Description
Sept. 3, 1935. 5 TATE 2,013,256
DETACHABLE BUTTON Filed Aug. 27, 1934 Patented Sept. 3, 1935 UlTED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
or attached to any part of the clothing such as a shirt front to serve as an emergency button until the usual button can be sewed on or replaced.
Another object is to provide a button of this kind comprising simply an attaching clip of spring material having a cleft open at one end to slip over and frictionally engage the garment edge and carrying a button on its outer side which may engage the usual button hole.
With these and other objects in view the invention resides in the novel construction and arrangement of parts as hereinafter fully set forth and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing wherein:
Figure 1 is an outer side elevation of the button.
I Figure 2 is an edge view showing in dotted lines the overlapping edges of a short bosom as joined by my button.
Figure 3 is an inside elevation.
Figure 4 is an outer side elevation of a button with a modified form of clip.
In carrying out my invention and in the embodiment thereof shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, I provide an attaching clip designated generally at 5 comprising a narrow, elongated outer bar or strip 6 to one end of which a button 1 of usual form is secured by rivets 8, the button being spaced outwardly from the bar by a flat washer or sleeve 9. A spring clamp I 0 of strip spring material is provided and is secured to the outer bar 6 by turning the end I l thereof, remote from the button 1, over and inward to receive the end of the clamp 10. A small rivet I2 is passed through the clamp and bar at this point holding the parts tightly together. The clamp lll then extends along inwardly of the bar 6 and is curled inwardly at its free end l3 and tensioned so that this end I3 normally and resiliently bears against the inner face of the bar 6 adjacent and inwardly of the button I.
In use, as for joining the overlapping flaps or margins A and B of a shirt bosom (not shown), the clip is mounted on the inner flap A by inserting said flap between the end I3 of the clamp and the outer bar 6 so that the button 1 is turned outwardly and exposed as shown. The outer flap B having the usual button hole (not shown) is then buttoned over the button 1 in the usual manner and the flaps are held together. The entire clip structure 5 is hidden and outwardly the button 1 appears as the usual sewed-on button. A very convenient emergency repair is thus made should a button be lost and it is readily evident that my invention may be used on other parts of the clothing as well as on a shirt. The spacing washer 9 provides space to receive the garment as it slips over the button I and the curled end l3 of the clamp Iii facilitates its mounting over the garment edge as will be apparent. The two part construction of the clip 5 however allows a heavy and eificient spring material to be used for the clamp I0 thus affording a considerable holding tension while yet allowing the outer bar 6 to be made and formed from alight and readily worked material.
In Figure 4 the outer bar 6a and clamp Inc are shown as formed integrally from a single piece of strip spring material but intermediate its ends at M back on itself to properly dispose the bar and clamp as described hereinbefore. Otherwise the function and the mounting of the button la remains the same.
While I have herein set forth a certain preferred embodiment of my invention, it is understood that I may vary from the same in minor structural details, so as best to construct a practical device for the purpose intended, not departing from the spirit of the invention and within the scope of the appended claim.
I claim:
In a device of the kind described, an outer bar, a button riveted near one end of the bar, a spacing washer between the button and bar, a clamp of spring material, the end of the outer bar opposite to the button being turned inwardly and. over to receive one end of the clamp, a rivet passed through this end of the bar and clamp, and the free end of the clamp being curled inwardly and adapted to normally bear against the outer bar inwardly of the said button.
