UNITED. STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS E. BARROW, or MANSFIELD, OHIO.
CUFF-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.354,373, dated December 14, 1886.
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS E. BARROW, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mansfield, in the county of -Richland, State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in (JuffFastenings, of which the following is a specification, reference be ing had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention is a spring adjustable cufffastener; and it consists in the parts which will be hereinafter described, apd pointed out in the claims. A
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a central longitudinal section, showing the arrangement whereby the cuff andwristband are adjustably connected by means of my fastener. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the cuff and wristband, a portion of the fastener being shown in dotted lines, the looped end E extending out beyond the inner end of the cuff. Fig. 3 is a plan view of my improved device.
Like letters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
A represents the cuff; B, a fragment of the shirt-sleeve, and O the wristband thereof.
D represents my improved fastener. It is constructed, preferably, of resilient wire, with the parts folded on themselves and the ends rigidly securedtogether. E is a pear-shaped loop on one end thereof. The two branch wires F F are uniformly curved in a semicircular manner, so as to form substantially a series of communicating loops, G G.
The neck of that portion of the device provided with the loop G is inclined slightly outward, so as to form a jaw, G. The loop E on the opposite end is curved slightly upward, so that said loop will extend outward from the shirt-sleeve,and may be easily grasped between the thumb and finger.
H represents a cuff-button of the ordinary construction.
I is a stud passing through the two rear button-holes of the cuff and securing the same together at that point.
J is a stud in the button-holes of the wristband.
The operation of the device is as follows: The cuff-button is first passed through the button-holes of the cuff in the ordinary manner. The shank of the cuff-button is then socured in the loop G of the fastener. The cufi" is then slipped overthe hand until it is in a po sition to suit the wearer. Before, however, the cuff is started the shank of the stud J in the wristband is placed in the jaw E'of the loop E, the cuff and the fastener being moved together until the cuff is properly located. The shank of the stud J is then seated in one of the openings G, whereby the cuff is secured and held in a fixed desired position, the fastener acting as a link to connect the stud J with the cuff-button H. It will thus be seen that the cuff can be moved up and down on the wristband and readily secured in any desired position by means of the fastener, and that the parts may be easily disconnected and the cuff re moved at pleasure.
The device herein shown and reliable.
Having discovered other uses to which the device may be applied, I do not wish to limit myself in this application to the sole use thereof for cuff-holding purposes.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A cuff-fastener formed of a single piece of wire bent upon itself to form two branches lying close together in the samelongitudinal is cheap, simple,
plane, said branches being bent in semicircular curves so as to form a longitudinal series of communicating openings, the outer ends of said branches being united and formed into a loop larger than the openings in said branches, the end of the fastener opposite the united branch ends being provided with a loop larger than the body-openings, substantially as described.
2. A cuff-fastener formed of a single piece of resilient wire bent upon itself so as to form two braches, the outer ends of said branches being united and formed into a loop, the bodies of said branches lying close together in the same longitudinal plane, said branches being bent in semicircular curves seas to form a longitudinal series of communicating openings from one end thereof to the other, each end of the fastener being provided with a loop larger than the body-openings, and bent upwardly, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signaturein presence of two witnesses.
