THOMAS P. MARSTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR TO JOHN S. LOUGHERY, OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVEMENT IN TAG-FASTENINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 131,174, dated September 10, 1872.
Specification describing a certain Improvement Relating to Tag-Fastenin gs, invented by THOMAS P. MARSTON, of New York city, in the State of New York.
The invention relates to the mode of clasping or locking the metallic hooks.
The following is a description of what I consider the best means of carrying out the invention.
The accompanying drawing forms a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a view of the metal after it has been cut out and before it is bent in its mid- -dle length. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section after it is bent, and Fig. 3 is a corresponding section after it is engaged with a piece of cloth.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
I take a sheet of metal, which may be common tin of proper thickness, and cut it by dies and bend it into the form represented. I designate the main body by M. The triangular portion, bent up as indicated by A, is the engageswith the cloth and perforates it when the fastening is finally put in use. Near the opposite end of the strip of metal M I cut, by the same or a separate operation, and slightly bend out of the plane, another portion of metal which is marked B. The hole produced by this operation is marked B. Near the middle length of this strip of metal I punch a hole, 0, and on the adjacent edges I produce small notches marked 0 G On bending the strip of metal by hand or machinery the bend is formed where the metal is thus weakened. The tagnot re presented may be attached to this fastening by means of a string wound around and. resting in the notches 0 0 or by a string simply passed through the hole 0 and knotted.
The bent strip M with the tag attached is applied upon the edge of the cloth or other material 1), and pressed strongly together with the thumb and finger. The hook A perforates the cloth, and, striking the inner side of the shield B, is deflected or bent so as to protrude through the hole B in a position nearly parallel to the plane of the metal M. It extends through the hole B produced by the cutting out of the part B, and laps upon the main body of the metal so asto take a firm hold thereof. The tag is now secured not only'by the penetration of the cloth by the hook A, and the clinching of the point of the hook after it has passed through the cloth, but also by the fact that the clinch takes hold of the opposite metal as well as of the cloth, and holds the two parts of the metal plate M firmly together. The metal partially removed in cutting the part B serves as a shield to clinch the hook A, as described.
I claim as my invention The shield-piece B slightly displaced or bent out of the plane of the adjacent metal M, and arranged to serve, relatively to the hook A on the opposite end of the fastening, as and for the purpose herein specified.
I11 testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, this 24th day of July, 1872, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
