Application August 9, 1948, Serial No. 43,340
8 Claims. (Cl. 2152) 1 My-invention relates to and has for a purpose the provision of a necktie which can, without requiring any particular skill, be manipulatedto produce the appearance of a four in hand necktie or an ascot tie, or a modifiedform of an ascot necktie, and all without the tedious process of actually tying the ties as with the conventional ties. Thus, a necktie capable of assuming these various forms is usable in any one thereofas the wearer may select or in keeping with his particular style of shirt or dress.
It-is also a purpose of my invention to provide a necktie which not only is susceptible of asbodying my invention, and will then point out .the novel features thereof in claims.
In the accompanying drawings: Fig. 1 is a view showing in front elevation my necktie in the form simulating an ascot tie, and
applied to a shirt and collar.
Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1 showing another form which my necktie may assume.
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing the necktie in the form simulating that of a fourin-hand tie.
Fig. 4 is a view on an enlarged scale showing the necktie in the form illustrated in Fig. 3, but
' in rear elevation.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary view showing the neckin front elevation and with the flap thereof extended to show the front side thereof.
Fig. 6 is a view showing the necktie in rear elevation and with the flap to the rear side of the body of the necktie.
Fig. '7 is an enlarged vertical sectional view taken on the line 11 of Fig. 6.
Fig. 8 is a view similar to Fig. 7 but showing the flap extended to the forward side of the necktie in the normal position which it assumes when worn.
Fig. 9 is an enlarged sectional view taken on the line 9-9 of Fig. 6.
My invention comprises a body B or skirt and flap F, both of which are made of any suitable necktie fabric and provided on their unexposed sides with suitable linings l5 and I6, respectively, stitched at their edges to the edges of the two pieces of fabric. The body or skirt B iselongated, slightly tapered, and normally of considerable width in respect to its length. Its lower or wide end I! is shaped in the form of a .conventional necktie, while its upper end has a linear transverse edge l8.
The flap F has an upper straight edge [9, side edges tapered as at 20 for a portion of their length and then converging as at 2| for the remainder of their length, and to a point 22. While I have described a specific shape of flap, it will be understood that such shape while desirable is not necessary, and, hence, may be varied so long as the flap performs the functions intended as will be later described herein.
The manner in which the flap F is associated with the body B is best illustrated in Figs. 7 and 8, wherein it will be seen that the upper edge IQ of both lining l6 and flap F are secured to the lining l5 and to the body B by a transverse line of stitching 23, and at a point spaced from the upper edge [8 of the body B. Also, at a point spaced from the edge I!) of the flap the lining I6 is secured to the flap by stitching along a transverse line 24, and in such manner as to give fullness to the lining so that it cooperates with the flap to form a transverse sleeve 25.
The sleeve'25 is provided for the purpose of receiving a strip 26 preferably of elastic'material so that it may be stretched lengthwise. The opposite ends of the strip project from the ends of the sleeve and in these ends are secured. eyes 21 of wire hooks 28 having pointed free ends 29. These hooks 28 constitute elements for attaching the flap F to the neck portion of a shirt as will be described hereinafter, and it will be understood that other attaching elements than these may be employed without departing from the spirit of my invention.
As shown in Fig. 6, the rear side of the fla F, that is, the lining side, has secured thereto so that they are not exposed at the front side of the flap, the two parts 30 and 3| of aconventional snap fastener. These parts 30 and 3| are preferably secured to thetwo corners of the flap formed at the junction of the divergent and convergent edges 28 and 2| in order that when the two parts are engaged one with the other as illustrated in Fig. 4, the flap will assume the form of a fourin-hand tie knot.
In the use of my necktie, the flap F is swung from the rear side of the body B as shown in Fig. 7 over the upper edge 18 of the body and to the front side thereof as shown in Fig. 8. The flap F occupies this position in all the forms which the necktie is adapted to assume as applied to a shirt collar. The necktie is applied to a shirt having an attached collar by extending the upper end of the tie beneath the collar, and manipulating the attaching elements 28 so that the pointed ends 29 pierce the shirt material and thus hold the necktie suspended from the collar.
' It will be understood that the elastic strip 26 affords a spacing adjustment of the elements 23 such that when they are in engagement with the shirt the strip is under tension to prevent disengagement of the hooks from the shirt.
My necktie assumes the general form of an 1 ascot tie when applied with the body B fully extended trans-versely. and the. flap F? fully extended vertically, a'sdllustrated in Fig. 1. i Ifiitgis desired that the necktie assume a modified form of ascot the longitudinal edges of the body B can .be folded inwardly, as indicated in dash lines in Fig. 2, so that the width of the body corresponds substantially to the Width of the flap.
Should it be desired to have the necktie 'assume the general contour ofgthe.rconventional four-in-hand necktie, it is necessary that the tip or pointed end of the flap be folded upwardly as indicated in dash lines-in Fig. 3, whereupon, the :sideedges of the fiapare folded aroundthebody manner -my necktie is caused .toiassume therap- --'-'pearance of a' conventional four-"in hand .necktie.
Manifestly, a wnecktie constructed ;in :,a'ccordance withsmyainvention"can fibe easily manipulated to assume athe-variousforms described, and iniall formsit can bewrea-dilyyattachedbeneath itheicollan'of; a shirt andifirmlyehe'ldtinifixed poisitiontzwith .relationrto 'athe collar. 1 Also, itzmay beireadily detached-from'the shirt-and without wlosing its :form, :souithat when..reapplied: it has the same form.
