JACOB FELBEL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
METALLIC FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 359,671, dated March 22, 1867.
Application filed January-12, 1857.
.To all whom it may concern..-
Be it known that l, JACOB FELBEL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident ofNewYork city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inFasteners, &c., of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its main object to pro vide a simple and cheap sheet-metal fastener for use in connectionwith a fillet of tape, for the purpose of tying up legal and other papers or docu1nents,and for securing packages to be transported through the mails or otherwise; and to this main end and object my invention consists, primarily, in a fastener composed of a plate or base of sheet metal,having two sets of legs or prongs projecting upwardly there from, the prongs of each set arranged close together, and adapted to impale the ends of a strip of tape and be bent transversely of the plate and the tape, and thus secure the latter in position, as will be hereinafter more fully described, and particularly pointed out-in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a top View of a plate cut out and adapted to have the double set of prongs bent up into a condition to constitute my novel fastener. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the prongs bent up. Fig. 3 is a bottom view of the latter. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal vertical section taken at the line at a; of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a transverse vertical section taken at the line y of Fig. 2. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the fastener with one end of a piece of tape transfixed by one set of the prongs and the latter bent down transversely of the plate. Fig. 7 is a perspective View of a bundle of papers having one end of a piece of tape fastened asin thelast-mentioned figure, having the tape passed around the bundle, and showing its opposite end in position to be impaled upon the second setof prongs. Fig. 8 is a top view of the same after the impalement of the remaining end of the tape and the bending outwardly and downwardly of the last set of prongs. Fig. 9 is a perspective view of a modification of my invention.
In the several views the same parts will be found designated by the same numerals and letters of reference.
A represents the plate, which is made of thin Serial No. 224,089. (No model.)
sheet metal, preferably brass, and of about the quality employed in making the well-known paper-fasteners to be found in the market. By the action of suitable dies the plate is cut through on the transverse lines 1 2,3 4,5 6,7 8, leaving longitudinally-arranged bridges 9 9, and forming the prongs a a and b b,which are bent upwardly into two sets, as shown, the bridges 9 9 forming heads or bases for the prongs, besides serving to keep them intact with the plate. Preferably,the outer extremities of the lines 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, and 7 and 8 are made to converge, so as to form penetrating-points in the prongs a a and b I). The prongs a a and the prongs b b, respectively, are bent close together, as shown, so that only one perforation for each set of prongs need be made in the tape.
In the use of these fasteners, I take a strip of tape, B, either of the desired length or in skein or on spool, andimpale it at or near one end (about centrally of its width) upon one set of the prongs, which I then separate and bend outwardly and downwardly, transversely of the plate and the tape, in opposite directions until they shall lie substantially parallel with the plate and come in contact with the upper surface of the tape. Then Iplaeethe fastener upon the top of the package to besecured and wrap the tape around it, and when the latter shall have been drawn as tight as desired I impale another portion of it upon the other set of prongs and bend these two prongs as I did the others. Any extra length of tape I then cut off.
By cutting out and bending up the prongs, as shown and described, their broad sides are disposed longitudinally of the plate and enter the tape parallel with the warp, thus making the impalement of the tape an easy n1atter,and providing a fastener that may be used with a very narrow tape.
By forcing the prongs through the tape at about its center widthwise, and then bending them down flat to the right and left, the tape is firmly held in position, and the bundle or package which it surrounds securely and positively fastened. Vvhen it may be desired to open the package thus fastened,it is of course only necessary to bend up again one set of the prongs and disengage one end of the tape.
The package may subsequently be again secured by reimpaling the tape and bending down the prongs, as before.
The main difference between the fastener shown at Fig. 9 and that illustrated at the other figures is, that in the former the prongs are out to the extreme side edges of the plate, while in the latter the edges are all left intact and unbroken, and this latter construction I prefer for several reasons.
lVhat I claim as new, and desire to seen re by Letters Patent, is-
A fastener composed of a plate, A, cut or severed transversely at the lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, to form the four prongs a a and Z) b and the bridges 9 9, the said prongs being bent upright close together in two sets, each of which is adapted to make a single perforation in a strip of tape and be separated and turned downwardly to the right and left transversely of the plate and the tape, as and for the purposes set forth.
Signed at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, this 11th day of January, A. D. 1887.
JACOB FELBEL.
