ABSTRACT:
A button comprises a button face member; a support plate having a center hole for supporting the face member; a hollow button shank having upper and lower open ends, a constricted neck at its upper portion and a shoulder extending downward from the constricted neck, the neck having a smaller diameter than the center hole, the shoulder having a larger diameter than the center hole; a bending guide member disposed within the shank and having a slanting surface at its bottom for bending and guiding; an engaging member having a center bore extending therethrough and disposed within the shank and under the bending guide member; and a fastening member having a piercing needle. The support plate is loosely fitted around the neck of the shank and retained thereon by an enlarged top portion formed at the upper end of the neck after the support plate has been loosely fitted around the neck. The button face member is fitted over the support plate to form a button head from the face member and the support plate, whereby the button head is pivotably turnably supported by the shank with the enlarged top portion of the shank positioned within the space defined by the face member and the support plate. The button main body is fastened to a fabric or like sheet-like material by the piercing needle of the fastening member.
