HOOK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 460,367, dated September 29, 189
Application filed April 27, 1891.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, FERDINAND SPLITT- STOSER, of North Branch, in the county of Isanti and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hooks; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification.
My invention relates to animprovement in hooks,andisintendedas animprovennentupon Patent No.410, i61, granted September 3, 1889; and it consists in the particular construction, which will be fully described hereinafter, and pointed out in the claim.
The object of my invention is to provide a hook with a pivoted latch which will prevent the chain, ring, or other device fastened to the hook from becoming detached therefrom, and to so shape the recess in which the latch closes that the latch will be just flush with the surface of the hook.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a hook, partly in section so as to show the spring-latch. Fig. 2 is a detail view.
A represents the hook, which may be provided with a swivel, if so desired, as shown in the above-mentioned patent, and which has a recess made in the lower side of its end sufficientlylong to receive the latch B, which is pivoted at its outer end. This latch has a cam or projection 0, formed upon the inner side of its pivoted end, and is also provided with flanges D upon opposite edges, and which flanges fit in small recesses made in opposite edges of the hook, as shown. These flanges form holds or catches, by means of which the latch can be opened out so as to be brought Serial No. 390,676. (No model.)
into use. Placed in the bottom of the recess is a spring G, which bears against the pivoted end of the latch and serves to hold the latch positively open or shut. The cam or projection upon the side of the pivoted end of the latch, by acting upon the spring, causes the latch to snap open or shut after it has passed a certain point in being open or closed.
Should it be desired, the latch maybeplaced in the shank or in the body of the hook instead of in the end, as here shown.
It will be seen from the above that the latch when closed is flush with the inner edge of the hook, that the parts are few and simple and not liable to get out of order, and that by providing the latch with flanges upon its opposite edges it can readily be opened at any time by the operator.
Having thus described my invention, I claim A hook having a shank portion and a hook portion, the outer end of the hook portion having a recess in the inner side thereof, an L-shaped latch pivoted within the said recess, with the upper surface ofits pivoted end below the inner or bottom wall of the said recess to allow the short end of the L-shaped latch room to move, a spring secured at its inner end to the inner wall of the said recess and having its outer end resting over the short end of the said latch, the latch adapted to fold within the recess, and its lower end to rest upon the said shank portion of the hook when opened, the parts combined substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses. 4
