This invention relates generally to neckties. More particularly, my invention relates to an improved construction of neckties of the fourin-hand type.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide an improved four-in-hand necktie construction which is so designed that a drape or dimple will automatically form beneath the knot when the necktie is made up or worn, regardless of the dexterity of the wearer.
Another object of my invention is to provide an improved four-in-hand necktie construction for the purposes set forth in which a saving of fabric is effected and in which the finished necktie will at the same time possess a maximum of resilience so that it will not tend to stretch out of shape.
Still another object of my invention is to provide a necktie construction of the character described which shall comprise relatively few and simple parts. which shall be easy to construct and assemble, which shall be relatively inexpensive to manufacture, and which at the same time shall be highly efficient and practical for the purposes intended.
Certain features described but not claimed in this application are described and claimed in my co-pending application Serial No. 195,038, filed March 10, 1938, for Neckties and making the same.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements,
and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, in which is shown one of the various possible embodiments of this invention,

Fig. 9 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken substantially on the line 9--9 of Fig. 8;
Figs. 10 and 11 are cross-sectional views similar to Figs. 3 and 4, illustrating the method of stitching together the tie fabric and lining of the Fig. 8 form of my invention; and
Fig. 12 is an elevational View showing the made up necktie constructed in accordance with my invention.
It has been found desirable by wearers of four-in-hand neckties and also by storekeepers who display such neckties in windows and display cases to so manipulate the necktie fabric when making the knot that a drape or a dimple is disposed directly below the knot. A certain amount of manual skill and practice is required to thus create a neat, ornamental and dressy appearance. The present invention therefore contemplates an improved construction of a four-in-hand necktie in which the desired drape or dimple will be automatically formed when the tie is made up, regardless of the dexterity or experience-of the wearer.
Referring now in detail to the drawings, there is disclosed in Figs. 1 to '7 one form of my improved necktie construction which comprises a necktie fabric 20, cut to suitable shape, as shown in Fig. 1, and in which portions 2|, 22, 23, 24 and 25, adjacent the opposite ends thereof, are turned over or hemmed in the manner customarily employed in the art.
In Fig. 1, the full line representation of the longitudinal edges Zfia and 29b of the fabric 20 represent the customary contour of one type of necktie fabric. In accordance with my invention, however, portions adjacent the longitudinal edges 20a and 282) may be cut away, as defined by the dotted lines ac-y, the purpose of which will soon become apparent. In Fig. 2, the fabric 20 is shown as folded substantially on its longitudinal axis with the wrong side of the fabric outermost. Superimposed on the folded fabric is a tie lining 26 of suitable customary material and shape. The said lining 26 is superimposed on the folded fabric 20 in definite relation to a predetermined line of stitching, after which it may be stitched by hand or in accordance with a prevalent method such as that shown and.
described in the patent to R. Naftali et al., Re. 19,653, dated July 23, 1935. However, in the present invention a single continuous straight line of stitching cannot satisfactorily be employed in View of the specifically shaped longitudinal edges a and 20b. It is noted that from the points z to y of the fabric 20 (Fig. 1), the opposed longitudinal edges Zea and 28b, when in folded position as shown in Fig. 2, substantially meet. Therefore, a suitable single line of stitching 35] may extend for such distance in a straight line passing through a portion of the lining 26 and the adjacent folded fabric portions. However, from the points y to it, due to the cut out portions illustrated by the dotted lines in Fig. 1, the line of stitching will not continue in the same direction but instead will branch off into the stitching lines 3| and 32, as shown in Fig. 2.
Any desirable hand or machine method of stitching the lines 3| and 32 may be employed. In Figs. 3 and 4 I have illustrated one method of machine sewing the lines of stitching 3i and 32. In Fig. 3 I have shown how the looped end of the folded fabric 20 is swung over out of the way so that the line of stitching 3| may pierce the lining 26 and the adjacent layer of the fabric 20. After this has been done, the loop of the folded fabric is swung over in an opposite direction to the position shown in Fig. 4, so that the row of stitching 32 may then be free to pierce the lining and only the adjacent portion of the opposite longitudinal edge of the tie fabric 20.
After the stitching operation has been completed, as above described, the necktie is then reversed in the customary manner employed in the art so that the lining is disposed within the tubular fabric casing and, after suitably pressing the same, the back of the finished four-in-hand necktie will appear as shown in Fig. 5. It is noted that the portions y to :c of the longitudinal edges 28a and 20b of the fabric 28, which have been cut out in accordance with the dotted lines shown in Fig. 1, will form a recessed area 35. This recessed area is so positioned that when the tie is made up and worn, as shown in Fig. 12, there will automatically be created a dimple or depression beneath the knot, as shown. This dimple will be caused by the fact that the portions surrounding the recessed area 35 will have an additional layer so that the dimple formed in the made up tie will be created by the outer fabric material falling in the recessed area 35. It is understood that the said recessed area 35 may be made wider or narrower or lengthened, as desired.
While in the Figs. 1 to 7 form of my invention, as above described, I have shown the necktie fabric 28 as having portions yx cut out for the purpose of ultimately forming the recessed area 35, it is understood, however, that this same recessed area 35 may also be formed when the necktie fabric 20 is cut, as is shown in the full line outline of the longitudinal edges 6 In Figs. 8 to 11, I have shown a modified form of my invention which is so designed that when the necktie is completed, the rear side thereof, as shown in Fig. 8, will have a longitudinal recess 40 similar to the recess 35, but extending longitudinally throughout the major portion of the necktie. In this form of my invention a drape or dimple will automatically be formed beneath the knot when the necktie is made up, regardless of the relative lengths of the inner and outer tabs. In this form, the necktie fabric 20 may be cut in any suitable manner so that when the fabrics are properly folded and stitched, a recess t9 will appear as shown in Fig. 8. One such method .is to extend the cut-out portions .1:y of the longitudinal edges shown in Fig. l, to substantially the points 2. In constructing this form of necktie, the stitching may be done by hand, or if desired, by machine. Figs. 10 and 11 illustrate a method of machine stitching the lining 25 and fabric 20' together by lines of stitching 3| and 32, which is similar to the method shown in Figs. 3 and 4, described in connection with the construction of the Figs. 1 to '7 form of my invention. Fig. 10 represents the first step, corresponding to Fig. 3, and Fig. 11 represents the second step, corresponding to Fig. e. In this form of my invention there is no single line of stitching corresponding to the line of stitching 38 shown in Fi 2. It is also noted that this form of my invention may also be constructed by having the longitudinal edges of the fabric cut in any desirable shape and then tucking the said longitudinal edges inwardly before stitching as hereinbefore described. In the latter case, the length and width of the recessed area 48 may be formed as desired.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiments above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawings is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A necktie designed to automatically form a dimple when made up into a knot comprising an outer fabric and an inner lining, the opposed longitudinal edges of said fabric being inwardly folded towards each other at the back of the tie so as to overlap, with the exception of a predetermined portion thereof, the opposed longitudinal fabric edges at such predetermined portion being spaced from each other to define a recessed portion at the back of said tie, said recessed portion being disposed in the knot forming area whereby a dimple or drape will be automatically formed beneath said knot when the tie is made up, said lining being attached to said fabric by a single row of stitching passing through said overlapped fabric edges and eX- tending substantially from the said overlapped edges adjacent one end of said tie, to the beginning of said recessed portion, and separate rows of stitching adjacent the fabric edges on opposite sides of said recessed portion, said last named rows of stitching passing through said last named fabric edges and said lining.
2. A necktie designed to automatically form a dimple when made up into a knot and comtie, and means to attach said rear layer to said forward layer around the exposed part of said forward layer so as to maintain said opposed fabric edges in said portion in fixed relationship 5 to said forward layer.
