BUTTON AND LOOP CLASP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 3, 1905.
Application filed January 11, 1905. Serial No. 240,641.
To all whom it 71mg concern:
Be it known that I. CHRIsTEN TYRTZEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Button and Loop Clasps; 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 to the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to garment-clasps, but more particularly has reference to button and loop clasps that are commonly used on the 5 ends of hose-supporters.
The obect of my improvement is to bind the garment firmly against the under side of the button-head in an ordinary button and loop clasp and to prevent the elements of the clasp from becoming accidentally disengaged.
IVith these ends in view my invention consists in certain details of construction and combination of parts, such as will be hereinafter fully set forth and then specifically designated by the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this application, Figure l is a plan view showing my improved clasp; Fig. 2, a side elevation of my construction, with the 0 clasping elements disengaged; Fig. 3, a view similar to Fig. 2, with the clasping elements engaged; Fig. 4, a detail plan view of the base-plate, and Fig. 5 a detail perspective view of the resilient loop.
3 5 Similar numbers of reference denote like parts in the several figures of the drawings.
My improvement is identified with clasps which comprise a metallic base-plate having therein a pear-shaped opening the smaller end of which latter is at the forward end of said plate and a headed button whose shank can be drawn into'the small part of said opening, while the head has a diameter greater than the width of this particular part of the opening. This style of garment-clasp while exceedingly popular has two defectsnamely, the accidental withdrawal of the button from the narrow portion of the opening in the baseplate and the consequent disengagement of the clasping elements and the slipping of the garment from the clasp of these elements. My improvement does away with these defects,
and consists in adding a single element to the ordmary construction of clasp above noted, and Wlll be best understood from the following description.
1 is a rigid base-plate, preferably made of metal, having therein an opening 2, which is enlarged at its rear end and is contracted at its forward end, said plate being secured at its rear extremity to any ordinary tape 3.
4 is the usual button having an overhanging head which is carried by a flexible tape 5, which latter is secured in the usual manner to the main tape 3.
The parts above described constitute the usual form of button and loop garment-clasp; and my improvement consists in providing a resilient loop 6, whose rear end is secured directly upon the upper face of the plate 1 by means of small ears 7, which project inwardly from said plate and are curled around the loop. The'opening in this loop corresponds generally with the opening in the plate 1, the width of the narrow portion of the opening in this loop at its forward end being less than thediameter of the head of the stud i. This loop is inclined upwardly from its rear end to a point about midway of its length and thence depressed toward its forward extrem- 8o ity, and in normal position this loop extends forward immediately above the plate, but at a distance therefrom, and with its middle portion elevated above the plane of its rear end.
In utilizing my improvement the garment 5 is placed over the stud and the latter forced upwardly through the enlarged portions of the openings in the plate and loop and then drawn forward into the contracted portions of said openings. W hen an attempt is made to draw the button forward, the head of said button will impinge against the inclined portion of the loop; but the latter will yield, owing to its resiliency, as the under side of the head is forced against the incline of the loop, and when said stud has passed into the narrow opening of the loop the higher portion of the latter will have sprung back and will impinge against the garment, thus holding the latter firmly against the under side of the head, so as to prevent any possible slipping of said garment from the grasp of the clasping members. In order to release the garment, the stud must be withdrawn against the resiliency of the loop, and therefore it will be clear that this withdrawal is not likely to be effected by accident.
I prefer to make the loop from spring-wire; but of course such loop can be constructed from sheet metal without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A garment-clasp comprising a base-plate having an opening therein, a flexible tape to which the rear end of said plate is secured, a spring-loop having an opening the rear end of which loop is secured to said plate while the middle portion of said loop is elevated above the plane of the rear end, a button having an overhanging head adapted to be inserted in the openings in said plate and loop and to be drawn forward, and an auxiliary flexible tape connecting said button and said first-named tape.
2. Agarment-claspcomprisingabuttonand a metal plate having an elongated opening therein, a flexible tape to which the rear end of said plate is secured, a resilient metal loop whose rear end is secured to said plate the inside width of said loop at its front end being less than the diameter of the bu tton-head while the middle portion of the loop is elevated above the plane of the rear end thereof, and an auxiliary flexible tape connecting said button and said first-named tape.
3. A garment-clasp comprising a rigid baseplate having lengthwise therein an opening which is comparatively large at the rear portion and contracted at its front portion, a flexible tape to which the rear end of said plate is secured, a button consistingof a shank and an overhanging head, an auxiliary flexible tape connecting said button and said firstnamed tape, and a resilient metal loop secured at its rear end to the rear upper face of said plate, said loop being inclined upwardly from its rear end to a point about midway of its length and then depressed toward its front end.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHRISTEN W'YRTZEN.
