The invention offers a clip that makes it possible to use any necktie as-is by the enabling the simple tying of a necktie knot with a single step. The invention is a roll-knot necktie clip that is formed from a holding frame (1) having a claw-shaped catch section (2a) and an inside holding frame (4a) in the shape of a ring that is joined to the base (5) by a connector plate (8). The second working example of the invention is an improved version made from the first working example and is formed from the holding frame (1) and the inside holding frame (4a). The second working example makes it possible to form a knot in nearly a single step without the use of a screw or other device by folding the inside of the essential part (14) and holding this in the inside holding frame, then inserting the outside (11a) and inside (11b) of the necktie (11b) that are overlapped in a U-shape into the holding frame. Because the invention clip makes it possible to use any necktie without changing the tie, the invention has the advantage of allowing users to select from nearly unlimited types of neckties without having to sacrifice individuality.
A roll-knot necktie clip that is characterized as being formed by the opposition between an holding frame (1) consisting of a slender, short metal plate bent in a U-shape to make a U-shaped body (5) and a catch section (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) made by elongating both tips of the U-shaped body and bending them respectively at right angles towards the inside to form bent, claw-shaped parts (2a) as a catch section, and a stopper (3a) made from an elastic material formed in the shape of a spindle that is slightly indented in the center (6a).
An holding frame used for a roll-knot necktie clip as shown on the Request Part 1, which is characterized by having a catch section that is formed by elongating both tips of the U-shaped body (5) and bending them respectively at right angles toward the inside to form a loop (2b).
An holding frame as shown on the Request Part 2, which is characterized as having a catch section made by attaching spherical shapes (2c) made from friction material to both tips of the U-shaped body (5).
An holding frame as shown on the Request Part 2, which is characterized as having a catch section made by attaching caps made from friction material to both tips of the U-shaped body (5).
A stopper for use with a roll-knot necktie clip that is characterized by a spindle made from a long slender metal plate that is indented in the center (6b) as seen in the side view.
A roll-knot necktie clip that is characterized as having a holding frame (1) and an inside holding frame (4a) in the shape of a ring that is slightly open at both tips, which together form a continuous structure joined by a short plate-shaped connector plate (8), or in other words the holding frame (1) and an inside holding frame (4a, 4c, 4b, 4d).
A roll-knot necktie clip as shown on the Request Part 6, which is characterized by elongating the bottom portion of the U-shaped body (5) and bending it into a direct fork to form the inside holding frame (4c).
A roll-knot necktie clip as shown in the Request form Part 6, which is characterized by elongating the bottom portion of the U-shaped body (5) and bending it into a direct spiral (4b) to form the inside holding frame (4c).
