CHARLES E. PIPER, OF LAKEPORT, NEW HAMPSHIRE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE- HALF TO LEROY M. GOULD, OF SAME PLACE.
CARPET-FASTENER.
PECIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 510,089, dated December 5, 1893.
Application filed March 25,1893. Serial No. 467,553. (No model.)
T0 at whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES E. PIPER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lake- 'port, in the county of Belknap and State of New Hampshire, have invented a new andv In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a piece of carpet shown secured in position by the improved device. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing a corner of the carpet rolled back, and illustrating the fastening in full lines as applied thereto. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the fastener and headed tacks or nails in engaging position therewith. 7
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates a headed fastening, which may be a suitable tack or nail, arranged at proper intervals in the floor so that the head thereof will stand at a distance above the said floor with-a space between the same and the adjacent washboard. If, however, the device be used for securing rugs, druggets, or analogous coverings, the said hook or catch, which is formed by the tack or nail, may be secured in any part of the floor where found desirable for the intended use.
Within the edge of the carpet, rug, drugget, or analogous covering, the fastening is secured in a removable manner, and consists of a straight engaging bar 2, with a pointed end and having its opposite end looped and merging into a corrugated bar 3, whose free end is bent upwardly and formed into a keeper 4:, with which the pointed end of the bar 2 engages to hold the device in secure position.
The fastener as thus set forth is formed from stock of a yielding or resilient nature, so that it will always retain its desired shape without bending or becoming disfigured. The bar 2 is threaded along the edge of the carpet a sufficient number of times to produce a firm securement, and the keeper at is caused to engage the pointed end of the said bar- This leaves the corrugated bar 3'free for engagement with the headed tacks or nails, and the several corrugations form seats in which the shanks of the tacks or nails rest after the said bar 3 has been drawn over the heads of the said tacks or nails. The said bar 3 is of such length and is formed with a sufficient number of corrugations to cause an extended bearing surface or attachment, that is each bar 3 is arranged to engage a number of headed tacks or nails in a removable manner, and thereby produce a convenient form of fastening for the intended purpose.
It will be observed that by means of the 7 attachment or fastener as set forth, a carpet or other covering maybe laid with very little trouble and is made readily attachable or detachable.
The device can be made in different sizes for various purposes, and of suitable material of a preferred or desired color.
The utility and advantages of theinvention herein set forth are readily apparent, and the facility with which the said attachment may be arranged in position for practical use renders it exceptionally beneficial in the art.
Changes in the form, proportion and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 9 A carpet fastener, consisting of a pin with a pointed end merging into a corrugated bar whose free end terminates in akeeper adapted to engage the said pointed end, said 001' In testimony that I claim the foregoing as rugated bar being arranged to engage headed my own I have hereto affixed my signature in devices and form seats therefor, and the said the presence of two witnesses.
pointed pin or bar being interwoven in a ear- CHARLES E. PIPER. 5 pet or covering to leave the said corrugated \Vitnesses:
bar free for such engagement, substantially HANIE D. BROWN,
