TOOL HOLDER OR CLIP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 3, 1911.
Application filed July 28, 1910. Serial No. 574,396.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD HAMERLY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sherwood, in the county of Ward and State of North Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tool Holders or Clips, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object a simple, inexpensive and eflicient clip which will be found useful by machinists, carpenters and other artisans generally, for holding in their belt or pocket the pliers or other tools which they desire to have at hand, and the invention consists in certain constructions and arrangements of the parts that I shall hereinafter fully describe and claim.
For a full understanding of the invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved clip or tool holder; Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view thereof; and, Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the device.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
My improved clip may be constructed of wire of suitable strength and resiliency, and consists of two main bars 1 and 2 extending parallel to each other and formed with rightangularly disposed ends 3, that are re turned at their extremities inwardly toward each other and toward the main bars 1 and 2, as at 4, being connected, preferably integrally, at their inner ends so as to produce two substantially triangular clips designed to have inserted in them the upper edge of a belt or pocket so as to secure the device to the garment.
Preferably, the device is made of a single piece of wire bent into the required shape, the ends of the wire meeting to form one of the main bars and such ends being covered so as to prevent distortion and separation, by means of a metallic sleeve or guard tube 5, as clearly illustrated in the drawing. It will be noted that the clip portions 4 are directed inwardly or inclined toward each other.
In the practical use of the device, the upper edge of a belt or pocket is received between the members of the two triangular clips before described, so as to secure the device to the pocket or belt and the pliers or other tool is inserted between the bar 2 and the sleeve 5 and likewise between those sides of the clip portions 4 which are located upon the same side of the garment as the implement and thus effectually prevent the accidental detachment and loss of the tool. It will be noted that one member only of each clip portion 4 is effective to hold the tool from lateral displacement as the material of the garment covers the other members, but the resistance offered by the clip portions is ample to prevent lateral movement of the tool as will be obvious.
It is obvious that the device may be very cheaply manufactured and sold at a relatively low cost as it is composed of only two parts, each of which may be easily shaped up and connected together.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
As a new article of manufacture, a tool holder formed from a single piece of wire bent to shape and comprising two bars spaced apart and having depending portions at their ends and with clip portions directed inwardly toward each other from the depending portions, said bars being adapted to support the tool from outward movement and said clip portions adapted to support a tool from lateral movement and to yieldably retain the device in position upon a garment.
In testimony whereof, I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
