IMPROVEMENT IN BUDDlNG-CLASPS.
application filed To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, IsAAo B. Cor'rRELL, of Bridgeville, in the county of Sussex and State of Delaware, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bud-Clasps; and do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in a clasp for holding buds in fruit-trees, formed of a single piece of spring-wire or other suitable material, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, which forms a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the clasp 5 and Fig. 2 is a side View of the same.
My bud-clasp is made of a single piece of spring-wire or other suitable material, doubled at a suitable point to form the double jaw a, one end of the wire being bent around, forming the single jaw 1), parallel with the first. The other end is continued and bent downward and then upward, forming a handle, d, after which it passes around to the opposite side, where it again turns downward, and is bent inward and upward, forming the other handle, d. The end of the wire is then bent over between the jaws a b, forming a third jaw, f. The bud is held between the jaws a b on one side, and the jaw f on the other, and by pressing inward on the handles (1 d the jaws are released from the bud.
The clasp is to be used in place of tying with bark or strings, as now generally practiced, and gives a uniform pressure, so that there is no fear-from improper tying; nor 1s there any cutting away in taking them from the trees.
I am aware that clothes-pins have been made of one piece of wire, so bent as to form a double jaw and a clamping-arm; but the clamping parts, being located at one extremity of the implement, would, by their gravity, cramp and misplace the parts grasped, which would be destructive to the adherence and growth of the bud. Such, therefore, I do not claim; but
What I do claim is As a new article of manufacture, a bud-clasp ISAAC B. GOTTRELL. In presence'of- ALEX. BALL, NEwELL BALL.
