IMPROVEMENT IN THIMBLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 188,110, dated March 6, 1877; application filed February 12, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WALLACE DURAND, of Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Thimbles, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a side view, and Fig. 2 a crosssection.
The object of my invention is to furnish a thimble that may be used equally on the end and on all sides, and thus stand much greater wear than other thimbles, and at the same time the shape will be an attraction to the eye over other thiinbles.
The thinnble is constructed with the band or base A made to fit the finger, and the part B, above the base, is made in the shape, or nearly the shape, of a ball. This part being round, and the indentations for receiving the needle over the whole surface, it will catch the needle at any point, and there will be no danger of the needle slipping, as it often does in the use of ordinary thimbles; and a much greater durability of the thiinble will be secured, for it will wear equally on the end and on all sides.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The thimble having the ball-shaped top or end B, attached to the base A, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
WALLACE DURAND. Witnesses:
HORACE HARRIS, GHAs. P. Ross.
