...CHARLES J. IIN'GrEEtSOLL,` 0F HOUSTON, TEXAS.
CLOTHES-PIN.
To all 107mm 7' 2 may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES J. INcEnscLn. citizen of the United Stat-es, residing at Houston, in the county of Harris and State of Texas, have invented certain new and use fullmprovements'fin Clothes-Pins, of which the following is a specification.
This invention comprehends certain new and useful improvements in that type of clothes pins which are so constructed as' to' structions, arrangements and combinations of the parts thatI shall hereinafter fully de? scribe and claim.
For a full understanding of the inven` tion, reference is to be had to the following' description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure l is a perspective view of one form or embodiment of the invent-ion, the two clamps being shown broken apart and separated. Fig. 2 is a similar view of another form of the device.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The improved device is formed from a single piece of wire and comprises a clamping jaw bent to form a bow 3 for the jaw 2, outer spring members 4 for the jaws and inner spring members 5 that are preferably slightly divergent near their outer portions to provide an entrance mouth wherein the clothes line. indicated at 6, may be easily entered. ,'After the wire has been turned inwardly from the members 4 to form the inner members 5 of the jaws 2, one of the ends of the wire is continued and bent into a loop through which one of the portions 5 is exs tended and whereby it is supported. The por- Specication of Letters Patent.
Application led June 23, 1911. Serial No. 634,963.
. scribed, the
With this and other objects in view as will more fully appear as the description pro-l ceeds, the invention consists in certain con-1 the loop of one Patented Apr. 22,191 3.
tion 5 is extended in substantially parallel y,
relations to the line 6 as represented at 9" and terminates in an eye 1l connected into a ring l2 slidably mounted upon the linel f3. If preferred, an open loop l() may be suhstituted for the eye l1 and ring 12, as shown in Fig. l. By this simple means the portion 9 is supported from lateral movement or displacement by the loop. The loop may be extended to form a secondary jaw as shown in Fig.- 2 if preferred. By this simple means the main jaw is firmly supported and lateral displacement of the extension 9a prevented.
The device being securedto the clothes line by its attaching ring l2 as above dejaws 5 are in position to be engaged over the clothes line and thus support the garments, the loop 3 bearing upon the outer face of the garment and holding them position while at the same time preventing the'jaw from downward displacement relative to the line.
The improved deviceis simple in construction, can be inexpenslvely manufacture and is retained in slidable and adjustable relations to the line and cannot therefore become lost or displaced while at the same time is at all times in position for instant use.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as newds:
A clothes pin ofthe character described formed from a single piece of wire and embodying oppositely bers each vcontaining co-acting jaws connected by a loop, the clamping members being connected by parallel portions, one'of the parallel portions being extended through clamping member to' hold the parts in relative position and thence eX- -tended to form means adapted to slidably connect the extended portion to a clothes line.
In testimony whereof, I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
