FASTENING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 1c, 1917.
Application filed September 17, 1915. Serial No. 51,192.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE L. GUILLET, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fastening Devices, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to fastening-devices in the nature of clasp-pins or safety-pins, such as are used in connection with badges or the like,' or for fastening various articles together. 1
One object of the invention is to produce a fastening-device in which two pins are formed in one piece, together with the loops or retainers with which they cooperate, from a single length of wire, thus producing a simple and cheap construction in which it is unnecessary to secure the pins together by means of solder or additional members.
A fastening-device formed in accordance with the present invention is particularly useful in connection with a badge, since it provides, in a simple manner, the two pins which are employed, respectively, for fastening the badge to the clothing of the wearer, and for the attachment of a ribbon to the badge; and in this connection a further object of the invention is to improve the construction, and reduce the cost, of such badges by using the one-piece construction above referred to, and by applying it to the body of the bad e in such a manner that only a single soldered joint is necessary for attaching the two pins to the body of the badge.
To the foregoing ends the invention consists'in a fastening-device in which two pins are produced from a single length of wire, and in the combination of such a fasteningdevice with a badge or the like, all as hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a rear view, in perspective, of a badge provided with a fastening-device constructed in accordance with the present invention; Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section, looking from left to right in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a top view of a badge constructed in accordance with the present invention; and Fig. 4: is a detail view of one end of the badge from the rear side thereof.
The invention is illustrated as employed in connection with a badge 5 of sheet-metal,
which may be of any ordinary or suitable form and construction. The fastening-dev ce, in which the invention particularly resides, comprises a single length of wire, of which one end-portion forms a pin 6 havinga point 7 and a base-end 8. The base-end of the pin 6 is continuous with a downwardly-extending and laterally deflected retaining-loop 9, and from this loop the wire then extends in the form of a straight shank 10, which extends parallel with the pin 6 and along the back of the badge. Continuous with the farther end of the shank 10 is a second or outwardlyextending and laterally defiected retaining-loop 11, which cooperates with the point 7 of the pin 6 in the manner of a safety-pin. From the loop 11 the wire then extends straight toward the loop 9, thus forming a second pin 12, parallel with the pin 6 but closer to the body of the badge, the free end 13 of the pin 12 cooperating with the loop 9 in the manner of a safety-pin.
The shank 10 is shown as soldered to the rear surface of the badge, and the pins 6 and 12 occupy, respectively, the positions in which they are convenient for use in fastening the badge to the clothing of the wearer, and in supporting a ribbon. Since the ribbon is usually provided with a hem through which the pin 12 is passed, this pin is shown as having a blunt end, though it may be pointed if desired.
The pin 6 is disengaged from the loop 11 by pressing its point toward the badge and then upwardly, while the pin 12 is disengaged from the loop 9 by pulling it away from the badge and then downwardly.
The two loops 9 and 11, in addition to acting as retainers for the ends of the pins, serve also to provide increased resiliency in the pins, in the same manner as the coils which are commonly used atrthe junction between the pin proper and the shank of the ordinary safety-pin.
- In badges as previously constructed two separate pins have been employed, each of these pins being soldered or otherwise fixed independently to the body of the badge. It will be apparent that the present construction greatly simplifies the construction of the badge, and reduces its cost, since it not only permits the two pins to be produced. at
one operation of an automatic wire-bending machine, but it also simplifies the assembling of the parts and eliminates one of the posite ends of the shank portion, one of said joints necessary in previous constructions. loops extending downwardly and the other I claim: 7 of said loops extending outwardly, a pin 10 In combination with a badge, a fastening extending from each loop, the pin on the 5 device formed from a single piece of wire downwardly turned loop being nearer the and having an intermediate shank portion badge and also lower than the other pin. secured to the badge, retaining loops at op- V GEO.
