Theinvention relates to improvements in separable fasteners, and more particularly to the lateral-closing, head and sockettype of such fasteners, the same embodying a resilient retaining means to prevent the acci dental separation of the parts thereof under ordinary strains or conditions of usage.
The primary object of the inventionisto provide a comparatively simple and ineX-f pensive construction of the character mentioned, and, one which embodies an attractive, yet conservative, design, and highest efiiciency for the purpose, ing devicesiof this type. 7 c' a t The invention resides in the'certain-new and novel construction Which will be hereinafter morefully described, set forth in the appended claims, and illustrated inthe accompanying drawing, in which,
Figure 1. is an enlarged bottom plan view thereof, Fig; 2 is a front elevatioinFig. '3 is a longitudinal section on the l1ne3-3 of Fig. .2, Fig. at is a horizontal section on the line ll of Fig 3, Fig. 5 is-a fragmentary vertical section on the line 55 of Fig. 4. Y 7

same consisting of a single piece of sheet material, preferably sheet-metal, shaped to provide a body substantially U-form in cross-section, and having its side walls, and
one of its end walls, curved or rounded, as shown. These side and end. walls terminate in an inwardly rolled formation11, disposed within the body and arranged to provide a shank-engaging channel ,12- therebetween. The edge of this rolled formation 1lis shaped to provide a second rolled formation l3- of a size approximately one-half of that of the" formaj Applicationfil'ed August10,1915. serial no. 44,718.1

' n -1 l The opposed walls of the Chainnel 12;-,- immediately adjacent the open end thereof, are flattened, as at to i provide a flared entrance thereto. r
Disposed within therolled formation l3 is a substantially U-shaped resilient 7 member "15, preferably formed of spring wire, having its parallel members formed to I provide opposed bent portions -l6, which project into the channel '-12+ through" suitable slots or openings 17 formed in the opposed Walls of therolled formation -'11 for the purpose; The resilient mem-T -be1-- isretained firmly in position by means of a struck-out tongue 18+, formed in the free edge of the rolled formation 7. 13, preferably at a point medially of the connecting portion thereof, which ad-- 7 mits of unrestricted movementof the par allel members, but prevents the latterfroni becomingtotally displaced from'their operative position.
