ATOMOBIE HOOD FASTENER.
Application led September 3, 1927. Serial No. 217,344.
The object of this invention .is to provide a hood fastener which operates in an improved manner, and which is also simple in construction, and neat in appearance.
The hood fastener 'mainly consist-s of a flap-bracket which is secured to the flap of the hood, a base-bracketwhich issecured to the base extension of the hood, a swing-inember attached to the base-bracket in a manner permitting itsswing-like movement in direction to and from the flap-bracket, a pullmember slidably mounted on the swing-meniber, and spring-actuated downwardly in direction towards the base-bracket, and means whereby the springv actuating the 'pull-member imparts two separate pressures, at right angles to each other in direction on the same portion of the flap-bracket.
In the attached drawings;
Fig. 1 is an elevation of the hood fastener when in 'fastened position.
Fig. 2 is aside'elevation of the same.
Fig. 3 is a sectional sidelelevation showing the hood fastener in unfastened position. y
Fig. 4 is a'sectional elevation of a modification of a portion and showing it when the hood fastener is in unfastened position.
Fig. 5 is a. sectional elevationV of the saine modification but in'fastened position. y
Fig. 6 is a sectional elevation of another modification of the'same portion and when in unfastened position. f
Fig. 7 is a sectional elevation of the modification shown in Fig. 6 but in fastened position.
Fig. 8 is a sectional elevation of yet another modification of the same portion and when in unfastened position.
Fig. Sis a sectional elevation of the modification shown in Fig, 8 but in fastened posi- Referring to the drawings, 1 is a portion of the fiap of the hood. 2 is a portion of the base extension of the hood. 3 is the flapbracket. 4 is the base-bracket. 5' is the swing-member which is attached to the basebracket by means of the link 6 and the pins 7 and which permits of a swing-like movement of the swing-member in direction to and from the flap-bracket. This linking of the swingmember divides it into a longer and a shorter portion above and below, respectively, of its pin 7. 8 is acollar secured to the longer portion, and 9 is a collar slidably mounted thereon. 10 is the pull-member and is slidable on the collar 8 and supported on the collar 9,
fasten and unfasten the hood. Part 11 has also a hook-shape portion 14 which hooks the pull-members to the flapbrackets to fasten the hood. The link 6 is of double form and embraces both sides of the-swing-member and has two bearings on each of thepins 7 .Y The shorter portion of thefswing-member lits loosely in the hole inthe base-bracket and the base extension of the hood, vand the side of the shorter portion of the swing-member nearest to the flap of the hood abuts the' side of the hole. y
By inspection of Fig. 3 it will be seen,by reason of this abutment and the linkage of the swing-member by the link 6 to the basebracket, that a lengthwise movement in upward direction imparted to the swing member causes a simultaneous and swing-like movement of the longer portion in ldirection towards the flap of the hood. The abutment in the hole serves'as a fulcrum andthe link,
by its upward movement pulls the swingmember towards the flap of the hood. By
inspection of Fig. 2 it will be seen that the ,pull-member not only imparts a pressurein downward direction through the top vof portion 15 of the flap bracket, but also another pressure in inward direction, in respect to the Yflap'to the side of the portion 15 farthesty from the flap forthe shorter portion of the swing- 'member' is fulcrumed against the side` ofthe hole in the base-bracket, and the spring 12 in sustaining the link 6 in its upward position, causes it to exert a pull on the swingmember in direction towards the flap of the hood.
Although the form of fulcruni shown in Figs. 2 and 3 has the merit of extreme simplicity, yet it has the defect of friction and wear, and Figs. 4 to 9 inclusive show modifications which are practically free of this defeet. In the modification shown in unfastened and fastened positions, in Figs. 4 and 5 respectively, the hole in thebase-bracket, or
in the base extension, a side of which served as the fnlcrum, is replaced by the link IG which is pivoted to the base-bracket and to the lower part of the swing-member. In the modilicationsimilarly shown in Figs. G and 7 the roller 17 pivoted in the base-bracket and having a rolling contact with the swing-membei', serves as the fulcrum rihe link 6 may be placed on either side of the swing-member as may be seen by inspection of Figs. 8 and 9.
Vhat I claim is:
i l. In a hood fastener, a base-bracket secured to kthe base extension of the hood, a swing-member attached to the base bracket in a manner permitting a swing-like movement of theswing-men'iber,A a link having one of Y its ends pivoted to the base-bracket and its other end pivoted to the swing-member intermediate its ends and dividing the swing-inember into a longer and a shorter portion, and means cooperating with the said shorter portion whereby a movement lengthwise in one direction, imparted to the swing-member causes a simultaneousmovement, swing-likeY in one direction, ofthe said longer portion.
2. In a hood fastener, a base-bracket sccured to the base extension of the hood, a swing-member attached to the base-bracket in a. manner permitting a swing-like movement of the swing-member, a link having one of its ends pivoted to the base-bracket and its other end pivoted to the swing-member intermediate its ends and dividing the swing-member into a longer and a shorter portion and a member pivoted to the base-bracket and cooperating with the said shorter portion whereby a movement, lengthwise in one direction, imparted to the swing-member causes a simultaneous movement, swing-like in one direction, of the said longer portion.
