SAFETY-HOOK FOR SUSPENDING DRAPERYOR ANALOGOUS PURPOSES.
SPECIFICATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 718,203, dated January 13, 1903.
Application filed March 19, 1902- To 00 whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, MARY ELENOR HIGGINS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Port Huron, in the county of St. Clair and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Safety-Hook for Suspending Drapery or Analogous Purposes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for itsobject the production of a fastener adapted to be employed in suspending various fabrics and garments and which may also be employed for suspending goods in display-windows and for the va-v rious purposes for which such devices are usually employed.
The device is constructed of a single piece of wire, and consists of a back or body 'portion 5, with one end bent outwardly into a guard in the form of a double-looped hook at 6, and thence coiled around the bar 5, as at 7, thence turned downward into a pin, as in Fig. 1, or into a hook, as in Fig. 3, or upward into a hook, as in Fig. 2.
When the device is formed with a hook, as in Figs. 1 and 3, the said hook portion is pref-' erably bent, as clearly shown in the said figures, so that it will more readily engage the articles to be suspended therefrom. In Fig. 3 the curved or bent portion of the hook 9 is held in contact with the coil 7 upon the bar or shank 5, so that it shall be adapted to hold and to retain securely by frictional contact between said hook and coil, as at the point 12, any substance that may be inserted between said hook and coil, such as a display or prize card or any other substance the nature of which renders it readily insertible between Serial No. 98,992. (No model.)
said hook and coil. The remaining portion of the strip of wire will be turned downward, as at 8, and will be long enough to adapt it to engage the loop 6 and be guarded thereby. At the point where the body portion 5 and holding portion 8 unite the wire may be formed into a coil 10 to increase the force of the spring action, and a similar coil may be formed at 11 between turns 7 and the hook 9, as in Fig. 3, if preferred, for the same purpose.
The order of arrangement might be reversed-that is to say, the pin 8 might be turned from the coiled portion 7 and the pin or hook 9 turned from the body portion 5- but this would be a more minor modification, which would not affect the action or the results produced.
This makes a very simple, cheap, and convenient article for use in suspending goods in display-windows or curtains, portieres, or other draperies and for the various purposes for which devices of this class are usually employed.
In Figs. 2 and 3 the guard-loop 6 is shown somewhat distended vertically, so as to increase the width of the guard to increase the protection to the point of the pin 8.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1. As a new article of manufacture, a drapery-suspension hook comprising a bar or body portion doubled upon itself and bent to form a catch and having a pin extending from its end'opposite to said catch and adapted to engage the latter, a portion of the bodywire extending from the catch being coiled upon the body-bar and extended from the latter to form a supporting member, substantially as set forth.
end and a catch at its opposite end, a coil snr- I my own I have hereto affixed my signature in rounding the said bar 01' body, and a curved supporting member, spring-pressed against said coil, the entire device being formed from 5 a single piece of Wire, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as she presence of two Witnesses.
MARY ELENOR HIGGINS.
