UN ITED-GARR FASTENER CORPORATION PORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS 0F CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS; A COR- UPHOLSTERY INSTALLATION Application filed July 24,
This invention aims to provide an improved removable upholstery installation and improved fastening elements for use therewith. Reference is made to a divisional application, Serial No. 11,705, filed February 26th, 1925.
In the drawings, which illustrate a preferred embodimentof my invention, a modified form of fastener strip and two modified forms of studs In Figure 1 is an elevation view of an automobile door showing thev upholstered part removed therefrom;
Fig. 2 is an elevation view of the backing of the upholstered part, showing the stud strips secured thereto;
Fig. 3 is a transverse section of a portion of the door, showing the upholstery secured thereto;

Fig. 5 is a fragmentary view of the uph0lstered part, showing one of the studs and a portion of the stud-carrying strip as viewed from the inside face thereof;
Fig. 6 is a section similar to Fig. 3, but showing a modified form of stud-carrying strip secured to the upholstered backing;
Fig. 7 is an elevation View of a portion of the modified form of fastener stri Fig. 8 is an elevation View of the strip as shown in Fig. 6, but viewing the strip from the opposite side;
Fig. 9 is a front and a side elevation, respectively, of a modified form of stud for use with a stud-carrying strip; and
Fig. 10 is a front and a side elevation, respectively, of a second form of stud.
Referring to the drawings, I have shown, for illustration only, an automobile door pressed from a single sheet of metal to which may be secured an upholstered part for providing a finished appearance to the inside of the door. I have found that the fastener elements on the door frame and upon the upture of the door and of the upholstered part holstered part do not always align with each other, because of slight defects in manufac- 1924. Serial No. 727,959.
.the part to which they are secured.
By using this method of shiftable fastener elements, the upholstered part-may be quickly secured to the frame and any of the fastener elements may be aligned with each other by shifting the movable fastener element relative to the fastener part to which it is to be secured.
As illustrated in Fig. 2, the shiftable fastener elements may be first secured to a strip of metal or the like, so that attachment thereof to the backing is a simple and speedy operation.
Referring now to that form of my invention illustrated in Figs. 1 through 5, I have shown an upholstered part which includes a backing 1 (Figs. 2 and 3) having a plurality of apertures 2 punched therethrough to permit passage of the studs, for securing the uplgiolstered part to the door 3 of the automoile.
These studs are pressed from a single sheet of metal and each is provided with a head 4, neck 5, shank 6, relatively thin flat base 7 and slots 8. The slots extend from the head to the base to permitcontraction and expansion of the head. The studs, as illustrated in 1 Figs. 2 and 3, are applied to the backing 1 in strips 9 having any desired number of studs secured thereto.
Each strip for holding the studs comprises a somewhat arched single sheet of metal having a plurality of depressions 10 of substandepression and the rest of the stud protrudes through the aperture 11; The prongs 12 are then bent inwardly and downwardly over the depression to prevent the studs from falling strip.
The strips are secured to the backing by a plurality of prongs 13 projecting from the inner edge of the strip, and these prongs pass through the backing 1 and are .clenched against the opposite face thereof. At the same time, .a flange portion 14' ,at the outer edge of the strip 9 is clenched over the edge of 4 the backing and left extending over the edge placed over the surface of the backing atof the back face until the covering is applied to the installation. Thus the studs extend through the apertures 2 in the backing and,
because the shanks 6 thereof are substantially smaller in cross-section than the apertures 2, they are free to be shifted transversely in any direction relative to the backing.
After the strips 9 are secured to the backing 1, a padding 15 of cotton, or the like, is
that side thereof where the strips 9 are exposed, thus providing a smooth surface over which is stretched a flexible covering 16 of cloth, leather or the like (Fig. 3) The edges of the covering 16 are wrapped over the up standing portions 14 of the strips 9, which are thereafter clenched against the surface of the backing, thus clenching the covering 16 against the backing 1, as best illustrated in Fig. 3.
The door 3, as illustrated, is formed from a single sheet of metal and has a frame portion 17 adjacent the periphery thereof (Fig. 1) at the inside facg of the door. This frame presents a plurality of stud-receiving apertures 18, which areformed by punching or drilling holes in the door blank before the frame part thereof is formed.
To secure the upholstered part of the installation to the door, the upholstered part is placed against the frame of the door and the heads 4 of the studs are pressed into their cooperating stud-receiving apertures 18, as illustrated in Fig; 2. If, for reasons of defect in making the dies for punching the apertures 18 in the frame portion 17 or, the
- apertures 2 in the backing 1, or because the strips -9 are slightly out of line, the heads of the studs do not enter the apertures 18 in the frame, a suitable tool, hook-shaped at one end, may be inserted between the door, and upholstery-and the stud or studs may be shifted until they can be pressed into engagement. with their cooperating apertures. Thus, the upholstery may'be applied to the door without straining the studs and it may be attached thereto so that its edges. line up with the edges of the door. 7
When the studs are engaged with the apertures in the frame portion 17, the edges of the upholstery are seated and held tightly against the, frame adjacent the outer periphery of the door, as best illustrated in Fig. 3.
Referring now to Figs. 6, 7 and 8, I have.
shown,'as illustrated, a modified form of strip 20 for securing the studs to the backing I .of my invention. The prongs 22 are pressedfrom the strip in substantially the same manner as. described in connection with the preferred form of my invention and in this in.-
stance are bent against that side of the base v7 of the stud which lies adjacent the backing when the strip is'secured thereto;
In themodified form of my invention, as illustrated, the prongs 23 for securing the inner edge of the strip 20' to the backing 1 .are pressed from the strip itself and are 10-- cated a slight distance inwardly from the edge thereof. v
The door and the upholstery which is attached to the door and the method ,of attaching the strips 20 to the backing 1 are sub-' vention. This stud'is'provided with a relav tively narrow rectangular base portion 24 presenting a head, neck and shank portion substantially as shown in the stud used in connection with the preferred form of my invention. In this instance, however, I have provided one slot 25 only; which extends a considerable distance into the base portion 24. At each end of the slot 25 in the base portion 24, I have provided relatively short slots 26, 26, thereby to permit the head of the stud to contract and expand when engaging the stud-receiving aperture in the frame of the door. Most of the bending strain exerted upon the stud when it is contracted, occurs atthose portions 27 of the base of the stud between the ends of the short slots 26, 26 and the outer ends of the base, as illustrated.
- By using this type of stud; a somewhat narrower stud-holdingsti ip may be used for securing the studs to the backing 1.
. Referring now to Fig 10 and to the second modified form of stud or use with stud-holdas shown and described in connection with the referred form of my invention. This'stud,
.liowever, is provided with a rectangular basebase 28, the diameter of which is somewhat smaller than the diameter of the round base of the preferred form of stud, thus permitting N ing strips, I have shown a stud substantially In this instance, the slots which permit contraction and dxpansion of the head of the' stud are cut diagonally relative to the base tion, contains claims generic to some of the features illustrated and present application. v
. While I have shown and described preferred and modified forms of embodiments of described in my my invention, it will be understood that changes involving omission, substitution, al teration and reversal of parts, and even changes in the mode of operation, may be made without departing from the scope of my invention, which is best defined in the following claims.
