J. C. PENDLER. HARNESS STRAP 500K.
No. 563,851. Patented July V14, 1896,
UNiTED VSTATES PATENT @Erica JOHN FENDLER, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
HARNESS-STRAP HOOK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 563,851, dated July' 14, 1896.
Application liled February 17, 1896i Serial No. 579,548. (No model.)
T :tu whom, it may concern."
lle it knoavn that I, JOHN C. FENDLER, a citizen ot' the United States, residing at St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented cert-ain new and useful Improvements in Harness-Strap Hooks; and l ldo declare the folloivin g to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, suoli as will enable others skilled in the art to which it apper- .i'ains to make and use the sanne.
My invention relates to improvements in snap-hooks, and its novelty and advantages will be fully understood from the following description and claims when taken in conneet-ion with the drawings, in Which- Figure l is a plan 'vieu' of the blank freni which the body of myimproved snap-hook is formed. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the blank with a portion removed and other portions struck up preparatory to bending it upon itself. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal central section of the saine. Fig. et is a perspective vieuT of the snap-hook ready for use. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal central section of the same.
Referring by letter to the said drawings, A indicates the blank or piece oi' metal from which the body Il of my improved snap-hook is formed. This blank A, as better shown in Fig. l, comprises the middle portion a, the portion h at one end of the portion a, which is reduced in Width as compared to the portion a and preferably has its outer end roundl ed, and the portion c at the opposite end of the portion a, which is of the same Width as the portion b, but is preferably oi' a less length than the saine, for a purpose presently described.
In forming the body B oi' the snap-hook from the single sheet-n1etal blank described a portion is stamped out of the reduced portion c of the blank, as illustrated in Fig. 2, to permit of the said portion c being readily bent, and the portions d (better illustrated in Figs. 2 and 3) are struck up from the middle portion d, and are curved, shown, to afiord a broad bearing for the strap or the like to which the hook is connected. The said blank is then bent upon itself and the portions b c are shaped to forni the hook (l, after which the two branches of the blank are con- 5o nected together by the rivets e and the rivet f f, as better illustrated in Fig. 5 ot' the drawings.
As will be readily appreciated, the hookbody B maybe very quickly and easily formed in the manner just described from a single piece of sheet metal, and it will also be appreciated that such a hook-body is very stron g and durable and is Well able to withstand the sudden shocks, as Well as the long continued strains, to which the snap-hooks are ordinarily subjected.
D indicates the tongue of my improved hook. This longue D, which is formed of spring or resilient metal, is connected at one end to the body B, preferably through the medium of the rivets e, before described, and at its opposite end it is designed to bear against the under side of the portion b of the blank from which the body is formed, as illustrated.
The striking up of the portions d from the blank A serves, when the blank is bent upon itself, to forni an eye g for the reception of a harness-strap or other device to which the hook is connected, and the said portions d, being rounded, as illustrated, will afford a broad bearing for the strap and will consequently prevent cutting or Wearing of the same, which is a desideratum.
Having described my invention, what I claim isl. The snap-hook described comprising the hook made of a single piece of sheet metal bent upon itself at a point that becomes the. 85 rear end of the hook so as to form a hook of two thicknesses of metal and having the por tions d, struck up from its two thicknesses of metal and curled outwardly from its opposite sides and rearwardly so as to form a broad and strong bearing and also having the alined apertures g, in its thicknesses of metal formed by the displacement of the pon tions d, rivets connecting the thicknesses of metal, a tongue, and rivets connecting the tongue to the hook, substantially as specified,
2. The hook described made of a single piece of sheet metal bent upon itself at a point that beoomes the rear end of the hook formed by the displaeementof the portions so as to form t hook of two thicknesses of d, substantially as specified. io metal and heaving the portions d, struck up In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature from its two thicknesses of metal and curled in presence of two Witnesses.
