BLANKET-FASTENER.
Specification of Letters Patent.-
Patented NOV. 28, 1916.
Application led March 27, 1916. Serial No. 86,881.
To all 'whom t may concern,
Be it known that I, GEORGE F. JOLY, Jr., a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Atlantic City, New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Blanket-Fastener, of which the following is a specification.
Myv invention relates particularly to animal blankets and one 0f the important objects of the invention is to provide simple and inexpensive means for fastening such blankets on animals of different sizes.
The invention is of particular importance in connection with horse blankets. These blankets are usually made in a standard size and considerable difficulty has heretofore been experienced in securing such blankets upon animals of different neck measurements, various expedients having been employed for this purpose, such as safety-pins, straps, chains and the like. In my invention I have overcome the need for these objectionable and imwieldy fastenings by the employment, in connection with a snap hook or like suitable fastener on one flap of the blanket, a base plate secured to the, coperating flap of the blanket and supporting a plurality of loops, any one of which may be engaged with the snap hook or other element on the opposite flap, in accordance with the neck size of the animal.
Various other features of the invention will appear as the specification proceeds and will be made clear by reference to the accompanying drawing forming a part hereof and in which :w-
Figure 1, is a view illustrating the invention applied to and in use in connection with a horse blanket, only a part of the overlapping flaps at the neck portion of the blanket being shown. Fig. 2, is a longitudinal sectional view of the fastener taken substantially on the plane of the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3, is an edge view illustrating the hook engaged in the intermediate position with the center loop. Fig. 4, is a detached detail view of the multiple loop element of the fastener.
Referring to the drawings now more in detail 7 designates a blanket shaped at 8 to encircle the neck of an animal and formed with 'overlapping flap portions 9 and 10 which when fastened together serve to se cure the blanket in position upon the animal Mounted on one of the flaps is a securing element preferably in the nature of a snap hook such as indicated at 11 and mounted in a position to coperate therewithon the opposite ap are a series of loops or eyes 12,
these loops being` all supported on a single base plate, which is secured on the blanket by suitable means such as the rivets 13.
The loop-supporting base plate is of novel construction embodying a base' member 14 preferably made from sheet metal and formed at predetermined points withoutstanding loops 15 adapted to receive the base portions of the fastener loops 12, this base plate being backed up by a backing strip 16 preferably formed integral therewith. One practical method of constructing this base plate is to form it from a piece of strip metal by bending` up lthe central loop at the middle thereof and then bending back the end portions to form the end loops, such end portions then lying in back of the body of the base plate as indicated in Fig. 4, the `end portions preferably being cut at the proper length to approximately abut each other as indicated at 17. Where greater adjustmentl is necessary, a larger number of loops may be provided, as will be evident. The base plate is preferably punched with holes 18 to receive the rivets and these holes are preferably disposed relatively close to the retaining loops 15 so as to hold the back and front portions of the base plate firmly together and thereby prevent the retaining loops from being sprung open.
In the usual practicey the snap vhook is placed on the overlying flap 9 and the multiple loop member is placed on the underlving iap as indicated in the several views. The use of the invention will be understood from the foregoing. If the animal is of large size and the blanket fits the neck well` the hook on the outer liap is simply snapped eoV into the outermost loop. For a smaller ani- Y mal the size of the neck opening is reduced to t the animal by snapping the hook on 'the one flap into one of the inner loops on the other flap.
The invention is light, inexpensive and adds very little to the weight and the cost of the blanket and is, it will be seen, of
great value, in that it provides a means for dapting standard sized blankets to differnt sizes of animals.
What I claim is 1. In combination with an animal blanket aving flaps at the neck portion thereof,
@adapted to be overlapped more or less in ac- Copies of this patent may be obtained for tiple loop attachment for horse blankets and the like comprising a base plate of strip metal bent to form out-standing spaced apart retaining loops on the face and at the ends thereof and having end portions doubled back upon said base plate in rear of said retaining loops, closing and reinforcing said hinge loops and hook-'receiving loops engaged in said retaining loops.
