MATCH-STRIKER.
Specication of Letters Patent.
Patented J an. 21, 1919.
v Application led April 3, 1918. Serial No. 226,485.
To all whom t may concern: Be it known that I, FRANKLIN FORD PETERS, of the city of Winnipeg, in the Province of Manitoba, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Match-Strikers, of which the following is the specification.
The invention relates to improvements in y match strikers and the principal object of `the invention is to provide a simply constructed and inexpensive match striker arranged so that it can be conveniently secured in a non-conspicuous place to the clothes and which can be relied on to ignite the match and without disiiguring in any way the garment.
A further object of the invention is to arrange the fastening pin so that when once fastened it will remain fastened and a still further object is to construct the device fromv as few parts as possible without impairing its etliciency.
With the above objects in view the invention consists essentially in a striking plate having a lengthwise extending channel or depression therein presenting a roughened face and fitted at the top end with a pair of guides and an indent and at the lower end with a pair of pockets and a pin passing normally through the guides and entering the pockets, the parts being arranged and constructed as hereinafter more particularly described and later pointed out in the appended claim, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 represents a face view of the striker as it appears fastened to the interior face of a coat.
Fig. 2 represents an enlarged face view of the striker.
Fig. 3 represents a reverse view of the striker with the pin shown withdrawn in dotted outline.
taken in the plane denoted by the line Z-Z Fig. 2 and looking downwardly. j
In the drawing like characters 'of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
1 represents a body of the striker which is made preferably from a metallic plate considerably longer than wide and which has the central portion thereof formed with a lengthwise extending groove 2 madeby depressing the plate to form the groove. v
The front face of the groove is roughened to present a good striking face, such being done in the present instance by cross cutting the face of the plate in the groove as indi'- cated at 3 to present a rough surface, it being understood that the cuts do not go through the material of the plate. Directly above the upper end of the groove I form a pair of guides 4 and 5 which are made by cross cutting the plate with pairs of parallel cuts which provide cross straps 6 and 7 which, after being formed, are pressed back to form, with the body of the plate, eyes 8 and 9.
Directly beneath the lower end of the groove 2 I provide on the rear side of the plate a pair of vertically disposed pockets l0 and 11 which are alined vertically with the guides 4 and 5. These pockets are actually constructed by making two horizontally alined but spaced cross cuts 12 and 13 in the body of the plate and then depressing those portions of the plate beneath the cross cuts backwardly and shaping the depressions so that they taper in a more or less half cone-shaped manner. i l
14 represents a fastening pin presenting a head 15 and two parallel pointed prongs 16 and 17. Normally the pin takes the position at the back of the plate with the'head closed against the guides, the prongs extending through the guides andthe points 16 and 17 of the prongs in the pockets.
In the upper end of the plate in a location centrally thereof and directly above the head of the pin I make a small hump 18 in the plate by indenting it which hump acts Aas a stop to prevent the pin from raising suiiciently high to release the points from the pockets. It, however, is not of such magnitude that itcannot be forcibly drawn over the hump when one wishes to remove the striker.
In actual practice I have found it very advantageous to secure this striker on the "forced downso that the prongs will vpass through and catch the cloth of the garment Iand finally take a position with the points in the pockets.
In this final position the location of the pin is as shown in the drawing and obviously the striker will be held tothe garment by the prongs which pass through it. Anv tendency for the pin to work loose is counter-acted by the stop but if one wishes to'remove thestriker he has only to catch the head of `the pin and pull it upwardly -and 'rorcibly over the indent.
From the above it will be apparent that this device can be constructed at small cost and forms a convenient device for striking a match, the lighting ofthe match being accomplished by drawing the head of it yCnpies of this patent may be obtained. for
upper end of the pockets quickly over the roughened face of the groove 2.
VVh-at I claim as .my invention is A match striker comprising a striking plate having a centrally located lengthwise extending channel pressed therein and with the face of the channel roughened foricontact with the match, eyes formed at the plate by transversely doubly slitting theplate and pressing the intervening strip b'ackwardly, a pair of located at the lower end of thepla-te alined vertically with the eyes` land formed by slitting the plate and depressing the body of the plate backwardlyl at the slit, a lias-4 tening` pin presenting a cross head and Atwo parallel pointed prongs and having the prongs passing slidably through the eyes and with their .lower ends received within the pocketsand a hump located at the' upper end Vof the plateand positioned normally above the cross head of the pin.
Signed at Winnipeg, this 18 day of J anuary 1918.
