UNTTED STATES PATENT OFFTCE.
IOLA A. HUGHES, OF COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO.
HOOK-AND-EYE FASTENER.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, IOLA A. HUGHES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Colorado Springs, in the county of El Paso and State of Colorado, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hook-and-Eye Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to garment fasteners and more particularly to hook and eye fasteners.
One of the principal objects of the invention is to secure as flat a device of this char acter as can be obtained, such a feature being particularly advantageous upon fine gowns or wash material, which latter may be ironed readily without injuring the work or the hook or eye and no high polish will be left where the iron passes over either member.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character which will hold safely and firmly and in which the hook will not slip from one end of the eye to the other with every movement and which cannot become unfastened Without the conscious effort of the wearer.
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 application, ancl in which Figure 1 is a plan view of the hook. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the eye. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the hook and eye connected showing, in dotted lines, fragments of the separate parts of the garment to be connected.
In the specific embodiment of the invention illustrated herein, A represents the hook and B the eye of the fastener. The hook A comprises a single integral piece of metal, preferably in the form of a strand of wire, which is doubled upon itself to form separate legs 1 and 2 and the loop of which is inwardly bent to form tWostretching eyes 3 and st. The inwardly bent portion of the loop, which forms a separate eye, is shown at 5, and abuts the legs 1 and2 at their points of meeting, as shown in Fig. 1.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 5, 1911.
Patented Aug. 26,1913.
Serial No. 642,450.
The legs 1 and 2 extend upon parallel lines and lie against each other to form an integral shank and at their ends are bent in opposite directions to form eye engaging hooks 6 and 7. These hooks are bent upon a compound curve for a portion of the hook lying closely adjacent to the shank so as to form a restricted passage 8. The vertical ends of the hooks are bent back upon themselves and lie adjacent the shank, as shown.
The eye 13 consists of a single strand of wire having its ends bent into attaching loops 9 and 10 and its intermediate portion raised so as to receive the hooks 6 and 7 At the center of the raised portion a depending loop 11 is formed to receive the shank composed of the legs 1 and 2. This depending loop forms in effect spaces 12 which are tapered to receive the hooks 6 and 7. The hooked end of the hook A is substantially iVl-shaped and the eye is also sub stantially [Vi-shaped with the intermediate portion of the end sufliciently wide to receive the shank of the hook.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new is A hook consisting of a single strand of wire bent inwardly at a point intermediate its length to form a pair of attaching eyes, bars extending forwardly from the attaching eyes in contacting relation to each other throughouttheir entire length and at right angles to said eyes, the terminals of said bars being thence bent outwardly, thence inwardly and thence rearwardly and in a longitudinal plane with the contacting bars and forming on opposite sides of the bars a longitudinally disposed restricted passage, the end portions of said hooks being folded inwardly and forwardly and against the inner sides thereof and in a longitudinal plane with the bars and serving to reinforce the hooks.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
IOLA A. HUGHES.
