PATENT OFFIC GEORGE TV. PRENTIOE, on PROVIDENCE, RHODEISLAND.
BUTTON-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 278,360, dated May. 29, 1983.
Application filed April 5, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. PRENTIGE, acitizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of" Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements I in Button -Fastenings; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the artto which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, and toletters or figures of reference marked thereoinwhich form a part of this specifica'tion.
My invention relates to that class of buttonpoints which are passed through the shoe or other article to which it is intended to apply clinched on the under side of the material; and my improvement relates to certain details of construction, which will be hereinafter described, and distinctly pointed outin the claim.
7 Referring to the drawings making a part of this specification, and in which like letters of 1 is a view of the fastener. Fig. 2 shows the button applied to the loop and secured to a piece of material by upsetting theprongs of the fastener. Fig. 3 is a modification, showing a hole in one of the prongs. Fig. 4 is a view showing a button attached by means of A piece of suitable metal is formed with the L loop or eye A to receive the button-eye, and on each side of said loop are flat surfaces a a, which forinbearing-surfaces on top of the material when the button is applied. The free ends b and b are bent at right angles to the flat portion of the fastener, or what might be termed its shank. The prongs b bare different lengths and of such proportions relatively that in upsetting them the one will be covered by the other, thus leaving but a single uncovered pointon theinside-a result greatly to be desired, especially when the devicais used for securing buttons to shoes or gaiters. I prefer to use semi-tubular or corrugated metal in the construction of the fastener, as the one point will then be entirely covered in the concave part thereof; butI do not wish to limit myself to this form of metal, as an excellent fastener may be produced from metal ofother forms.
The modification shown in Fig. 3 consists of forming on the long prong b a flattened surface, through which a hole is made to receive the short prong 0 during the operation of attaching a button'to fabric, asshown in Fig. 4.
Having thus fully described my invention, WhatI claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A button-fastener comprising a loop or eye for the button, a: d flatbearing-surfaceson each side thereof, and having a long and ashort prong, and adapted to be applied to a shoe or other articles, as described, so that one prong will covert-he point of the other, as set forth.
In. testimony whereof I have affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
