TO ALL PERSONS TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS M AY COME :l Y
Be it known that we, WILLIAM` C. REEVES, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk, and LOUIS L. SOLOMON, of Charlestown, in the county of Middlesex,.and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improve# ment in Button-Holes, Wristbands, or other articles madeof paper; and we do hereby declare thesame to be fully described in the following specification, and represented in Figure 1 of theaccompanying drawings.
The button-hole constituting our invention consists not only of a straight slit, A A, but of a recess .or hole, B, arranged as exhibited in the figure. This recess, as exhibited in the figure, has parallel sides and a semicircular end, or iscomposed of a rectangle, a, and a. semicircle, b, the circumference of the latter corresponding with one side of theformer. The slit da need be only straight cut, such as would be made by a sharp chisel or knife when cutting through paper.
This mode of forming a buttonhole has agreat `advantage, over one made as represented in Figure 2, in which the slit is represented as curved, in order to produce what is termed ady, C, a h ole or opening, d, lik-e the hole B of fig. l, being made alongside of and leading from the middle of the curved slit.
Our invention also has advantages over a button-hole formed of two slits, arranged at right angles, as shown in Figure 3, in which f eizhibits one and g the other of suchslits.
From each of the button-holes exhibited in gs. 2 and 3, a button is veryrlike to become and is easily accidentally detached, for the ily, C, of that shown in iig. 2, will readily yield, so as to allow the head of the shank of the shirt-stud or button to pass out of the button-hole. The button-'hole shown in iig. 3 has little or no h'old of the button,vas inA reality it has four flies, h z h h, so ilexiblc as to readily yield, and allow the escape of the button, under' very slight force or draught applied thereto.
Our improved button-hole has no ly to yield and admit the escape of the button, and being composed otra. lclose slit, a a, and the hole B leading from its middle, it holds to the button with great tenacity, or, in fact, very much stronger than either of the others, or very much better than will 'a single wide slit, such as constitutes ordinary button-holes of paper collars. I
We do not claim a button-hole composed of a single wide slit, norrofa curved narrow slit-,and a. `hole leading out of its middle and in one side thereof; nor do we claim a button-hole formed of' two wide,- slits, arrangedA to cross one another at right angles.
What we do claim as our improvement or invention is The button-hole, as composed of a close straight slit, a a., and a hole, B, arranged together, substantially as represented in fig. 'I of the above-mentioned drawings.
