METHOD OF SECURING AND ALIGNING A NECKTIE ON A SHIRT

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of securing and aligning a necktie on a shirt. The method includes an object with flexible material loops protruding from two sides of the object. The object is put through a necktie loop located on the rear portion of a necktie and remains in this position while the flexible material loops are then attached to the two closest buttons on a shirt. This method secures a necktie to a shirt, whereby ensuring that a necktie remains vertically aligned over the buttons on a shirt, while at the same time the invention remains hidden from view while in use.

Claims

1. A method of securing and aligning a necktie on a shirt, comprising: an object; the object having a length and a width, the length being longer than the width; the object having a front and a back; the object having a perforation within its center, extending the entire length of the object, connecting both widths of the object at their centers; the perforation being fully enclosed within the object, except for at both widths of the object, where the perforation is open; the perforation being evenly divided by a solid wall within an exact center of the perforation, thereby creating two distinct perforations, each connecting both widths of the object; a flexible material; the flexible material being inserted through one of the distinct perforations and extending beyond the length of the object; a separate flexible material being inserted through the other one of the distinct perforations and extending beyond the length of the object; ends of the flexible material and the separate flexible material being permanently connected to each other adjacent respective ones of the widths of the object; the permanently connected flexible material and the separate flexible material creates distinct loops protruding from the distinct perforations at each width of the object; the loops protruding from the distinct perforations at each width of the object being of sufficient length to securely fasten to two shirt buttons, of which are the nearest two shirt buttons to where a necktie loop, located on a reverse side of a wide end taper of the necktie, naturally rests upon the shirt after a person completely assembles the necktie using a standard tying method; the object, after being placed through the necktie loop and remaining in-between the necktie loop and the necktie, is connected to the two nearest shirt buttons using the loops, thereby securing and aligning the necktie to the shirt without the object being readily visible.

2. A method of securing and aligning a necktie on a shirt, comprising: an object; the object having a length and a width, the length being longer than the width; the object having a front and a back; the object having a perforation within its center, extending the entire length of the object, connecting both widths of the object at their centers; the perforation being fully enclosed within the object, except for at both widths of the object, where the perforation is open; the perforation being evenly divided by a solid wall within an exact center of the perforation, thereby creating two distinct perforations, each connecting both widths of the object; a flexible material; the flexible material being inserted through both distinct perforations at one of the widths of the object and extending beyond the length of the object; ends of the flexible material protruding from the opposite width of the object from where inserted being permanently connected to each other with a fastener; the fastener being hidden within a perforation of the object; the permanently connected flexible material creates distinct loops protruding from the distinct perforations at each width of the object; the loops protruding from the distinct perforations at each width of the object being of sufficient length to securely fasten to two shirt buttons, of which are the nearest two shirt buttons to where a necktie loop, located on a reverse side of a wide end taper of the necktie, naturally rests upon the shirt after a person completely assembles the necktie using a standard tying method; the object, after being placed through the necktie loop and remaining in-between the necktie loop and the necktie, is connected to the two nearest shirt buttons using the loops, thereby securing and aligning the necktie to the shirt without the object being readily visible.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0008] FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of how the method as a whole will function.

[0009] FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of the object with the flexible material loops protruding from it.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of the invention 10 and illustrates how the invention 10 interacts with a necktie 17, 18 and 19 when the method is in use. As seen in FIG. 2, the object 16 is depicted in a rectangular shape with rounded edges, but is generally designed in many different shapes and sizes. Such variations in shapes and sizes have no influence or impact on the purpose or result of the method. Instead, such variations in shapes and sizes are only ornamental designs.

[0011] The object's perforations 11 and 12 are equally divided by a wall 13. As seen in FIG. 2, the protruding flexible material 14 and 15 creates loops at both ends of the object along its widths.

[0012] As seen in FIG. 1, the invention 10 sits in a vertical manner along the length of a shirt. The invention 10 is placed through the necktie loop 17, which has the end result of the object resting between the necktie loop 17 and the narrow end taper of the necktie 18.

[0013] The flexible material loops 14 and 15 seen in FIG. 2 securely fasten around the two closest shirt buttons 20 and 21 seen in FIG. 1. As seen in FIG. 1, the closest loop created by the flexible material to a person's head is connected to the upper shirt button 21. Next, the closest loop created by the flexible material to a person's feet is connected to the lower shirt button 20.

[0014] This method ensures that the necktie is secure and aligned. Further, this method allows for the wide end taper of the necktie 19 to display its true character.
