Specification of Iletters latent.
Patented Sept. JW, 1912.
Application filed April 17, 1911. Serial No. 621,640.
ToaZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CYRI'L G. PARKS -f 7 Minneapolis, Hennepin county, Minnesota,
have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Package-Clasps, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a device for clasping papers for filing purposes, or packages of letters or other documents to prevent them from becoming separated or scattered, the clasp being readily applied and applicable to various sizes of packages, and easily tightened-on the pack- .free end of the tape for temporarlly securing it.
In the accompanying drawings forming. part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a package with my invention applied thereto, Fig. 2 is a detail view of the clip. separated from the tape, Fig. 3 is a similar view, showing the preferred means for attaching the tape to the clip.
In the drawing, 2 represents a package around which the tape is placed and 3 is a ciip, preferably of thin sheet metal, having laterally pro ecting arms 4 and 5 parallel, substantially, with one another and located on the same side of the clip with a space between them.- The arm 4 has a series of prongs 6 on one edge that are adapted to engage one end of the tape 7 and, passing through the tape, are bent-backwardly toward the arm to secure the tape to the clip. The arm 5 is preferably provided with similar prongs on each side, as shown in Fig. 2, the outer series of prongs engaging a tab 8 of tape or other suitable material and securing' it to the clip. The free end of the tape is passed around the package through the opening between thearms and the operator, grasping the free end of the tape with one hand and the tab 8 with the other hand, can
' easily draw or tighten the tape around the package until the desired degree of compression is obtained. The inner prongs on the arm 5 are then thrust through the tape, as
illustrated in Fig. 1, and the expansion of the papers in the packagewill tighten the tape sufiicient-ly to hold it against accidental displacement on the package and hold the papers securely bound together until such time as it is desired to open the package. At
that time the operator will grasp the tab.
with one hand and pulling on the free end of the tape with the other hand-may disengage the tape from the inner prongs of the arm 5 and release the clasp and free the papers. The arms4 and 5 are preferably in the same plane with the part 3 connecting them, and the cli Will lie flat on the package and allow it to e handled or filed without catching on other papers or on the sides of the pigeon-hole in which the package may be thrust. The clip lying fiaton the package will also allow one package to be placed upon another in compact form.
I do not wish to be confined to the precise form'of clip shown herein, as it ma be modified in various ways and still be within prongs of said other arm.
'2. A package clasp comprising a clip, U- shaped, substantially, in form, a tape having one end attached to one of the arms of said clip, a tab attached to the outer edge of said other arm, thefree end of said tape adapted to enter the space between-said arms and said other arm having means on its inner edge to engage the free end of said tape, substantially as described,
In witnesswhereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 7th day of April 1911.
