Svwewtoz tween the SIMMIE S. PUTNEY, OF ELGIN, OKLAHOMA.
WIRE CLOTHES-PIN.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SIMMIE S. PUTNEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Elgin, in the county of Comanche, Stateof Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wire Clothes-Pins; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. 1 i
This invention relates to improvements in clothes pins and comprises a construction of a wire clothes pin having an angularly disposed loop adapted to receive a clothes supporting rope and a gripping loop dependingfrom a bar integral with the angularly disposed loop for engaging clothes to be supported, said gripping loop being provided with an angularly disposed terminal whereby clothes may be quickly forced begripping jaws or bars of the gripping loop.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in certain constructions, combinations and arrangements of parts, clearly described in the following specification and clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which 2- Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the improved clothespin applied to a clothes line Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same detached from the. clothes line. Fig. 3 is a top plan view thereof. Fig. 4 is an end view showing thedepending gripping loop. Referring to the accompanying drawings 5 denotes a body bar of wirewhich is adapted to lie in substantially parallel relation with a clothes line and which carries the loops on'its opposite ends. On'one end of y the wire bar 5 a clothes line or rope engaging loop 6is formed, the loop 6 being angularly disposed on the bar 5 so that it will receive a clothes'line and the bar 5, can be placed against the uppermost portionof a clothes line. On the opposite end of the bar 5 an oval loop 7 is formed, said oval loop comprising a vertical bar portion 8 integral with the bar 5and forming a gripping jaw, a vertical-bar portion 9 spaced apart from the bar portion 8 and'connected thereto by a cross bar 10, and a bar .portion 11 forming a second gripping jaw and ter- Specifieation of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 1, 1914.
Application filed October 27, 1910. Serial No. 589,407.
minating in an outwardly bent end 12. The gripping jaw bar 11 is connected to the bar portion 9 by means of a cross bar 13 and the bent terminal or end of said gripping jaw bar 11, bent so as to form an entrance 14, whereby clothes can be forced between the gripping jaws, which gripping jaws are disposed in contacting relation to each other and also in parallel relation to each other. The upper cross bar 13 is disposed in a slightly lower plane than the main body bar 5 and is adapted to contact with the rope or clothes line.
When the improved clothes pin is placed in position on a rope or clothes line the angular loop terminal 6 will slightly bend the rope so as to secure a purchase thereon and the gripping loop 7 will be supported in a convenient position to receive clothes to be gripped and to. support clothes.
The cross bars 10 and 13 of the gripping loop 7 are arranged at substantially right angles to the main body bar 5.
It is to be noted that the loop 7 may be raised so that the line can be slid through the loop 6 and the position of the device changed on the line, this being accomplished without releasing the clothes which are held between the parts 11 and 8.
lng contiguous-to a portion of one side of the loop and having its free end directed outwardly of the loop, and a second loop at the other end of said body disposed at an obtuse angle to the body having the opening there through disposed in alinement with the opening of the first named loop, whereby said second loop constitutes clamping means on the line when the-first loop is in its lowermost'position on said line.
In testimony whereof, I alfix my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
SIMMIE S. PUTNEY.
