MIKE J". A. CARROLL, OF BODFISH, CALIFORNIA.
CLASP.
To all 'wJzo m it may concern:
Be it known that I, MIKE J. A. CARROLL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Bodfish, Kern County, State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Clasps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its object means for frictionally engaging a piece of cloth or a like article or surface whereby the same is held securely without damaging its surface.
A further object is a clasp for holding an article of clothing in preadjusted position.
Other objects appear in the drawings and specification which follow.
Referring to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front view of my clamp as employed on a garter, a fragmentary portion of the garter only being shown.
Fig. 2 is similar to Fig. 1 and at right angles thereto with certain of the parts shown in cross-section and with the clasp opened out but in position readily to engage a portion of the clothing.
Fig. 3 is similar to Fig. 2 except that the clasp has been closed and secured to the article of clothing.
Fig. 4 is similar to Fig. 1 with one of the leaves of the clasp removed toshow the resilient engaging members. Throughout the figures similar numerals refer to identical parts.
A suspension member is shown at 1 having a tongue 2 adapted to engage the link 3 from which the double sides are suspended. These are formed primarily of the leaves 4 and 5, and from the side of each of these leaves project the holding elements as 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, 11 respectively. From these holding members resilient cross-bars, preferably of rubber, celluloid or the like are mounted with their longitudinal axes substantially at right angles to the direction of pull. These resilient cross-bars on the leaf 4 are shown at 12 and 13 and those on the leaf 5 are shown in end view at 15, 16 and the material or clothing article which they engage is shown at 14.
By referring to Fig. 3 the manner in which the article 14 is frictionally held by my clasp is shown, the leaves 4 and 5 being pressed together by the two sides 17 and 18 of the spring clamp 19. This clamp passes through the hole 20 and when the leaves are pressed together engaging the article 14, the two sides of the spring clamp are forced down over the leaves; thus holding the resilient cross-bars tightly gripping the article 14. To release the clasp the loop 19 is raised from the position of Fig. 3 through the slot 20 and if desired it may be swung to one side as shown in Fig. 2, thus releasing the leaves 4 and 5, which under the action of spring material in the head 21 fly outwards releasing the article 14.
The cross-bars are held in fixed position with their respective leaves by bending up a slotted tongue on each side of the leaf and rolling the tongue around the end of the rubber.
I claim:
1. In a clasp a pair of leaf members facingeach other, a plurality or resilient bars crossing. each of the members, a tongue struck up from the metal on each side of each leaf and gripping the ends of the respective bars.
2. A clasp including the elements set forth in claim 1,.wherein the bars are spaced apart in staggered relation whereby material clamped between the leaves is held in sinuous form by the bars.
3. A clasp including the elements set forth in claim 1, wherein the bars are of rubber and spaced apart in staggered relation whereby material clamped between the leaves is held in sinuous form by the bars.
MIKE J. A. CARROLL.
