SLEEVE BUTTON. No. 472,941. Patented Apr. 12, 1892.

UNITED STATES P TENT OFFICE.
VALTER E. COOK, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND, ASSIGNOR TO THE NOVELTY PEARL COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
SLEEVE-BUTTON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 472,941, dated April 12, 1892.
Application filed July 14, 1891.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WALTER E. COOK, of Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have inventedcertain new and useful Improvements in Sleeve-Buttons; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the 'same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
This invention has reference to improvements in the links for securing double buttons together.
The objectof this invention is to produce a new and improved link for-securing double buttons together and to which the buttons can be readily attached without bending the cuff. To attainthisendlhaveinvented certain novel and peculiar features of construction and combination of parts, which will be more fully explained hereinafter, and pointed out in the claim. A
Figure 1 is a view of my improved buttonlink with two buttons attached thereto. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the link with one button attached. t
It has been customary to make thelink for what are known in the trade as link sleevebuttons or as double sleeve-buttons in the shape of an 8, having the ends extended and bent close to the stem at points near the center of the same. In order to attach a button to this link after the eye of the button has been passed through the buttonhole, it was necessary to bring the eye or tail of the button to the center of the link. This could not be done without bending the cuff and spoiling the appearance of the same, and much annoyance was caused by the link becoming twisted sufficiently to require much time and patience to pass the eye of the button over the end of the bent wire forming the link. My improved button-link is designed to overcome these difficulties, and I will now proceed to describe the improvement.
Serial No. 399,467. (No modeh) Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout.
In the drawings, 3 3 are the ordinary buttons used in this class of jewelry, and are provided with the eyes or perforated tails 4 4. The link itself is formed of the wire 5, having its ends bent inward to form the hooks 6 6, to which is secured by means of the metal band 8 the straight spring-wire 7. The ends 9 9 of the Wire 7 are sufficiently long to extend slightly past the ends of the hooks 6 6 to form guides for the eye of the button.
The operation of attaching a button to the improved link is extremely simple, and will be understood fromv the drawings. The tail or eye at of the button 3 is pushed against the inner side of the hook 6, which directs it against the spring end 9, which is moved away from the book 6 and allows the eye to pass until the perforation in the eye comes opposite the end of the hook, on which itwili beforced by the resilience of the spring-arm 9.
When it becomes necessary" to remove the button from the cuff, a further movement in the same direction will release the tail of the button from the hook.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent A link for cuffs, consisting-of a pair of eyebuttons and a wire bent at the opposite ends to form hooks, and a wire spring secured rigidly near the center of the bent wire bearing on the two ends ofv the wire forming the hooks and extending beyond such bearing to form projections adapted to facilitate the connection and disconnection of the button, as described.
WALTER E. COOK.
