rate-mea nai. a, rara Application led Octoberld, 1913. Serial Tlo. 795,120.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN WALKER TIL'roN, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Fasteners, 'of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates generally to curtainfasteners, but is more particularly designed for the curtains of automobiles, and is an improvement on the `curtain-fastener. described and illustrated in an application filed by me November 26, 1912, Serial Number 733,665.
The prime object of the invention is to f" simplify and cheapen the cost of construci tion Vof this type of fastener,
ing its durability or its effectiveness in operation.
.'Ilie invention consists 1n the novel construction and peculiar arrangement of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully described in this specifcationand briefly set forth in the claims.
In the drawings-Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved fastener; Fig. 2, a vertical section of the same; Fig. 3, a perspective view of the base-plate; Fig. 4, a similar view of the spring spider, detached, and Fig.
5, a side of the tubular post and rod.
Referring tothe several views, the numeral yl .indicates the base-plate which is provided witlfl'a central boss 2, preferably struck up outof the base-plate, cavity 3 therein. The tured, and passing therethrough is a tubular post 4, through which passes a vertically movable securing-'rod 5. Mounted on the upper end of the tubular-post and setting over the upper end of the securing-rod is a spider 6 having aplurality of downwardlyextending spring-arms 7, and seated above the spider is a spring 8, preferably a coilso as to provide a conspring. The ends of the spring-arms curve outwardly and resting upon them is the bottomedge of a vertically-slidable cap 9, having a perforation in the top thereof, through which the upper reduced end of the securingrod projects and is upset, as is also the lower end of said rod. Thus it will be seen that the several parts are securely held together,
without impairl boss is centrally aperlet'passes over the spring-arms, they immediatelyspring out 'conlinmg the-curtain. To release the curtain, the cap is pushed down, which forces the springarms inward out of engagement with the curtain.` X
aving thus described my invention, what Ijclaim is l. A Acurtain-fastener, comprising an attaching-plateilprovded with an integral, hollow boss having a central aperture, a `tubular post fitted-.to the apertured boss, a springarm spider seated upon the tubular post, and a headed operating-rod slidable in the tubular post, and a spring-pressed cap secured to the slidable rod, and adapted when operated to force the arms of the spider inward, so as to permit an object confined between the ends of the spring-arms and the hollow boss to `be release 2. A curtain-fastener, comprising an attaching-plate provided with anv integral, hollow boss having a central aperture, a sleeve attached to the apertured boss,- a spring-arm spider seated upon the sleeve, a movable rod operative through the sleeve and spider, a cap secured to the movable rod, said cap adapted when operated to force the spring-arms of the spider inward to release the curtainv confined between the ends of said arms and the hollow boss, means for ssj limiting the movement of the rod in one direction, and a spring interposed between in presence of two witnesses. l JOHN WALKER TILTOlN.
