MARKING PIN.
Application filed September 30, 1922. Serial No. 591,467.
To all whom 1'1? may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnoncn BoonN, a citizen of the United States, residing at \Vaterbury, county of New Haven, and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Marking Pins, fully described and represented in the following specification and the accompanying drawings, forming a part of the same.
This invention relates to improvements in marking pins.
Safety pins carrying a marker plate are well known in the art. These pins are used for various purposes, an important use being in laundries. The marker plate on the pin carries a number or other symbol, and the articles belonging to the same'batch of laundry are marked with the same number or symbol. A known manner of applying a marker is to secure a thin metal plate to the bow end of the pin, the plate having a flange which is bent over the bow to secure the plate thereto.
In many laundries it is customary to hang up the batches of work for sorting, by stringing the pins, carrying work, onto rods, the pins hanging from the bow end. With pins as heretofore known it has been found that inconvenience results from the pins binding or catching 011 the supporting rods. This is in part due to the edge of the marking plate catching on the top of the rod and in part to binding of the sides of the pin because of insufiicient or ununiform spacing therebetween.
It is the principal object of the present invention to provide a marking pin so constructed that the pins, carrying batches of work, can be readily strung on supporting rods without catching or bindin With this general object in View the invention consists in the combinations, details of construction and arrangements of parts which will first be described in connection with the accompanying drawing and then more particularly pointed out.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a view of the improved pin in side elevation; and
Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the pin taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1, showing the pin on a supporting rod.
Referring to the drawing, which shows a preferred construction of pin embodying the invention, 11 indicates the pointed leg of the pin and 12 the cap carrying bar. 011 the latter is a cap 13 which receives the pointed leg of the pin when the pin is closed. The pointed leg and cap carrying bar are united by a how 14 to which is attached a marker plate 15. As shown, the marker plate has a flange 16 by which the plate is secured to the pin, this flange being bent over the bow 14. In constructions embodying the invention to the best advantage, and as illustrated here, the pointed leg is disposed at an angle to the bow and the end of the flange 16 which is on the pointed leg side lies near the inner edge of he plate and also close to the angular point 17 of the pointed leg. With this construction no substantial crevice exists between the pointed leg and the metal of the marker plate. hen, therefore, fabric is threaded on the pin, it will not be caught between the plate and the pointed leg.
The invention in its entirety includes a cap carrying bar that is substantially paral lel with the pointed leg throughout a substantial part of its length. Although capa ble of various constructions, in that here illustrated, the bar 12, from the bow 14, extends ofi at a tangent to the bow, said tangent being parallel with the pointed leg 11. Near the cap end of the pin, the bar 12 is bent in toward the pointed leg for a short distance and terminates in the end portion that carries the cap. With the construction described, the pin presents a relatively wide and uniform space between the pointed leg 11 and bar 12. Consequently, when the pins are strung on a supporting rod, indicated conventionally at 18, there is no binding on the rod between the sides of the pin. It is noted further, that with the construction illustrated there is no sharp outside edge of the marking plate to come in contact with the fabric in the batch of laundry.
With a cap carrying bar extending off from the bow at a tangent, the pointed leg of the pin has the proper spring to hold it in the cap when the pin is closed.
The inside edge of the marker plate, that is, the edge between the pointed leg and the cap carrying bar, is rolled back upon itself, as shown at 19, thereby presenting a curved surface. Vith the construction described, when the pins are strung on rod 18, they present a curved contact surface to the rod and slide along the same Without catching or binding.
\Vhat I claim is:
A marking pin comprising a bow, a pointed leg, and a cap-carrying bar, the pointed leg extending from the bow at an angle thereto, the bar extending from the bow substantially tangentially thereto and,
10 for a portion of its length, substantially parallel to the pointed leg and being bent, adjacent the cap-carrying end, toward the pointed leg, and a marker plate secured to the bow, the edge of the marker plate between the pointed leg and the cap-carrying bar being rolled oyer to present a rounded surface.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand.
GEORGE BODEN.
