CROCHET COTTON OR WOOL HOLDING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 12, 1921.
Application filed April 29, 1920. Serial No. 377,669.
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WINDoM H. CROWELL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Crochet Cotton or Wool Holding Device, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements 1n crochet cotton or wool'holding devices, an object of the invention being to provide a convenient means for supporting the ball of cotton or wool so that the cotton or wool is kept clean and can be drawn from the ball or roll as used.
A further object is to provide a device of the character stated which can be supported on the wrist of the user and which is made with a handle in which crochet hooks or needles can be stored when not in use.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and combinations and arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating my improved device.
Fig. 2 is a view in longitudinal section.
1 and 2 represent the two sections of a receptacle A in which a ball of cotton 3, wool, or any other material, is adapted to be inclosed. The sections 1 and 2 have screw threaded engagement as shown at 4, so that they can be readily connected or disconnected, and one or more openings 5 is provided in the section 1 through which the cotton or wool is to be fed. The openings 5 are preferably of different sizes so that the proper sized opening or outlet can be employed in accordance with the size of the thread.
The receptacle A is preferably of spherical shape so as to permit a free turning movement of the ball of cotton 3 and allow a free feeding of the cotton or thread.
A tubular handle 6 is secured to the section 1 of receptacle A, and I have illustrated a collar 7 as a means of connecting the handle with the section 1, but it is, of course, ob-
vious that the handle may be fixedly connected in any desired manner. This handle 6 constitutes a holder or receptacle for crochet hooks or needles when the latter are not in use, and a removable cover 8 is positioned on the upper end of the handle 6 to inclose the hooks or needles.
A wrist receiving ring 9 is projected through openings 10 in the upper portion of handle 6 and this ring constitutes preferably a single wire or member having overlapping ends 11 which permit an expansion and contraction of the ring, to allow it to be readily inserted over the hand and to fit any size of wrist.
In operation, the device is supported on the arm of the user with the ring 9 in position on the arm. The thread or cord12, which unwinds from the ball 3, is fed through one of the openings 5 and is drawn outwardly as used.
Extra crochet needles or hooks can be located in the handle 6 and when the device is not desired for use, all of the needles can be housed in the handle and all of the working parts will be in convenient position for use when desired.
Various slight changes might be made in the general form and arrangement of parts described without departing from the invention, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise details set forth, but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claim.
I claim:
A device of the character stated, comprising a pair of hollow hemispherical sections adapted to be fitted together to form a spherical thread receiving inclosure, said inclosure having a thread outlet therein, a hollow needle receiving handle including an open end, a removable cap closing the other end of the handle, said handle being located with its open end abutting against the exterior surface of the thread receiving inclosure, and a collar around the end of the handle maintaining the open end of the handle in engagement with the exterior surface of the thread receiving inclosure.
WIND OM HARRISON CROWELL.
