UNITED STATES PETER OLSEN, OF D PAT NT @FFICE.
ECATUR, ILLINOIS.
BUTT ONHOLE-CUTTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 692,027, dated January 28, 1902.
Application filed October 21, 1901.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, PETER OLSEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Decatur, in the county of Macon and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buttonhole-Cutters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in a device to be used for cutting buttonholes in garments of various kinds; and it consists in certain peculiarities of the construction, novel arrangement, and operation of the various parts thereof, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth and specifically claimed.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a bnttonhole-cutter which shall be simple and inexpensive in construction, strong, durable, and efiective in operation, and which shall be so made that buttonholes of any desired length may be cutthereby.
Another object of the invention is to so construct the cutter that the buttonhole or slit in the cloth may be formed with or without an enlargement or eye at one of its ends.
Still another object is to provide means for normally holding the cutting members apart, so that the cloth of the garment may be readily inserted therebetween.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be disclosed in the subjoined description and explanation.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention pertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe it, referring to the accompanying drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a view in side elevation, partly in section, of a buttonhole-cutter embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation of the cutting members or jaws, showing them separated and illustrating the punch which forms the eye or enlargement of the buttonhole deflected, so as not to act on the cloth. Fig. 3 is a front end View of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a fragmental view, partlyin section, of a portion of one of the handpieces, showing the spring for actuating said pieces. Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view of the punch for forming the eye of thebuttonhole, and Fig. 6 is a detached View of the spring used for actuating the end pieces.
Serial No. 79,474. (No model.)
Similar letters refer to like parts throughout the different views of the drawings.
A represents one of the end pieces,a nd A the other. These pieces maybe made of anysuitable size, form, and material, but are preferably formed of metal and of substantially the shapes shown in the drawings and are pivotally secured together by means of a screwbolt 0. or'other pivot, which passes through them at about their middle portions. Coiled around the pivot a is a spring a, the ends of which engage the adjacent surfaces of the members A and A and serve to normally hold their jaws b and b apart. The jaw 12 is provided at ornearits free end with a knife or cutter 0, which is preferably made of steel and is us uall ysecured to thejaw b by means of screws 0; but said knife may be made integral with the jaw 2) without departing from the spirit of my invention. Pivotally secured at one of its ends to the jaw b and near that end of the knife or cutter G is a punch D, which is also preferably made of steel and has its cutting end formed cylindrical and with a hollow d, as is clearly shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings. Near the hollow d the punch is provided with an opening cl, which serves the double purpose of allowing the pieces of cloth which the punch cuts to pass from said hollow and also to provide a catch for the thumb-nail when it is desired to deflect the punch to the position shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. The pivoted end of the punch is formed with a rocess 02 which engages a spring e, secured to the cutter O or jaw b, and which spring serves to hold the punch in the position shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings. The jaw b of the member A is formed with a longitudinal opening Z2 in which is located a gage-piece E, which is preferably made of brass and is provided with graduate-marks e to indicate inches and the fractional parts thereof. This gage-piece is adjustably held in 'position in the opening 22 therefor in the jaw b by means of a set-screw e of the ordinary or any preferred construction, which screw is located in and engages the jaw 12, as is clearly shown in the drawings.
From the foregoing and by reference to the drawings it will be seen and clearly understood that the spring a, acting on the end pieces or members A and A, will normally hold the jaws of said pieces apart, as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, thus allowing the cloth to be inserted between the beveled or cutting edge 0 of the knife or cutter O and the gage-piece E. By pressing the members or handpieces A and A together it is apparent that the knife or cutter O and gage E will be brought together, thus forming the slit or buttonhole in the cloth, the length of the hole or opening being regulated by the gage-piece. If it is desired to form the buttonhole with an eye orenlargementat one ofits ends,the punch D may be placed in the position shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, where it will be held by means of the spring 6, as is evident. The clippings produced by the cylindrical portion of the punch D will pass through the hollow (1 into the opening d thereof, thus preventing said hollow portion becoming clogged.
When it is desired to form slits without enlargements, the punch may be disengaged from the spring 6 and turned away from the cutter C or to the position shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
Abuttonhole-cutter comprising two springactuated members pivotally secured together, and each having a clamping-jaw, a cutter or knife on one of said jaws, a spring-actuated punch movably secured on the jaw of the cutter, and a gage-piece adj ustably secured on the other jaw of the spring-actuated mem bers,
substantially as described.
PETER OLSEN.
