FASTENING DEVICE.
SPEGIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 492,193, dated February 21, 1893. Application filed September 23, 1892. Serial No. 446,712. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: side. Suitable dies will be used to form the Be it known that 1, JAMES M. CREws, a citizen of the United States, residing at Arlington, in the county of Shelby and State of Tennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fastening Devices, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to an improved fastening device which is adapted for use on corsets, gloves, shoes and other-articles, to close the opening in the same.
The object is to provide a simple, inexpensive, and easily manipulated construction.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which,-
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the complete device; Fig. 2, a plan of a portion of one of the stay-plates; Fig. 3, a view in the flat of a wire of which the fastening hooks are formed; Fig. 4C, a perspective view illustrating the manner in which the hooks are fastened in the stay-plates; Fig. 5, a fragmentary back-view of a stay-plate and hooks therein; Fig. 6, a cross-section of a stay-plate showing a hook; Fig.7, shows one form of connecting string; and Fig. 8 shows another form of connecting string.
In carrying out my invention I provide a pair of stay-plates or strips, A, provided with holes, a, near one side-edge for fastening the plates on opposite sides of the opening in corsets, shoes gloves, and other articles of appare].
Each plate has a series of rectangular holes, 1), near the other side-edge, and hooks are fastened to the plate through the said rectangular holes, as followsz-A single piece of wire is formed into a series of straight prongs, c, with straight connecting portions, (1, at right angles to the prongs. These prongs are formed by bending and doubling the wire so that two straight parts, 0', will lie closely sitle-by-side and form a single prong. The said prongs are inserted through the rectangular holes, b, respectively, in the stay-plate, so that the straight connecting portions, cZ, will fit against the back-side of the plate, and the prongs project from the opposite or front said prongs into hooks, B, each with a straight shank, e, clamped against the front side of the plate, and a rounded or looped part, e, projecting beyond the edge of the plate,-tho end-portion, 6 of said hook being brought in close to the shank, e. shanks, e, clamped against the front side of the plate and the straight connecting portions, d, clamped against the back side of the plate will hold the hooks rigidly. Each plate is provided in this manner with these hooks, and those on one plate are arranged so as to have position alternately between. those on the other, whereby when the plates are fitted together the hooks on both plates together appear in staggered relation.
A string, 0, has a loop, f, at one end to engage over the end-block of the series, and then the string is carried through the other hooks, and fastened to the opposite end-one. This connecting string may be of any suitable construction; in Fig. 7, it is shown made of two strands, g, bound together, leaving a looped end exposed at one end to engage one endhook, and the binding, j, left off at intervals near the other end, so as to expose slits, h, between the strands for engagement with the other end -hook. In Fig. 8, the connecting string is shown of a single strand, with the loop, f, formed at one end by knotting the string, and with a series of knots, 'i, formed near the opposite end to engage the end-hook.
It will now be seen that with my improved fastening at the opening in a pair of-corsets, gloves, shoes or other article of apparel, a draft on a single string which has been fastened to an end-hook and carried through the other hooks as described, will draw the sides of the opening together by pulling the projecting looped parts, e, of the hooks into line.
The arrangement is simple, inexpensive and easily operated.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A fastening device consisting of a pair of stay-plates or strips having means of attach- It will be seen that the ment and provided near their confronting plate; and a connecting string to fasten on the edges each with a series of holes; a single end-hooks and pass through the other books :0 wire for each plate and comprising straight In testimony whereof I affix my signature in portions fitting against the back-side of the the presence of two witnesses.
5 plate, and prongs extending through the JAMES Mi OREWS. openings in the plate and formed into hooks Witnesses: on the front side of the plate with shanks JNO. T. MADDOX, which fit fiat against the said front-side of the I. PARKER DAVIS.
