EYEG LASS-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 629,035, dated July 18, 1899.
Application filed May 16, 1899. Serial No. 717,070. (No model.)
To It whom'it may concern:
Be it known that I, WVASHINGTON G. KANT- NER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Reading, in the county of Berks, State of Pen nsylvania, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Eyeglass-Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to eyeglass-holders, and particularly to a holder of that character adapted to be attached to a garment.
The invention hasfor an object to provide a holder having a slotted face in a single plane, so as to avoid all projections or hooked portions liable to become caught upon or engaged with the clothing of the wearer.
A further object of the invention is to provide an singularly-disposed entrance-slot to prevent the glasses from being accidentally dropped from the holder when the wearer may be in a bending or inclined position.
A further object is to provide an additional guard and stop to limit the movement of the glasses when within the holder and also a cushion at the lower portion of the holder.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will hereinafter appear in the following description, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims. V
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspeetive showing the application of the holder. Fig. 2 is a plan of the blank from which the holder is cut. Fig. 3 is a rear View of the holder formed from a single blank. Fig. 418 a side View of the same. Fig. 5 is a front view. Fig. 6 is a side View, with parts in section, of a modified form of the holder. Fig. 7 is a sectional view showing the method of attaching a securing-pin to the holder, and Fig. 8 is a plan of the blankpartially bent to form the holder.
Likeletters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several figures of the draw ings.
The'holder may be formed of any desired metal or other material and in one or more pieces connected together. In the-drawings, however, the letter A designates a blank from which the entire holder and securing-pin may be produced.
This blank is suitably slitted at its central portion to provide a pin B, a
receiving-catch O, and guard-lugs D. The
opposite ends of this blank are inclined, as at A, and when bent upon the dotted. lines A these inclined portions produce an opening disposed at an angle to a vertical line extending longitudinally of the holder, preferably at an oblique angle thereto.
In the formation of the holder the portion B is hammered or otherwise formed into the attaching-pin, while the catch 0 is bent slightly outward to receive the point of said pin and the guard-lugs D bent inward. It will be observed that the face of the holder, composed of the inclined end portions A, is located in a single plane, thereby obviating the use of any projecting portions which are liable to catch the clothing, such as springhooks and other forms of clasps having a re,- ceiving portion projecting outward. The lower portion of the holder is provided with a cushion E, of any yielding or suitable material, upon which the bow of the glasses will rest, and thereby prevent chafing or rattling of the same against the metal of the holder, while the guard-lugs D above this cushion prevent the accidental displacement of the glasses and also limit the upward movement of the same if the holder be inclined .or inverted.
In Figs. 6 and 7 a slightly-modified form of the holder A is illustrated, in which the pin B is formed separate from the holder and inserted in a recessed aperture 13 therein. The pin is inserted in this aperture and suitably held against rotation, after which it may be secured by any desired means-for instance, by a punch or hamm'er-comprising the adjacent metal of the holder upon the head of the pin, as shown at 13 in Fig. 7. If desired, instead of using two guard-lugs D, as shown in Fig. 4, a single lug D of greater length may be used, and if not found necessary this lug may be bent back and thus placed out of use. It is further obvious that the inclination of the slot or receiving-opening-may be varied both in its position and in its relative angle to a vertical line.
The method of using the invention will be clearly understood from the foregoing description, and in the form illustrated the bow of the glasses is turned and held at an angle corresponding to the slot in the holder, so that said bow will pass through the slot, and if the guard-lugs D or D are used the bow may be also passed through the space between said lugs, where it will rest upon the cushion E, and which prevents rattling or undue movement of the bow within the holder, while the inclined slot effectually prevents the accidental displacement of the glasses.
It is obvious that the details of construction and the method of producing the holder may be changed without departing from the spirit of this invention as defined by the appended claims.
I-Iaving described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. An eyeglass -holder comprising a face portion located in a single plane and having .an entrance-slot disposed at an angle to a vertical line longitudinally through the holder; substantially as specified.
2. An eyeglass-holder comprising a face portion located in a single plane and having an entrance-slot disposed at an angle to avertical line longitudinally through the holder and a guard-lug extending inward from one wall of the holder; substantially as specified.
3. An eyeglass-holder comprising a face portion located in a single plane and having an entrance-slot disposed at an angle to a vertical line longitudinally through the holder, a guard-lug extending inward from one wall of the holder and a cushion below said lug; substantially as specified.
4. An eyeglassdiolder comprising a face portion located in a single plane and having an entrance-slot disposed at an angle to a ver-' tical line longitudinally through the holder, a guard-lug extending inward from one wall of the holder, a cushion below said lug and a securing-pin carried by the rear wall of said holder; substantially as specified.
5. An eyeglass-holder comprising a face portion located in a single plane and provided with a slot disposed obliquely to a vertical line longitudinally through the holder; substantially as specified.
6. A blank for an eyeglass-holder having its opposite ends inclined at an angle to its side walls; substantially as specified.
7. A blank for an eyeglass-holder having its opposite ends inclined at an angle to its side Walls, a pin, a catch portion, and lug portions cut from said blank and bent therefrom; substantially as specified.
S. An eyeglass-holder having a front portion in a single plane and provided with a slot disposed diagonally to a Vertical line longitudinally through the holder, a securing-pin and catch carried by the rear wall of said holder, an inwardl y-projectin g guard-lu g, and a cushion at the base of said holder; substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
