HOSE SUPPORTER.
Application filed May 31,
'To all whom it may concern:
' 'Be it known that I, VV'iLLIAMD. FUanY, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hose Supporters, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates generally to hosesupporters, and more particularly to hose engaging clasps utilized in connection with hose supporters of various natures, w'foremost and general object beingthe provision of a clasp'which will avoid'certain "known disadvantages to which'those clasps now in use are subject.
Clasps for supporting hose commonly in 'clude a button and ,a loop, the latter having an elongated button receiving channel closed at its outer end, and the inner end of which communicates with a comparatively wide button entering opening. My improved clasp embodies the samefparts, but contemplates a somewhat difierent construction of each part and a somewhat diiferent coaction thereof in the effective position, the diderence in structure of the parts having for its object. more simple economical manufacture among other things and the difference in the coaction of the parts having for its object to avoid frequent tearing of the hose by dis tributing the strain which in the ordinary claspis concentrated at a single point.
The usual hose clasp embodies a loop formed of sheet metal and involving in its production a number of operations resulting in a shaped final structure and the outer end of whose button receiving channel is closed and receives thereagainst the outer end of the button so that as frequent test has shown the point ofstrain upona garment engaged by the clasp is concentrated between the outer end of the button and the outer end of the button receiving channel. Moreover the button in the most commonly known and used device which is attached to the button carrying web a molded prod- .uct involving in its manufacture certain costly operations which'lseek to avoid and ne ces'sitating. more or less expensive attaching means which my invention avoids.
In the accompanying drawingwhich illustrates my"pres ent invention and'forms a part of this specification,
Figure 1 is a front view illustrating the practical application of my invention,
Figure 2 is a perspective view of my 1m- 1923. -Serial No. 642,593.
provedclasp showing the parts in elfective position,
Figure 3 is a similar view illustrating the clasp in engagement with a section of hose,
Figure 4: is a vertical longitudinal sec-- tion taken centrally through the clasp,
Figure 5 is a detail perspective view showing the parts of the'clasp in detached relation, and
Figure 6 is a front elevation illustrating a slightly modified form.
Referring now 'to these figures :I .ihave shown the clasps in Figureileas' supported bv tapes 10, for engagementwithhose.11, the clasps being generallyindicated'at"12, but it quite obvious that'the clasps may be utilized'with various other means forming hose supporters as a whole of various diiferent types other than that'shown.
The clasp constituting my invention and generally indicated at 12 inFigure 1 is composed of parts best seen in Figure 5, including a button 13, button holding plate 1 1 and button engaging loop 15, the latter according to my invention being formed of wire, preferably steel wire having suiiicient rigidity to retain its given shape and having outer spaced parallel extensions 16 forming therebetw'een a button receiving channel 17, the extreme outer portions of theseside er;- tensions being bent upwardly at right angles thereto in the form of an arch 18 so that the outer end ofthe button receiving channel 17 is thus open.
The inner ends of the extensions 16j0in the spaced apart sides 19'of the loop 15 by inclined portions 20 which serve to guide the button 13 and the button entering opening between the loop sides 19 intothe button receiving channel 17, the inner ends of the loop sides 19 being bent at right angles toward one another and intoabutting relation to form a connecting bar 21.
Thus by means of'the connecting'bar 21fat the rear or inner end of the loop .15,'.the lat ter may be connected to OllG'SldQ'IOfffllfiiQP- ally elongated tab or strap receivingloop'QQ by means of a tubular" shackle 23 which thus flexibly supports the loop ,15 of the fclasp with respect to 11118613313101 tab receiving loop 22, and around which :shackle may be extended the inner end of 1 the button -:.sup porting web 24 "whose "outer "portion has .a pocket 25 receiving the button holding plate 1 1.
The button 13 as proposed by my inventhev button.
.tion is preferably of rectangular form with square cut ends and longitudinally grooved sides 26 so that it is obvious that the button thus formed may consist simply of a cut off section of an elongated strip having grooved sides so as to avoid the necessity of molding each button separately and thereby greatly reduce the cost of production.
It is the usual practice to secure buttons by forcing the same on to headed studs upstanding from the button attaching plates, but in view of the fact that at neither end my improved button comes into actual clasping relation with the hose I am thereby enabled to attach the button in a more economical manner by the provision of plate 14 having central longitudinally alined lugs 27 which are integral therewith and spaced apart a distance equal to the length of the button 13, and which taper to upper or outer pointed ends the latter of which may be bent into and embedded within opposite ends of the button 13 so as to rigidly and effectively hold the button in place upon the outer por tion of the web 24 through one side of the pocket 25 of which it is to be understood that the button attaching lugs or spurs 27 are extended.
The button 13 is of such width that the space or distance between the bases of its side grooves 26, into which the parallel extensions 16 of the loop 15 upon opposite sides of the button receiving channel 17 are received, is but slightly less than the width of the button receiving channel of the loop, so as to clasp the hose at spaced points between the button sides and the extensions 16, leaving that. portion of the hose lying between its engaged portions free to yield with respect to the clasp whereby the strain will be distributed and clearly prevented from concentrating at any particular point, for instance at the outer end of the loop, which is a distinct disadvantage by virtue of the fact that it so frequently tears or otherwise breaks the hose at this particular clasping point, as seen most clearly by a comparison of Figures 2 and 3.
Not only does the loop 15, constructed as described constitute a more simple inexpensive loop than those now commonly made of sheet metal, but its wire construction admits of much more ready provision for an open space at the outer end of the button receiving channel. f
In Figure 6 I have shown a slight modification in respect to the particular shape of The button as shown in this figure may have parallel side grooves and still be graduallyv enlarged toward its outer end as indicated at 13 with the object in View of clasping hose with a greater holding power, the remaining portions of the clasp shown as a whole in Figure 6 being the same as those previously described in connection with Figures 1 to 5 inclusive.
I claim:
1. A clasp for hose supporters including a button receiving loop, a button to enter and coact with said loop, a button supporting web, and a button attaching plate within the outer portion of theweb, having spaced upstanding spurs between which the button is endwise seated, said spurs having upper deflected ends projecting into and embedded within the ends of the button. j
2. A clasp for garment supporters including a button receiving loop and a button to enter andcoact with said loop, said button being generally of rectangular form, having square cut ends and parallel grooves in its opposite sides, the'said loop having spaced parallel portions forming between them a button receiving channel and adapted to enter the grooves of the button and having its outer end, at the outer end of the channel, offset from contact with the outer square end of the button. 7 l
3. A clasp for hose supporters including a button,'and a loop having an "elongated but- .ton receiving channel, the sides 10f which coact with the sides of the button, and the outer end of which is open for the freely yielding movements of that portion of a garment between the portions thereof engaged by the sides of the button and the Tides of the button receiving channel of the oop. y
4. A clasp for hose supporters including a loop having a'button receivingopening and parallel side portions forming a button re ceiving channeltherebetween and the outer ends of which are deflected to form. a connecting arch and button abutment leaving-- the outer end of the button receiving channel open, and abutton to enter the loop, said button being movable in the channel of theloop and engageable with the said abutment arch to limit itsoutward movement in thechannel.
