This invention relates to improvements in napkin holders, and particularly to devices for holding napkins on the clothing.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a simple and novel device for clamping one corner of a napkin and having independent means for gripping the garment. a
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the followingdescription, when taken in connection with the accompany- In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the napkin holder in operative position. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the device in the position Fig. 3 is a perspective I view of the holder in open position.
Referring particularly to the accompanying drawings, 10 and 11 represent respectively the outer and inner plates of the holder. Connectingthese plates at the ends thereof are the plates 12, these latter being connected to the plates 10 and 11 by means of the spring hinged joints13. These spring hinged joints have a tendency to normally throw the parts into trapezoidal form as shown in Fig. 1, the corner of the napkin being arranged to be passed between the plates 10 and 11 and held by the collapsed portions of the device. One end of the outer plate is formed with a plurality of transverse teeth 15 which cooperate with teeth 16 formed on a hinged member. 17 carried by the adjacent end of the inner with the member 17 normally againstthe teeth 15. The ad:
plate 11.. A coiled spring 18 is mounted on the pivot pin of the member 17 and bears against a finger-piece 19 formed integrally 17 and forces the member grasped together with the thumb-piece 19 so that the member17 can be swung on its pivot agalnst the tension of the spring 18 and force the member away from the plate 10. A: portion of the garment may then vided a simple and effective device for holdlng a corner of the napkin and at the same time suspendmg the same from a garment to protect the clothing. The napkin may be folded or rolled and acent portion of the plate 10 carries a thumb-piece 20 which is arranged tobe then inserted be;

tween the plates 10 and 11 in the manner, 1
of using a napkin ring, the device olasping on the napkin and holding the same firmly therein.
What is claimed is:
A napkin holder comprising a pair of superposed plates, spring actuated members connecting the plates and holding the plates normallyin closed position to clamp a napkin normally therebetween, the projecting end of one plate being formed with garment engaging teeth, a pivoted spring, pressed tooth member carried by the other plate for cooperative engagement with the toothed end of the first plate to grip a portion of a garment. and thumb-pieces carried by the first named plate and the pivoted tooth member.
In testimony whereof, I afiix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
