To all whom, it mag/concern.-
' Be it known vthat I, adelphia,` Pennsylvani Improved Fastener for do hereby clear, and exact erence being had ings, and to the thereon.
E'. A. Goonns, of Phil- I a, have invented an StainRods; and I declare the following to lbe a full, description ofthe same, ret'- to the accompanying drawletters of reference vmarked My invention consists of twolevers, each having two cam-like p rojections constructed and applied to the fasteningof arod for confining a narrow carpetl to the step of a stair,
substantially as described hereinafter; and my invention further-consists of fasteners for confining a broad 'carpe the said fastener being tially as described here t to the step-ot' a stair,.
a combination Vof thel cam-like projections with -certa'in brackets applied to thestairs, substan-Av in after.
The object of my invention .is yto Aproduce cheap, simple, and a-id of which stair-rods durable fasteners, by the can be`secnred with facility to and readily removed from the stain.
In order to .enable ot my invention, I `will no hers to make and use w proceed to describe the manner ot( constructing and applying the same;
On-reftlfence to the ings, whidh forni a accompanying drawpart of this specification,

When the stair-redhas to be secured to the step, the two levers are, in thers't instance, elevated to the positionsl shown by'red lines, Fig. 1, after which the rod .is placed directly against the step of the stair in front of the carpet, when the two cam-like .projections of the levers will occupy the positions within the rod seen in Fig. 2, the levers themselves bearing against the step; After this the levers are depressed to the position shown by the black lines, Fig. ll, thereby causing the cam-likeprojectionsc c tobecome jammed, one against the inside of the upper longitudinal groove, olf-of the stair-rod, and the other against` the inside` of the lower longitudinal groove ofthe rod,.as seen in Fig. 3. The rod is lthus eiiectually. secured.
It shouldbe understood that the above-deseribedstair-rod fasteners are used when the .carpet is narrower than the stairs, the width ofthestairs being in Fig. 1 represented by the two black lines D- and D,`and the width of the carpet by the two red lines w w.,
When the` carpet has tobe of thersame Width or nearly thesame-width as the stairs, I adoptthe moditied'fastener represented .by Figs. 4,5, and 6, the levers B andB, with pro'- jections c c, similar to-those above described, being used in this modification but instead of being hung step, as in the former case, theyareconnected each :to a bracket, E, .onebracket beingsecured toone side, D, ofthe stair'andthe other to the opposite side, D', in the position bestobserved in the sectional plan view, Figli, so
that the carpet may take its place betweenl the bracket and the frontj() of the step. f
