[0001] The invention refers to a button to be fixed in a mechanical way on the tissue avoiding
to damage the fibres, the head of which, set on a free articulation, can be introduced
into the eyelet. The buttons for the clothing industry are at present of two types:
buttons with automatic binding half-parts and buttons ideally consisting of a small
disk with bores to be fitted on the tissue by means of sewing, to introduce into eyelets
foreseen to connect on the other part. The first type, which simplifies the manufacturing
of pieces and in the feasibility of the corresponding tissue edges to connect, however,
determines a precarious bending according to the modest resistance done by its retestion
device and does not allow the manufacturing of valuable dressing components. The conventional
system, on the contrary, allows valuable executions, but has the heavy inconveniences
of the fixing sewings and causes a binding condition liable to breaking through wear,
since it is bound by means of threads.
[0002] The invention carries out a new conception button type which excludes fitting by
sewing on the tissue, and an articulated head is foreseen which can be unthreaded
from one of its proper imposing base, which can be more easily fitted and extracted
from the conventional connecting eyelet.
[0003] At present, buttons are foreseen to be mechanically fixed with articulated head
on the small column of the imposer. This system is a highly limiting one since it
requires a cap containing the articulation. Consequently, a compulsory conformation
of the head is required which does not allow to go below some sizes, does not admit
a design versatility and valuable material use. Moreover, since such device does not
allow a shape reentering of the small column supporting the cap, when putting on
the dressing piece, the negative presence of it noted which emerges from the connecting
tissue border.
[0004] In comparison with the present device, the buttom according the invention enables
an additional reduction of the head encumbering which, therefore, can consist even
of a small diameter disk with a low thickness, and a shape reentering which, with
connected edges, brings it to adhere to the tissue. What precedes allows also a design
vertatility and, in particular, to use even precious materials which can be fixed
in different ways on the upper end part of the stem.
[0005] Substantially, the buttom is foreseen with a head 1 on a stem 2, which on issue is
kept by its annular outwards bent end 3 in the entrance 4 of emerging central part
5 of a layer 6. This freely working articulation allows to bend the head 1 and to
change its distance from the tissue facilitating the introduction into the eyelet
and, consequently, the manufactured item can be more easily put on. The button can
be mechanically fitted on the tissue by means of a small ring 7 with jaws 8 which
penetrate into it, without damaging the fibres, and after squeezing are fitted so
as to block everything into the hollow 9 form ed by the outer part of the imposer
6.
[0006] In a version, a part to be fitted is foreseen with a stem 10 having a higher containment
part 11, in binding condition, of a tablet 12 of several kind and, in particular,
of valued material.
[0007] In another version, a part is foreseen which can be inserted by means of a stem 13
which higher part 14 penetrating into cavity 15 of body 16, in particular of valued
material, in order to operate as its binding support.
[0008] Execution forms of the device are illustrated in a merely indicative way and, consequently,
not limiting way, in the drawings of table 1. Referring to this one, figures 1, 2
and 3 show the same type of execution base form of the invention device. In particular,
fig. 1 is the section view of the button with its fitted part on the exit limit and,
separately, of the jaw ring for the mechanical binding. Fig. 2 is the section view
of the button with the inserted part in slanting position. Fig. 3 is the section view
of the button fitted on the tissue. In this condition the button shows a limited
shape re-entering. As it can be noted from the subsequent fig. 4, in the case of a
somehow elastic tissue, a possible increase can be noted in the button shape re-entering.
Fig. 5 is the section view of a button using the end binding part for tablet 12. Fig.
6 is section view of a button using the end binding part 14 for tablet 16. In particular,
if the button is foreseen as part of a single-body head, its carrying out is possible
with different shapes and sizes,also with fitting other either valuable or not valuable
parts.
[0009] The free motion embodiment of the articulation into the imposer 6 enables the double
advantage of carrying out a reduction of the base button operative encumbering by
means of shape reentering which, in employ phase, allows to improve the possibility
of wearing the dressing piece by letting the button head adhere to the tissue of
the connected border.
[0010] The shapes of the components, the base materials as well as those that possibly will
be fitted, may be foreseen in different ways.
1) Articulated button for shirts, characterized by the fact that a head (1) is foreseen
on a stem (2), in issue kept back by its annular (3) with outwards bending, in a
mouth-piece (4) of an emerging central part (5) of a laying part (6). The said free
articulation permits to tilt the head (1) and to change its distance form the tissue
thus facilitating the input into the eyelet and improve the garment putting on. The
button can be mechanically fitted on the tissue by means of a small ring (7) with
jaws (8) which penetrate into the tissue without damaging the fibres and, after having
been squeezed, block the whole within a hollow (9) formed by the outer part of the
layer (6).
2) Articulated button for shirts, as per claim 1, characterized by the fact that in
a version, a part to insert is foreseen with stem (10) and a higher containment part
(11) for a pastille (12), in a bound condition, of different kind and generally in
valued material.
3) Articulated button for shirts, as per claim 1, characterized by the fact that in
a version,a part is foreseen to insert with stem (13) and with a higher part (14)
which penetrates into a cavity (15) of body (l6), of different kind and in particular
in valued material, to operate as its binding support.
4) Articulated button for shirts, as per claim 1, characterized by the fact that a
part of single-body head has been foreseen, its carrying out is possible with different
shapes and sizes, as well as possible uses.
5) Articulated button for shirts, as per claim 1, characterized by the fact that the
embodiment of the articulation in the layer (6) grants the double advantage to perform
an encombrance reduction of the base button as well as an additional reduction of
the encumbrance with the shape reentering which, in employ phase, permits to improve
the piece putting on by letting the button head adhere on the tissue of the connected
border.
