SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 697,197, dated April 8, 1902.
Application filed May 22, 1901. Serial No. 61,482. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALFRED T. CLARK,-a citizen of the United States, residing at Trenton, in the county of Mercer and State ofNew Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Meat-Hook Attaching and Looking Devices, of which the following is a specification.
Myinvention relates particularly to a novel means or device for securing and locking said hook in required position, and comprises at its upper end a projecting skeleton sleeve, loop, or eye, that is adapted for encircling and embracing a horizontally-arranged supporting rail or bar, said sleeve or loop consisting of a single integral structure formed by bending the upper portion of the hook intoa complete drawn-out convolution or spiral cord, that extends in a general longitudinal direction at right angles to the shank of the hook, thereby forming an unobstructed loop or eye for the accommodation of the bar or rail upon which it is to be seated and which is provided with a radial receiving opening or mouth that is in such open relation to the loop as to admit of the introduction or entrance of the body portion of the supporting -bar therethrough and the adjustment of the loop thereon, while said convolution or spiral extends laterally and inclines slightly upward and terminates to form an extending arm or holding-finger, that is folded or curved up at such an angle or deflection as to exert when in position a pinching or grasping effect upon the supporting-bar.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents in front elevation a perpendicular view of my improved hook, while Fig. 2 shows in like front view a fragmentary portion of the hook to illustrate its mode of application toasupporting-bar. Fig. 3 represents an end view of Fig. 2.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts in the several figures.
Reference being had to the drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, A indicates the hook in its entirety, and is shown as comprising three principal portions--the hook portion d cl at its lower extremity and the shank S or middle portion and the fastening device or loop portion 13, all of which are integrally connected.
The structure shown may be produced from an integral piece of wire or rounded-iron rod,
which may be shaped at its lower end to provide the hooks d (1, while the middle portion is made straight to serve as a shank. The loop or eye, which is intended to serve as a fastening means to secure the hook to its support at the upper end thereof, may be constructed by heating the upper or remaining terminal of the rod or wire and bending it upon itself to form a single and complete coil and then expanding the coil thus formed laterally'to draw out the convolution into a spiral to give the proper curvature, and thereby form the encircling eye portion 1), as well as the arm or finger holding portion 1), while providing an intervening space C between the shank A and the finger b, that is adapted for an entrance or receiving opening for the accommodation of the body portion of the supporting-bar that is to be received by the eye E. The arm or finger b is so positioned or deflected as to serve the twofold function of forming a firm abutment to confine the bar when once embraced with the exertion of some leverage, while it also serves as a lock for said loop in its embrace as long as said hook is subjected to a downpulling strain, as when supporting a load.
This hook is simple, cheap, and efficient, and it is obvious that a hook thus constructed can be made fast or secured to a horizontally-arranged supporting bar or rail to normally hang or be suspended, as illustrated in Fig. 2, by turning the loop to a position to bring its receiving-opening in register with the longitudinally-extending supporting-bar, then admitting the body portion of the rail therein and turning said hook until said loop is brought with its axis in coincidence with the axis of said rail, thereby seating same.
What I desire to claim as new and useful A meat-hook comprising a shank having at one end a hook and at the other end a single spiral coil extending laterally and inclining slightly upward.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, this 18th day of March, 1901.
ALFRED T. CLARK.

A. J. BARRETT, A. F. BARCLAY.
