SUSPENDERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 635,314, dated October 24, 1899.
Application filed February 13, 1899. Serial No. 705,408. (No model.)
To alZ whom; it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT F. GERMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Louis= ville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Suspenders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to suspenders, and in particular to the ends thereof, the object being the production of a combined loop=hook and eyepiece which shall be simple in construction, cheap in first cost, strong,,and durable, the parts so fashioned and adapted each to the other that the eyepiece will not be liable to become accidentally detached from the hook, and which withal shall constitute a more desirable device than any heretofore produced.
lVith the above object in view I form a loophook and eyepiece each out of an integral piece of wire, the former being made by bending the wire at its middle portion into the shape of a hook and its ends to constitute an eye for the passage of the webbing and the latter made by bending or coiling the wire on itself at the middle one or more times to form an eye and fashioning the free ends so as to adapt them for receiving and retaining a looped cord or braid ends.
My invention consists in certain novelties of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter described, and specifically pointed out in the claims.
The accompanying drawings illustrate one example only of the loop-hook and two examples of eyepieces, in combination with other necessary elements of suspenders, said examples being made by the best modes I have so far devised for the application of the principle.
Figure 1 is a front view in elevation of a suspender-end embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a side vieW of Fig. 1 in elevation. Fig. 3 is a front elevation view of a Suspender-end having a slightly-modified form of eyepiece adapted for use with braid ends.
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, the letter A designates the ordinary webbing used in suspenders, the same being turned on itself to form a loop, as shown. B is a looped cord of any well-known shape and construction, but preferably elastic, and E aloop-hook made by first bending a single integral piece of wire at the middle portion thereof to constitute the point of a hook and then bending the free ends to form an eye for the reception of the webbing. F is the blunt rounded point of the hook, G the eye for the webbing, and H a narrow opening between the point of the hook and the parallel portions of the wires adjacent the points where they separate to form the eye. J is an eyepiece, also made of a single integral piece of wire by first coiling the middle portion thereof once or more upon itself and then turning the free ends one to the right and the other to the left in the same or parallel planes, thus forming two eyes, one in a plane perpendicular to the other. K is the eye formed by the middle part of the wire, and L the eye formed by the free ends.
Referring to Fig. 3, the loop-hook there shown is. identical with the hook of Figs. 1 and 2; but the eyepiece differs in having the lower part slightly modified, so as to be adapted to receive braid ends. K is the upper eye, shaped like the eye Kin Fig. 1, M N the lower eyes, made by bending the free ends of the wire one to the right and the other to the left in substantially the same plane as the wire of the upper eye, and O the braid ends adjusted in the eyes M N, as indicated on the drawings.
In practice the free ends of the loop-hook at P may be soldered together, and likewise the ends Q R of the eyepiece of Fig. 3 each soldered to adjacent portions of the wire.
It should be noted that the diameter of the eyepiece embracing the two wires at point S is greater than the diameter of the opening H of the hook. By this construction the eyepiece will not accidentally become detached, but may be removed by rotating the same through an arc of ninety degrees, as is quite obvious. The combined loop-hook and eyepiece thus constructed and adapted each to the other constitute a very desirable and superior type of cast-off.
By forming the loop-hook and eyepieces as hereinbefore set forth I produce a combined device which fulfils all the conditions set forth as the object or end of my invention and which, besides, possesses other characteristic features.
While I have shown on the drawings and described only one example of the physical embodiment of the loop-hook and two exam.- ples of the eyepiece, I do not thereby intend to restrict the scope of my invention so as to exclude other modes of embodiment involving colorable alterations and modifications or slight changes such as might be introduced at the discretion of the manufacturer.
That I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination, in a Suspender-end, of a loop-hook and eyepiece; said loop-hook made of a single piece of wire bent at the middle on itself through an arc of one hundred and eighty degrees to form a hook with a blunt point, and the free ends fashioned to form an eye for the webbing; and the said eyepiece made of a single piece of wire bent upon itself at the middle, and to the right and left at the free ends, to form two separate eyes, one of the eyes, K, which is formed by the middle portion of the wire, being adapted to pass over the blunt point, F, of the hook; in substance as set forth.
2. The combination, in a Suspender-end, of a loop-hook and an eyepiece; the said eyepiece having two eyes, one made by coiling a single piece of wire on itself one or more times at the middle, and the free ends bent one to the right and the other to the left to form another eye, one of the eyes, K, being adapted to pass over the blunt point, F, of the hook; in substance as set forth.
3. The combination, in a suspender-end, of a loop-hook and an eyepiece; the said eyepiece having two eyes, one made by coiling a single piece of wire on itself one or more times at the middle, and the free ends bent one to the right and the other to the left to form another eye so as to be in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the other eye; in substance as set forth.
4. The combination in a Suspender-end, of a loop-hook having an opening H, and a spiral eyepiece; the sum of the diameters of the wires at S being greater than the opening H of the hook; whereby the eyepiece must be turned through an arc of ninety degrees in order to be detached; in substance as set forth.
5. The combination, in a suspender-end, of a double eyepiece and a loop-hook, each made of a single piece of wire; the wire of the said double eyepiece at its middle portion being coiled upon itself to form one eye, and its free ends coiled one to the right and the other to the left and parallel to form the other eye; and the wire of the said loop-hook beingbent at its middle portion through an arc of one hundred and eighty degrees to form a hook, and at its free ends fashioned to form an elongated eye for the webbing; the sum of the diameters of the wires at the point, S, of the eyepiece, being greater than the width of the opening, H, adjacent the point of the hook; in substance as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
