Application filedMarch 19, 1894.
ids, in the county of Kent and State of Michil gan, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Clothes-Line Holders; 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 appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates' to improvements in clothes line fasteners, and its object isto provide the same with certain new and useful features, hereinafter more fully described and particularly pointed out in the claim, ref erence being had to the accompanying drawings, in whichj Figure l is aside elevation of my device; Fig. 2 a front elevation of the same; and Fig. 3 a plan View.
Like letters refer to figures.
A is the plate or base, by means of which my device may be secured to apost'or in any suitable place. Y
B, B, are brackets, or lugs on said plate, through which pass the ends of the post C, which post carries thel arm D and the lateral plates, or wings H. The lower end of said post is transversely divided, and outwardly bent to prevent its removal from the brackets B. From the arm D are oppositely projecting yoke hangers E, E. In the upper yoke E is journaled the pulley F, vand in the lower yoke E', is journaled the cam G, which cam is notched or corrugated on its outer surface at one side and carries the weight G at the other side.
I is a clothes line, which when passed over the pulley F and downward between the corlike parts in all of the presence of two witnesses.
Serial No. 504,340. (No model.)
rugated side ofl cam G, and the face ofthe plate H, is pressed by the action of said cam against said plate and rmly held thereby.
My device is adapted to hold two lines as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, one on each side of the arm D. By this arrangement of parts, I am enabled to tighten the line by simply taking hold of the same beneath the cam G and pulling downward. The line passing over the pulley F, is held in vertical position as it passes between the plate H and the cam G, thus leaving said cam to freely operate. The corrugated side of said cam is heldincontact with the line by means of the weight G', and
smooth outer face on said post below said arm, an upwardly turned yoke hanger carrying a pulley and a downwardly turned hanger carrying a cam on said arm, said cam having a corrugated face on one side, and a weight attached at the other side, substantially as described. Y-
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in HENRY BETKA.
