the right and placed by its right edge into the upper slot or loop 5. Then it is drawn farther to the right, and then drawn backward or to the left and placed by its left edge into the lower slot or loop 6. This manner of securing the strap to the fastener permits a scarf to be quickly and easily applied to and removed from the neck of the wearer, and also allows said strap to be readily adjusted to accord with the size of the neck 5 also, as the entrances of the slots or loops are arranged in the opposite edges of the fastener and out of horizontal alignment, the strap is not only prevented from accidental edgewise movementin either direction, but is held in firm engagement with the walls of said loops, their binding action or pressure thereon being considerable.
It is obvious that my improved fastener can also be readily made by bending a single piece of wire into the form or shape herein disclosed, and therefore I use the terms loops or slots as descriptive of equivalent features; also, it is obvious that myimproved fastener is capable of advantageous employment in connection with various parts of harness and as a fastener for gai-ters, shawl-straps, and the like.
Having thus fully described my invention, its uses, advantages, and operation, What I claim as new is* n l. A scarf-fastener formed with suitable attaching means at its upper end and with a J'ULIUs METZ. [L.
