DAVID HUNTER AND GEORGE W. ENTWISTLE, OF DES MOINES, IOWA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES-PINS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 176,?88, dated May 2, 1876; application filed I June 19, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, DAVID HUNTER and GEORGE W. ENTWISTLE, of Des Moines, in the county of Polk and State of Iowa, have invented an Improved Clothes-Pin, of which the following is a specification:
The object of our invention is to improve wooden clothes-pins. It consists in the form and manner of attaching a metal band at $16 lbase of the handle, as hereinafter fullyset ort a 'Figure 1 of our drawing is a perspective view, illustrating our improved clothes-pin.
.a represents the. handle or head. I) b are heads of wood turned on each end of the handle, and serve to prevent the pin from slipping through the hand in the act of pressing the pin upon a line to clamp and fasten clothing. or are the elastic prongs of the pin, formed solid with the head a, and separated and shaped to form a cavity, d, in a common way. f represents our metal band, secured around the base of the head a to prevent the pin from splitting, and thereby adapt it to be pressed-harder upon the clothing and line, and to hold articles-more securely to the line.
Fig. 2 illustrates the form of our metal band f.
g g are projections designed to be pressed into the slot of the pin, terminating at the base of the head a, as a means of fastening and retaining the ring f in its place.
Fig. 3 is a modification of our ring, in which a cross-bar, m, in the center of the ring h, is substituted for the projections 9 shown in Fig. 2.
We are aware that a groove has been formed in the wood around the base of the head of a clothes-pin, and a metal band embedded therein io prevent the pin from splitting; but we claim that our form of band and manner of fastening is new and advantageous,
-and that our improved band can be readily applied without torming a groove in the wood to retain it.
We claim as our invention- The metal band f, having the projections g g, in combination with a bifurcated wooden clothes-pin, a, b c d, in the manner and for the purposes specified.
DAVID HUNTER. GEORGE W. ENTWISTLE.
