SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 702,523, dated June 17, 1902.
3 Application filed January 31, 1901. Serial No. 45.414. iNo model ing a part of this specification, and to the ref erence-numerals marked thereon.
My present invention relates to paper-clips adapted to be applied to a suitable baseboard or support and to detachably secure thereto letters, invoices, or other papers; and it has for its object to provide an improved device which is simple and cheapin construction,
being preferably formed of stamped sheet metal and by means of which the securing and positioning and the application and removal of papers are facilitated.
To these ends my invention consists in certain improvements in construction and combinations of parts, all as will be hereinafter fully described and the novel features pointed out inthe claims at the end of this specification.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a clip constructed in accordance with my invention applied to a suit" able base-board or support with the parts adjusted for the application of papers thereto; Fig. 2, a vertical transverse sectional View of the clip; Fig. 3, a side elevation of the clip; Fig. 4, a perspective View of the base-plate.
Similar reference-numerals in the several figures indicate similar parts.
1 indicates a board or support to which my improved clip is to be attached, and the clip proper consists of a stationary or supporting member adapted to be removably attached to the board or support 1 and the movable clip member pivoted to the stationary member and operated on its pivot toward the board by aspring, said stationary member being constructed as shown in Fig. 4 and embodyinga horizontal portion or flange 2 and a verticallyextendi-ngportion or flange 3 at the front edge, having inwardly-extending lugs or projections 4, provided with perforations 5,the lower flange or portion 2 being provided at the rear the end of the board 1 and serving as a means of suspension, and in said loop is provided a small projection or lug 7, adapted to receive the loop of the operating-spring S. The lower edge'of the flange 3 is provided with the downwardly-proj ecting lu gs 9, which extend below the plane of the flange 2 and are adapted to project below the surface of the board 1 when applied thereto, as shown in Fig. 3, so that when the base member is applied to the board 1 by suitable attaching-screws the papers may be straightened or alined against the flange 3iand prevented. from extending between t-h'e clip andthe board by the lugs.
The movable pivotedmember 10 is provided with the integraldownwardly-extending ears 11, pe rforated for'the passage of the pintle orarbor,12,which also extends through the perforated lugs 4, and the front edge of the movable member is bent downward slightly and is adapted to be held normally in contact with the boardl by the spring. The spring 8 encircles the pintle 12 and is provided with a central loop 13, engaging the lug 7, while its upwardly-extendingends engage the under side of the movable member 10 to throw the forward-edge of the latter downwardly.
" 14 indicates acatch or look plate pivoted at 15 to the front flange 3 of the base member, being movable laterally of the direction of movement of the movable member and provided with the projection or lug 16, which latter when the clip is opened for the application of a paper may be passed beneath the forward portion of the movable member 10 to lock the latter in the position shown in Fig. 3, so that papers may be adjusted against the stop-flange 3, the operator using both hands for the purpose, or any papers held by the clip may be removed,"if desired. When not in use, this catch-plate is adapted to be turned on its pivot dow'nZ-to. the position shown in dotted lines in Figmljout of the way.
The separate parts of the clip'fmay be, as stated, readily stamped from sheet metal and bent or formed up by means of suitable dies, and the formation of the lug 7 in the aperture of the loop enables me to form both end with a loop 6, adaptedto project beyond said loop and the log by means of a single die, thus cheapening the construction.
I claim as my invention 1. In a paper-clip, the combination with the stationary member constructed of a single piece of sheet material embodying the basefiange having the loop and log therein, the front flange extending beyond the base at the ends, the lugs extending rearwardly from the front flange, and the spurs extending doWnwardly from the ends of the latter, of the pintle arranged in the perforated rearwardlyextendinglngs, the movable member provided with the perforated lugs jonrnaled on the pintle and having the handle, and the spring encircling the pintle having the loop at the center engaging the lug on the stationary member and the arms engaging the movable member.
2. In a paper-clip, the combination with the stationary member adapted to be applied to a support having the base-flange provided with the loop and the lug therein, the front flange having the rearwardly-extending perforated ears and the projections extending below the base-flange, of the movable memher having the downwardly-extending per forated lugs, the pintle and the spring encircling it and engaging the two members, and the catch pivoted on the front flange and adapted to engage the movable member forward of its pivot to hold it out of operative position.
