Patent Application
20170347761
The present invention relates to a fastening plate for fastening a badge, and more particularly, to a fastening plate for fastening a badge that securely fastens the badge to a garment and prevents the badge put on the garment from rotating by causing the badge to be stuck on the garment by projections such that the badge and the garment are securely supported.
In general, there are badges that are put on clothing for the purpose of representing company logos or specific occupations such as lawmakers, lawyers or prosecutors or promoting associations.
Such a badge carries, on the surface thereof, a logo, a shape or a phrase informing people of a company, association or occupation, and these badges are usually fastened to clothes using fasteners.
Conventionally, in order to fasten a badge to a garment, a pin provided to the badge is first inserted into the front side of the garment so that the pin is exposed to the rear side of the garment, and then the fastener is connected to the badge pin exposed on the rear side to fix the badge to the garment.
However, in the case of a conventional fastener for fastening and fixing a badge to clothing, the fastener is simply brought into close contact with the back surface of the clothes, and accordingly close contact between the back surface of the clothes and the fastener is not ensured.
Further, as close contact between the back surface of the clothes and the fastener is not ensured, the badge put on the front of the garment often rotates, which is a problem. In severe cases, the badge may be separated from the clothes.
A conventional badge is disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-1426808, which includes a base, a handle rotatable about a shaft at the center of the base, a rotary table disposed on the front surface of the handle and coupled to the shaft at the center of the base to be rotated by rotation of the handle, a base projecting pin provided on the front surface of the rotary table and projecting from the base, a plurality of opening/closing blades coupled to an opening/closing blade fixing protrusion protruding from the rotary table, and a cover covered and coupled with the base, the rotating plate, and the front surface of the plurality of opening and closing blades and having a through hole formed at the center thereof, wherein a first image pattern expression part formed on the opening/closing blades and a second image pattern expression part expressed on the front surface of the rotary table produce an image that can be changed by opening and closing of the opening and closing blades engaged with rotation of the handle.
As another example, Utility Model Application Publication No. 20-1998-064072 discloses a badge fixing structure, in which a badge for inserting and fixing a leg into a fixing hole of a cabinet for imparting marketability includes a support member formed on the side of the fixing hole corresponding to the rear surface of the cabinet to support the bending elastic force of the leg.
These prior art techniques are designed to prevent movement of the badge by causing various images of the badge to be presented or the leg fixing part for fixing the badge to have elasticity by bending stress.
However, in the prior art, since the badge is fastened to the clothes only by surface contact with the clothes during the process of fastening and fixing the badge to the clothes, the badge is not firmly fastened to the clothes and is not fixedly supported. Therefore, problems such as movement of the badge still need to be addressed.
Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is one object of the present invention to provide a fastening plate for a badge fastener that securely fastens the badge to a garment and prevents the badge put on the garment from rotating or moving with respect to the garment by causing the badge to be affixed to the garment by projections with the fastener in close contact with the back surface of the garment such that secure fastening between the garment and the fastener is ensured and the badge is securely fastened to and supported by the garment.
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, provided is a fastening plate for fastening a badge, including: a fastener for fixing a badge to a garment by fixing a fixing portion of the badge arranged through the garment; and a fastening plate fixed to the fastener through close contact, wherein the fastening plate includes: a close contact portion closely contacting a back surface of a garment with the badge put on a front surface of the garment and having a fixing hole through which the fixing portion penetrating the garment from the front surface to the back surface is arranged, the close contact portion including an inner circumferential portion provided with a plurality of cut-out holes formed therethrough; and a plurality of wedges bent upward of the plurality of cut-out holes, erected with respect to the close contact portion and stuck in the garment closely contacting the close contact portion.
Further, each of the wedges is formed in a triangular shape having a sharp center, and has a first toothed portion provided at an edge thereof.
Further, each of the wedges includes: a first vertical surface perpendicularly erected with respect to the close contact portion of the fastening plate and having a rectangular shape; and a second toothed portion provided at an upper end of the first vertical surface.
Further, each of the wedges includes: a second vertical surface perpendicularly erected with respect to the close contact portion of the fastening plate and having an arc shape; and a third toothed portion provided at an upper end of the second vertical surface.
Further, the center of each of the wedges is bent obliquely in a transverse direction with respect to the close contact portion of the fastening plate.
Further, each of the wedges has a shape curved in an arc shape so as to be perpendicular to the close contact portion of the fastening plate.
As apparent from the fore-going, with the present invention, a badge to be attached to the front of a garment can be securely fixed to the garment. Further, by firmly supporting the badge on the garment with wedges of the fastener secured to the garment so that the badge does not wobble, rotate or move, robustness and supportability between the badge and the garment or between the fastener and the garment as well as robustness of the badge and fastener are greatly improved.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It is to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting in any way. Unless stated otherwise, all terms used herein, including technical or scientific terms, have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs.
