Description
June 1937- J. A. SCOTT ET AL PROTECTIVE CLOTHESPIN Filed Aug. 14, 1936 INVENTOR 5 JAMES A.SCOTT AND BRMDWOOD B HIG6INS BY ATTORNEY Patented June 1 1937 UNITED STATES OFFICE PROTECTIVE GLOTHE SPIN Application August 14, 1936, Serial No. 96,039
2 Claims.
This invention relates to protective clothespins, and aims primarily to provide simple and eiiicient means for the protection of clothes hung to dry from the spots or stains produced by dirty or rusty clothes lines.
A still further and particular object of the invention is to provide a device of the character described which is of simple and inexpensive construction, which may be easily produced or manufactured, and which will prove thoroughly efficient in the attainment of the ends for which it is designed.
We wish it to be understood that we need not confine ourselves to all the precise details of construction set forth by way of illustration as modification and variation may be made Without departing from the spirit of the invention or exceeding the scope of the claims appended hereto.
With these objects in view, together with others which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel combination and arrangement of parts, all as will be described more fully hereinafter, illustrated in the drawing and particularly pointed out in the claims.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a side view of our invention;
Fig. 2 is a front view of the same; and
Fig. 3 is a side view of the same, showing how it is used in attaching clothes to the line.
This invention relates to the use of a protector in combination with a clothespin of the spring variety. No claim is made to the spring variety of clothespin in itself. To hold the protector in place, one end of the spring is engaged.
Referring now more particularly to the drawing I and 2 represent the two halves of a spring type clothespin, 3 is a spring. A indicates the protector, the same being formed preferably of canvas, linen or other suitable cloth or oilcloth, 5 being rectangular generally in shape, one end being suitably cut for the purpose, said end being folded over and inward a suitable distance to provide strength and being inserted under one end of the spring 3 as shown. 10
In attaching the clothes to the line, a piece of wash B is held close to and near the lower end of the protector A with one hand, and the clothespin is squeezed with the other hand, and at the same time applying the pin to the clothesline so that the protector A is folded under the leg of the pin to which it is attached and around the clothesline.
We claim:
1. In a device of the class described, a clothespin provided with a spring, a protector, said protector being rectangular in shape, one end 1 adapted to form an elongated tab, said tab adapted to be folded upon itself to provide strength, and said tab being engaged by said spring, substantially as described.
2. In a device of the class described, a protector, one end adapted to form a narrow length folded upon itself, in combination with a clothespin provided with a spring, said spring being the means for engaging said folded end, substantially as described.
JAMES A. SCOTT. BRAIDWOOD B. HIGGINS.
