Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. '7, 1911.
Application filed October 19, 1910. Serial No. 587,94
To (177 whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES H. Bonnnx. a citizen of the United States. residing at Hartford, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Umbrella Attaehments, of which the fOllUWlDg is a specitication.
This invention relates to a device which is adapted to be attached to the rod of an umbrella. near the inner end of the handle, or t the tip near the end of a rib, for the purp se of binding and temporarily holding close againstthe rod or handle, the tips of the umbrella. ribs.
The object of the invention is to provide a very simple, cheap. inconspicuous and easily operated device of this nature which can be readily attached to the rod of any of the common types of umbrellas, or to av rib-tip of such umbrellas, and can be quickly used to bind the tips together. when the umbrella to be carried closed. and instantly released to free. them, so that the umbrella can be opened.
The in vention resides in an article for this purpose which has a clip that is designed t i be sprung upon or fastened to an umbrella rod or rib-tip. The cli has an arm and at tached at one end to his arm is a flexible binder, that may be formed of a silk or other cord. or a chain of links or balls. The fr e end of the binder is adapted to be wound a round the rib-tips and engaged with the arm for binding and temporarily holding the rib-tips close together.
Figure l of the accompanying drawings shows on an enlarged scale, a plan of an article which embodies the invention. Fig. 2 shows a side view of the same.
The circular clip 1 is desirably stamped or otherwise cut from thin sheet metal, as steel. brass or bronze. having the requisite characteristics to cause it. when bent to the proper shape. to clasp and hold itself in place on the rod of an umbrella. adjacent to the inner end of the handle. or on the tip of aribthe size of the clip. of course. depending upon the part to which it is to be attached. i Extending from one end of the clip is an arm This arm may be doubled upon itselt. to torm two thicknesses, as shown in Fig. l.
in one term of the invention a finger 3 is made at the outer end of the arm by bending up in the necessary manner a strip of the metal from which the clip and' arm are formed. This provides a. slot into which the free end of the binder is passed and held between the end of the arm and the finger.
The binder may consist of a silk or other braided cord that has one end permanently attached to the arm. Such a binder is desirably provided with one or more stops which maybe knots. balls, or other ornaments or fasteners 6, as shown in Fig. 1. The fixed end of the cord may be knotted between the two thicknesses of the arm.
The clip is easily sprung upon and caused to clasp the steel rod of an umbrella near the inner end of the handle. or upon the tip of a rib. If the arm is provided with a projecting finger. as is shown in Figs. 1 and 2, when it is desired tohold the tips of the ribs close to the rod. the binder is wound tightly around the tips and passed into the slot between the finger and the end of the arm. as illustrated by dotted lines in Fig. 1. The finger may be so bent as to grip the binder sutliciently tight to prevent its slipping. or a knot or all may be arranged on the binder in position to engage the arm and finger and prevent the binder from slipping and loosening the ribs.
This device is very simple to make and is readily attached to any ordinary form of umbrella. It is small, inconspicuous, and adjustable so it can be used with umbrellas of any size. It can be quickly made to bind the tips of the umbrella ribs and hold them closely againstthe rod in an attractive manner. obviating wrapping up the cover and binding it with the usual fastener. It can be quickly released to free the ribs, and may be so made that it is ornamental when dangling from an umbrella handle.
The invention claimed is:
An attachment tor temporarily binding umbrella. tips. comprising a spring clip shaped to clasp the supporting rod. said clip having at one end thereof a part bent outwardly and returned upon itself in spaced relation with the outwardly bent part to form double radial projection adapted to extend between the tips of the umbrella ribs, said returned portion having a cord aperture therein. a spring finger formed intogrally with the said projection and bent so wt in extc'nd pguaflel to and in :fmntpf the tween and convczflefl by the Walls of the proirmbled and of said projufiinm, whireby a 1 jection.
