NELS M. HOLSTE, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
BUTTON-FASTENER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May is, rare.
Application filed July 18, 1913. Serial No. 779,704.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, Nuts M. HoLs'rE, a citizen of Sweden, residing at Brooklyn. in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Button-Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to novel and useful improvements in button fasteners, having for its primary object to associate with an ordinary button, a suitable cord which carries on the opposite ends thereof penetrating elements in order that the cord may be readily passed through a garment for securing the button thereon.
Another object of the invention resides in the provision of a simple and eiiicient device of this character, which will eii ectually withstand the strain exerted thereon, being of such a construction as to be readily secured to a garment, and if desired the same may be detached without in any way defacing the button.
Other objects as well as the nature, characteristic features and scope of my invention will be more readily understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the claim forming a part of this specification.
Referring to the drawings Figure 1 is a. perspective view of a button illustrating the application of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of my improved but-.
ton showing the same secured to a garment; and
Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view showing the same secured to a garment.
In thedrawings wherein is shown the preferred form of my invention a button 5 is provided which may be of the ordinary or any desired form, having formed therein a plurality of apertures through which is passed a cord or thread 6 the opposite ends of which are reduced as indicated. at 7 so as to bereadily engaged with the penetrating elements, 8 which in the present instance comprise needles formed from any suitable inexpensive metal and of no greater diameter than the main portion of the thread as shown. The thread or cord 6 maybe formed from cotton or any other suitable inexpensive material, and is preferably coated with wax or the like, in order to prevent the same from being readily broken after a certain length of time, as is the case with the ordinary thread cotton now in use. On application to Fig. 1 of the drawings it is seen that the thread or cord 6 comprises an integral length, the opposite ends of which are as before stated tapered so as to be readily inserted through the eyes of the needles 8 which though smaller than the body of the thread, are large enough to receive and hold the tapered ends 7 of said thread.
In use the button is placed into engagement with the garment, in the ordinary manner, the pointed ends of the penetrating elements or needles 8 being passed through a pair of the apertures which are formed in the button 5, and through the garment. One of the needles is then engaged through the garment and up through another of the apertures and then passed inwardly through the last of said apertures and again through the garment. The opposite ends of the cord are then secured together and the needles 8 discarded therefrom. It is obvious that the above operation is explained, assuming that a button having four apertures is provided, although this device may be used with a button having less than four or more than four apertures therein as desired. It is likewise to be understood that should the apertures which are formed in the but ton be enlarged, the cord or thread 6 may be passed therethrough a plurality of times, thereby insuring a more positive retaining means between the button and the garment, this form being especially applicable with overcoats or the like where the strain exerted on the button is very great.
It will be understood that the above description and accompanying drawings eomprehend only the general and preferred embodiment of my invention and that various minor changes in details of construction, proportion and arrangement of the parts may be made Within the scope of the appended claim and Without sacrificing any of the'advantages of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention whatiI claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is As an article of manufacture, a sewing element consisting of a length of Waxed thread tapered to a point at each end, and a needle 10 on each of said ends not greater in diameter than the thread and having an eye in one end large enough to receive a portion only of the tapered end of the thread.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence oftwo Witnesses.
