OV R LL HARDWAR Application filed November 5 1928. Serial No. 672,750.
To all whom itmag concern;
Be it known that FREDERICK N. Ross, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pontiac, in the county'of Oakland and State of Michigan, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in Overall Hardware, of which the following is aspecification.
This invention relates to overall hardware, and has for its object to provide imslides of wire.
proved art buckles and loops for overall the loop provided with pointed prongs."
Here the corrugated bar stock strengthens and reinforces the pointed prongs, as will be more fully described hereinafter.
In the drawings: p Fig. 1 is an elevational view showing the lower portion of an overall Suspender and eirhibiting my improved metal loop and s ide.
Fig. :2 is a vertical section taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1. l
, Fig. 3 shows how the ,button requires to be twisted in order to escape from the loop. Fig.- 4 shows the constructionof the loop where the adjustment-of the length of the strap is made positive and by means of the same member which engages the button; the latter device is ordinarily called a buckle for a childs overalls.
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 55 of a designates/a portion of the overalls to which is riveted ametal button b. The construction of the loop a is different from v the ordinary sheet metal loop used on garters or similar purposes, or the wire loops 'that are used on similar articles. The metal is punched out in two separate places, a T punch being taken at d and an elongated slot punching at 6. This gives an intervening crow bar f. This completely separates the metal button from the cloth webbing g of the strap. Hence, the button does not abrade thewebbing and is constricted in a much smaller slot than would be the case where the webbing and the substantially the same direction.
button pass through the same slot. It requires considerable twisting of the button, as plainly is evident in Fig. 3, in order to allow the button to escape. Consequently, the button is much more securely held in the loop than is the case with the ordinary loop construction. This is quite essential with overall suspenders, as obviously the strap is not always under tension as is the case with garters. Hence, when one bends or slouches down in a chair, very often all tension is very easily escape through the large slot used at the'top of the loop.
These loops and the slides 72. are ordinarily made of wire. However, one of the important features of my invention is that I conrelieved on the strap and the button can" struct these of corrugated stamped bar stock in which the entire article is punched and formed out. This makes a very much improved piece of hardware from an art standpoint, over the wire constructions of the prior art, or over the ordinary stamped metal loops and slides. The corrugated bar stock permits of the use of lighter gauge metal, and still attains the strength that is requisite. Furthermore, it makes a much improved appearance. The edges are turned in and this is very advantageous, especially with the slide as this forms a sharp line or angle contact that is calculated to dig into the straps as is clearly evident in Fig. 2, and therebymore securely holds the slide from slipping by reason of establishing sharp angles in the strap. In order to carry out this plan of establishing sharp angles in the strap to prevent the slide slipping, the corrugation of the center bar of the slide designated 7' is reversed.
In the slide shown in Fig. 4, one of the I center bars a is reversed for the same purpose. This slide is one coupled up withmy improved loop. This is ordinarily known as the childs buckle for a childs overalls, and the slide is further provided with prongs is which are struck out of the stock of the center corrugated bar which is not reversed. These prongs are directed inwardly, as a sort of continuation of. the are on which the bar is corrugated. This very materially strengthens the prongs for the reason that the prongs and stock of the bar to' which it is attached are directed in Hence,
harmony of curve and any stress tending to bend the prong is directed along the length of the prong and the stock which supports it.
In overall hardware, it will be apparent from an examination of the drawings, that tion of the stock very nicely harmonizes with the relatively short radii curves that are apparent especially in the button loop, as Wlll be seen from examining Fig. 1. There is nothing ornate about the design, but this harmonizing of the cross section with the relatively short radii of the button loop givesan artistic harmony which appeals-to the esthetic sense. As has often times been remarked, some of the, most appealing designs are those which are emphatically simple, yet possess such aproportion as to make a striking appeal.
It will be noticed that the T slot d which is also referred to as the button slot, has the stem of the I tapered. This serves to wedge the button neck into the button loop,-
and tends to prevent the button from escaping.
For the purpose of reference in the claims, either the slide or the loop per se may be considered a loop member, as both are provided with loops. It will therefore be taken that I refer to either member by terms of general significance, and to one specific member when I use a term of narrower significance;
What I claim is:
-1. In overall art metalhardware, a loop member comprising a stamped corrugated bar stock with prongs stamped out of one of the bars and projecting at an angle which forms an approximate continuation of the arc of the corrugation for the purpose of strengthening the prongs.
2. In overall art metal hardware, a member constructed of open corrugated bar stock with the outline frame having the convexity of the corrugation on the face of the loop while the center cross bar has the open concavity of the corrugation on the face of the loop, for the purpose specified.
3. In overall art metal hardware, a loop member in the form of a single unit stamping of corrugated bar stock with the outline frame having a convexity of the cdrrugation on the face of the loop and the center cross bar having the open concavity of the corrugation on the face of the loop,
for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereofhe has affixed his signature.
' FREDERICK N. ROSS.
