UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH B. TUTTLE AND MICHAEL H. TU'ITLE, OF CLEBURNE, TEXAS.
DISPLAY AND CLOTHES LINE.
Application filed March 5, 1925. Serial No. 13,180.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, J osnPH B. TUT'lLE and MICHAEL H. TUTTLE, citizens of the United States, residing at Cleburne, in the county of Johnson and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Display and Clothes Line, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a combination merchant display line and clothes line.
The object of the invention is to so construct such a line that it will receive and hold fabrics, clothing or any pliable substance capable of being inserted in the links thereof without necessitating the use of additional pins or other appliances.
Another object of the invention is to form a line of this character composed of foldably connected wire links each so constructed that the ends thereof will be protected and concealed to prevent them from tearing the fabric or injuring the users hands.
Another object is to so construct a line of this character equipped with coiled spring rings arranged so as to prevent the receiving throat from being damaged during the shipment of the lines and which serves to strengthen the line at that point rendering it doubly strong. This coil spring ring construction also serves the purpose of preventing the insertion of heavy thick articles from forcing or crowding the twist of the links down to the end thereof which render the-link useless.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a portion of a line constructed in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view thereof; and
Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail elevation partly in section showing the method of connecting the links.
The line constituting this invention is composed of a plurality of links 1 each constructed of heavy wire bent intermediate its ends to form a coiled spring ring 2 and the members then twisted together as shown at 3. One member near the opposite end of the link is formed into a longitudinal obliquely disposed loop 4 the outer end of which is twisted to form an eye or ring 5 the terminal beyond said eye bein coiled to form a sleeve 8. The other end of the wire is bent inwardly, to form a loop 6 the terminal of which is bent outwardly to form a loop 7 arranged in a plane at right angles to loop 6 with the end 9 of the wire lying fiat against the adjacent wire and housed in sleeve 8 whereby it is protected and prevented from injuring the users hands or tearing articles suspended from the line. This loop 7 also operates as a stop to prevent the end of the wire from pulling out.
The links 1 are preferably constructed of galvanized medium Bessemer wire in lengths ranging from 12 to 20 inches in length and they may be made with one or more receiving loops at in each link. The line may be constructed of as many consecutive links as may be required to reach across the space desired by the user. The loop 6 at one end and the eye 2 at the other end are adapted to engage with the coop crating loops of adjacent links to connect them, a laterally deflected loop 10 is formed at the inner end of one member of loop a and forms a mouth or throat to receive and guide the fabric which is designed to be slipped in between the twisted members of the wire. The coiled spring ring 5 in the receiving throat or loop 4 serves to hold the receiving loop or point close to the main wire and prevents the use of thick fabrics from bending the receiving loop away from the main bar. The coiled spring ring 5 also prevents the receiving throat from being damaged in shipment of lines while the coiled spring 2 and the end of the link operates to strengthen the line at that point and also serves the purpose of preventing the insertion of heavy thick articles from forcing or crowding the twisted portion of the links down to the end thereof.
We claim A line of the class described composed of a plurality of flexibly connected links each comprising a piece of heavy wire bent intermediate its ends and coiled to form a spring loop, the major portion of said wire being twisted to form article clamping mem- Q ieemee be1s,sa-id membe fs having a receiving): thioet ing Withdrawn from (he sleeve Whiil'i proat one end with a coiled sgr'ug art; the tecs the end. 10 entrance thereof, one end of said Wire being In testimony that We claim the foregoing coiled to form a sleeve and the other bent as our own We have hereto affixed 0m siginwai'dly in form an attachin 100p and then natures.
