United States Patent O 3,349,451 PLASTIC GRIPPER BUTTON Minoru Maeno, Osaka, Japan, assgnor, by direct and mesne assignments, to Kanegarfuchi Boseki Kabushiki Kaisha, doing business as Kanegafuchi Spinning Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan Continuation of application Ser. No. 347,250, Feb. 25, 1964. This application Apr. 1, 1966, Ser. No. 549,082 Claims priority, application Japan, July 10, 1963, 38/52,112 6 Claims. (Cl. 24-208) The present invention relates to an improved gripper bottom of plastic construction of the type attached to a piece of cloth or other fabric such as an article of wearing apparel; and, the present -application is a continuation of my prior application Ser. No. 347,250, led Feb. 25, 1964, now abandoned. Gripper buttons of the present t-ype conventionally include a pair of gripper members engageable and disengageable with a snap action, each gripper member being assembled to a backing member, which will be referred to herein as a button member, with a layer of fabric sandwiched inbetween. In conventional practice, the gripper and button members have been constructed for manufacture from a plastic material in such a way that the process of assembly of a gripper member to a button member requires a permanent deformation of one member of the other by the application of heat, or pressure, or both. The tooling required for this assembly operation is relatively expensive and cumbersome, and in a practical sense limits the installation and replacement of gripper buttons to facilities equipped with this special tooling.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a gripper button of all plastic construction, for long life and freedom of discoloration of the fabric to which it is attached, in which .the gripper and button elements can be assembled to the fabric by simple application of pressure and" preferably with negligible deformation of either element. The object is to enable the assembly operation to be carried out by hand, or with a hand-operated portable implement such as a pliers.
A plastic gripper button constructed in accordance with lthe invention comprises a pair of inter-engageable gripper members and a pair of button members, two of these members each being formed with a central aperture and the other two members each being formed with a central projecting stem adapted to be engaged in one of the apertures, each stem having a main portion with a crosssectional area ysubstantially equal to the cross-sectional area of the central aperture it is to engage and terminating in a rounded end portion having an enlarged rim thereon. The inner side of the rim protrudes radially from the main portion of the stern at an angle substantially equal to a right angle, thereby forming a sharply stepped ange between the main and terminal portions of the stem. A recess is formed centrally in the rounded end portion of the stem and extends longitudinally inwardly of the terminal portion into the main portion of the stem to permit resilient deformation of the enlarged rim portion surrounding the recess. By the application of pressure each gripper member can be securely assembled to a button member lby forcing the stern through the aperture to produce overlapping engagement between the enlarged rim portion of the stem of one member with the edge of the central aperture in the other member.
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description of the representative embodiments disclosed in the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE l is a -sectional elevation of a pair of gripper and button members in assembled relation;
3,349,451 Patented Oct. 31, 1967 FIGURE 2 is a plan view of the inner side of a button member of FIG. l;
FIGURE 3 is -a plan view of the outer side of the male gripper member;
FIGURE 4 is a plan view of the inner side of the male gripper member;
FIGURE 5 is a plan view of the inner side of the female gripper member;
FIGURE `6 is a plan View of the outer side of the female gripper member;
FIGURE 7 is a sectional elevation of a modified form of male gripper element assembled to a button element;
FIGURE 8 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 7 showing a further modification of a complete gripper button assembly; and
`FIGURE 9 is a sectional View of a modified construction.
In FIGS. l6 a male gripper element A of plastic material consists of a disc-shaped member 1 provided with a central aperture 2, a ring projecting from the inner side of the member 1 and having an enlarged rim 4 formed on the end of the outer wall thereof. The opposite or outer side `of the member 1 has a projecting annular brim 5. A plastic female gripper element B is a disc-shaped member 6 provided with a central aperture 7, an annular portion 8 projecting from the inner side thereof with an inwardly projecting rim 9; and, an annular brim 10 is formed around the periphery of the outer side of the member 6. The outer -diameter of the rim 4 of the Imale gripper member almost corresponds to the inner diameter of the annular projection 18 of the female member for inter-engagement of the male and female members as shown.
A pair of button elements C are each provided with a centrally projecting stern 11 terminating in a rounded end portion 13 having an enlarged rim thereon. The portion of the stem 11 inwardly of the rounded end portion 13 will be referred to yas the main portion of the stern and has an outer diameter, or cross-sectional area, substantially equal to the diameter or area of the central apertures 2 and 7 in the male and female gripper members respectively, while the inner side of the rim on the end portion 13 protrudes radially from the main portion of the stem at an angle substantially equal to a right angle, thereby forming a sharply stepped flange between the main and end portions of the stem. Each stern 1-1 is further provided with a recess 12 formed centrally in the rounded end portion 13 thereof and extending inwardly of the end portion into the main portion of the stern so that the recess is surrounded by and extends inwardly of the enlarged rim on the end portion.
The construction of the recessed stern 11 of the button element C enables it to be inserted within an aperture of -a gripper element and assembled to a piece of cloth or fabric D by a simple application of pressure to force the enlarged end portion 13 of the stem through the aperture into overlapping engagement between the enlarged rim and the edge of the central aperture. The recess 12 in the stem permits elastic deformation of the stern with negligible permanent deformation, and the operation can be performed by a hand tool.
In the construction of FIG. 7, a button element 31 is provided with a central aperture 32, and the gripper element 33 is provided with a stem 34 projecting oppositely from its annular gripping portion 35. The stern 34 is constructed in a manner similar to the stem 11 of the button element C enables it to be inserted within an aperture manner.
In FIG. 8, the male gripper member 41 is assembled to a button element in the manner previously described, but is provided with .a modified rounded gripping projection 42 engaging a complementary shaped recess in the gripper portion 45 of the female gripper element 43. The central portion 44 of the female gripper element, in which the stem receiving aperture is formed, is of tapered section, being thinner and `more resilient adjacent the edges of the aperture to facilitate insertion of the stem portion of the button element therein.
In the construction of FIG. 9 the button element C having `a projecting stem 10-1 is provided with a recess 102 which extends axially through the stem., but which is restricted adjacent the end portion of the stem. The stem is provided with an enlarged rim portion 103 as previously described. Assembly of the button element C to a gripper element is facilitated by a driving element E affixed to a hand operated tool (not shown) which is inserted into the recess 102 in the button element, and which, if driven clear through the recess, encounters the restricted portion adjacent the end of the stem to expand the rim portion 103 into greater overlapping engagement with the portion 104 of the gripper element around the aperture therein.
While preferred embodiments have been described above in detail, it will be understood that numerous modications might be resorted to without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the following claims.
