SIPEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 529,748,0latec11November 27, 1894.
Application filed November 20, 1893. Serial No. 491,508. (No model.)
.To a/ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ARCHIBALD FICKEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Roanoke, in the county of Roanoke and State of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Fastening for Garments, dto., of which the follow? ing is a specification.
My invention relates to a fastening appliance, something in the nature of a hook and eye, to be used on garments, or upon any other article to which it can be applied for the purpose of fastening. Its object isl to provide a simple, strong, and secure devicewhich is easily fastened, and unfastened, and which has the advantage of being brought together and fastened at the exact point to which it is brought, without its being necessaryto carry the hook a distance behind the catch and after being caught Ato come forward again, thereby having a certain amount of slackness 'in the garment so fastened. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings,l in which- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of hook B and catch C, and shows them as the hook is about to enter the catch. Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the parts after they are fastened. Fig. 3 shows a perspective viewof the appliance while being taken apart orunfastened, and Fig. 4 shows a vertical section of the appliance while fastened as in Fig. 2.
Similar letters refer to similarparts throughout the several views.
The hook B is a flat piece of material,hav ing a projecting point, prong, or spur E E on each opposite side, these projecting points E E being inclined upward and rearwardlyfrom the surface of the hook B, and serve to open the parallel bows A A of the catch C, and after passing between them, allow them to close behind, the projecting points E E thereby securing the hook as in Fig. 2.
The catch C corresponds to what is usually the eye of a hook and eye.' It is composed of two parallel bows A A made in one piece with and held together by the springG, and opening when forced apart by the hook B and projecting inclined points E E, and closing behind the projecting points E E thereby securing it as in Fig. 2.l
The two sections A A of the bowed portion of the device are made of one piece of wire bent into a loop or eye Gr to form a spring at the side to hold the sections A A together, and have their ends on the other side b'ent into eyes G G2. The loop or bend of the spring G and the eyes G G2 form attaching points for the thread which secures this part of the device to the garment. The hook B, is wither edgewisepas in Fig. 3, the edges J J of hook B holding the parallel parts A A of the catch Cnapart, and releasing the points E E of the hook allowing the\`liook to be withdrawn. The hook B may have either one or two projecting points. If one, it will be on one side; iftwo,there will be one on each opposite side as in the drawings. The use of but one point instead' of two would not materially alter the eect of the hook. The parallel bows A A of catch'C may be held together by a spring same as G in the drawings, or by one formed awn from the catch C by being turned in any other way that will answer the same purpose and preserveA the principle of the catch as herein set forth.
In defining my invention with greater clearness, I would state that I-am aware that it is not broadly new to provide a scarf pin with an annular recess, and combine it with a holder composed of two convolutions of spring wire, constructed after the manner of a split ring, which clamp the pin and lie in the recess to form a holder or lock for the point. My invention is distinctive in these features; that the edges .I .I of the hook project beyond the points or spurs E, and the body of the hook B-is broad and flat so that when turned edgewise, as in Fig. 3, the bows A Al are separated thereby for easy disconnection of the parts; also further in the fact that the spring G serves the three fold purpose of connecting the ybows A A, providing a spring pressure for clamping them together, and also a point of anchorage for connecting the catch C to the garment by means of the thread. v A f Havingthus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The fastenerherein described, consisting of the hook composed of a fiat body portion with one or more inclined and rearwardly pointing `prongs or spurs projecting away catch or holder composed of two parallel ro from thepla'neof the body portion, and the bowedportions made inbne piece and bent catch or holder consisting of two parallel at one side into a spring loop or eye,and havbowed parts held together by spring tension, ing at the other side a terminal eye substan- 5 substantially as and for the purpose detally as and for the purpose described.
scribed. ARCHIBALD FICKEN.
2. The combination with a hook consisting Witnesses: of a flat body portion and one or more inclined Mrs. E. M. MORSE,
rearwardly projecting,` prongs or spurs; of a JOSIAH FRIEND.
