C. J. ROSS. sGIssoEs HOLDER.
No. 438,087. Patented Oct. 71, 1890. 2791/ Wrzedw y; @HMM ZWe/zor UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES J. ROSS, OF SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS.
SClSSORS-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Iatent No. 438,087, dated October 7', 1890.
Application tiled April 2l, 1890.
To @ZZ whoml it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES J. ROSS, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Springfield, in the county of Sangamon and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful ScissorseIIolder, of which the following is a specification.
The purpose of my invention is to provide a neat, simple, and convenient means for holding scissors,which may be attached in any convenient position on the apparel of the user, and when not in use may be easily detached.
My invention is fully illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of the holder. Fig. 2 is a back view of the holder. Fig. 3 is a vertical longitudinal section on thelineX X. Fig. lis a transverse section on the line Y Y. Fig. 5 is a transverse section on the line Z Z. Fig. 6 represents a blank of sheet metal from Which the holder is formed.
Similar letters in all the figures referto the same parts.
I will now describe the structure of my scissors holder. A blank of any suitable metal is first prepared,as shown in Fig. 6. The blank is then bent around a longitudinal elliptical mandrel until its projecting ends 0,3 and a4 come together. These ends are soldered together Where they join. The prongs dare so bent as to form semi-elliptical channels in the lower ends of the prongs, as shown in Fig. 5, and extending upward the prongs gradually Widen until at their upper ends they conform to the body of the holder. By this means the prongs are made elastic so that when vthe scissors are thrust down through the top of the holder and between them they by their resiliencehold the scissors securely in place, so as to preventrattling, yet permit them to be easily Withdrawn. The band a,formed by joining the ends a4 of the blank, as before described, protects the ends of the prongs a and prevents their catching on the clothing. On each side Serial No. 348,946. (No model.)
of the upper end of the holder is a recess a2 to receive and support the handles of the scissors and prevent them from being forced too far downward. The upper end of the holder is dared and rounded, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, first, to prevent injury to the hands in insertin g the scissors, and, second, to give finish and ornamental appearance to the holder. There is a pin B connected by a hinge b to the back of the holder, and fastening With a hook li near the lower end of the holder. This pin is used for attaching the holder to the clothing or to any other convenient object.
In practical use the holder is pinned in a convenient position on the clothing or other object, and the scissors are inserted through the top of the holder and pushed down until their handles rest in the recess a2, and the prongs a press against and hold the blades of the scissors. Vhen needed for use, the scissors are Withdrawn through the top of the holder.
Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. In a scissors-holder, the combination ot' the recessed and dared top, the channeled spring-prongs at the sides, and the band at the base of the holder, all formed from a single blank or sheet of metal, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose stated.
2. In a scissors-holder, the recessed and iiared top, the integral channeled springprongs, and the integral band, in combination with the hinged pin, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose stated.
3. A blank for scissors-holders, having recesses d2, projecting ends 0.3 and @tand prongs d, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose stated.
