UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TIE FGRM y LouiskZussman, Kirkwood, Mo. Application `October' 11, 1947, Serial No. 779,300
1 Claim. 1
The present invention relates generally to necktie supporting and shaping devices, and more particularly to a necktie form for shaping a knot and supporting a necktie of `the four-in-hand type for immediate application to and removal f from a shirt collar.
lwhich is designed to shape a Windsor knot and `to support the knotted tie for wear.
Another object is to provide a novel tie form Vwhich is contoured to have a four-in-hand tie knotted thereon and to support the tie in wearing relation to a shirt collar.
Another object is to provide a novel tie form which is contoured to have a four-in-hand type vtie knotted thereon in permanent relation, thereby saving wear and tear on the tie which results from the numerous tyings and untyings thereof when worn in the usual manner.
Other objects are to provide a novel tie form which readily adapts a four-in-hand tie to a collar, whichy provides a full knot of desired depth, which is inexpensive to make and which may be retailed for a low price, which may be supported by elastic bands, or the like, in wearing position against a shirt collar, and which insures a neat knot for the wearer.
The foregoing and other objects and advantages are apparent from the following description taken with the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front View of a tie form constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention, with a four-in-hand tie knotted thereon by a Windsor knot;
Fig. 2 is a rear View thereof, elastic supporting means being indicated in broken lines;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged front View of the tie form;
Fig. 4 is a rear View thereof;
Fig. 5 is an end View thereof;
Fig. 6 is a section on the line S-t of Fig. 3, looking in the direction of the arrows;
Fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 'l-l of Fig. 3, looking in the direction of the arrows; and
Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional View on the line 8-8 of Fig. 3. l
Referring to the drawing more particularly by `reference numerals, lo indicates generally a tie form incorporating the teachings of the present invention. The form lli includes a supporting portion l2 oiarcuate form and a depending central knot forming portion I4.
The supporting portion l2 includes oppositely extending wings l5 and I6, each of which has an aperture I1 therethrough near the free end thereof. Each aperture Il is adapted to receive one or two hook members connected by an elastic band, or to receive one end of an elastic member l@ such as is usually employed with bow ties, or the like, it being understood that one member i8 will include a hook and the other a hook-receiving loop in the well-known manner.
The depending portion M is of generally triangular shape (Figs. 3 and Ll) and is of arcuate transverse cross section, as is clear from Figs. 6 through 8. The depending portion lli is joined to the supporting portion i2 by an ofi-center neck 2t, in effect, thus providing a shallow notch 2l and a deep notch 22. The angle between the depending portion It and the supporting `portion l2 may be varied from that shown in the drawing. As shown, the depending portion lo will lift the tie knot from the shirt; for closer wear, the depending portion ifi may be formed at an acute angle to the supporting portion l2.
The depending portion lil is shown of a form particularly adapted to shape a Windsor knot; a Windsor knot 2li being shown in Figs. 1 and 2 securingv atie 2li to the tie form il). Manifestly, the depending portion lll may be varied in shape. Itis to be noted that the transverse arcuate cross section of the depending portion Hl insures a full-bodied knot.
In applying the tie 2t to the form i0, the Windsor knot is formed in the usual manner of tying such a knot. The notches 2l and 22 anchor the tie material in the initial phases of the knot. The larger notch 22 also provides for receiving surplus material at this side of the knot and insures a smooth even Windsor knot.
It is contemplated that the tie 26 will remain applied to the form it, which will facilitate its application of and removal from a shirt collar. Furthermore, a smooth even knot is always available for instant use, it being well recognized generally that a Windsor knot is exceedingly diicult to tie, and, hence, often requires considerable time in its execution. In addition, the mastering of a Windsor knot is indeed diflicult and perfection is attained by few.
Since the tie 26 remains on the form I0, wear and tear occasioned by tying and untying is obviated. It is well known that manipulating a tie trays the edges and wrinkles the tied portion.
Manifestly, the tie can be removed when it is required to clean the surface of the knot.
The present tie form I0 may be conveniently made of plastic, although other materials may be employed, if desired.
It is apparent that there has been provided a tie form which fulfills the objects and advantages sought therefor.
It is to be understood that the foregoing description and the accompanying drawing have been given by Way of illustration and example. It is also to be understood that changes in form of the elements, rearrangement of parts, and substitution of equivalent elements, which will b e obvious to those skilled in the art, are contemplated as within the scope of the present invention which is limited only by the claims which follow. Y
What is claimed is:
An integral tie form comprising oppositely extending wing portions, and a depending central tie receiving body portion, said body portion being joined to said wing portions by a neck portion of less width than the width of the upper 4 part of the body portion, there being a tie receiving notch at each side of the neck portion, said neck portion being off-center relative to said body portion and one notch thereby being deeper than the other notch, said body portion being of shield configuration and of arcuate cross section both horizontally and vertically providing a rear cavity Within Which tie material is received.
