UNITED STATES WILLIAM CHARLES CROCIZER, OE SUTTON, ENGLAND.
FASTENER FOR LOOSE SHEETS OF PAPER 0R OTHER IiTATER-IAL.
Application filed April 20, 1926, Serial No. 103,187, and in Great Britain March 6, 1925.
This invention relates to devices for securing together loose sheets of paper or other like material, and has for its object to provide a fastener which is more easily and cheaply manufactured than fasteners of a similar character which are at present in use.
The present invention consists of a fastener for loose sheets of paper or other material, comprising in combination acord, a stop, for example, a transverse tag secured to one end of aid cord, an open framework, a loop extending inwardly from the periphery to substantially the centre of such framework adapted to adjustably and detachably cooperate with the cord, and a cleat carried by said frame adapted to receive and fix the cord In order that this invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into practice, reference may be had to the appended e2;- planatory sheet of drawings, upon which Figure 1 illustrates in elevation the two parts of a fastener constructed according to the present invention.
Figure 2 illustrates the present fastener in use.
One method of carrying the invention into effect comprises a cord a to which a tag a is secured so as to lie in atransverse direction to the length of the cord. The cord is provided at its other end with a second tag a which coincides with the length of the cord, and facilitates papers being threaded upon the cord.
Adapted to be attached to a point alon the length of the cord a is a wire framework 7) of rectangular formation wherein one end 6 of the wire is threaded through a loop in the other end of the wire which constitutes the frame, and is doubled back upon one side of the framework so as to lie upon the same and in adjacency thereto, (as shown particularly in Figure 2), such that, if the said end Z) is lifted away from the side adjacent thereto, the end of the wire, due to its natural resiliency, springs back upon the said side and framework.
The free end b of the wire so formed constitutes a cleat, and it be provided ata point along its length with an indentation Z) (Fig. 2; which extends above the side of the framework situated adjacent thereto.
That side 5 of the frame which l es opposite to the one over which the maid cleat e2;- tends is preferably bent at its midpointinwardly so as to form a loop Zr which extends from the periphery of the framework to substantially the centre of the same.
The operation of the device is as follows .l hen the papers 0 have been threaded upon the cord (4 and are held against the transverse tag (4 secured to one end thereof, the cord is slipped into the loop Z9 until the cord is situated substantially at the Centre of the said framework. The cord is thereafter sprung under the cleat formed by free end Z) of the wire, and is held, due to the natural resiliency of the same, fixed in that position.
What lclaim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A fastener for loose sheets of paper or other material, comprising in combination a cord, an abutment provided at one end of said cord, an open wire framework, an inwardly directed U-shaped part of said wire framework adapted to en age the cord, and
a folded part of said wire framework adapted to serve as a cleat for the cord.
2. A astener for loose sheets of paper or other material, comprising in combination a cord, an abutment provided at one end of said cord, an open frame bent from a s ngle length of wire and having a loop at one eX- tremity of the wire, a folded portion of the wire engaging said loop and adapted to serve as cleat, and an inwardly directed U-shaped formation on said wire adapted to adjust ably and detachably cooperate with the cord.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
l VILLIAM CHARLES CROGKER.
