This invention relates to improvements in devices for retaining neckties in place; and more particularly neckties of the four-in-hand type. An object of my invention is to provide a device which will automatically serve to retain, or hold, the necktie from drawing in at the last knot of the tie. in other words, to force the last, or outer, strand of the tie outward, in a more or less curved appearance, whereby there will be no tendency of the tie to present a contracted, or out-of-shape appearance, at this particular part of the tie.
The invention is further designed to prevent the tie from becoming displaced, both vertically and laterally, when the device is installed, or inserted.
Broadly, my device comprises a bendable memw ber of comparatively thin sheet metal, that is formed with a broad, slightly and outwardly, curved-shaped portion, an integral extension that projects upward from the broad-shaped member and formed with a downwardly extending, hook part, at its upper end, to be placed over the iirst turn of the neck band, under the second turn and the front, or last, downwardly extending flap portion of the tie. This broad-shaped portion is formed with struck-up portions that have sharp, or pointed ends, which extend downwardly, in a vertical direction for engaging the under surface A of the outer depending part of the tie, to prevent both the vertical and lateral displacement of the tie, and also serve to hold the tie outward, in a neat appearance.
Referring to the drawing:-
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the device, detached from the tie.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, illustrating the sharp, retaining points.
Fig. 3 is a iront elevational view, showing the tie, when fully made up, with my device assembled in place.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4 -4 of Fig. 3, showing the hook-shaped portion over the irst lateral, or cross turn, around the back member of the tie, and with the broad, lower, plate portion, under the outer part of the made-up tie, with the sharp prongs imbedded in the back of the outer, depending part of the tie, and
Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line 5-5 of band; 4, the portion folded around the portion 1'.
5 is the portion that is passed around, under the portion 1', then laterally across the front, indicated at 6, then back under the neck band at 6', (see Fig. 4), then over at 7, and down under thefront cross portion 6, shown at 8, where it depends, as indicated at 9.
Before the portion 8 is drawn down tightly, the device 10, shown in Fig. 1, is assembled with the tie, by placing the hook 11, at the upper end of the extension 11', over the top of the portion 4 and with the broad, curved portion 12 on the inner, depending portion 2, as shown in Fig. 5. The outer, depending portion 9 is now drawn down under the transverse, outer portion, or fold 6. The sharp prongs 13 are now imbedded, as shown in Fig. 5, in the under side of the outer, depending part 9, thus retaining it in place, vertically and laterally. The curved shape of the part 12 of the device 10 is now located at the lower edges 14, which serve to keep, or retain, the cuter, depending portion 9 from drawing inward, as it usually does, at this point. In other words, my device serves the purpose of causing the completed made-up tie to stand outward in a neat full appearance. The hook 11 prevents the device 10 from becoming displaced. My device also serves to prevent the tie from becoming laterally displaced, after the tie is completed. The prongs 13 serve to keep the last knot portion from drawing in.
It is, of course, obvious that the device may be readily removed by slightly drawing downward on the outer flap portion 9, to disengage the sharp points 13; the hook 11 may then be removed and the tie untied and removed.
My device is completely concealed, when in place, and may be used repeatedly. The curved portions 10' serve to strengthen the extension 11 against breakage, or bending,
What 1 claim is;
1. As an article of manufacture, a necktie form comprising a member with a substantially large ovalescent portion horizontally arcuated and a relatively narrow extension projecting therefrom and located perpendicularly relative to the longest axis of said ovalescent portion, said narrow extension being formed with a rearwardly facing hook at its end portion,
2. An article of manufacture, for the purpose described, comprising a one-piece member formed with a substantially elliptically-shaped part, that is curved on its longest axis, an extension part formed with a hook at its outer end facing toward the axis of the curved part, and means on the elliptically-shaped part for engaging the oppoa made-up four-i'n-hand tie for retaining it in place, and the hook so shaped as to t over the upper edge of a turn of the neck band to prevent downward slippage of the device.
4. As an article of manufacture, a tie holder comprising a member with an ellipsoidal and arcuated portion having struck-up sharp points, an extension portion having a rearwardly extending bent part for attaching the article to the tie.
