CARDING narrates Specification of Letters Patent.
or MERCHANDISE.
Patented Sept. 9,1913.
Application filed October 26, 1912. Serial No. 727,938.
To all whom 2'15 may concern 1 s Be it known that I, NAtriiAN M. Donn, residing at Swampscott, in the county of Essex, State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Carding Articles of Merchandise, of which the following is a specificationu i p In the art of cardingsafety/pins it has been usual to provide the card on which the pins were mounted or displayed with two parallel rows of holes forming..parallel pairs, and in order to secure the pinstothe card, it has been necessary to insert thepoint of the pin through the holes and then fasten the pins. l-ittempts-have been made to obviate the difficulty in various ways but. the methods employed have been cumbersoine, and more or less involved. 7 1
By my improved invention itis possible to accomplish the desired result of carding safety pins in a manner which renders it possible to make the cares more cheaply,- to hold the pins more securely, and to allow of the pins being mounted and tttkull off the cards more expeditiously by an operation which is the acme of simplicity.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a card made to embody my invention; Figs. 2 and 3 modifications thereof; Fig. l showing the back of a card and the manner of inserting the'locking member, and Fig. asectional elevation of a holding block or means for holding the cards in suitable position while the pins are being mounted thereon.
As ordinarily utilized the card a is preferably rectangular in form and, while the drawings do not illustrate it particularly, at the top of the card may be left free an appreciable portion for the usual advertising matter or inscription.
A series of slits, Z), bl, b 5 b*, 6 etc., are arranged to occupy a considerable area of the card below the above mentioned free space for printed matter and the said area being preferably located for symmetry in equal divisions on each side of an imaginary line drawn through the center: of the card from the top to the bottom, referring to the portion assigned for the fre e space as the top. Separating members 0, 0 0 0 etc, are left integral with the card and connecting the marginal portions, d, 6 thereof, for the purpose of anchoring the pins which are mounted thereon in such manner that the longest sides of said pins such as f, F, Figs.
1 and 4 are disposed one on each side of said anchoring or separating members.
Theseparatingor anchoring members 0; c 0 etc, may be made to have anarea about equal to thearea of one of the slits or of an area to. aii'ord sufficient mechanical strengthto hold the pins to withstand whatever usage the card of pins may receive during'the course of ordinary handling. A locking member 9 is provided which is inserted at the back of the card beneath the side members f, f, of the pins Fig. 4, and between said members and the anchoring members 0, 0, 0 6' etc., this locking member being of suflicient length to traverse all the pins, and of suflicient width to occupy substantially all of the available space beneath the pins at the back of the card, such as it, ill, Fig. 4;. This locking member may be madeof a fairly stiff paper or cardboard in case it should be desired to disassemble the pins from the card by openingthe point from its guard or by withdrawing the locking member from beneath the particular pins which are to be demounted, and may also be provided with a point, If, to render its insertion beneath the pins more easy. A nother manner of disassembling the pins, however, is to provide a locking member of a thin paper such as tissue paper having sui'iicient rigidity and strength to lock the pins against all ordinary possibilities of disturbance, but at the same time possessing such characteristicqualities that the pins may be readily detached by tearing through the tissue paper at the location where it holds the pin. i
In Fig. 1 the pins are mounted in the slits b, 0 b 6 etc., so that the adjoining 1nembers of each pin occupy the same slit in jux taposition, that is, the sides f, f of adjoining pins, Fig. 1, occupy the slit 71*, 79 This plan affords a very compact arrangement of the pins. Fig. 2 however, illustrates a slightly difie'ent arrangement should it be desired, or one in which the two slits of a pair are necessarily devoted to the reception of only one pin. In this case, of course, the separating member between the pairs of slits does not possess the function of an anchoring member also, but merely that of a separating member only. This modification, however, may be preferred where the tissue paper is used and the pin is detached by pulling it through the tissue paper, tearing the latter, although it is immaterial pro- 'sitating only one slit per pin.
vided the end pin is always the one which is pulled off the card.
Fig. 3 represents amodification in which the pin. is held by inserting only one of the side members of said pin in a slit and neces- In this arrangement, also, the separating members function as separating members only, and not 7 as anchoring members. this case occupy a position so as to render their standing at an angular relation with respect to the plane of the card, instead of flat, or parallel with said plane, as in Figs. 1 and 2. V
The operation of my invention is as fol lows: Assuming the cards upon which the pins to be mounted to be cntto the required size and provided with the necessary slits by a process and apparatus not claimed in this invention, the card a is placedin the hold ing block, a, shownin F ig.5 by bending it slightly so that it occupies the arched position illustrated in said figure. In the case of mounting the pins by means of my inven tion the pins in their closed position are merely dropped into the slits, so as to straddle the members 0, etc., it not being necessary to open them. The locking member 9 is then inserted and fed through the clearance space j between the pinsand card underneath the latter. The particular manner of feeding this locking member is not essential for the purpose of discussion here. It may be stated, however, that the locking member holds its given position by virtue of its frictional contact between the projected portions of the pins, 7a, and the separating members of the card. In the case where hanced; so much so, in fact that a valuable advance in the art is obviously the result of my lnvention. It will readily be appreciated also, the ease with which the pins can be detached froin the cards without opening the pins as heretofore explained, that is, either by withdrawing the locking member from beneath the pins which it is desired to remove or by tearing through the locking member. 7
WVhile I have described my invention with The pins, in
particular reference to the art of carding safety pins it will be understood that I do not limit myself to any particular class of merchandise, but that any devices which can be mounted and demounted by the principles herein related are within the scope of my invention.
/VhatI claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent ofthe United States,is:
lni-i mount for safety pins having par 'allel straight slits, the slits being spaced apart adistance to permit the pins to lie flat therein for storing, and a slidable lockingmember between themount and the part of the pins projecting through the slits for holding the pins in the slits. whereby the pins can be removed from the card.
2 A mount for safety plns having parallel straight slits through which the shanks of .thepins are inserted, and a locking mem-.
ber of sever-able material between the mount and the part ofthe pins projecting through the slits for holding the pins in the slits, whereby a pin may be removed by tearing in the following steps; closing the pins to form a loop, inserting the shanks inra slitted flexible card or support, bowing the card to provide an arched open spacejbetween the shanks and card, and threading'a locking strip through the'arched space;
The method of carding safety pins or similar devices in closed loop form consisting in the following steps: closing the ins to form a loop, inserting their shanks in a.
slitted flexible card or support, mounting the card in a suitable holderin'such manner as tobow the card to provide an arched open space between the shanks and card, thread ing a locking strip through the arched space thus provided, and lastly removing the card from the holder in order to cause said card to lie flat and lock the pins thereto.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand'this 21st day of October, 1912.

DUGALD McK. MCKILLOP.
