AARON C. HOLDEN, OF PITTSTN, PENNSYLVANIA.
STORM APRON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 745,613, dated December 1, 1903. Application filed September 16, 1903. VSerial No. 173,441. (No model.)
To 0.55 whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AARON C. HOLDEN, a resident of Pittston, in the county of Luzerne and State of Pennsylvania,have invented certain new and useful Improvements inV My invention relates to improvements in` storm-aprons, the object of the invention being to provide simple and efficient means by which the lower portion of the apron can be quickly and effectually applied to the dashboard of a carriage or wagon.
A further object is to provide a simple clamp for a storm-apron and to so attach it to the apron thatit will not be weakened by holes, thus permitting the use of light metal, and so that when applied to the dashboard the latter will not be marred.-
A further object is toprovide means for attaching a storm-apron to the dashboard of a carriage or wagon which shall be cheap to manufacture, which shall hold the apron in such position as to eectually shed water, and
which shall be efficientin all respects in the performance of its functions.
With these objects in view the invention consists in certain novel lfeatures of construetion and combinations and arrangements of parts, as hereinafter 'set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a view illustrating the application of my invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of the fastening device. Fig. 3 is a detail view. Fig. 4 is a face view of the apron.
1 represents a storm-apron which may be made of any suitable waterproof material and is provided at its upper end with straps 2,
and a detail description of one will therefore suffice forall. Each clamp comprises a cornparative light U -shaped spring 6 and a pocket 7, of heavy canvas or similar material, inclosing said spring. The pocket 7 is made tubular in form, and `this pocket, with its ends open, is secured to theA under face of the vvapron, near the lower edge of the latter, by
means of two or more rivets 8. Each of these rivets passes through one thickness of the pocket and through the material of the apron, the end of the rivet which appears on the outer or upper face of the apron being provided with a head 9, and the end of the rivet within the pocket is upset. set end of Vthe rivet and the pocket and between the'head of the rivet and the apron disks or washers 10 may be inserted to avoid all possibility of the rivets being pulled from the pocket or apron. When the pocket has thus been securely fastened to the apron, the
, U -shaped spring 6 is inserted thereinto,"after which the ends of the pocket will be closed by stitching or in any other desired manner. With the clamp thus secured to the-apron there will be no danger whatever of the clamp being pulled off or of its working loose, as is liable to occur were the pocket secured to the apron by stitching. The pocket will prevent the spring from marring the dashboard, and bythe use of the pocket as a means for securing the spring to the apron perforating the spring for the passage of rivets is avoided, and I am therefore enabled to use light metal for the spring. n l
Slight changes might be made in the details of construction without departing from the spirit thereof or limiting its scope, and
