FRANKLIN R. W'HITE, OF \VATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR'TO THE PATENT BUTTON COMPANY, OF WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, A COR- PORATION OF CONNECTICUT.
FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 692,953, dated. February 1 1, 1902.
Application filed May 2, 1901. Renewed January 10, 1902. Serial No. 89,224. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANKLIN R. WHITE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have made and invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to animprovementin 1o fasteners, and more particularly to the socket member of a ball-and-socket fastener, such as are generally used upon gloves, u mbrcllabands, clothing, &c., the object of the same being to provide an article of this kind or character which shall be simple and cheap to manufacture, easily and readily applied to the fabric or material, and effective in retaining the ball member therein and preventing it from accidental disengagement.
vention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and then pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a sectional View showing the two parts of the socket member prior to their attachment to the material. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the parts after attachment. Fig. 3 is a 0 plan view of the eyelet member. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of a modified form of the article prior to its attachment, and Fig. 5 a similar view thereof after attachment to the material. Figs. 6, 7, and 8 show modified forms 5 of the outer shell.
As will be seen by reference to the drawings, my improved socket consists of two parts, A representing the outer shell and B the fastening-eyelet, said shell A being preferably 40 concavo-convex in form, the edge a thereof being curled or bent upwardly and inwardly to form a lock or anchor for the fasteningeyelet. The eyelet 13 consists, preferably, of
a shank b and a base or flange c, the top 01 of the eyelet, which may be either an open or closed one, being bent downwardly and inwardly within the shank b and preferably slitted or slotted at the bend, as shown at e. In securing this socket member in place the shcll A and eyelet B are placed on opposite \Vith these and other ends in view my in erted upon said disk sides of the material and the eyelet B by means of proper tools forced within the shell A, carrying the cloth or material C with it. As the depressedtop d of the eyelet is forced upwardly the shank b of the eyelet is forced outwardly-that is, the shank is spread until the top 61 thereof conforms to the shape of the domed top of the shell A, the upper portion of the shank being spread. over the curled rim or of the shell, as shown in section in Fig. 2, thereby holding the material between the shell and eyelet and securely locking these two members together. By slitting or slotting the upper portion of the fastening-eyelet, as described, the shank of the eyelet is permitted to spread evenly, although it will be understood that such slots are not absolutely essential.
Instead of depressing the top of the eyelet, as described, said eyelet may be formed of the usual shape-:that is, as illustrated in Fig. 4, b representing the shank of the eyelet, c the flange, and d the top. WVithin this shank b is inserted a cup-shaped disk h, of such diameter as to be nicely contained within said shank. \Vhen the parts are assembled, as before described, pressure is ex- 71,, which tends to straighten or flatten, the efiect being that the top of the eyelet is spread, as in the first in stance, over and upon the curled rim of the shell, as illustrated in Fig. 5, securely locking the parts together, the cloth or material being held between the eyelet and shell, as before described. In either instance it will be noticed that the locking together of the eyelet and shell is effected by spreading or expanding the upper end of the eyelet over and'upon the curled rim of the shell and to such an extent that no ordinary strain will separate them. Again, instead of forming the outer shell as described it may be shaped as illustrated in Fig. 6that is, with a fiat top A, converging sides, and a straight or flattened flange or case a, or, as illustrated in Fig. 7, the top A may be flat and the lower edge or curled to form the seat or anchor, and, again, it may be shaped as illustrated in Fig. 8, wherein the'top A is dome-shaped and curved inwardly and having a base or flange a). In all these instances-that is, when shaped as shown in Figs. 1, G, 7, and 8it will be noticed that said shell has a restricted opening whereby to prevent the disengagement of the fastening eyelet after being spread therein.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The socket member of aball-and-socket fastener, consisting of an outer shell having a restricted opening and a fastening-eyelet, the top of which is closed and depressed or recurved, whereby said top may be expanded and locked within said shell, substantially as described.
2. The socket member of a ball-and-socket fastener, consisting of a shell having a restricted opening, and a fastening-eyelet, said eyeletcomprising a shank or tubular portion,
the top of which is closed, depressed and slitted, and at its opposite end a flange, whereby the closed, depressed top of said ey'elet may be expanded and locked within said shell, substantially as described.
3. The socket member of a ball-and-socket fastener, consisting of a shell having a curled rim, and an eyelet, consisting of a flange and shank, the top of said shank being closed and depressed or recurved, whereby the same may be spread or expanded over and upon said curled rim, substantially as described.
Signed at Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, this 26th day of April, A. D. 1901.
FRANKLIN R. \VHITE.
