Description

SYSTEME DE BOUTON, NOTAMMENT POUR VETEMENT La présente invention concerne un système de bouton, notamment pour vêtement. The present invention relates to a button system, in particular for clothing.
Il est bien connu de fixer un bouton à une partie d'un vêtement par couture et d'aménager une boutonnière en correspondance du bouton dans une autre partie du vêtement, pour 1'engagement du bouton.It is well known to fix a button to a part of a garment by sewing and to arrange a buttonhole in correspondence with the button in another part of the garment, for the engagement of the button.
Dans certains cas, la couture de fixation du bouton est relativement peu résistante et peut se rompre soit lorsqu'une traction importante est exercée sur l'une des parties du vêtement alors que le bouton est engagé dans la boutonnière, soit à la suite de son usure résultant des différentes manipulations du bouton.In some cases, the button attachment seam is relatively weak and can break either when a significant traction is exerted on one of the parts of the garment while the button is engaged in the buttonhole, or following its wear resulting from various operations on the button.
Dans d'autres cas, la couture est réalisée de manière à être résistante, et peut provoquer, lorsqu'une traction importante est exercée sur elle, une déchirure du vêtement soit au niveau du point où elle traverse le vêtement, soit au niveau de la boutonnière.In other cases, the seam is made so as to be resistant, and can cause, when a significant traction is exerted on it, a tear of the garment either at the point where it crosses the garment, or at the buttonhole.
Le bouton est fréquemment perdu suite à cette rupture et il est souvent difficile d'en trouver un de remplacement qui soit rigoureusement identique à celui qui a été perdu. Lorsque le bouton n'a pas été perdu, il est nécessaire de réaliser une nouvelle couture, ce qui n'est pas très facile, surtout lorsque le vêtement a été endommagé.The button is frequently lost following this rupture and it is often difficult to find a replacement that is strictly identical to the one that was lost. When the button has not been lost, it is necessary to make a new seam, which is not very easy, especially when the garment has been damaged.
On connaît également les systèmes dits "boutons-pression", c'est-à-dire constitués de deux pièces complémentaires portées par chacune des parties du vêtement à réunir, l'un des éléments comprenant une partie saillante destinée à être engagée dans une cavité aménagée à cet effet dans l'autre élément, avec déformation élastique de ce dernier.Also known as so-called "snaps" systems, that is to say made up of two complementary parts carried by each of the parts of the garment to be joined together, one of the elements comprising a projecting part intended to be engaged in a cavity. fitted for this purpose in the other element, with elastic deformation of the latter.
De tels boutons-pression présentent 1'inconvénient de n'être pas adaptables à tous les types de vêtements. Ces boutons ont, de plus, un aspect moins noble que les boutons traditionnels lorsqu'ils sont fermés et sont même relativement inesthétiques lorsqu'ils sont ouverts.Such snaps have the disadvantage of not being adaptable to all types of clothing. These buttons also have a less noble appearance than the traditional buttons when closed and are even relatively unsightly when open.
Il existe également les systèmes à bandes auto-agrippantes complémentaires, couramment appelées "Velcro" (marque enregistrée) . Ces bandes ne peuvent également être adaptées à tous les types de vêtements.There are also systems with complementary Velcro straps, commonly called "Velcro" (registered trademark). These bands cannot also be adapted to all types of clothing.
La présente invention vise à remédier à 1'ensemble de ces inconvénients, permettant la fixation du bouton par un lien aussi résistant que souhaité, sans risque de dommage au vêtement sous l'effet d'une traction importante et sans risque de perte du bouton.The present invention aims to remedy all of these drawbacks, allowing the fixing of the button by a link as strong as desired, without risk of damage to the garment under the effect of significant traction and without risk of loss of the button.
A cette fin, le système selon l'invention comprend un bouton proprement dit et deux éléments complémentaires pouvant être assemblés manuellement et séparés lorsqu'une traction est exercée sur l'un d'eux, le bouton étant fixé à l'un des deux éléments tandis que l'autre élément est fixé à la partie du vêtement ne comprenant pas la boutonnière, et l'élément auquel est fixé le bouton étant apte, lorsque le bouton est engagé dans la boutonnière, à venir prendre appui contre le vêtement, sur le côté intérieur de celui-ci, sans traverser la boutonnière.To this end, the system according to the invention comprises a button proper and two complementary elements which can be assembled manually and separated when a traction is exerted on one of them, the button being fixed to one of the two elements. while the other element is fixed to the part of the garment not including the buttonhole, and the element to which the button is fixed being able, when the button is engaged in the buttonhole, to come to bear against the garment, on the inside of it, without crossing the buttonhole.
Lorsque les deux éléments sont assemblés et que le bouton est engagé au travers de la boutonnière, le système selon 1'invention assure la réunion des deux parties du vêtement, au même titre qu'un bouton fixé traditionnellement.When the two elements are assembled and the button is engaged through the buttonhole, the system according to the invention ensures the union of the two parts of the garment, in the same way as a button fixed traditionally.
Si une traction vient à être exercée sur le système, les deux éléments assemblables se séparent, de sorte que : - le moyen de fixation du bouton à l'élément auquel il est relié n'est sollicité que jusqu'à un certain seuil de traction, au-delà duquel la séparation des deux
Figure imgf000004_0001
éléments se produit, et ne subit, par conséquent, qu'un effort et une usure relativement limités ; - aucun déchirement du vêtement n'est à craindre, la séparation se produisant avant qu'un tel déchirement puisse subvenir, tant au niveau de la boutonnière qu'au niveau de la fixation au vêtement de l'élément non relié au bouton ;If traction is exerted on the system, the two assemblable elements separate, so that: - the means for fixing the button to the element to which it is connected is only requested up to a certain traction threshold , beyond which the separation of the two
Figure imgf000004_0001
elements occurs, and therefore undergoes only relatively limited effort and wear; - no tearing of the garment is to be feared, the separation occurring before such a tearing can provide, both at the buttonhole and at the attachment to the item of clothing not connected to the button;
- la fixation du bouton à l'élément auquel il est relié peut être aussi résistante que voulu, sans risque de dommage pour le vêtement ;- the fixing of the button to the element to which it is connected can be as strong as desired, without risk of damage to the garment;
- après séparation, le bouton ne peut être perdu puisque l'ensemble qu'il forme avec l'élément qui lui est relié reste engagé au travers de la boutonnière ; il suffit de réassembler les deux éléments pour remettre le bouton en place.- After separation, the button cannot be lost since the assembly it forms with the element which is connected to it remains engaged through the buttonhole; simply reassemble the two elements to put the button back in place.
En outre, les boutons d'un vêtement sont aisément interchangeables, ce qui permet de modifier à volonté 1•aspect du vêtement. Selon une forme de réalisation préférée de l'invention, les deux éléments assemblables sont constitués par les deux parties complémentaires d'un "bouton-pression" et le bouton est fixé par couture à l'une de ces deux parties. Le système ainsi conformé n'affecte aucunement l'aspect visuel d'un vêtement puisque, lorsque le bouton est engagé au travers de la boutonnière, il présente le même aspect visuel qu'un bouton traditionnel. Bien entendu, les dimensions du bouton sont telles qu'il masque les éléments assemblables lorsqu'il n'est pas engagé dans la boutonnière.In addition, the buttons of a garment are easily interchangeable, which allows to change at will 1 • appearance of the garment. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the two assemblable elements are constituted by the two complementary parts of a "press button" and the button is fixed by sewing to one of these two parts. The system thus shaped does not affect the visual appearance of a garment in any way since, when the button is engaged through the buttonhole, it has the same visual appearance as a traditional button. Of course, the dimensions of the button are such that it masks the assemblable elements when it is not engaged in the buttonhole.
D'autres formes de réalisation sont toutefois envisageables sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. Notamment, le bouton et l'élément qui lui est relié peuvent, par exemple, former une seule et même pièce obtenue par moulage d'une matière synthétique ; selon une autre possibilité, le bouton comprend un doigt saillant comportant, à son extrémité, des moyens d'accrochage complémentaires de ceux de l'élément fixé au vêtement et sur lequel est engagée et retenue une rondelle pour la rétention du bouton dans la boutonnière. De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, plusieurs formes de réalisation préférées du système de boutonnage qu'elle concerne.Other embodiments are however possible without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, the button and the element connected to it can, for example, form a single piece obtained by molding a synthetic material; according to another possibility, the button comprises a projecting finger comprising, at its end, attachment means complementary to those of the element fixed to the garment and on which is engaged and retained a washer for the retention of the button in the buttonhole. In any case, the invention will be clearly understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended diagrammatic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting examples, several preferred embodiments of the buttoning system which it relates to.
La figure 1 en est une vue en perspective éclatée, selon une première forme de réalisation ; les figures 2 à 4 en sont des vues en coupe passant par son axe, selon trois positions différentes de fonctionnement ; et les figures 5 et 6 en sont des vues similaires en coupe, selon deux variantes de réalisation.Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view, according to a first embodiment; Figures 2 to 4 are sectional views through its axis, in three different operating positions; and Figures 5 and 6 are similar views in section, according to two alternative embodiments.
Les figures représentent un système de boutonnage, notamment pour vêtement. Dans la forme de réalisation représentée aux figures 1 à 4, ce système comprend un bouton traditionnel 2, deux éléments 3,4 complémentaires pouvant être assemblés manuellement, par encliquetage, et séparés lorsqu'une traction est exercée sur l'un d'eux. Le bouton 2 est fixé, au moyen d'une couture 5, à l'un 3 des éléments 3,4 tandis que l'autre élément 4 est fixé à la partie de vêtement 6 ne comprenant pas la boutonnière 7.The figures represent a buttoning system, in particular for clothing. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, this system comprises a traditional button 2, two complementary elements 3,4 which can be assembled manually, by snap-fastening, and separated when traction is exerted on one of them. The button 2 is fixed, by means of a seam 5, to one 3 of the elements 3,4 while the other element 4 is fixed to the part of clothing 6 not including the buttonhole 7.
L'élément 3 a des dimensions suffisantes pour pouvoir, lorsque le bouton 2 est engagé dans la boutonnière 7, venir prendre appui contre le vêtement, sur le côté intérieur de la partie 8 de celui-ci comprenant la boutonnière 7, sans traverser cette dernière.The element 3 has sufficient dimensions to be able, when the button 2 is engaged in the buttonhole 7, to come to bear against the garment, on the interior side of the part 8 thereof comprising the buttonhole 7, without crossing the latter .
Pour permettre leur assemblage par encliquetage, les éléments 3,4 sont réalisés en matière légèrement deformable elastiquement, telle qu'en matière plastique, et comprennent, l'un, un téton 10 et, l'autre, une cavité 11 pouvant recevoir avec déformation élastique le têton 10 et le retenir jusqu'à un certain seuil de force de traction. Le bouton 2 et l'élément 3 comprennent quatre trous pour le passage de la couture 5 et l'élément 4 comprend quatre trous permettant sa fixation par couture à la partie de vêtement 6.To allow their snap-on assembly, the elements 3, 4 are made of a material which is slightly elastically deformable, such as plastic, and comprise, one, a stud 10 and, the other, a cavity 11 capable of receiving with deformation elastic the pin 10 and retain it up to a certain threshold of tensile force. The button 2 and the element 3 include four holes for the passage of the seam 5 and the element 4 includes four holes allowing its attachment by sewing to the garment part 6.
Comme le montre la figure 2, lorsque les deux éléments 3,4 sont assemblés, le bouton 2 est fixé au vêtement. Lorsqu'il est engagé dans la boutonnière 7 (figure 3), il assure la réunion des deux parties 6,8 du vêtement, au même titre qu'un bouton fixé traditionnellement.As shown in Figure 2, when the two elements 3,4 are assembled, the button 2 is attached to the garment. When it is engaged in the buttonhole 7 (FIG. 3), it ensures the union of the two parts 6,8 of the garment, in the same way as a button fixed traditionally.
Si une traction vient à être exercée sur le système, les deux éléments assemblables 3,4 se séparent, de sorte que :If traction is exerted on the system, the two assemblable elements 3,4 separate, so that:
- la couture 5 n'est sollicitée que jusqu'à un certain seuil de force de traction, au-delà duquel la séparation des deux éléments 3,4 se produit, et ne subit, par conséquent, qu'un effort et une usure relativement limités ;- the seam 5 is stressed only up to a certain threshold of tensile force, beyond which the separation of the two elements 3, 4 occurs, and therefore undergoes only a relatively effort and wear limits ;
- aucun déchirement du vêtement n'est à craindre, la séparation se produisant avant qu'un tel déchirement puisse subvenir, tant au niveau de la boutonnière 7 qu'au niveau de la couture de fixation au vêtement de l'élément 4 ;- No tearing of the garment is to be feared, the separation occurring before such a tearing can occur, both at the buttonhole 7 and at the seam of attachment to the garment of the element 4;
- la couture 5 peut être aussi résistante que voulu, sans risque de dommage pour le vêtement ;- the seam 5 can be as strong as desired, without risk of damage to the garment;
- après séparation des éléments 3 et 4, le bouton 2 ne peut être perdu puisque l'ensemble qu'il forme avec l'élément 3 reste engagé au travers de la boutonnière 7, ainsi que le montre la figure 4 ; il suffit de réassembler les deux éléments 3,4 pour fixer à nouveau le bouton 2 sur le vêtement. En outre, les boutons 2 d'un vêtement sont aisément interchangeables, ce qui permet de modifier à volonté l'aspect du vêtement.- After separation of the elements 3 and 4, the button 2 cannot be lost since the assembly which it forms with the element 3 remains engaged through the buttonhole 7, as shown in FIG. 4; it suffices to reassemble the two elements 3,4 to fix the button 2 again on the garment. In addition, the buttons 2 of a garment are easily interchangeable, which allows to change at will the appearance of the garment.
Le système de boutonnage représenté par les figures 1 à 4 n'affecte aucunement l'aspect visuel d'un vêtement puisque, lorsque le bouton 2 est engagé au travers de la boutonnière 7, il présente le même aspect visuel qu'un bouton traditionnel. Bien entendu, les dimensions du bouton 2 sont telles qu'il masque les éléments 3,4 lorsqu'il n'est pas engagé dans la boutonnière 7. La figure 5 représente une variante de réalisation du système de boutonnage selon l'invention.The buttoning system shown in Figures 1 to 4 does not affect the visual appearance of a garment since, when the button 2 is engaged through the buttonhole 7, it has the same appearance visual than a traditional button. Of course, the dimensions of the button 2 are such that it hides the elements 3,4 when it is not engaged in the buttonhole 7. FIG. 5 represents an alternative embodiment of the buttoning system according to the invention.
Selon cette variante, le bouton 4 et l'élément 3 ne forment qu'une seule et même pièce, pouvant, par exemple, être obtenue par moulage d'une matière synthétique.According to this variant, the button 4 and the element 3 form only one and the same part, which can, for example, be obtained by molding a synthetic material.
Selon la variante représentée à la figure 6, la partie 15 de l'élément 3 qui forme la collerette de rétention du bouton 2 dans la boutonnière 7 est constituée par un élément indépendant de l'ensemble bouton 2-doigt saillant, cette collerette 15 étant simplement engagée en force sur le doigt saillant et retenue sur celui-ci grâce à l'extrémité renflée qu'il comprend.According to the variant shown in FIG. 6, the part 15 of the element 3 which forms the collar for retaining the button 2 in the buttonhole 7 is constituted by an element independent of the button 2-protruding finger assembly, this collar 15 being simply engaged in force on the projecting finger and retained thereon thanks to the swollen end which it comprises.
L'invention a été décrite ci-dessus en référence à un vêtement, mais il va de soi qu'elle peut équiper tout type d'objets similaires, c'est-à-dire d'objets formés en tout ou en partie d'un matériau souple comprenant deux parties à réunir. The invention has been described above with reference to a garment, but it goes without saying that it can equip any type of similar object, that is to say objects formed in whole or in part of a flexible material comprising two parts to be joined.
