CLOTHESPIN Filed March 29, 1953 Patented Mar. '27, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CLOTHESPIN Application March 29, 1933, Serial No. 663,417
In Switzerland April '16, 1932 2 Claims.
This invention relates to clothespins and has for its primary object to provide a novel and improved form of clothespin.
A further object of the invention is to provide a clothespin which will be far superior to any known devices of this character and at the same time will be cheap to produce, easily manipulated in use and capable of ofiering a practical solution of the difiiculties experienced with devices of this kind.
An object of the invention is to provide a clothespin that will be of sufficient resiliency to secure clothing on a line and prevent the same from being accidentally blown off by the wind.
Furthermore the object of my invention is to produce a clothespin having a wooden grip piece and wooden limbs to clamp the clothing on the.
line.
Finally the object of the invention is to provide a clothespin that will not rust by coming in contact with wet or damp clothing.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts as illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forming a partof this specification and which will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1, a front elevation, and
Fig. 2, a side elevation of the clothespin.
The clothespin as illustrated in the drawing comprises a grip piece 10 made of wood or any suitable artificial material and. of two limbs 12, 13 made of wood or artificial material. The limbs 12, 13 of the clothespin are flexibly fixed on to the grip piece 10 by means of small springs 11. The said springs 11 are shown embedded in the parts 10, 12, 13; but they may be fixed by means of pins or the like.
assembling the elements of my invention, it is understood that I may vary from the same in minor details, not departing from the spirit of my invention, so as best to construct a practical device for the purpose intended as defined in the appended claims.
What I claim is:
1. A clothespin comprising an elongated grip piece formed at its lower end with slots, a pair The limbs are provided on their inr of clothes gripping members in alignment with the elongated grip piece said clothes gripping members being coextensive and coacting with each other to grip clothes therebetween, each clothes gripping member having a slot at its upper end, and springs having their ends fitted in the slots in the grip piece and. the clothes gripping members.
2. A clothespin comprising an elongated grip piece, a pair of clothes gripping members arranged in aligmnent with the grip piece and spaced therefrom, said clothes gripping members being coextensive and coacting with each other to grip clothes therebetween, and spring means connecting the lower end of the grip piece and the clothes gripping members to flexibly connect the said gripping members to the grip piece.
