FASTENING DEVICE FOR HOOKS AND EYES, 81.0.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 557,850, dated April '7, 1896.
Application filed August 12,1895. Serial No. 559,094. (No model.)
To all whom it ntay concern.-
Be it known that we, JOSEPH MATTHEws and KEXNON Mom, of Brunswick, in the county of Glynn and State of Georgia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fastening Devices for Hooks and Eyes and Similar Articles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
Our invention relates to fastening devices for hooks and eyes, buttons, and like articles, but more especially to an improvement in fastening devices for hooks and eyes; and the object of the invention is to provide a means whereby hooks and eyes, buttons, or the like maybe fastened to a garment or to any article or fabric or leather without sewing and without the use of rivets, and whereby the fastening device will be secure and yet be expeditiously and conveniently made, and whereby also the article fastened may be detached as readily as attached.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forminga part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a hook having the improved fastening device attached. Fig. 2 is a plan view of a hook and an eye fitted with the improvement. Fig. 3 is aplan view of the hook and eye shown in Fig. 2 secured to opposing strips of material, and Fig. i is a rear elevation of the hook and eye shown in Fig. 3.
In carrying out the invention the shank of the hook or the eye, button, or other article is made of stout wire, and two strands are bent quite close together in the formation of the shank. The wire is carried horizontally from each member of the shank in opposite directions, forming straight foot- sections 11 and 11, which are at a right angle to the shank. The wire at each side is then carried diagonally in toward the shank, forming inclined members 12 and 12" at opposite sides of the shank. Thence the wire is carried straight in direction of the outer terminals of the shank, forming straight sections or members 13 and 13, substantially parallel with the shank. The wire is then bent upon itself, forming curved sections 14 and 14, and is then carried downward beneath the foot members 11 and 11, forming two pins 15 and 15 at opposite sides of the shank, the pins being preferablymade to converge at their outer or free ends.
In the application of the article the pins 15 and 15 of the hook, for example, are passed through the fabric to the back until the fabric has passed through the arched or curved inner sections 14 and 14c of the fastening device, whereupon the hook is drawn in a re verse direction, and the fabric will then pass along the members or sections 13 and 13, bringing them to the back of the fabric, and will finally pass over the outer ends or point of junction of the foot- members 11 and 11 with the said inclined members 12 and 12.
The peculiar formation of the attaching device enables the attachment to be made in I an exceedingly expeditious manner and with no trouble, but two motions being necessary, one a motion in a direction to enter the pins and the other a motion in an opposite direction. The reverse of these movements are made when the hook is to be Withdrawn from the fabric. After the hook is in the fabric its points or pins may be threaded in the under face of the fabric, or they may be covered by a strip of material sewed to the body material. The hook is preferably formed with a central arch 16 in the shank approaching the bill or head of the hook.
It will be observed that the invention has no limitation to the hooks or eyes shown in the drawings, but is broadly applicable to all kinds of cloth-fasteners, such as buttons, pins, and the like.
Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by'Letters Patent 1. A cloth-fastener,having securing devices consisting of two securing wires or rods extended first outwardly and oppositely, thence inwardly and forwardly, thence oppositely outward and finally rearward and inward the the bends and the form of the same being form of the fastening-rods being permanent, permanent, substantially as described.
substantially as shown and described. J OSEPII MATTHEXVS.
2. A clothfastener,having securing deYices KENNON MOTT. 5 consisting of two securing wires or rods eX- \Vitnesses:
tended to form return bends, the terminals of JAMES M. CALNAN', J12,
the wires or rods being projected rearward of J. W: OONOLEY.
