' HOLDING-CLIP.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Now, 26, 1918,
Application filed April 8, 1918. Serial No. 227,351.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRIS M. HANSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Portland, in the county of Multnomah and State of Oregon, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Holding-Clips, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in holding clips and more particularly to a holding clip adapted to'be positioned in the rule holding pocket of a suit of overalls and which forms a means for securely holding a rule or the like positioned therein and prevent the same from dropping from the pocket.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which is easily and simply constructed, inexpensive to manufacture and one which will be very eflicient in operation.
With these and numerous other objects in view, my invention consists of the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts which will be herein referred to and more particularly pointed out in the specification and claim.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a rear elevation of the device,
Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the same, and
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the blank from which the clip is formed.
In describing my invention, I shall refer to the drawings in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The clip is formed from a single piece of metal which is bent to form a casing 1 formed with a split or open back 2 and the mouth of the casing is outwardly flared as shown at 3 so as to permit the ready introduction of an instrument thereinto. The back of the casing is provided with outwardly projecting upwardly extending portions 4 that act as guides so as to facilitate the placing of an instrument in the clip.
The front and rear portions of the easing 1 are provided with downwardly projecting arms designated by the numerals 5 and 6 which tend to bear against a rule or the like that is positioned in the clip, and the depending arm 5 is provided with a flat spring tongue 7 struck up from the same and having its terminal extending inwardly beyond the inner face of said front of the casing. This tongue extends upwardly and is formed of a portion of the front of said casing. The tongue 5 has on its lower end a projecting stud 8 which is pointed, and is provided with an enlarged head 9, for a purpose to be hereinafter more fully described.
The upper front edge of the casing 1 is provided with an extension 10, that is bent back upon the front portion of the casing in parallel spaced relation, and which extends to a point adjacent the lower edge of the downwardly extending arm 5. The extremity of the extension 10 is bent inwardly and then upwardly as shown at 11 and the same is provided with an aperture 12 adapted to receive the projecting head of the stud 8 to clamp the extension to the clip as is clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawing.
In operation, the clip is adapted to be positioned over the outer face of the pocket with the clip casing positioned within the pocket, and the extension 10 on the outside thereof. When in position so that the upper edge of the pocket is engaged by the junction of the extension 10 and easing, the pointed lug 8 is forced through the pocket, and its enlarged head is engageable by the extremity of the extension 10. This will serve to securely lock the clip in operative position. When a rule or the like is positioned through the casing 1 the flat projecting spring tongue 7 will bear against the same and securely hold the rule in position. The flared portion of the mouth of the easing together with the extensions 4 that serve as guides, will facilitate the introduction of a rule or the like into said casing. This type of holding clip is especially adapted to be positioned in the rule holding pocket of a suit of overalls, although the same may be used for various other purposes. It is obvious that the size of the casing may be varied according to the type of instrument adapted to be positioned therein.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings,it is thought that a clear and comprehensive understanding of the construction, operation and advantages of my invention may be had, and while I have shown and described the device as embodying a specific structure, I desire that it be understood that such changes may be made in said structure as do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
A clip for holding a rule or like instrument comprising a casing open at the back and provided with a flaring mouth, the casing having depending front and rear arms, a forwardly extending lug on the lower end of the front arm having an enlarged pointed head, a fiat spring tongue struck up from the front of the casing and depending arm and having its terminal extending inwardly beyond the inner face of the front an extension on the upper front edge of said casing adapted to be bent back upon the front of the casing and arm in parallel spaced relation, and the extremity of said extension being bent back upon itself and apcrtured to receive the head of the projecting lug.
In testimony whereof, I affix my signature hereto.
CHRIS M. HANSON.
