UNITED STATES PATENT orF cE.
FRANKLIN 3. WHITE, or WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, Assrenon To HE PATENT NECTIGUT.
CONINECTIGU'I A CORPORATION OF CON V FOUR-HOLE saw-on BUTTON.
Application filed November 16, 1925i Serial Nd. 69,321.
To all whom'it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANKLIN R. WHI E, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inFour- I-loleSew-On Buttons, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in four-hole buttons of the sew-on type and has for an object to design the hub of the button so that when the button is placed in an automatic button sewing machine, the buttonwill be properly guided and controlled in its movement to the needle or needles and the four holes in the button will be directly in the path of the needle, so that the'button may be readily attached to the garment. I
The present application is a companion of four others filed by me of'even date herewith, to wit, Serial Nos. 69,318; 69,319; 69,820 and 69,822.
As is well known to those skilled in the art, button attaching machines are provided with various mechanisms for properly centering and locating the buttons beneath the needles and the general practice is to use a button of the ordinary type.
The present button contemplates a special form of hub, so that the mechanism ofthe button attaching machine may be much more simple, as the shape of the hub causes the button to be centered and run down the chute to the needle of the machine.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain new and novel arrangements as will be hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims.
Referring now to the drawings showing a preferred embodiment and a slightly modified form of the invention,
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of the button, the dotted line showing the shape of the outer end of the hub.
Fig.- 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a rear view of the button showing the square end of the hub and the location of the openings.
Fig. 4 is a plan view of a slightly modified form of button.
Fig. 5 is a sectional View taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 4, and 7 Fig; 6 is a rear viewshowing the hub rounded at two edges and having parallel side walls merging with these edges.
Referring now more specifically to the drawings, and for the present to Figs. 1, 2 and 3, I have shown a button comprising a body portion 1 the rim'2 and the button depressed centrally of its face as at 3. i A hub 4- is showncentrally of-the button, this hub being circular in outline where it merges with the body portion, but its periphery is cut tofcrm the side walls 5, 6,7 and 8.
In other words the end of the habit; square,'as may be. seen in Fig. 3. This square-ended hub may be formed by initially forming the button with a round hub and then cutting the sides, or the button may be made in a die and the four walls formed at the time the button is made.
The button may be made of'wood, metal, bone, shell, or other suitable material, the gist of the invention being the protruding square ended hub, so that the same may neatly fit within a chute or track and be guided in its movement. "Also, an important feature of the invention is the location of the holes 20 in the square ended hub, so that when the buttons are fed from a chute, not
only will the button be properly guided in its movement, but the holes may properly register beneath the needle.
It will also beunderstood that'inasmuch as thehub has the square end, the button may be in any one of four positions, as it is fed tothe needle or needles.
Referring now to Fig. 3, there will be seen the center point 9 on the surface of the hub, and if two lines are first drawn at rightangles to each other and through the center point, it will divide the end into four squares. In each one of theseparts there is provided a hole for the reception of a needle so that a thread may be passed through the garment and the holes to attach the button. These holes 20 are located centrally of the aforementioned divisions and if additional.
diagonal lines be then drawn from the four corners, they will intersect the centers of these four holes.
By constructing a button in this manner,
the buttons may be placed in an automatic button attaching machine (not shown) and either set of parallel sides will center and guide the button init's movement as'it passes down a cooperating chute to theneedleo'r needles of the machine. I
These automatic' button' machines are generally provided with a rotating hopper and as the holes are all in geometrical relation and equi-distant from the cent-er and sides, the buttons may register with the openings in the chute when many of fourpositio'ns and'be properly andcorrectly guided and positioned to receive the needles when it reaches the desired point beneath the needle. a
In Figs. 4, 5 and 6 I have shown a slightly modified form'in that there are only two parallel side walls, while the opposite ends conform to the shape of the hub, or in other words, are arcuate. v
This button comprises the bodyqportion 10, rim 11, hub 12 and depressed; central portion 13 on its outer face. The hub also has the rounded ends lt and 14 and is cut away at its sides to formthe parallel side walls 15 and 16as may be readily seen from-' Fig. 6.
The four holes17 are provided, as may be seen in the severalfigures, and are in the identical positions as shown in the preferred form, each center of the holesbein equidistant :fro-mthe center point 18 on tie surface of the. hub.
, With a button of this type the same may be in one of two positionsto pass into a chute, while the parallel side walls 15 and 16 will properly guide the button to the.
position below the needle and' the holes, of course, will be in-a registerlngposition with the needle.
' This application is somewhat similar to a companion case; bearing Serial Number 9522;
From the-foregoing it will be seen that I have provided arbutton which is relatively cheap to manufacture,- and may be'ma de to cooperate with more simple mechanism of a button attaching machine than is now in use.
Many slight changes might be madewithout in any way departii'ig from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claimas new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A four-hole sew-0n button comprising a body portion, a depending hub, said depending hu'bhavingat least two parallel faces opposite eachother, the saidhub provided with four holes, all," arranged equidistant from the central point'on'the end of the hub and two'hole's adj acent each parallel side, and thesaid parallelsides adapted to properly guide and locate the button in a button attachingmachine.
2. A four-hole sew-on button comprising a body portion, a depending hub, said hub being reduced at its" end to 'form the hub square in outline, the hub having four holes extending thercthrouglr and arranged so that it diagonal lines are drawn fronrthe' corners of the square, each line will intersect the center of two of sald holes, and the square-ended hub adapted to center and guide the button in its movement to the needle 101 an automatlci button sewing machine. a I
3. A four-hole sew-on button comprising a a body portion, a square ended hub, said hub provided with four holes therethrough and arranged equidistant from a central point on the end of the hub, and two holes located adjacentall four sides of the square and the said square-ended hub adapt edto permitlthe button to-' assume one of four positions in a button attaching machine andto guide the button in its path to theneedle of the said machine.
Intestimony whereof I aflix my signature. I
