ABNER T SMITH, OF BILOXI, MISSISSIPPI.
EYEGLASS-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented J an. 30, 1912.
Application filed May 11, 1910. Serial No. 560,738.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AENER J. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Biloxi, in the county of Harrison and State of Mississippi, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Eyeglass-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to eyeglass holders and has for its object the provision of a comparatively simple and inexpensive device of this character, capable of being readily attached to a coat, shirt waist or other garment, and by means of which a pair of eyeglasses or spectacles may be conveniently suspended from a garment when not in use.
A further object is to provide an eyeglass holder having a htunp or projection formed thereon and which bears against the bill of a suspension hook and serves to prevent accidental displacement of the eyeglasses or other article suspended from said hook.
Further objects and advantages will appear in the following description, it being understood that various changes in form, proportions and minor details of construction may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claim.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an eyeglass holder constructed in accordance with my invention, showing the same in position on the lapel of a coat; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the holder detached; Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the same; Fig. 4 is a side view; Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 55 of Fig. 4.
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.
The improved eyeglass holder forming the subject matter of the present invention is preferably formed from a single length of wire or other suitable material having an intermediate portion thereof bent upon itself to produce a double strand suspension hook 5, the wire constituting one of the strands of the hook extending upwardly to produce a vertically disposed strand 7, and thence bent or coiled upon itself to produce an eye 8, the wire being thence extended laterally at the rear of the strand 7 to form a transverse arm 9 and thence bent or coiled to produce an eye 10, similar in construction to the eye 8 and preferably dis posed in transverse alinement therewith, as best shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. The
wire after the eye 10 is formed is extended downwardly to a point near the bend 6 of the hook to form a similar vertical strand 11, the wire being thence bent around the base of the hook to form a loop- 12, the wire forming the end of the loop 12 being extended rearwardly in contact with the lower end of the vertical strand l1 and the free end of said wire bent to produce a keeper 13.
The wire forming the mating strand of the hook 5 is extended upwardly at 16 through the loop 12 and between the vertical strands 7 and 11 to .a point above the eyes 8 and 10 where it is bent or twisted upon itself at 14 to produce a centrally disposed eye 15. The wire, after the eye 15 is formed is continued downwardly over the transverse bar 9 and thence bent inwardly in contact with said bar and the rear face of the intermediate strand 16 to form a clamping finger 17, the wire after the clamping finger 17 is formed being bent laterally at 18 and continued downwardly to form an attaching member 19 adapted to engage the keeper 13.
The wire forming the intermediate portion of the strand 16 is bent laterally to produce a hump 20 adapted to bear against the bill of the suspension hook and thus prevent accidental detachment of the eye glasses or other article suspended therefrom.
Attention is here called to the fact that the transverse bar 9 bears against the rear portions of the strands 7, 11 and 16, while the clamping finger 17 bears against the bar 9 and serves to hold the parts in assembled position. It will also be noted that the loop 12 encircles the vertical strand 7 and adjacent portion of the intermediate strand 16 so as to hold said strands in contact with each other.
The eyes 8 and 10, by contact with the surface of a garment assist in preventing lateral tilting movement of the holder thereon. The eyes 8 and 10 may also be used to assist in retaining the holder in position on a garment by stitching said eyes to the garment, if desired.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
An eye glass holder formed of wire having a portion thereof bent to produce a two strand suspension hook, one of the strands of the hook being extended upwardly to form a vertical strand and thence bent to produce an eye, the material being thence extended across the rear of the vertical strand to form a transverse bar and bent upon itself to produce a second eye, the material after the second eye is formed being continued downwardly and coiled around the base of the suspension hook to produce a loop terminating in a laterally extending keeper, the second strand of the suspension hook being extended upwardly through the loop and thence extended laterally to procontact with the transverse bar, the wire after the clamping finger is formed being continued downwardly to form an attaching member for engagement with the keeper.
In testimony whereof, I afiix my signa- H ture in presence of two witnesses.
