i curely fastened to the under side of the body tension 5b on the clamping bar and is se-` of the holder so tliat'it will automatically spi-'ing' back 'to operative position ,when they secured iii .position drawing the fasteners' snugly into place between the alin'ingbars 7. The staples are new in condition to'be at- A tached to the end of the belt 16.l This may be done in'any convenient- Wayas for instance'by squeezing them between the jaws of-avise, hammering them down -on an .anvil orA by means of 'any 'convenient press, the

`object of this invention being merely to hold the fasteners inperfect alineinent during the ele-nching operation.

This deviceis adapted to receivevarious sized fasteners as the alining bars used may be sprung 'outward to the requireddistance to admit the base of-dii`erent sizes of fasteners.' It. is the custom, however, to make the different sized 'fasteners' all of the same gage ot'vfv re so that they will all t snugly within tbe-transverse receiving slots 2 and be held. parallel thereby.. Obviously the alining bars may be secured rigidly if preferred and the device will be operative.

lVhat I claim is 4 1. A holder -for belt fasteners, comprising a body member having transverse ref ceiving slots, alinin'g members to engage the opposite sides 'of the diverging arms of the belt' fasteners, and a detachable bar mounted to engage the inner side of the middle bend of said fasteners.

2. A- holder for belt fasteners, comprising a' member lia-ving receiving'grooves, three separate bars arranged in parallel relation and extending within said grooves toen'gage each fastener 'at respective points spaced apart and means for retaining said bars in place.. l r

3. A holder for belt fasteners, comprising amiddle bar to engage the inner side of the fasteners and tivoother bars in parallel relation to the middle bar and spaced apart therefrom to oppositely engage the opposite sides of the fasteners at a distance from the middle bar, a grooved body member to space the fasteners apart and means for attaching the bars to-said body', memberl-'' 4. A holder for' belts-fasteners, comprising an elongated rectangularzzzbody member having transverse receivingislots arranged at' regular Jintervals inthe upper side, means lfor retaining fasteners within the slot-s, an( oppositely yieldable means oppositely en gaging the fasteners for alnimg the sa-nn in the slots.

5. A holder for belt fasteners, comprising an velongated rectangular body member hav ing transverse slots in its upper sideV ar .ranged at regular intervals to receive an( space apart `the fasteners and also having.:

,longitudinalsslot in the upper side intersect ing the transverse slots,y a' retaining bai adapted to- It Withinthej longitudinal slot mea-iis `forfho ding the retaining bar in tht slotand means for holding the fasteners ii alinement. l

6.. A holder for belt fasteners, comprising an elongated rectangular body member hav ing transverse receiving slots arranged ai regula-r intervals in its upper side, and als( having a longitudinal slotl in the said uppei side intersecting the transverse slots and o:

-less dep'tli,'.a` retaining bar' to tit Within tht longitudinal slots, said bar being provider'` with projecting end portions one ofsa-id enc portions having an inclined upper face, z

-tixed attachingclip at one end of thebodj having an lopening to receive one end projection'of the barga slidable attaching clit at the opposite end of the body providet withan openingto receive the inclined pro jection ofthe retaining bar and a thuml screw inserted through azslot in the slidablf clip to clamp the clip to the body.

7.- A- holder for belt fasteners, comprising an elongated rectangular body having transverse receiving slots in its upper surface means for retaining fasteners Within tht slots, an alining bar at each side of the bod) having upwardly extendingjportions adapt.I ed to enter the'transverse slots to engage tht fasteners and means for adjustably holding the alining bars in place. .n y

S.. A holder for belt fasteners, comprising an elongated. body l member having transverse receiving slots in its upper side,means for retaining fasteners within the slots, longitudinal recesses in the opposite sides oi the body membercommunicatin with thi transverse slots, alining bars in t e recesses having upward extensions projectingA int( the transverse slots to engage4 the diverging arms of the fasteners, and contractile spring:

Aattached at their respective ends tothe alinI receive one of the projections-on the retaining bar, a slidable attaching clip at the opposite end of the body provided with an open-- ing to receive the inclined projection on the retaining bar, a thumb screw inserted through a slot in the slidable clip to clampl the clip to the body, longitudinal recesses in the sides of the body communicating with the transverse slots, alining bars to fit Within the recesses having upward extensions to enter said transverse slots and engage the diverging arms of belt fasteners, springs ei;` tending through transverse openings in the body and attached atl their respective ends to the alining bars to hold the bars Within 1r;

'In testimony whereof I aftix my signature 20 in presence of tvvo Witnesses.
