UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
TOWNSEND E. JONES, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.
BUTTON-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 613,373, dated November 1, 1899.
Application filedAugust 5,1896. Serial No. 601,794. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, TOWNSEND E. JONES, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Button-Fasteners; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the lettersof reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification.
My invention relates to devices for attaching buttons to garments; and it consists of the hereinafter-described improvements in button-fasteners, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a sectional view of my improved 'fastener in position attaching a button to a garment, the transverse bar and the twisted loop being shown in elevation. Fig. 2 is a sectional view at right angle to that shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a bottom view of the fastener.
The construction of my improved buttonfastener shown in the drawings comprises a single ring A, serving conjointly with the transverse bar F as a base, supporting or retaining the button when affixed to the garment, and a single loop B engaging with the eye of the button.
All parts of my improved button-fastener are integral and are made of one piece of wire. Ring A is formed by bending the wire appropriately and setting the end 1 into the bend of the bar F, extending approximately through and partly beyond the center of the ring. Bar F terminates at some distance from the ring to permit the eye of the button to be slid upon the bar and into the loop B, which is approximately in the center of the ring. The end of the bar F is bent into a hook O, slightly diverging downwardly from the plane of the mug.
Loop B is formed by a single coil upon the bar projecting above the plane of the ring to permit its being passed through the material of the garment to which the button is to be attached and is twisted to intersect with the bar F. Bends n and n overlap in the line of the bar. There is, however, a sufficient clearance between them (transversely to the bar) to admit the eye of the button when turned approximately in line with the bar. Thus the loop permits theeye of the button to be slipped in by a twisting turn of the fastener, and while allowing it a free swing, facilitatin g the buttoning and the unbuttoning of the garment, prevents absolutely any sliding of the fastener in the eye of the button, or vice versa, and consequently obviates the neces sity of pinning or sewing on the fastener to the garment.
The fastener is used for affixing buttons to a garment in the following manner: The eye D of the button E is passed through a slit in the garment to which it is to be applied. Then hook O is passed into it and by a twisting turn of the fastener the eye D of the button is brought into loop B. Then the loop B is drawn upwardly in the slit of the garment, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, in which position the button is securely held, though having an absolutely free swing. The eye of the button cannot be disengaged from the loop or slide along the bar.
-I claimas myinvention and desire to secure by Letters Patent A button-fastener comprising a single ring and an integral bar and loop, all made of one piece of wire; the bar extending from one edge approximately through and beyond the center of the ring and terminating short of the other edge, and the loop being twisted in a plane.
intersecting with the length of the bar and projecting above the plane of the ring.
In, testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscrib ing witnesses.
. TOWNSEND E. JONES. Witnesses:
FRED. G. EARLE, GEO. D. SEYMOUR.
