FASTENING DEVICE.
Application filed February 24, 1525.
My invention relates to an improved fastening dev'ce more particularly for use with hair dr ing attachments and; the like, and. its objects are the provision of a device which, adapted tobe positively l cited upon the hair and which will firmly gripthe hair and be held. in place thereon, and a simple and improved structure that may be economically produced, one, that may be and removed and. which will not cause any discomfort when in place.
The invention is illustrated in the eompa-nying drawings, in which:
1 Figure l is a front elevational view of a device, embodying the invention;
Figure 2 is a top plan view t the showing the endv of a hair piece. attached thereto;
Figure 3 is a back or rear elemtional view;
Figure l isaa transverse section. on. line a of Figure 3;
igure is a transverse section on line 5-5 015 Figure 3, and
Figure 6 is a front elevational view showing the use of he device of my pres,- ent invention.
The embodiment of the. invention shown 39 con iprises base or bar 5 and a prong (S pivoted at 7 in the: bifurcated end 8 of a block 9 rigidly or fixedly secured to the back of the bar 5.
The bar 5, prong 6 and block 7 may be of celluloid, tortoise or other suitable material and they may, of course, be colored to match or harmonize with the hair with which the device is to be used. The rigid attaclnnent of the block 9 to the baol-z of the bar 5 may be through rivets l2 and the pivot may comprise a pin inserted through the bifurcated ends of the block 9 and passing loosely through the pivoted end of the prong 6.
The bar 5, may be curved to conform generally to the head. The bar 5 is shown as converging in opposite directions from the portion to which the block 9 is secured. One reduced end is turned laterally at substantially right angles at H and notched at 15 to form a latch or hook into engagement with which the free end of the prong 6 is adapted to be sprung, the catch interlocking with the prong and locking the same closed so that when the attachment is placed upon the head and the clasp closed,
Serial Ito. 10,998.
the device will be firmly and positively secured or clamped to the users hair and held against accidental displacement.
In use, the device is inserted up into the hair with the back side presented to the head and the prong opened to. permit a mass of hair strands to 39.88 between the back of the bar 5 and prong 6,. The prong (3 is then swung into closed position and the end thereoi is sprung up over the heel: l5 and into engagement therewith whereupon the strands of hair are clamped between the bar 5 andprongG.
Secured to the back or rear surface of he bar 5 and underlying the prong 6 is rip of anti-slip substance or material uch as rubber, rubber fabric, fabric or The strip 20 may be glued or at 20s t otherwise firmly secured upon the back of the bar 5 and it extends longitudinally of the prong and opposite thereto. hen the prong is closed upon the strands of hair, Said strands are clamped against the strip 2i) and between said, strip 20 and the prong o. The st ip 20, because of its yieldable a1 ll anti-slip character, binds the strands oi hair firmly andv positively and prevents accidental slipping of the device after it is attached to. the hair.
While the de ice may be employed wherever found desirable, it is particularly :ulapted for use with hair dressing attachments of the type shown and described in my co-pending application Serial No. 9,397, tiled February 16th, 19 5. The spacing of the blocl; 9 and point or pivoting oi the 6 from the end of the bar 5 provi Lee a space tor transversely arranged rows of apertures 2 lthrough which wetted end oi the hair piece as may be secured to the bar 5, as by stitching 27 passing through the aoertures 24 and stitched to the we'l ted end of the hair piece or "to the stitches wetting the strands of hair of said end together. Rearwardly oi' the apertures 24's, the bar 5 has a transversely elongated slot 28 through which a band connecting two fastening devices of this sort in the manner of my above referred to applica tion i'nay be looped, doubled back and secured as by stitching or in any other suitable manner, as shown in Fig. 6.
The hooked end of the bar 5 is recurved at 30 and the free end of the prong 6 which prong is shown as being curved to cont rm to the back of the bar 5 is also preferably recurved at 32. This removes the free end of the prong 6 from possible pricking engagement with the head when the device is in place thereon and avoids any discomfort to the head at this end. The spacing of the block 9 from the opposite end inaddition to providing a space for the slot 28 and apertures 24, performs the additional function of removing the block and pivoted end of the prong 6 from the end of the bar, thereby eliminating any pressure or discomfort on the head.
lVhile this, of course, may be varied, the block 9 is preferably mounted at an angle, as shown to incline the prong 6 normally downwardly slightly so that upon springing the prong into the hook 15, this downward inclination and the slight bind produced at the pivot 7 will hold the prong 6 firmly in locked position.
While I have shown and described the anti-slip strip 20 as being secured to the base member 5 it is to be understood that this gripping surface may be on the prong instead or cooperating gripping surfaces of this sort may be provided on both the base member 5 and on the prong 6.
The two transverse rows of apertures 24 are preferably arranged diagonally or obliquely with reference to the width of that portion of the bar or base member 5 through which they open. This spreads the ends of the strands of hair attached thereto longitudinally of the fastening device and facilitates distributing and arranging the hair piece 26 up in the desired position.
1. As an article of manufacture, a fastening device comprising, a base member having a catch at one end and slotted transversely at its opposite end for attachment to a fastening device, a prong swingable into and out of engagement with said catch, said prong having a base attached to the back of said base member and spaced from the slotted end thereof and means between the base member slot and the prong base for attaching a hair piece to said base member.
2. As an article of manufacture, a fastening device comprising, a base member having a catch at one end and slotted transversely at its opposite end for the attachment of a fastening device to the base member, a prong swinga-ble into and out of engagement with said catch, said prong having a base attached to the back of said base member and spaced from the slotted end thereof.
3. I11 combination, a fastening device hav ing a base member, said base member having a generally transverse row of apertures, said row of apertures being obliquely disposed in a transx erse direction with respect to said base member and adapted for attaching a hair piece to said base member.
4. As an article of manufacture, a barrette comprising a base member having a catch at one end, means at the opposite end for attachment to a fastening device, a prong attached to said base member and swingable into and out of engagement with the catch, the attachment of said prong to said base member being spaced from the fastening means attachment end of the base member to provide a hair piece attaching portion between the fastening device attachment and the prong attachment to said base member.
In witness whereof, I hereunto subscribe my name this 21st day of February, 1925.
