Description

W. M'. WILSON.
HAT PIN GUARD.
APPLICATION FILED AUG.30, 1911.
Patented Apr. 22, 1913.
WINNIE M. WILSON, or ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
HAT-PIN GUARD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 22, 1913.
Application filed August 30, 1911. Serial N 0. 646,835.
To all whom, it may concern Be it known that I, WINNIE M. WILSON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at St. Louis, in the State of Mis souri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hat-Pin Guards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to bat pin guards and one of the principal objects of the invention is to provide a simple, reliable and efficient means for protecting the point of the hat pin and to prevent persons from becoming injured by the projecting point.
Another object of the invention is to provide a knob for covering and protecting the point of the hat pin, said knob having a pair of serrated or roughened spring jaws which are closed by means of an eccentric or cam lever, said jaws normally springing apart slightly when the lever is thrown outward from the knob.
These and other objects may be attained by means of the construction illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which;
Figure l is a view in elevation of the hat pin and the guard secured to its point; Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken through the guard or knob and showing the point of the pin secured in place in said knob; Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view of the guard or knob, the eccentric or cam lever being shown in dotted lines thrown out of position for clamping the pin; Fig. 4 is a similar sectional view showing the lever thrown outward and the jaws of the clamp being slightly separated one from the other by the action of the spring to permit the insertion of the point of the pin; Fig. 5 is a trans verse sectional view on the line 55 of Fig. 3 looking in the direction indicated by the arrow. Fig. 6 is a transverse sectional view on the line 66 of Fig. 3 looking in the direction indicated by the arrow; and Fig. 7 is a detailed perspective view of the metal lining for the slot in the knob, said lining being of a slightly modified construction.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates a hat pin which may be of the usual or any suitable type provided with a ball or head 2 secured to one end thereof and a pointed end 3 formed upon the opposite end of said pin. It will be understood that the hat pin forms no part of my invention and may be of any suitable type desired. I
The guard for the point of the pin comprises a ball or knob 4 which may be'made of celluloid or other suitable plastic compound or composition, said knob having a slot extending from one side thereof to be yond the central point within said knob. Secured in the slot in the knob is a metal lining 5 which practically conforms to the contour of the knob at its outer edge, said lining covering both walls of the slot in said knob. Secured in the slot between the two parallel members of the lining 5 are jaw members 6 and 7, said jaw members being secured together at their upper ends by means of a rivet or pin 8 and said members being spaced apart by a small piece of metal 9 as shown more clearly in Figs. 3 and 4. The jaw members 6 and 7 are preferably curved as shown more clearly in Figs. 5 and 6 to firmly clamp the pin. The member 7 is preferably formed of spring metal and is normally slightly deflected at its outer end as shown in Fig. 4 so that the point of the pin may be readily inserted between the jaw members. For closing the spring members 7 against the pin point, I have provided an eccentric or cam lever 10, the outer edge of which conforms to the contour of the knob, said lever being pivoted upon a pin 11, which extends through the metal lining 5 and preferably through a collar 12 fitted to the front end of said knob. The ball or knob 4 may have a slight recess 13 for the purpose of permitting the engagement of the pointed portion 14 of the lever by the finger to swing the same outward to the position shown in Fig. 4 when it is desired to remove the guard from the point of the pin. As shown in Fig. 7, the lining of the slot in the guard or knob may also be formed of a single piece of metal and comprises the two wall members I) and c and an integral spring jaw member cl bent from the top of the lining and extending down between the two members I) and c. The inner wall of the back portion e of the lining maybe corrugated or roughened and the inner portion of the member (Z may also be corrugated as has been described with reference to the other views of the drawing.
From the foregoing, it will be obvious that a pin guard made in accordancewith my invention, can be quickly attached to the point of the in and can be quickly discon-.
nected there rom whenever desired; that the means for clamping the pin are positive in action and cannot readily be disconnected by accident, and at the same time the pin guard can be manufactured at low cost and can be ornamented in any suitable manner to make a very attractive as Well as useful device for its purpose.
I claim: 7
The herein described hat pin guard comprising a knob having an open slot extending from one side to a point slightly beyond the-lon itudinal center thereof. a metal lining forthe Walls of said slot, a serrated spring ja'W secured at one end in said slot with the free end normally springing outward, a -cam lever pivoted on a pin mounted in the metal lining of said slot, said lever having its outer edge conforming to the shape of the knob from end to end thereof and a metal collar surrounding the knob at the front end thereof, said pivot pin for said lever extending through said collar, said spring jaw adapted to engage a hat pin near the point thereof When the cam lever is swung into said slot.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
