Application lledOctober 1| 1902. Serial 110.125,456. (No model.)
T LM whom, t may concern:
Be it known that I, JACOB RITTER, a citizen of the United States, residing in New York, borough of Manhattan, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Olalsps, of which the following is a specification.
rThis invention relates to certain improvements in the clasps for chatelaines and other articles,forwhieh Letters Patent were granted to me on July S, 1902, No.`704,212, said improvements being designed with a View to nso simplify the construction ofthe clasp and permit its more convenient operation from the upper or front portion `of the same, and for this purpose the invention relates to aclasp comprising a suspension-hook, a spring-clip attached at one endto the lower part of thehook and adapted by its resilience to retire from the rear leg of the hook, a laterallymovable cam plate or leverpivotally mounted upon the hook andV carrying a cam device adapted to engage thespring-clip, and a faceplate for said hook, saidlever being extended through a slot in the` upper end of the suspension-hook or through thehook land front plate, so as to beoperated Vfrom the upper front part of the clasp.
The invention relates, further, to certain d etails of construction and combinations of parts, which will be fully described hereinafter and iinally pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a front elevation of my improved clasp. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a front view of a modified form of the clasp. Figs. 4 and 5 are vertical trans,- verse sections, drawn on Aa larger scale, of the clasp shown in Figs. l and 2, showing the spring-clip respectively in open and in locking position. Figf `isavertical transverse section of the clasp shown in Fig. 3 on line 6 6, Fig. 3; and Figs. 7, 8, and 9 are horizontal sections respectively on' lines 7 7, Fig. 4, 8 8, Fig. 5, and 9 9,`Fig. 6. l
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to the drawings, A represents an ordinary suspension-hook, such as is commonly usedfor, suspending chatelaines or other articles. The lower front portion a of the hook is provided with a pivoted keeper or eye C, `from which the suspension-ring of the chatelaine or other article is suspended. To the lower front portion dof the suspensionhcok A is riveted a spring-clip D, the back- Wardly-bent upper end d of which is serrated, said spring-clip being actuated by a laterallymovable cam-plate B, which is pivoted at its lower end at s to the lower main portion of the suspension-hook and provided with a cam b, that engages the spring-clip, the latter being provided with raised portions b2, so as to permit the ready riding of the cam device upon the same. The upper end b' of the laterally-movable cam-plate B is extended through a slot s' in the upper end of the suspension-hook A to some distance above the saine, so as to form a lever by which the camplate can be operated,`the slot in the upper end of the suspension-hook serving for limiting the oscillating motion of the cam-plate. To the front portion of the suspension-hook is'v attached an ornamental front plate E, which is covered with leather E' or ether suitable material. In place of extending the upper end 0i' the cam-plate through the upper end ofthe suspension-hook above the same and the front plate it may be bent forward in the shape of a lip e and pass through coinciding arc-shaped slots e in the upper end of the suspension-hook and the front plate, as shown in Figs. 3 and 6, the cam-plate being operated in one case by taking hold of the upwardly-projecting end b of the cam-plate, while in the other case it is operated by taking hold of the forwardly-projecting end e of the same. When the plate is moved in this manner into locking position, its cam device engages the spring-clip and forces its serrated end cl into engagement with the belt or other article which is placed between the spring-clip and therear leg a. of the suspension-hook A". Whenl the" springclip is released by moving the cam-plate in opposite direction,the resiliency of the springclip causes the serrated end to 4retire from the rear leg of the hook, so as to permit the clasp to'be readily removed from the belt or other article to which it is applied. The arc-shaped slot is of such size that the lateral motion of` the cam-plate is limited thereby,so that when it is placed in one position its camwill en-` gage the spring-clip and clamp the suspen- IOO sion-hook to the article from which it is suspended or release it therefrom when the camplate is moved in the opposite direction. The rear leg af of the hook may be provided with depressions d2, so that the belt or other article is firmly held between the serrated end of the spring-clip and the depressions d2, creating thereby a friction between the belt, suspension-hook, and spring-clip.
My improved clasp for chatelaines and other articles has the advantage that the cam-plate is arranged separately from the front plate and is operated from the upper or front end of the clasp, which permits the easier operation of the clasp when the clasp heretofore patented by me is used, while it also simpliies the construction, and thereby cheapens the clasp.
Myimproved clasp is adapted for clasps of large and small sizes for different articlessuch as necktie-clasps, cu and collar holders, dac.
Having thus described my invention, I
claim as new and desire to secure by Lettersv Patentl. A clasp, consisting of a suspension-hook, a spring-clip attached at one end to the hook and having its opposite end provided with serrations, and a laterally-movable cam-plate pivoted to the lower front portion of said hook and provided with a cam device adapted to engage the spring-clip, said cam-plate passing through a slot at the upper part of the suspension-hook to the outside of the saine, substantially as set forth.
2. Aclasp,consistingofasuspension-hook, a spring-clip attached at one end'to the hook and having its opposite end provided with serrations, and a laterally-movable cam-plate pivoted to the lower front portion of said hook and provided with a cam device adapted to engage the spring-clip, the upper end of said cam-plate passing through an arcshaped slot at the upper end of the suspension-hook and front plate, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as inyinvention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JACOB RITTER.
