GEORGE W. MOGILL, on NEW YORK, 1v.
TAG AND TAG-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 296,766, dated April 15, 1884.
Application filed September -21, 1881.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. MoGILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at thecity of New York, in the county of New York and- State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Tag and Fastener; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact de scription of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The object of this invention is the produc tion of a price ticket or tag provided with a metal fastening, by means of which the ticket or tag may be readily attached to cloths and similar articles.
The metal fastener is made, preferably, of round or cylindrical wire; but that part of it which constitutes the head may be flattened, so as to form a broad flat head, or the wire "throughout its entire length may be slightly flattened, but the legs or shanks are preferably left round and pin shaped. The wire is first bent into the form of astaple, as shown in Fig. 2 of the accompanying drawings, and the legs inserted through the ticket or tag, as also shown in said figure. The legs are then bent toward each other, so as to clamp the tag firmly in the head of the fastener, and then bent outward at right angles to the head, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4:. The .legs may be brought into close parallel contact, so they will both pass together through the same hole, as shown in Fig. 3; or they may be brought only part way toward each other, so that they will pass through two separate holes, as shown in Fig. 4. When the legs are left perfectly round, (which I regard as the preferable way,) they are pin-pointed at their extremities, and when slightly flattened, they should be so (No model.)
sharpened that they may be forced through woven fabrics without cutting or breaking the threads.
In the accompanying drawings,Figure 1 represents the under side of a tag secured in the folded head of a Tshaped fastener. the head of which has been broadly flattened. Fig. 2 represents a cross-section of the device with the staple-legs inserted through the tag, but not yet bent down. Fig. 3 represents a crosssection of the device with the staple-legs insorted through the tag and bent into T shape,
so as to secure the tag within the folded head. Fig; i represents a cross-section of the device with the staple-legs inserted through the tag and bent toward each other, so as to clamp the tag, and then bent outward at right angles to the head without being brought in paral lel contact. Fig. 5 represents a piece of wire with that portion which is to form the head flattened, leaving the ends which are to form the legs round and pin-pointed.
The legs are to be forced through the cloth or other article to be tagged, and then bent ,down, so as-to secure the ticket or tag thereto.
