I V/ IVE 7/ 4 @111 By COLUMBIA PLAHOORAPN C0. WASHINGTON. D- C- UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE MORRIS BOSENTHAL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
HAT-PIN-POINT PROTECTOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed September 16, 1911.
Patented July 2, 1912.
Serial No. 649,732.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MORRIS ROSENTHAL, a subject of the Czar of Russia, and resident of the city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hat-Pin-Point Protectors, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in hat pin point protectors, and has for its object the provision of novel means for shielding the pointed end of a hat pin so as to obviate danger of such pointed end causing injury or damage to objects or persons with which it may come in contact.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device for the above purpose extremely simple in its construction, comparatively inexpensive to manufacture, and which necessitates no alteration in the pin structure, but may be used with any ordinary hatpin.
The invention will be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed, and in such description, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing illustrating an embodiment of the invention, as the same has been practised by me, and in which drawings like numerals of reference will be employed to indicate like parts throughout the several views, in which:
Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a hat pin provided with my improved protector, the latter being shown in section, and, Fig. 2 is an elevation of the hat pin with the protector applied thereto.
The pin 5 is of the ordinary form. The protector comprises a sleeve 6 preferably tapering from its outer to its inner end, and which sleeve may be, as shown, provided at the outer end with an ornamental setting. The sleeve is closed at its outer end, but is provided with a bore extending longitudinally of the sleeve from the inner end to a point in close proximity to the closed outer end. This bore 7 extends from the outer end of the sleeve inwardly for some distance of a substantially uniform diameter, the inner portion of the bore however tapering gradually toward the outer end of the protector to substantially a point. At the polnt 8 where the bore begins to taper, there is arranged a coil spring gripping member 9, which in practice has been formed from a piece of thin steel wire which is given two or more coils in order to prO' vide a sufiicient grip on the pin 5 when the latter is inserted through the gripping element, The tapering of the bore forms a shoulder 10 interiorly of the sleeve 6 against which the forward convolution of the coil will abut, which will limit the thrust of the gripping coil toward the closed end of the sleeve (5, the gripping coil being of a diameter which will admit the pointed end of the pin, but which will grip the pin either at the base of the pointed end thereof or close to such base.
The bore 7 at the inner end of the protector or sleeve, as stated, is of a substantially uniform diameter, and this diameter is such as will readily receive the gripping coil therein. After the coil has been inserted in the sleeve or protector, then the inner end of the latter is squeezed or swaged as at 11 so as to reduce the size of the bore at the entrance end below the diameter of the gripping coil, thus preventing the latter being drawn out of the bore as the pin 5 is withdrawn from the sleeve or protector. The gripping coil however, may move outwardly along with the pin, until it strikes the inturned portion 11, when it will relax to such an extent that it will be readily stripped from the pin as the latter is further withdrawn. By reason of the taper in the bore, the tapering coiled gripping member as it is forced into the taper of the bore is compressed around the pin and the latter is therefore held not only by the frictional contact of the coil with the pin but by the frictional contact of the coil with the tapering walls of the bore, securely preventing accidental loss of the protector. By providing the tapering coil and the tapering bore to receive the same, the coil is compressed throughout its length firmly on to the pin when the latter is inserted. Since however, the coil may move inwardly upon a pull on the pin, the same relaxes as it moves into the larger diameter of the bore, releasing its frictional engagement with the pin, and allowing the latter to be readily withdrawn.
' The simplicity of the device will be readily apparent, and the fact that it may be used on ordinary hat pins without necessitating any alteration of such pins renders it applicable to any pin having a pointed end which it is desired to shield.
The embodiment of theinvention as herein shown and described is of that form which has been generally practised by me, though I do not Wish to limit myself to the precise construction shown, since in details the same may be varied without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed. Having fully described my invention, what I claim is:
In a hat pin point protector, a sleeve, the bore of which extends inwardly of the sleeve for some distance of a uniform diameter pin, and a tapering gripping coil of spring wire mounted in the bore of the sleeve to receive a pin inserted in the sleeve said coil being free to have limited longitudinal movement in the sleeve and held against outward displacement of the sleeve by the reduced inner end thereof and restricted in its inner travel and compressed around the pin by the tapering portion of said sleeve bore. V
Signed at the city of New York in the county of New York and State of New York this 11th day of September A. D. 1911.
MORRIS ROSENTHAL.
