W. B. KLIVER NECKTIE REFORMER Filed Dec. 8, 1928 Snvcntor WILLIAM B. KLIV ER AW Cttomcg Patented May 5, 1931 UNITED STATES WILLIAM B. KLIVER, F COLUMBUS, OHIO NEGKTIE REFORMER Application filed December 8, 1928.
This invention relates to means for reforming neckties. Owing to the difficulty of making the four-in-hand knot and adjusting such knot up over the collar button, especially where the necktie is drawn around within the folds of a lay down collar the wider or knotting half of the tie becomes badly twisted and unsightly. A number of devices have heretofore been proposed for stretching a necktie hence the object of my invention is to provide an improved, easily handled and effective construction of such device whereby the tie can be neatly reformed and if desired ironed while on the reformer and so brought to substantially its prime condition as when purchased at the store. -Other objects will appear. from the disclosure herein.
The invention is embodied in theexample herein shown and described, the features of novelty being finally claimed.
In the accompanyingv drawing- V Figure 1 is a plan view of the device according to my invention with a small portion '25 broken out. V
Fig.2 is a plan view showing the manner.
of applying the same to a necktie.
Fig. 3 is a cross section on; the line III- III Fig. 1.
r is preferably constructed of copper-finished steel wire, said wire being bent generally in the form of the outline of a long spear head and to fit snugly into the knot-tying end of the necktie. At its point the frame is inwardly bent to form aV-shap ed portion 6.
The side wires 7 where they are bentto form the barb-like portions 8 at the base are continued parallelly and finally with short bends, said parallel portions and the short bends being incased in the folded edges of sheet metal shield portion9. The incased wires form shank and handle for the; convenient manipulation ofthe' device.
pressure in the side of the tie creases at sub-' In the views 5 designates the frame which .without departing from the gist of'the in- The bends, where they occur in the frame Clip engaging the inner Wires of the barbs are acute, and the side portions of the frame" Serial No. 324,696.
stantially all points at opposite sides of the stitched medial line a-b of the tie. This is because of the sharp bends in the wire frame at its top and bottom.
Below the point 6 the stretching pressure will frequently overreach the primary creases, the tie below that point being unrestrained by the medial stitching and .to make it practicable to iron the tie while in the frame and restore and preserve its original creases the barb-like portions 8 should be drawn toward each other as indicated by broken line Fig. 1. For this purpose the structure is provided with a metallic slide piece or chip 10 having its ends bent to form loops or hooks that engage the inner wires of the said barb-like portions, so that by adjusting the slide 10 downward the barb :portions of the frame can be drawn together to the .desired' extent, as for example; as
shown in broken lines Fig. 1, and thereby relieve to the extent desired the end of the tie beyond the medial stitching of the stretching effect of the frame and permit the fabric thereof to be drawn inward to make the line of the originalcreases at the end of the tie coincide with the wire. When this is done that portion of the'tie can also be ironed to restore the original crease.
The device is not only useful in reforming the tie by ironing but will have a good effect in resetting the fabric if left in the tie over night. i
The forms of the parts can be changed 85.
vention as claimed.
What I claimisz 1. A necktie reforming device including a wire frame in the outline of a spear head with sharp side barbs at the base, a shank portion between said barbs formed of substantially parallel wire portions constituting a handle between said barbs, and a slidable adapted to draw the barbs toward each other and the shank portion.
2. A necktie reforming device consisting of a wire frame in the outline of a spear head including sharp side barbs at the base,
its point having a V-shaped inward bend, a shank of substantially parallel Wire portions between said barbs, a shield incasing said shank portion, and a slidable clip engaging the inner wires of the barbs adapted to draw them toward each other and said shank portion.
WILLIAM B. KLIVER.
