Description
H. W. STAMPS.
CLIP.
APPLICATION FILED JUNE 20. 1911.
1,029,829, Patented June 18, 1912.
y I I Attorneys TINTTE HENRY w. STAMPS, or ROME, GEORGIA.
CLIP.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, HENRY W.- STAMPS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rome, in the county of Floyd and State of Georgia, have invented a new and useful Clip, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clips for securing loose leaves of sheet music and the like to binders or covers.
One of the objects of the invention is to provide a simple form of clip which can be readily applied to the cover and to the sheets to be secured, said clip being so constructed'as to tightly bind upon the parts being held thereby and, at the same time, constitute a suflicient support whereby the sheets are prevented from pulling downwardly off of the clips or from pulling the clips out of position within the cover or binder.
Another object is to provide a clip of this character which will open automatically while being inserted into engagement with the sheets.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings :'Figure 1 is a front elevation of sheets of music secured to a cover or binder, parts being broken away. Fig. 2 is an enlarged transverse section through a portion of the binder and the parts connected thereto, said binder being shown closed. Fig. 3 is a central longitudinal section through the parts shown in Fig. 1, said figure being on an enlarged scale. Fig. 4 is a section similar to Fig. 3 but showing the binder open.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference 1 designates the cover of the binder, said cover including an intermediate flexible back 2. An attaching strip 3 of coarse fabric or other heavy flexible material is secured to the cover 1 and extends across the flexible back, as clearly indicated Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed June 20, 1911.
Patented June 18,- 1912. Serial No. 634,377.
in Figs. 2 and 4. The loose sheets to be fastened to the cover have been indicated at 4 and the clips employed for securing these leaves to the cover constitute the present invention. Each of these clips consists of an elongated stem 5 of spring metal and having a point 6 at one end while its other end is formed with an extension 7 projecting therefrom at an obtuse angle and terminating in a clamping finger 8. This finger converges toward the stem 5 and contacts therewith at a point removed from the pointed end 6, there being an eye 9 at the free end of the finger whereby said finger can be easily manipulated and is, at the same time, prevented from digging into the sheets engaged thereby.
When it is desired to fasten a sheet to the cover, said sheet is placed with its fold in contact with the attaching strip 3. The point 6 is then forced through the fold of the sheet 4 and into the strip 3 and thence has its end pressed downwardly between the strip 3 and the back 2 until the extension 7 comes into contact with the sheet 4. Arm 8 will thus assume a position within the fold of the sheet and the rounded end 9 thereof will ride along the sheet during the insertion of the stem 5 into the strip 3, and thus clamp the sheet tightly against the strip 8. As the extension 7 is inclined upwardly away from the sheet 4, it will be apparent that it acts as a supporting peg on which the sheet is hung andthere is therefore no danger of the sheet pulling downwardly off of the clip and onto the arm 8 as would be the case should the connection between the stem and the arm be rounded. Importance is attached to the fact that the pointed end of the stem 5 projects beyond the rounded end of the arm 8 and cantherefore be readily inserted into the sheet 4 and the strip 3 without the necessity of pulling it away from the arm 8. During the insertion of the stem into the sheet 4 and the strip 3, the materials into which it is being inserted, will press against the rounded end 9 of the arm 8 and thus cause said arm to spring away from the stem and permit the stem to enter the materials throughout its length.
Although this clip is preferably formed of spring metal it is to be understood that the same can be formed of any other suitable material.
While the clip is especially designed for holding loose sheets to a cover, it is to be understood that it can also be employed forand normally contacting at one end with the 10 attaching unbound books to the cover. The stem. clips can of course be made of various sizes In testimony that I claim the foregoing as to meet the requirement. my own I have hereto afliXed my signature What is claimed is in the presence of two Witnesses. A clip including a stem having a point at HENRY W. STAMPS. one end, an extension projecting at an 010- Witnesses: tuse angle from the other end of the stem, JOSEPH R. EDUARDs, and an arm projecting from the extension JOHN R. BARCLAY.
