HARRY C. GOODRICH, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SNAP-HooKs.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 167,399, dated September 7, 1875; application led June 4, 1875.
.To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY C. GOODEICH, of Chicago, Cook county, State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Snap Hooks, of which the following is a full description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in Which- Figure l is a plan; Fig. 2, a side elevation. Figs. 3, 4, 5, and 6 are variations.
Myinvention consists in constructin ga snaphook from asingle piece ofwire or other suitable metal, adapted to receive a strap at 011e end, and so formed that it can be secured to a ring v by pulling, and be removed in the same manner, as more fully hereinafter described.
It will be seen that the hook can be so made that it can be secured to a ring by pushing, and be removed in the same way-the hook in both cases being both secured to and detached from its ring by movements in the same direction, and not in opposite directions.
In the drawings, A represents one of my snap-hooks as I propose usually to make them. It is formed of a single piece of wire bent into the form shown by Figs. l and 2. The ends l) o overlap each other, as shown. The remaining portion a a is single. The hook being in the position shown in Fig. 1, the overlapping ends are in a vertical plane, which is the most desirable form. The end d ofthe part b is turned up. At e the two parts b c are in contact, or nearly so, but they may be a little distance apart a portion of the way from A e to d, as shown, to facilitate insertion and removal. B is a strap, suitably secured to A.
The hook can be secured to a ring by catching the point cl over the ring, and then, pull- .in exactly the same way that it was inserted.
This hook can be used for many purposes. It should be made of steel or other metal having suitable spring.
In Figs. 3 and 4 is shown a variation which may be used. Fig. 5 shows another variation, which form will be convenient in some cases. Fig. 6 shows a variation permi ttin g the insertion and removal of the hook by pushing, instead of pulling; but all operate on the same principle, the only diEereuce between the form shown in Fig. l and that in Fig. 3 being that the part o is carried around under a.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows:
A snap-hook made of a continuous piece of spring-Wire bent into form, as described, so that the ends pass each other in parallel planes, and having the outer end deflected to facilitate the attachment of a ring, substantially as specified.
HARRY C. GOODRICH.
