BUTTON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 766,729, dated August 2, 1904.
Application filed September 26, 1902. Serial No. 124,951. (No model.)
To all 1071mm if ntrty concern:
Be it known that I, I-IERHAN H. QUEHL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ne\ port, in the county of Campbell and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buttons, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved button of the class which is adapted to be secured in position by means of tangs, which may be spread apart and clenched.
My invention consists in the combinations and arrangements of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a button embodying my invention; Fig. 2, a longitudinal section of the same; Fig. 3, a top plan view of Fig. 2; Fig. 4, a longitudinal section of one tang of the button; Fig. 5, a top plan view of Fig. l; Fig. 6, a longitudinal section of the other tang of the button, and Fig. 7 a top plan view corresponding to Fig. 6.
The tangsA and Aare stamped up in the form shown with a substantially semicircular headliange a. The tang A is longer than tang A and is provided with a recess or notch a near its point. The tang A has its point slightly bent or turned in to take into notch a in tang A. The head-flanges a are formed at a slightly obtuse angle with the tangs, as shown in Figs. 4: and 6. A head-cap B is clenched over the edges of the head-flanges a to hold the tangs in position and form the head of the button.
In order to insure close contact of tangs A and A at their bases and to prevent the interference of burs or irregularities which may be formed in stamping on the head-flanges a, the meeting edges are slightly beveled or cut away at (4 so as to freely pass each other.
In forcing the head B to position and in clenching its edges over the edges of the headflanges a, the head-flanges are bent to conform to the shallow cup form of a button head, thereby bending the head-flanges a relatively to the tangs, so that the angle between them becomes either a right angle or slightly acute, thus imparting a spring tension to the tangs A and A to hold them together, with the point of tang A pressed into the notch in tang A.
It will be seen that the tangs of this button are held together by the spring action of their head-flanges, and the point of the shorter tang is protected by the notch in the longer tang against entanglement with the fabric through which the tangs are passed. Thus both tangs pass through the same hole in the fabric without danger of being spread apart. TV hen passed through the fabric, the projecting point of the longer tang is easily engaged to bend it back and clench it, after which the point of the shorter tang is easily clenched in an opposite direction. The head may be ornamented by japanning or otherwise, or the button may be used plain.
lVhile I have shown and described the preferred form of application of my invention, this is capable of many variations without departing from the spirit of the invention. 1 therefore do not wish to be limited to the precise form of button shown and described; but
WVhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A button having longer and shorter, flat, clenching-tangs, the shorter tang having an inturned point, and the longer tang being provided with a recess confined to its point, adapted to receive the point of the shorter tang, substantially as specified.
