AN DREW EGHANAM PHOTO-UTHQWASMNEIDERC.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN \V. PAYTON, OF SEDALIA, MISSOURI.
CUFF-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 553,260, dated January 21, 1896.
Application filed June 8, 1895- Serial No. 552,157. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN WILLIAM PAYTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sedalia, in the county of Pettis and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Cuff-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to cuff-holding devices, and has for its object to provide a simple, inexpensive, and efficient reversible holder adapted for use either on a left or right hand cuff; to provide a holder which is adapted to perform the additional function of a button to connect the edges of the inner end of a cuff, and, furthermore, to provide simple means whereby the cuif may be adjusted to give the desired exposure without disconnecting the holder.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will be readily understood from the following description, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
-In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View showing a cuff-holder embodying my invention applied in the operative posit-ion to a cuff and wristband. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a detailed view of the holder detached.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
1 designates a fiat tongue which forms the body portion of the holder, and to the outer end thereof is pivotally connected a clip 1, constructed of spring metal and having opposing jaws 2 and 3, adapted to bear upon opposite sides of the inner lapped edge of the cuff, the jaw 2 being pivotally connected to the tongue, while the other jaw is free and is deflected slightly at its extremity to facilitate engagement with the edge of the cuff. The pivotal connection of this clip with the body portion of the holder provides for its arrangement upon either side of said body portion, whereby it maybe engaged with either a right or left hand cuff. Attached to the tongue at an intermediate point is a spring-clamp 4 having a spring-actuated jaw 5 provided with serrations or teeth 6 to engage the edge of a wristband, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the portion of the tongue which projects inward beyond said clamp being extended through the inner buttonholes in the overlapping ends of the cult.
The engagement of the clip with the edge of the cuif, while sufficient to hold the latter in place, is not sufficient to prevent inward and outward movement of the cuff when it is desired to adjust the latter to provide more or less exposure of the cuff beyond the end of the sleeve, and while the clamp is engaged firmly with the wristband of the shirt, there by maintaining the holder in a fixed position, the cuff may be moved as desired without disengaging its edge from the clip or its inner buttonholes from the projecting inner portion of the tongue. This constitutes a simple form I of cuff-holder which may be attached to the cud by simply inserting the projecting portion of the tongue in the inner buttonholes and sliding the clip laterally to engage the edge, and when the cuff is tobe applied to the wristband the operators finger may be passed into the cuff from the outer end to manipulate the clamp and engage it with the edge of the wristband. This manner of attaching the cuff to the sleeve enables it to be accomplished quickly, while at the same time the cult is held in the desired position to provide the necessary exposure. If after the engagement of the clamp with the wristband it is found that further adjustment is desirable it maybe accomplished by grasping the cuff and pushing or pulling it without changing the position of the holder. In this way an adjustment of approximately two inches is possible, according to the length of the projecting portion of the tongue, which remains in position in the inner buttonholes of the cuff, irrespective of the adjustment of the latter.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described my invention, I claim- 1. In a cuff-holder, the combination of a straight fiat tongue adapted to extend through and slide in the inner button-holes of a cuff and provided at its outer end with a lateral clip for sliding engagement with one of the lapping edges of the cuff and at an intermediate point with a fixed clamp for engagement with a wrist-band, whereby after the clamp has been engaged with the wrist-band it remains stationary and the cuff maybe adjusted independently thereof to attain the desired extension, substantially as specified.
2. A cuff-holder having a clamp to engage the edge of a wrist-band and provided with a fixed tongue extending inwardly from the clamp to fit in the aligned button-holes at the inner end of a cuff and extending outwardly from the clamp and terminating in a lateral clip for sliding engagement with one of the lapping edges of the cuff, said holder being held stationary by the engagement of its clamp with the edge of the wrist-band and the cuff being longitudinally movable independently of the holder to attain the desired extension, substantially as specified.
3. A cuff-holder having a clamp for engagement with the edge of a wrist-band and provided with a flat tongue extending inwardly and outwardly from the clamp, the inner end of the tongue being adapted to extend through the aligned button-holes at the inner end of a cufi, and the spring-jawed clip adapted to engage one of the lapping edges of the out. and pivotally mounted upon the outer end of the tongue whereby it may be arranged upon either side thereof, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as myown I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
