ABSTRACT:
A press-button device is provided that includes an upper part and lower part for fastening together fabric and other materials. The upper part has a hollow main part that includes a disc and a hollow central sleeve. Arranged within the main part are a compressible gripping connector within an outer gripping sleeve. A spring is positioned between the outer gripping sleeve and hollow central sleeve. A rivet secures the tops of the outer gripping sleeve and gripping connector to a button. A seal is provided between the button and the main part that protects the inside of the main part and permits axial movement of the button. The upper part also includes a plate positioned in the main part that carries a rigid annular sleeve with a conical-shaped interior surface that abuts against the end of the gripping connector. A washer secures the upper part to fabric or other material. The lower part includes a spherical undercut head for engaging the upper part gripping connector. The head is connected to a casing that is fastened to an outer disk. A fastening washer secures the lower part to the fabric or other material.
