CROCHET TENSION DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 20, 1917.
Application filed June 13, 1916. Serial No. 103,478.
To all whom it may concern:
the construction and increase the efficiency and utility of devices of this character.
Another object of the invention is to provide a simply constructed device which may be worn upon one of the fingers of the operator which while producing the required tension upon the cord or thread, will not interfere with the usual occupations of the wearer.
The principal object of the invention is to maintain a perfect tension upon the thread, silk, or yarn, which enables the lady to make every stitch in the work perfectly uniform and also saves her fingers from wear or friction. The improved device will provide a perfect tension on any and all sizes of threads, sliks, or yarns, and the same tension will be imparted to the finest silk or coarsest thread, yarn, or knitting cotton.
In the drawings illustrative of the preferred embodiment of the invention;
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a hand with the improved device applied to one ofthe fingers;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged detached perspective view of the improved device.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in both the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The improved device comprises a split band adapted to be disposed over one of the fingers of the operator and provided with an open hook. Preferably the band is formed from a single piece ofmaterial such as celluloid or the like in wire-like form and bent intermediate its ends upon itself, as
Qepies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the illustrated at 10, and bent into an open hook, represented at 11, next to the bend, and with the terminals 12 spaced slightly from the inner or closed end of the hook, as shown. The parts forming the sides of the improved device are disposed in close proximity and in parallel relation, as shown. The im} proved device being of flexible or'yieldable material will engage the finger with sufficient friction to prevent its displacement when in use, while at the same time forming a sufiicient grip upon the thread, silk, yarn, or the like, when disposed between the improved device and the finger of the operator. The terminals 12 being spaced from the closed end of the hook 10, provide means for inserting the thread or the like between the finger of the operator and the band, as illustrated in Fig. 1.
The improved device may be inexpensively manufactured and of any suitable material and in varying sizes to adapt it to the fingers of the operator and the thread or yarn passed one or more times around the band and through the hook, as shown in Fig.
'1, to increase the tension.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as "new is:
1. As a new article of manufacture, a band divided transversely and adapted to engage over a fingerrwith the terminals in spaced relation and a hook formed on one of said terminals, the hook being directed in parallel relation to the transverse plane of the band and opening away from the space between the terminals of the same.
2. As a new article of manufacture, ,a device of the class described, formed from a section of resilient material bent upon itself intermediate the ends and formed into a finger engaging band divided transversely, the portion of the band at the intermediate bend being formed into a hook with the opening of the hook directed away from the space between the terminals of the band and in alinement with the transverse plane of the same.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
