l sfrfrss PATENT orion.
WILLIAM `1,/renoNAL1'.\,lor cUnwnNsvILLn, PENNSYLVANIA;
CARPET-FASTENER.
To all whom 'it may concern.
`Be it known that I, WILLIAM MCDONALD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Curwensville, in the county ot' Gleareld and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Carpet- Fasteners, of which the following is a speci- .fication An object ot the invention is to provide a carpet fastener, particularly adaptable for stair carpets and the like to removably position the carpet on the stair without the use of tacks or similar holding members passed through the carpet.
For the purpose mentioned, use is made of a rod adapted :tor engagement with the lcarpet to extend transversely thereto, sockets for removable engagement with the ends of the rod, the said sockets being positioned adjacent the ends of 'the carpet and means for adjustably connecting kthe sockets to the stair to retain the rod in engagement with the carpet.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings constituting a part ot'. this specification, in which similar characters of reference denote corresponding parts in all the views, and in whichi Figure 1 is a fragmentary perspective view of the stair provided with acarpet and showing my device attached thereto, one .of the sockets being shown removed from the rod.` Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view taken substantially on the line 2--2 in F ig. 1.
Referring more particularly to the views, I provide a rod 10 adapted for engagement with a carpet 11 positioned on a stair 12, the
\ said rod being adapted to engage the carpet at the inner end of one of the steps 13 of the stair and extending transversely to the carpet as shown in Fig. 1, the said rod being preferably of an angular shape and havingv a rounded edge 111. Sockets 15 provided with heads 16 having apertures `17 therein are adapted for slidable engagement with t-he ends o1' the rods 10 and the said sockets are provided with apertures 18 having their inner ends elongated and their outer ends flared to receive therethrough screw eyes 19.
In the use of my device the rod is first positioned on the carpet 13 as shown in Fig. 1, one of the sockets 15, is then slidably engaged with the rod so that an end of the rod will extend in the aperture 17 of the said socket and the mentioned socket is then secured to the stair 12 by screwing the then be easily removed from the stair.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented July 16, 1912, IAppncation fue@ May 1?, 1911. serial No. 627,755.
To remove the carpet from the stair one of the screw eyes in one of the sockets 15 is operated so that the head of the screw eye will be positioned in alinement with the longitudinal axis of the socket and the socket can then be slid outwardly and disengaged from an end of the rod 10. Now by slightly i pulling the free end of the rod 10 to one side, the said rod can be disengaged from the other socket 15 and the carpet 11 can It `will be seen that the rod 10 is removed from the sockets 15 without removing the sockets from the stair 12 and it will be further seen that with the provision of the sockets and rod as described, the carpet need not be secured to the stair by means of tacks or nails which tend to ruin the carpet and are hard to remove from the carpet. v
Although I have shown a plurality of similar sockets connected to the ends of the rod 10 it will be understood that onlyone of these sockets need be provided Jfor slidable engagement with the rod 10 and the other socket can be firmly and securely connected to the stair. It will be further understood that although for the purpose of describing my device I have shown a particular construction thereof, the scope of the invention is deined in the appended claim.
Having thus fully described the invention,
` what I claim as new, is
In a carpet fastener, the combination with a bar adapted to holda carpet in a stair corner, ofv vsockets for removable engagement with the ends of said rod and slidable relative thereto, said sockets having a reducedhold said sockets snugly against the ends of said bar, said screws being adapted to be turned so as the heads thereof Will aline with the said slots to permit for adjustment of said sockets, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I aliiX my 'signature in presence of two Witnesses.
WILLIAM MGDONALD. Witnesses ROBERT MCCLURE, RAYMOND SIPES.
