SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 391,307, dated October 16, 1888.
Application filed December 24, 1887. Serial No. 258,881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, JAMES R. FERGUSON and JOHN FERGUSON, citizens of the United States,residing at Chester,in the county of MiddleseX and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inSleeve- Holders; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making apart of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective view of our improved sleeve-holder, and Fig. 2 a detail perspective View showing a modification of one of the jaws.
The present invention has relation to that class of sleeveholders constructed of wire, which are provided with grippingjaws at one end and loops or rings at the other, through which the thumb orfinger is inserted after the jaws grip the sleeve, thereby holding the sleeve down and in place while putting on the outer garment.
Heretofore the above class of devices was usually formed of two sections or pieces of wire, which were hinged or pivoted together near their gripping ends. This constructing the device oftwolengths of wire and afterward pivoting them together is a feature that the present invention is designed to avoid, thereby enabling the holder to be manufactured at a less cost, and, there being no pivoting of the parts and no rivets used, there is less danger of the device getting out of order.
To attain this object is the purpose of the invention; and it consists in forming the holder of a single piece of wire,substantially as shown in the drawings, and hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings the holder, as therein illustrated, is constructed of a single length of spring-wire, bent so as to form the arms A and ring or loop B, which is disposed at an obtuse angle to the arms and is of the required size to conveniently insert the thumb or finger through it. These arms are of any preferred length, and at their extremities are bent inwardly, as shown at a, and thence terminate in jaws Cfor the purpose of gripping the sleeve of the garment.
It is essential in this class of sleeve-holders that the ring 13 be disposed at an obtuse angle with the arms A, so that, after the grippingjaws are made to engage the sleeve, said ring will be in a position to conveniently insert the thumb or finger through it, which would be difficult were the ring on the same plane with the arms. It is also of importance that the extremities of the arms A have inward bends a, so that when the slide 1) is down to compress them the gripping-jaws will be brought closely together upon the garment. Thesejaws may be formed by bending the wire of the arms into rings, as shown in Fig. 1, or disks or other forms of heads may be used,as shown in Fig. 2, which are constructed of wood, rubber, cork, or other suitable material and connected to the extremities of the arms in any well-known manner. Thejaws are closed upon the sleeve of the garment by means of the slide I), and when the slide is forced up in the direction of the loop or ring the springy quality of the wire will force the jaws apart, as shown in full lines, Fig. 2, the broken lines showing the jaws compressed and the slide pushed down.
Having now fully described our invention, what we claim as new,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The sleeve-holder herein described, formed of a single piece of wire bent to form a pair of arms having a loop or ring at one end which is disposed at an obtuse angle to the plane of the arms, and the opposite end of the arms having inward bends terminating in grippingjaws, and a slide to close or open said jaws, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that we claim the above, we have hereunto subscribed our names in the presence of two witnesses.
