FASTENER Foa BAGS Fil-'ed oct. 16, 1955 rPatented June 25, 1935 Naomtzts PATENT OFFICE FAs'rENER Fon BAGS Ludwig Thomas Geiger and Richard Geiger,
Vienna, Austria Application october 1s, 193s, serial No. 693,879 In Austria January 12, 1933 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a. new and improved fastener for bags, and more particularly for ladies hand-bags and reticules, of the type in which a slide adapted to travel along the one frame member or yokeembraces, in the closed position of the fastener, acl'asp member pertaining to the other yoke. For the purpose of enabling the bag to be opened this clasp member is provided with a recess with which the slide must be caused to register.' Since in the hitherto known types of such fasteners only a straight longitudinal movement of the slide is necessary for the opening of the fastener there is a danger,
after prolonged use, and in consequence of wear l5 on the guide members and of weakening of the spring of the slide, of unintentional movement of the slide into the position for opening the fastener.
The present invention provides a fastener for bags in which the above-mentioned drawback is obviated by the arrangement that the slide, in addition to its longitudinal movement, must also carry out a vertical movement by which it is capable of being brought out of the range of or out of engagement with the clasp member to permit of the openingof the fastener. Even if a certain amount of play should develop between the parts there is no danger of the slide moving of its own accord into the opening position, since it is retained automatically, by virtue of its own weight, in the closure position, and can only be transferred into the opening position by direct actuation.
A form of construction embodying the invention is shown, by way of example, in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. l shows in side elevation a hand-bag yoke fitted with the improved fastener.
Fig. 2 shows the fastener in longitudinal sec tion in the position for opening.
Fig. 3 shows the same in ltransverse section;
Fig. -4 shows the fastener in side elevation in the position of closure.
Fig. 5 shows the same in transverse section.
Referring to the drawing, the fastener according to the present invention consists in a known manner of a slide a which is guided along a rail d projecting laterally from the web portion b of the one yoke member c, and which, in the posi- 50 tion of closure, retains a clasp member f provided on the other yoke member e against the side of the web portion b. For this purpose the slide a, which fits close against both sides of the rail d, is also guided against the under side of the latter, by means of the angularly bent portions y, y' which, however, are so dimensioned that the distance between their inner edges and the web b provides a gap h. (Fig. 3) equal in width to the thickness of the clasp member f. A leaf spring i provided in the interior of the slide a bears with 5 its free ends against the slide a, and with a stud 7c provided on the middle portion thereof against the rail d, and thus presses the returned portions y, g constantly against the under side of the rail d. Within the range of movement of the slide a l0 there is cut out of the under side of the rail'd a portion which, as can be seen from the drawing, commences with an upward inclined portion Z, has an adjoining portion 'm parallel to the underside of the rail d yand approximately equal in 10 length to the slide a, and terminates' in an abrupt 1 offset portion or step n. The step 'n limits the movement of ,the slide a in the one direction, while a stop o provided at a suitable distance from the inclined portion Z of the recess in rail d determines the end position of the slide a in the 'other direction.
The mode of operation of follows:
When the slide a bears against the step n, and is thus located over the portion m of the recess, the bag can be opened, since the slide a, which is permanently forced upwards by the leaf spring z', is enabled by the presence of the recess to be lifted clear of the upper edge of the clasp member f (Fig. 3). If on the other hand the bag is to be closed it is merely necessary to bring the two yoke portions together, and to thrust the slide a towards the stop o, the slide a being thereby depressed against the action of the leaf spring i, and the inwardly bent portions g caused to embrace the clasp member f now brought into engagement with ,the gap h (Fig. 5).
What we claim is:
1. In a fastener for bags of the type in which a slide adaptedto-move in sliding 'engagement with and longitudinally of one hinged frame member is capable of being brought selectively into and out of the range of a clasp member pertaining to the other hinged frame member, a slide adapted to move, in the plane of the said first hinged frame member, not lonly longitudinally of the said frame member but also at the same time in a direction substantially at right angles thereto, an inclined guide track for the said slide disposed in the said plane, and a clasp member of uniform and unvaried shape throughout adapted to be liberated for the opening of the fastener by the movement of the said slide clear of the upper edge thereof.
the fastener is as 2. In a fastener for bags of the type in `which a slide adapted to move in sliding engagement with one hinged frame member embraces, i n the closed position of the fastener, a clasp member pertaining to the other hinged frame member, means comprising a guide rail for the said slide associated with the said first hinged frame member, inwardly returned portions on the said slide adapted to engage beneath the said rail with clearance between the inner edges thereof and the surface of the said other frame member, a
recess in the underside of the said rail compris-` minating abruptly offset portion, and spring means within the said slide adapted to keep the .f i said inwardly returned portions of the slide in f pressing contact with the underside of the said* rail.
