WVILLIAM A. SLOAN, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.
HAlR-FASTEN ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 722,260, dated March 10, 1903.
Application filed May 13, 1901. Serial No. 59,935. (No model.) 7
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, W'ILLIAM A. SLOAN, of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hair-Pins; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making.
a part of this specification.
This invention consists in the construction of the hair-pin of one piece of spring-steel wire or other elastic material bent at the center a, forming a U shape, the ends of the U curving outward, forming arcs b b. The wire is bent again, forming arcs at c c, then merging into two straight tines d d, touching at e 6 near its ends, which are pointed and bent outward at the point of contact. The object in having the ends bent outward is to cause the hair-pin to automatically open when inserted in the hair.
The elastic material from which the pin is made serves to keep it in position when once inserted. The narrow U-shaped part serves to make the hair-pin practically invisible. As the wide part c c displaces hair on being inserted, it will have a tendency to close over the hair-pin at b b when inserted. This also helps to hold the pin in place.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A spring hair-pin formed of one piece of spring-wire or other elastic material in such a manner as to leave a U-shaped top a the ends of the U being bent outward in an arc of a circle I) b merging into are c c then continuing into two straight tines d d and touching near their ends which are pointed and bent outward at their point of contact 6 c.
2. The herein-described hair-pin, the same comprising a pin with a plurality of members meeting at the top in a curve, said curve opening outward into a smaller curved portion or closed loop, substantially as set forth and described.
3. A hair-pin having a comparatively narrow and elongated loop at the head, and having the legs bent outward on each side from said loop, and then bent downwardly to complete the hair-pin, substantially as and for the purpose set forth and described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
W. A. SLOAN.
