NECKTIE Filed May 26, 1934 INVENTOR.
ATTORNEY.
Patented Oct. 2, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.
My invention relates particularly to four-in hand neckties. A four-in-hand tie after being used for a time becomes worn and soiled at the knot or point where it istied and" also a short i distance above and below the knot to such an ex' and soiled at and adjacent the knot, totie the knot at a new place thereby permitting the soiled part to be drawn beneath the collar out of sighti and'at the same time avoiding the unsightly appearance of having the lower small end of the tie protruding below end.
My invention consists in providing a tie, either 5 while in the process of making or after it is finished and otherwise ready for use, at points approximately one and one-half and two and one-half inches respectively from its narrow end, and preferably below the lower end of the middle longitudinal seam of the tie, with two pairs of parallel hemstitched lines, the lines composing each pair being approximately one-eighth of an inch apart and preferably running parallel to the outer contour of the smaller end of the tie,
so that when the user desires to shift the knottying portion of the tie, after it becomes worn or soiled, to a new position, it is merely necessary to sever the lower end of the tie by cutting through between either of the two pairs of hemstitched lines, as may be desired to obtain the required length of tie. The lower narrow end of the tie from which a portion has been severed will now have a finished picot edge that will not fray or ravel. If in the first instance a portion of the tie has been severed at the first or lower of the two pairs of hemstitch lines, it is possible if desired and if the tie in general is still in good condition, to shift the knot-tying portion a second time, thus trebling or at least further extending the life of the tie.
My invention also consists in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction as herein set forth and claimed.
- In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a tied four-inhand tie;
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the small end of a four-in-hand tie, the end of which has been partly severed to show the picot or finished edge and beyond the upper wider of the tie after cutting through between the double row of hemstitches;
Fig. 3 shows the shape taken by the small end of the tie after the end'part has been cut away;-
and
' Fig. 4 is a'perspective view of a tie retied after the small end has been cut away. I
In the embodiment of my invention as illustrated and which shows a preferred construction, the small end 1 of the tie 2 is provided approximately one and one-half and two and one-half inchesrespectively' from its free end with two pairs of hemstitch lines, 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 respectively; the lines of each pair being approxi: mately one-eighth of an inch apart and disposed 7 0 parallel to 'thecontour of the lower endof the tie.
The hemstitching is formed by punching aseries of holes, 8 and 9 respectively, in the goods, a short distance apart thus compressing the in-- tervening threads of the material 10 and 11 respectively, close together and at the same time hemstitching the edges, 12 and 13 and 14 and 15 respectively, of the goods adjacent and on each side of the rows of holes, so that when the threads 10 or 11 between the hemstitch lines 3 and 4 or 5 and 6, are severed, a picot edge 16 is formed, which is finished and will not fray or ravel.
When the tie is worn or soiled or both at the point of tying the knot 17, this soiled and worn portion will be automatically shifted so that it will be concealed beneath the collar by merely cutting through between either one. of the double rows of hemstitches 3 and 4 or 5 and 6, as may be preferred by the wearer to obtain the desired length, or which may be necessary because of the particular necksize, and removing a portion or the narrow end of the tie. The tie is thus shortened so that when placed upon the neck to be tied, the knot is formed in a new position and the worn and soiled portion is shifted beneath the collar out of sight.
By providing the tie with two pairs of spaced apart hemstitch rows I make it possible for the wearer, when shifting the position of the knot, to adjust the tie to his particular necksize and at the same time obtain the desired length. Providing the tie with two pairs of hemstitch rows also makes it possible for the wearer if he so desires to substantially treble the life of the tie by first removing the portion 18 by cutting threads 11 between hemstitch lines 5 and 6 and later when the tie becomes soiled and worn at the new knot it can, if the tie in general is still in good condition, be shifted a second time by cutting threads 10 between hemstitch lines 3 and 4 to sever another portion 19 of the tie.
In order to be unnoticeable the hemstitching in the tie should correspond in color to the predominating color in the material of the tie.
When a tie not provided with my invention is shifted in position so that the knot will be formed at a new point and the soiled and worn portion concealed, the bottom of the smaller narrow end of the tie will protrude in length downwardly below and beyond the upper and wider portion of the tie which only should be exposed and which in effect should cover the lower portion of the smaller end of the tie. This produces an unsightly and untidy appearance which is entirely eliminated and avoided by the use of my invention.
My invention is capable of some modification without departure from its scope or spirit as defined in the claims.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A necktie having a pair of hemstitched lines disposed transversely through the narrow end portion of the tie at a distance from its free end whereby a portion thereof may be severed by merely cutting through the intervening threads between said pair of hemstitched lines thereby leaving a finished edge at the narrow end of the tie and shortening the tie sufliciently to conceal beneath the collar of the wearer the worn and soiled portion of the tie whenfurther used and permitting the free ends of the tie to be of substantially equal length when tied, the narrow portion being fully covered by the wider portion.
2. A necktie having-a plurality of pairs of hemstitched lines extending in spaced apart relation across and through the narrow end portion of the tie at a distance from its free end whereby the portion of the tie between its end and between row portion being fully covered by the wider portion.
3. A necktie having hemstitching disposed across and through the narrow end portion of the tie at a substantial distance from its free end whereby the end portion thereof may be severed by merely cutting along the hemstitching thereby leaving a finished edge at the narrow end of the tie after such severing and shortening the tie sufiiciently to conceal beneath the collar of the wearer the worn and soiled portion of the tie when further used and permitting the free ends of the tie to be of substantially equal length when tied.
4. A necktie having hemstitching disposed across and through the narrow end portion of the tie at some distance from its free end and whereby a portion thereof may be severed by merely cutting along the hemstitching, said hemstitching corresponding in color to the predominating color of the tie, thereby leaving a finished edge at the narrow end of the tie when severed and shortening the tie sufficiently to conceal beneath the collar of the wearer the worn and 110 soiled portion of the tie when further used and permitting the free ends of the tie to be of substantially equal length when tied.
