KNITTING PIN I Filed June 15, 193:5
Patented Jan. 29, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFI KNITTING rm Edward D. Davis, Chicago, 111., assignor to The Boye Needle Company, tion of Illinois Chicago, Ill., a corpora- Application June 15, 1933, Serial No. 675,995 3 Claims. (01. (iii-11'!) ting pin having non-resilient or inert body portions in combination withrigid or resilient body portions adapted to maintain a predetermined curvature or shape. .Qther specific objects and advantages will appear as the specification proceeds.
The invention is illustrated, in a preferred embodiment, by the accompanying drawing, in which- Fig. 1 is a plan view of the knitting pin embodying my invention; Fig. 2, an enlarged broken plan view of a portion of the pin shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 3, a plan view of a modified form of knitting pin embodying my invention; and Fig. 4, a broken side view of a portion of the knitting pin shown in Fig. 3.
In the illustration given in Figs. 1 and 2, 10 designates a pair of knitting points which may be or any suitable construction. The points are preferably rigid and are provided at their rear with hollow portions adapted to receive portions of the knitting pin body. v
The knitting pin body comprises relative short lengths of non-resilient or inert material 11 and a curved resilient or rigid body portion 12. In the illustration given, the body portions 11 and 12 are connected by metal-sleeves 13.
The limp-or non-resilient strips 11 may comprise cord, tape, thread, metal chains or other suitable material. The strips may be secured to the points 10 and to the metal sleeves 13 by swaging, soldering, or other suitable means.
In the illustration given in Fig. 2, the curved form strip 12 consists of a metal cable of well known construction having an inner resilient wire (not shown) covered with spiral strands. of wire. Other suitable forms of cable may, of course, be employed.
In the form of the invention illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, the body portion 12 serves as a support I for the work while,.at the same time, the inert strips 11 enable the points 10 to be handledwith ease and facility during the knitting operation. Heretofore, it has been diflicult' to avoid the formation of burrs or projections or breakage at the place where the cable is connected to the point, and the burrs caused by the twisting of the cable tend to tear the threads. with the form of knitting pin disclosed, the flexible strips 11 relieve the strain upon the connections with the points and thus eliminate this disadvantage. At the same time, the body 12 preserves the correct curvature desired so that the stitches may be slipped thereon in proper spaced relation.
In the modified form illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4, the body of the pin-mainly consists of flexible non-resilient strips 14 of chain, cord, tape, etc., the strips being connected or stiffened by a short curved sleeve 15. The points 10 may be curved slightly at the point 10 as shown more clearly in Fig. 4.
The stifiener or sleeve 15 is preferably centrally located betweenthe strips 14 and provides a slightly curved form for the stitches. Itmarks the dividing line between the two halves of the knitting pin, and enables the knitter to maintain the workin the desired position on the pin.
' In addition, the member 15 tends to drop into the lap and to maintain the inert body in a fully extended position so that the stitches may he slipped readily therealong.
I claim:
1. A knitting pin comprising a pair of points, a curved"substantially U-shaped resilient body, and flexible and inert connecting strips between the ends of said body and said points.
2. A knitting, pin comprising a pair of points and a curved body of shape-retaining material, said body and points being connected by strips oi. inert material aflording hingeportions.
3. A circular knitting pin comprising a pair oi relatively rigid points and a body or shaperetaining material, said body and points being connected by flexible hinges of inert material.
