'DRAPERY PIN HOOK PACKAGE AND HOLDER Filed June 24, 1965 I 'l Mum Melee/5 44. 544rz 5 lemma/ag United States Patent 3,347,360 DRAPERY PIN HOOK PACKAGE AND HOLDER Morris A. Saltz, 1083 S. Ogden Drive, Los Angeles, Calif. 90019 Filed June 24, 1965, Ser. N0. 466,631 9 Claims. (Cl. 206-56) ABSTRACT on THE DISCLOSURE A package including a stack of drapery pin hooks held in aligned and oriented relation by a holder of sheet material having a strip portion passing through the aligned eyes of the hooks and also having a main body portion lying alongside aligned arm portions or pin portions of the hooks.
The present invention relates to drapery hook packages, and more particularly to packages of hooks adapted to be used in devices for inserting the hooks in drapes, curtains, and the like, to be suspended by the hooks from appropriate hanger supports.
An object of the invention is to provide an improved drapery pin hook package and holder in which the drapery pin hooks are held and maintained properly in aligned or stacked relation, with all of the pin hooks oriented in the same direction.
Another object of the invention is to provide a drapery pin hook package and holder that will hold the hooks properly aligned and in stacked relation for shipment and storage, and which facilitates the mounting of the stacked hooks in an apparatus for dispensing and inserting the pin hooks in drapery, and the like.
A further object of the invention is to provide a drapery pin hook package and holder of the type above described, in which the holder is readily released and removed from the hooks after their assembly in the pin inserting apparatus.
An additional object of the invention is to provide. a drapery pin hook package and holder of the type above described, in which the holder for the hooks is inexpensive to manufacture and on which the hooks can be readily assembled in aligned relation.
This invention possesses many other advantages, and has other objects which may be made more clearly apparent from a consideration of several forms in which it may be embodied. Such forms are shown in the drawings accompanying and forming part of the present specification. These forms will now be described in detail for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention; but it is to be understood that such detailed description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, since the scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.
Referring to the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a front elevational view of one form of drapery pin hook package and holder embodying the invention;
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the assembly disclosed in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged section taken on FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is an isometric projection of the holder and aligner of FIGS. 1 to 3 on which the drapery pin hooks are mounted;
FIG. 5 is a front elevational view of another embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 6 is an enlarged section taken along the line 66 on FIG. 5.
In the forms of invention illustrated in the drawings, drapery hook packages and holders are disclosed that along the line 3--3 'ice each include a main body member A or B of sheet mate-' rial on which a stack of drapery pin hooks C are to be assembled and retained in aligned and stacked relation.
As specifically shown, each drapery hook C includes a pm portion 10 terminating in a forward point 11, the other end of the pin portion merging into a curved web 12, which, in turn, merges into an inner arm 13 extending generally parallel to the pin portion. The outer portion 14 of the inner arm is bent outwardly at an angle, being inclined in a forward direction away from the pin portion 10. This bent arm portion, in turn, merges into a rear- Wardly and outwardly bent portion 15 of an outer arm 16, the rearward projecting portion 17 of which is generally parallel to the inner arm 13 of the hook itself. In effect, the two inclined inner and outer arm portions 14, 15 form a general V-shape for appropriate suspension of the drapery hook from a suitable hanger (not shown), in a known manner. The inner arm portion 18 adjacent to the curved web 12 is spaced from the pin portion 10 to provide an opening or eye 20, which, as described hereinbelow, is utilized in retaining the hooks C adjacent to each other and properly oriented.
In the form of invention disclosed in FIGS. 1 to 4, inclusive, the holder A for the hooks includes an elongate body 30 of severable or tearable sheet material, such as relatively Stiff paper, plastic, and the like. This body has an inner portion 31 and an outer portion 32 bent at an obtuse angle with respect to the inner body portion along a longitudinal bend line 33 parallel to the upper and lower edges of the body. The inner body portion 31 has a width conforming to the length of the inner portion 13a of the inner arm of the drapery pin hook, and its outer portion 32 has a width conforming to the length of the outer portion 14 of the inner arm of the drapery pin hook, the angle between the inner and outer body portions 31, 32 being generally the same as the angle between the inner and outer portions 13a, 14 of the inner arm 13 of the drapery pin hook.
The holder or carrier body also includes an aligning and retaining strip 35 separated from the inner body portion 31 by a longitudinal slot or slit 36 parallel to the upper and lower edges of the body, this slit opening through one end 37 of the bod but being closed at the opposite end by an integral stop portion 38 of the body. The width of the aligning and retaining strip 35 conforms to the length of the space or eye 20 between the inner portion 18 of the inner arm adjacent to the curved web 12 and the pin portion 10, so that the strip can slip readily through the eye portions 20 of all of the juxtaposed drapery pin hooks.
In assembling a stack of drapery pin hooks C on the holder A illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 4, they are appropriately oriented with respect to one another, such that all of their pin portions 10 and points 11 face in the same direction. The inner and outer body portions 31, 32 are then slipped through the large space between the inner and outer hook arms 13, 16 while the aligning and retaining strip 35 is inserted through the eyes 20 of the aligned hooks until an end hook C engages the'stop portion 38 provided adjacent one end of the body by terminating the slot or slit 36 short of such end, as illustrated most clearly in FIGS. 1 and 4. Thus, the aligning and retaining strip 35 extends through all of the eyes 20, and the inner body portion 31 and outer body portion 32 bent with respect thereto extend adjacent to the inner portion 13a and outer portion 14of the inner arm 13 of each hook, with the outer edge 39 of the outer body portion 32 disposed adjacent to the apex of the V formed between the outer portion of the inner arm 13 and the adjacent outer arm 16 of the pin hook, and with the inner edge 40 of the inner body portion 31 at the slit 36 engaging the inclined hook portion 18. The free end 41 of the strip can then be suitably secured to the inner body portion 31 by a fastening device, such as a staple 42 disclosed in the form of invention illustrated in FIG. 5, or the free end can be bent over the end of the eye 20 of the adjacent terminal drapery pin hook, as disclosed in FIGS. 1 and 2, to prevent longitudinal removal of the hooks from the holder. Removal in the opposite direction of the stack of hooks is prevented by the stop portion 38 of the body of the holder.
The body A of sheet material retains the drapery pin hooks C oriented and in stacked relation with respect to one another. They can be stored and shipped in the condition illustrated in the drawings, with the inner body portion 31 and outer body portion 32 held snugly against the inner and outer arm portions 13, 16 of the drapery hooks, and with the aligning and retaining strip 35 held within the eyes 20 of the hooks, insuring their retention in aligned and properly oriented condition.
When the drapery pin hooks are to be used in a pin inserting apparatus, it is a simple matter to tear off the end of the body at the unslotted stop portion 38 to expose the slot 36, which will then allow the stack of hooks to be inserted in an appropriate holder or magazine of the drapery pin hook inserting machine (which can either be of the power operated or hand-held type), and the elongate body A of sheet material then pulled from the other end out of and along the stack of hooks; that is, the aligning and retaining strip 35 is pulled through the eyes 20 of the hooks and the inner and outer body portions 31, 32 are pulled along the inner and outer portions 13a, 14 of the inner arms 13 of the stack of hooks. The body member A can then be discarded since it is relatively inexpensive, being made of a suitable relatively stiff paper or sheet plastic material. The hooks C are retained in the particular dispensing and pin hook inserting device by the magazine of the latter, or by other stacking mechanisms usually found in such units.
In the form of invention illustrated in FIGS. and 6, an elongate body B of sheet material, such as paper or plastic, is provided, which has a main body portion 50 having a width substantially the same as the length of a pin portion of a drapery pin book. This main body portion merges into a lip or flange 51 bent back to a position generally parallel to the main body portion 50 to provide a groove or guideway 52 adapted to receive the forward points 11 of the hooks when the main body portion lies against the pin portions 10 of the hooks. The body includes an aligning and retaining strip 53 separated from the body by a longitudinal slit or slot 54, the aligning strip being of a width substantially the same as the length of the eye 20 parallel to the pin portion 10, so that the aligning strip can be inserted through the aligned eyes of the hooks. This slit or slot 54 opens from one end 55 of the body and terminates short of the other end of the body to provide a stop portion 56 against which an end hook C can bear.
The retaining and aligning strip at its free end 57 is inserted through a stack of hooks C, with the main body portion 50 sliding along the outer surfaces of the pin portions 10 and with the forward points 11 disposed in the groove or guideway 52, until the required number of hooks are mounted on the elongate body B of sheet material. The free end 57 of the strip can then be secured to the main body portion in any suitable manner, as through use of a staple or clip 42. The hooks C cannot become disassembled from the body B, since movement therealong in one direction is limited by the stop portion 56 and in the opposite direction by the stop element 42, in the form of the staple. The strip 53 and main body portion 50 retain the hooks in alignment and oriented with respect to one another, with the points 11 of the pin portions held within the groove or guideway 52 provided by the reversely bent lip or flange 51 in conjunction with the main body portion.
When a stack of hooks C is to be mounted in a pin inserting machine, the end portion of the body member at its stop 56 is torn off to expose the end of the slot or slit 54. The entire stack can then be inserted in the maga zine or other holder of the pin inserting machine, and the strip 53 and body portion 50 then pulled from its opposite end from the stack of hooks, the aligning strip 53 moving freely through the eyes 20 of the hooks and the main body portion 50 and lip 51 shifting along the pin portions 10 of the hooks until completely removed from the stack.
