  • Publication number: 20140101897
    Abstract: A button cover assembly provides users with a decorative button cover. The cover assembly includes a disk and a cover construction. The disk is bonded to the cover construction, which cover construction is formed from an elastic material comprising a bonding portion and an aperture-defining portion. The bonding portion includes a series of button-engaging nubs, and the aperture-defining portion includes a non-circular geometric aperture having a relaxed aperture configuration lesser in magnitude than the diameter of a target button. The aperture-defining portion is elastically stressable for altering the relaxed aperture configuration to an actuated aperture configuration for receiving the button. After the assembly is donned, the aperture-defining portion retains the button cover assembly adorned upon the received or enveloped button.

  • Publication number: 20100236028
    Abstract: A cover assembly and a supporting method of manufacture therefor provide users with a button cover. The cover assembly comprises a disk and a cover construction. The disk has an inner disk surface comprising an uneven disk landscape having peaks and valleys strewn thereacross. The cover construction is formed from an elastic material comprising a bonding portion and an annulus. The bonding portion has a cover landscape complementary to the disk landscape as the bonding interface is formed by filling the disk landscape with the polymeric material while in liquid form. The annulus comprises an aperture having a relaxed diameter greater in magnitude than the diameter of a target button. The annulus is elastically stressable for increasing the relaxed aperture diameter to a stressed aperture configuration for receiving the button. After the assembly is donned, the annulus retains the button cover assembly adorned upon the received or enveloped button.
