2 Claims. 1
This invention relates to cufi holders, that is, devices adapted to be attached to or mounted in or on upturned cuffs of shirt sleeves to prevent undoing of the cuff, and it is one object of this invention to provide a simple and effective cuff holder or retainer which is adapted to be mounted between the sleeve and the upturned cuff to hold the cuff in upturned position and thus prevent its inadvertently being turned down to the annoyance of the wearer.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a device comprising an arcuate base which is adapted to register in the lap of the fold of an upturned cuff, the base having at each end substantially vertical gripping or piercing members adapted to engage both the cuff and the shirt sleeve and thus hold the two together and prevent the cuff from turning down.
ihe above as well as additional objects will become apparent in the following description, wherein characters of reference refer to likenumbered parts in the accompanying drawing. It is to be noted that the drawing is intended to serve the purpose of illustration only, and that it is neither intended nor desired to limit the invention necessarily to any or all of the exact details of construction shown excepting insofar as they may be deemed essential to the invention.
Referring briefly t the drawing,
Fig. 1 is a perspective view, with parts broken away and partly in section, showing a shirt sleeve having the cuff turned up and the invention applied thereto.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 22 of Fig. .1.
Fig. 3 is a front elevational view of the cuff holder per se.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 6 is a sectional View taken on the line 6-6 of Fig. 3.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral I 0 indicates a shirt sleeve having the cuff ll thereof turned up as shown in Fig. 1. The cufi holder comprises an arcuate base l2 which may be approximately semi-circular in outline and of a diameter suitable to permit insertion thereof down into the lap or bight l3 of the fold of the cuff.
Extending upward at right angles to the plane of the base I2 at the extremities of the latter are two similar rods 14 whose extremities 15 extend arcuately outward and are pointed in the manner of a pin, substantially as shown. Secured to the rods I l, one to each and radially inward therefrom, are longer rods l6. Any suitable means may be provided for securing the rods 16 to the rods M, such as, for instance, solder. The
rods l6 extend higher than the rods l4 and are also arched and pointed at their upper extremities, but in opposite directions to the rods 14, that is, inwardly, as shown at IT. A limit stop collar I8 is provided intermediate the arched and pointed extremity of each rod l4 and Hi.
In use, the holder is applied to the sleeve and cuff by setting the base l2 in the fold I 3 so that it rests upon the floor of the fold, asshown in Fig. 1. Then the pointed extremities I! of the rods I6 pierce the sleeve l0 and the pointed extremities l5 of the rods l4 pierce the cuff II, or the cuff II is forced down upon the pointed extremities [5. The collars l8 serve as limit stops to prevent the pointed extremities from passing too far through the cuff or sleeve.
Thus, the cuff is held securely against the sleeve and it is prevented from turning down inadvertently. The desirability of and the common practice of turning the cuffs up is well known.
Obviously, modifications in form and structure may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim:
1. A device adapted to retain the cuff of a sleeve in turned up position comprising an arcuate base adapted to register in the fold between the sleeve and the upturned cuff, said base having a substantially upright member extending from each extremity thereof, each of said members having two oppositely disposed extensions extending from the upper portion thereof, said extensions lying in a common plane substantially at right angles to the plane through said base, said extensions being pointed.
2. A device adapted to retain a cuff of a sleeve in turned up position comprising an arcuate base adapted to register in the fold between the sleeve and the upturned cuff, said base having substantially upright rods on the extremities thereof, the upper extremities of said rods being arched outwardly and pointed, said rods having each a second rod secured thereto along the 'greater portion of the length thereof and of GEORGE D. TYE.
