GEORGE PONAROUSE, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGN- MENTS, T0 0. F. DEGNER, 0F LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
ROTARY LOCKING COLLAR-BUTTON.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June '7, 1910.
Application filed January 10, 1907, Serial No. 351,723. Renewed December 21, 1908. Serial No. 468,589.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE PONAROUSE, a citizen of the United States, residing at San Francisco, in the county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Rotary Locking Collar-Buttons, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in metallic collar, cuff, or stud buttons, and has for its object means whereby the head of the button may be more conveniently passed through the button hole to secure it in place or to remove it therefrom.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a front view of one form of my improved button, ready for insertion; Fig. 2 is a side or edge view of the same; Fig. 3 is a similar view of the button in its position when inserted; Fig. 4 is an enlarged section view through the head; Fig. 5 is a similar view at right angles to Fig. 4:; Fig. 6 is broken perspective view of the head; Fig. 7 is a broken perspective view of the yoke; Figs. 8, 9, 10 are views, similar to Figs. 1, 2, 3, of a modified form of the invention; Figs. 11 and 12 are views, similar to Figs. 6 and 4:, of said modification.
Referring to the drawing, upon the base 1 of the button is formed, or otherwise secured, the yoke 2, having the side arms 3 and the cross bar4, the latter forming a shaft upon which turns the head 5 of the button. Said head is hollow and is preferably made of a single sheet of spring metal, suitably shaped, bent in the middle, at the neck 6, to form two dish-shaped plates, and perma nently set so that the free edges of the plates meet, or nearly meet. Said head is cut away at its edges in a diametrial line substantially parallel with the line of bending to formbearings 7 for the cross bar a, and said cross bar 4 is rounded and of comparatively small cross sectional area, as shown at 17, where it passes through said bearings, but is enlarged in the middle, as shown at 1 1, to conform to the hollow form of the head. This middle portion 14 of the cross bar is rectangular in cross section, preferably square, and is, by the spring pressure of the head, firmly held between the opposite in terior surfaces of the plates, so that by turning the head upon the cross bar from any one of the positions shown in the figures, the plates of the head are sprung apart. This spring pressure of the head upon the cross bar therefore tends to hold the head firmly in any one of the four positions of rest, in the case of the round head shown in Figs. 1 to 7 or in any one of three positions, in the case of the elongated head shown in Figs. 8 to 12. Said pressure is rendered more eifective by making the plates or section of the head dish-shaped and the cross bar enlarged in the center to abut against the flat bottoms of the dish-shaped heads. At the same time, the terminal portions of the cross bar being reduced in cross-sectional area, the bearings 7 can be maintained comparatively small and thus the button can be formed of a neat and attractive appearance.
I claim:
A rotary locking collar button, comprising a base, a yoke, having side arms and a cross bar connecting said side arms, said cross bar having a middle portion rectangular in cross section, and reduced rounded terminal portions, and a hollow head formed of two dishshaped plates of spring sheet metal permanently secured together at one side with their free edges in close proximity to each other, said head being cut away at its edges at diametrically opposite points to form bearings for said reduced terminal portions of the cross bar, the concavity of the dishshaped plates being such relatively to the enlarged central portion of the cross bar that opposite sides of said enlarged portion can bear simultaneously against the inner surface of both plates, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE PONAROUSE. Witnesses:
