Abstract
A knot tying device for realizing a knot of a tie that has a narrower part and a wider part includes a ring defining an internal cavity for passage of the narrower part and an external surface of support for the wider part; a ferromagnetic body, integral to the ring; and a magnet suitable for resting on the wider part so as to overlap the ferromagnetic body, constraining itself to the ferromagnetic body and blocking the wider part to the ring.
Claims9
A knot tying device (1), adapted to make a knot (10a) of a tie (10) comprising a narrower part (11) and a wider part (12), said knot tying device (1) comprising:
- a ring (2) defining an internal cavity (2a) for passage for the narrower part (12) and having an external surface (2b) of support for said wider part (11);
- at least one ferromagnetic body (3), integral to said ring (2);
- and
- at least one magnet (4) adapted for resting on said wider part (11) so as to substantially overlap the ferromagnetic body (3), said at least one magnet constraining itself to said at least one ferromagnetic body (3) and engaging said wider part (12) to said ring (2).
A method of making a knot (10a) of a tie (10) using a knot tying device (1), said tie having comprising a narrower part (11) and a wider part (12), the method comprising:
- a providing step, in which knot tying device is provided that comprises,
- a ring (2) defining an internal cavity (2a) for passage for said narrower part (12) and having an external surface (2b) of support for said wider part (11);
- at least one ferromagnetic body (3), integral to said ring (2);
- and
- at least one magnet (4) adapted for resting on said wider part (11) so as to substantially overlap the ferromagnetic body (3), said at least one magnet constraining itself to said at least one ferromagnetic body (3) and engages said wider part (12) to said ring (2);
- positioning step (120), in which said narrower part (12) is placed in said internal cavity (2a);
- a covering step (130), in which said wider part (11) rests on said external surface (2b);
- and
- a blocking step (140), in which said magnet (4) rests on said wider part (11) so as to substantially overlap said ferromagnetic body (3), becoming constrained to said ferromagnetic body (3) and engaging said wider part (11) to said ring (2).
