UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN M. RILEY, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.
FASTENING FOR DOG-COLLAR'S.
v SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 244,312, dated July 12, 1881.
Application filed February 18, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN M. RILEY, of Newark, in the coun ty of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fastenings for Dog- Collars; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the'same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a front View of collar with my improvements. Fig. 2 is a. perspective repre- 1g sentation of the overlapping plates; and Fig.
3 is an under-side view of plate-holding pivoted blocks.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved fastening or clasp for dog-collars, so constructed as to be applicable to collars of either leather or metal, and of such a character that it may be used without a padlock or with one, serving in the former case to hold the ends of the collar against accidental separation, and in the latter case to lock the collar, and to prevent its surreptitious removal.
My invention consists in the novel construction ofparts, as hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, A designates a collar of any suitable description, the ends of which terminate in the curved plates B B respectively, the one designed to overlap the other. The outer or overlapping plate, B, is formed with the longitudinal slots b b b, forthepurpose to be-described. The inner plate, B, is provided with two L-shaped plates or blocks, 0 c, pivoted thereto, as shown, and forming separable parts of a staple orloop, which, when closed, constitutes the clasp-fastening. Each of the plates or blocks 0 c has a hole in it, as shown at d.
To couple the two ends of the collar, the blocks 0 c are turned so that their horizontal extensions 6 point in oppositedirections. The plate B is then placed upon plate B, so that each block may pass through one of two adjacent slots, 11 b. The blocks are then turned so as to bring their extensions or hook parts together side by side, thus forming a staple, which embraces the metal of plateB between the two slots and prevents the two plates from separating. The holes in the blocks 0 0 now coincide, and if desired a padlock may be attached, the hasp thereof passing through the two holes. The inner curved plate of the collar has a stud, f, which enters the remaining slot of plate B and serves to prevent lateral movement.
By elongating the plates B B and making four or more slots in the outer plate the collar may be made adjustable.
As will be seen, the fasteningdescribed is of comparatively inexpensive construction, and does not encumber the collar or detract from its attractiveness. For ordinary purposes it dispenses with the necessity of a padlock, as there is no danger of the fastening becoming loose in consequence of rough usage to which it may be subjected by the animal wearing it.
Having described my invention, I claim- In a dog-collar, the combination, with the inner plate, B, and overlapping slotted plate B, of the pivoted L-shaped blocks 0 0, substantially as described and shown.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN M. RILEY.
