Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EL'NIGKOLDS, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
IMPROVEMENT IN HOOKS AND EYES.
Speciication forming part of Letters Patent No. 44,815, dated October 25, 1864.
To all whom t may concern:
Beit known that I, H. NIcKoLDs, of Provi dence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented anew and I1nproved Dress-Fastener; and I do hereby de clare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l represents a plan of a dress-fastener, or hook and eye, made according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical lsection ot' the saine, taken in the plane indicated by the line .r Je, Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a sectional side elevation of the same in a larger scale than the previous iigures.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
L; The object of this invention is to produce a hook and eye which will not open spontaneously or without the aid of the ngers, and which, when together, are compact and solid, so that when subjected to pressure they do not `nbecome injured. The hook is ilat and not liable to be bent when exposed to pressure. It is stronger than the ordinary hook, and the cost of its manufacture is rather less.
By referring to the drawings it will be seen Y the hook A is Inade in the form of the letter M. Its tongue a is nearly of equal length to the shank b, and it is bent so that it is situated nearly in the same plane with said shanks. The point of the tongue is rounded and descends somewhat below the level of the Shanks and in forcing the eye B in the hook said point has to be raised slightly to admit the eye.
The eye B is made in the ordinary shape, but it is provided with two indentations, c, as more clearly shown in Fig. 3, which are intended to receive and retain the body of the hook when the two are put'together. A similar indentation in the tongue a of the hook retains the body of the eye, and by these means my hook and eye when together are compact and form a solid, so that the same when subjected to pressure do not become injured. Furthermore, when properly sewedonto the garment and fastened, they will not becolneunfastened without the aid of the fingers. They are stronger than the hook and eye in common use, and from the llatness ofthe hook they are not so much exposed to injury, and consequently, being less liable to become bent, they are more durable.
The cost of manufacture of my hook and eye will be rather less than that of the common hook. They will be produced by proper machinery, and they will prove to be a Very convenient article for the public.
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A hook, A, made substantially as shown, as a new article of manufacture.
El. NIOKOLDS.
