HOOK BOB HOOKS AND EYES.
Application fiIedMay 27, 1912, Serial No. 699,888. Renewed May 7, 1915.
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that l, CHRISTIAN Axnnnsnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hooks for Hooks and Eyes, of which the following is a speciiication.
This invention relates to improvements in that class of hooks which are used in conjunction with eyes for fastening garments, and its consists in certain peculiarities of the construction, novel arrangement and operation of the parts thereof, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth and specifically claimed.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide a hook of such construction and arrangement ofits parts as to require sewing or stitching in two places only, namely in the stitching eyes, and not as in the old style hooks which have their stitching loops at the end of a shank and situated below the bill of the hook, thereby necessitating a third sewing or stitching at the point of the bend which connects the bill.
Another object of the invention is to provide a hook of such construction that it will more easily engage the eye, than those heretofore made, there being no metal under the engaging point of the bill of my improved hook, thus preventing accidental jamming of the bill against the metal of the shank, which is liable to happen with hooks having a shank underneath the engaging point of the bill.
A further object is to furnish a hook which shall possess the strength and durability of the ordinary or common sized hook, but by reason of my improvements affords a hook of much smaller size than the ordinary.
A still further object is to provide a hook in which the sewing loops will take the place of the shank, thereby saving the extra material which has been necessary heretofore to form the shank of the hook.
Various other objects and advantages of the invention will be disclosed in the subjoined description and explanation.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, to make and use the same I will now proceed to de- Specification of Letters Patent.

scribe it referring to the accompanying drawings in which-- Figure 1, is an enlarged perspective view of a hook embodying one form of the invention. Fig. 2, is a side view thereof showing the bill of the hook in engagement with an eye, which eye is shown partly in section.
Like numerals of reference refer to corresponding parts throughout the different views of the drawings.
Referring now, to Figs. 1 and 2, of the drawings, it will be understood that the hook consists of a single piece of material, preferably wire, and said wire or material is formed to produce a bill which includes two members or portions 10, and 11, which are located alongside of one another and connected together at one end of the bill, which will be termed the point thereof, by means of a bent portion 12. The opposite end of each of the members 10 and 11, are downturned as at 13, and each is provided or formed into a stitching or sewing loop 14:, each of which is preferably elongated in the direction of its respective members 10 or 11, beneath which it lies mainly and by preference outwardly therefrom. Each of the stitching loops 1 1, is shown in the present instance, as being provided in its portion adjacent to its respective member 10, or 11, of the bill of the hook, with an upwardly extended hump or bend 15, which approximate the lower surfaces of the membore 10, and 11, so as to permit an eye 16, of the ordinary or any preferred construction, to be passed between the humps or bends 15, and the members 10 and 11, of the bill, with some resistance, so that when the eye is in engagement with the bill of the hook as shown in Fig. 2, it will be retained in such position against accidental disengagement. Each of the loops 14:, is formed so as to lie in substantial parallelism with the lower surfaces of the members 10 and 11, of the bill of the hook, and the free end of each loop is bent around and engages the lower portion of the downturned part 13, of each of the members 10 and 11, of the hookof the bill, as is clearly shown at 17.
The object of clenching the free ends of the loops 14 to the downturned parts 13 of the members 10 and 11 is to insure rigidity of the sewing or stitching loops to prevent the latter from spreading and to also prevent said' loops from becoming separated from the parts 13 of the members 10 and 11. This is an important feature in the hook construction since it not only greatly increases the eflicieney and strength of the device but also acts as a firm anchor for the base end of the bill. It will also be seen that the stitching loops perform two functions, namely means to allow sewing of the hook to the garment, and also means to support or carry the humps.
From the foregoing and by reference to the drawings, it will readily be understood and clearly seen, that by placing the stitching loops 011 the cloth or garment, to which it is desired to attach the hooks, said loops may be firmly secured in position by stitches overlapping the same and extended through i the clot Having thus fully described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A hook for hooks and eyes formed of a single length of wire bent to form a bill member, the free end portions of the bill member being extended downwardly and continued to form stitching loops that project outwardly from the sides of the bill member, the inner sides of the loops having humps which underlie the legs of the bill member, the free extremities of the outer sides of the loops terminating at the downwardly extending portions of the bill memher, and clenched to the said downwardly extending portions of the bill member.
