ARTHUR W. BAKER, WILLIAM L. I-IINSON, AND HOMEE W. PHILLIPS, OF GEORGETOWN, SOUTH CAROLINA.
CRATE-HOOK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 16, 1912.
To all whom it may concem:
Be it known that we, ARTHUR XV. BAKER, lVILLIAM L. HINsoN, and HOMER W. PHIL- Lrrs, citizens of the United States, residing at Georgetown, in the county of Georgetown and State of South Carolina, have intops of crates in position which will have many advantages over the ordinary form which consists of a band of metal having pointed ends adapted to be driven in the top and in the sides of 'the crate. YVith this type of device a hammer has to be used to drive the pointed ends and frequently they bend in such a manner that is takes considerable time to head the crate.
It is the object of this invention to avoid these difficulties and broadly speaking consists in a device which may be readily applied with the hand so as to secure the top in position upon the crate.
Further objects of the invention will appear as the following specific description is read in connection with the accompanying drawing, which forms a part of this invention, and in which z Figure 1 is a perspective view of the hook. Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view through the top of the crate showing one of the hooks appled.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, 1 and 2 represent the inner and outer top hoops of a crate and 3 the side thereof. The top is illustrated at 4.
The top fastening device consists essentially in a strip of metal having its end formed into a short lateral flange 5 and its opposite end formed into a wide top engaging flange 6, the intermediate portion of the strip being bent laterally, as shown at 7 to form shoulders 8 and 9 adapted to receive the top and the upper edge of the outer hoop 2.
The fastening device is slightly resilient throughout its length so as to permit slight bending and, in application, it is passed between the hoops 1 and 2, these hoops giving sufliciently to pernit the flange 5 to enter between the same. After the fiange 5 has passed beneath the lower edge of the outer hoop, the hoops will be brought together by their inherent resilienoy and the flange 5 will be engaged beneath the outer hoop and the shoulder 9 engaged upon the upper surface of said hoop. By placing the top under the hooks upon one side of the crate and springing the hooks upon the opposite side of the crate, the top may be placed against the shoulder 8. hen the hooks are released they will be carried into engagement with the top; as shown in Fig. 2, the resilienoy of the outer hoop assist-ing in its action. V
Having thus described the invention, what we claim as new is z A crate hook comprising a single piece of resilient metal, one end of said hook being bent to provide a short lateral flange and its opposite end bent in an opposite direction to provide an elongated fla'nge, the intermediate portion of said hook being bent laterally to provide shoulders adapted to receive the top and upper edge of the outer hoop of a crate.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
