coMronr COLLAR-CLASP:
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 14, 1919.
Application filed April 25, 1918. Serial No. 230,706.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, ANDREW J. DE Bownn, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Dane, in the county of Dane and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Comfort Collar- Clasps, of which I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. I
The objects of the invention are to provide an improved form of collar clasp for the rear side of the collar and which when inserted will remain perfectly flat between the folds of the collar and shirt band and which will not obstruct the movements of a necktie when it is adjusted to its position before tying the bow or knot therein.
The invention comprises an elongated eye or body of spring metal, the extremities of which are spaced apart and project laterally from one side thereof, and terminate in locking members preferably in closed eyes, capable when pressed together, of being inserted with ease into the button holes of the band and collar, and which when released, will spring apart and hold the collar firmly in place.
The invention and its manner of use are illustrated in the accompanying drawings in' a preferred form of construction and are hereinafter described and the novelty specified in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective of a shirt band, showing the position of the device when firstinserted in the button hole; 5
Fig. 2 shows the second position adapted for attachment to the collar;
Fig. 3 shows the manner of attachment to the collar;
Fig. 4: is an enlarged plan of the clasp;
Fig. 4 is an enlarged face view of the clasp;
Fig. 5 is an edge elevation thereof;
Fig. 6 is a transverse section enlarged, showing the final posit on of the clasp in the folds of the band and collar.
In these views, A represents the band of a shirt, in the back of which, a pocket is formed between the two thicknesses of cloth bodyof the clasp, which is open at one side and its extremitiesare turned laterally outward at right angles to the side of the ring, at E, E to form stems which are provided Withbackwardly turned eye shaped extremities, E, E, smoothly rounded for insertion 1n the button holes; The stems E, E, are
first bent outwardly and then inwardly to keep the folds of the collar, as flat as possible.
In Fig. 1' is shown the manner of insertion in the button hole C of the shirt band. Here the terminal eyes and stems are inserted from beneath into the cavity between the folds of the band and the eyes are projected through the button hole C, in an upward direction.
The position of the clasp is then reversed as shown in Fig. 2, with the body of the clasp moved upward into the'top of the band and the stems and eyes projecting downward in position to be attached to the collar as shown in Fig. 3. Here the stems and terminal eyes are shown projecting downward through the button hole G, of the collar H, and when released the eyes spread apart and extend beyond the button hole to lock the collar in its place.
The clasp is fiat and opposes no resistance to the movement of the necktie, and on account of its great resiliency is easily com-' pressed for insertion and withdrawal from the adjacent parts. The terminals of the stems are extended laterally therefrom" to form locking means to secure the collar to the shirt band. 7 i V The use of the thin clasp makes it possible to wear a smaller collar with the same or a greater degree of comfort than when a stud is employed, since the clasp will not project against the outer fold of the collar. This is important with uniforms which have stiff and high coat collars.'
Having described the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a clasp for attaching a collar to a folded neck band a flattened loop adapted to lie in the fold of the neck band and provided with integral laterally and outwardly extending spring locking prongs spaced apart and adapted to pass through the button hole in the outer fold of said band, said spring prongs provided with terminal eyes adapted when the prongs are compressed to pass through the button hole in the collar and to engage the collar at both ends of the button hole when released.
2. In a clasp adapted to pass through the button holes of a neck band and collar, a flattened spring wire loop provided with central opening in one side, the Wire fornr ing said open side turned outwardly at right angles to said side on each side of said opening to produce a compressible stem, the eX- treniities of said stem provided with locking eyes.
3. In a clasp adapted to connect a collar with a neck band through the button holes therein, a body portion formed of a laterally extended loop of spring wire, having 15 a side opening and compressible stem there on, composed of parallel spring Wire members integrally and outwardly extending from the sides of said openings, said stem insertible in the button holes in said band 20 In presence 0'f WM.
