Description

- UNITED STATES LACE-FASTENER.
Patented April 26, 1904.
PATENT OFFICE.
v SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 758,366, dated April 26, 19 04. Application filed April 30, 1903. Serial No. 154,940. on model.)
To all whom zit may concern/.-
-Be it known that I, CLARENCE O. JoHNsoN,
I of Albany, in the county of Albany and State of New York, have invented a certain newand useful Lace-Fastener, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its object the production of a lace-fastener which is particularly simple in construction and highly efiective and durable in use; and to this end it consists in the combinations and devices hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
In describing this invention reference is had to the accompanying drawings, in which like characters refer to corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is aface view of the upper end of a shoe-tongue, the ends of a lace, and my lacefastener operatively engaged with said parts.
Figs. 2 and 3 are sectional views taken, respec- ,a suitable support, as a shoe-tongue 3. and a movable clamping member 4 for detachably securing the lace 5 to the base 1. Said base is usually composed of a flat plate or main part formed of sheet metal engaged with the front face of the tongue 3 and is formed integral with the clamping member 2, which is here shown as a spring-arm extending downwardly from the upper end of the base 1 and detachably engaged with the rear face of said shoe-tongue 3. It will be understood, however, that the base 1 may be secured to any other desirable support instead of the tongue 3.
The clamping member 4 is preferably formed of sheet metal. Its upper end is pivoted to the like end of the base 1, and its lower end is formed with an elongated slot 6. A suitable locking member 7 holds the clam ping member 7 4 in operative position, and is here shown as having one end journaled in the base 1 on an axis arranged at substantially right angles with the axis of the clamping member 4 and as having its other end provided with an elongated head 8, which readily passes through the slot 6 and may be arranged at right angles with said slot and engaged with the outer face of the clamping member 4 by moving the locking member a quarter-turn on its axis.
In Fig. 4 I have illustrated a modified construction of my lace-fastener comprising a base 10, having a substantially U-shaped upper end engaged with opposite faces of the shoe-tongue 11, and a clamping member 12, having its upper end pivoted to the base 10 and provided with a cam 13, movable through a slot in the base into engagement with the' shoe-tongue 11 for clamping the lace-fastener to said tongue and having its lower end detachably engaged by a locking member 14 for holding the clamping member in operative position.
In one use of my lace-fastener the ends of the lace 5 are lapped upon the base 1, as shown in Fig. 1, the free end of the clamping member 4 is moved toward the base 1 until the intermediate portion of said member 4 engages the ends of the lace 5 and firmly clamps the same against the base 1, and the locking member 7 is moved on its axis for engaging the head 8 with the clamping member 4 in order to hold the same in operative position.
The fastener shown in Fig. 4 is particularly designed to be used in connection with laces in the end portions of which rows of openings are provided. In this use of the device the member 12 is passed through the registering opening in the lace ends 15, lapped upon the what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a. lace-fastener and in combination, a base, and two clamping members extending from the same end portion thereof, located on opposite sides of the base and movable relatively thereto toward and from the same, substantially as described.
2; A lace-fastener comprising a base consisting of a main part engaged with a face of the support for the fastener, and a spring-arm for engaging the opposite face of said support, a clamping member for detachably securing the lace to the base, said clamping member having one end pivoted to the base and its other end provided With a slot, and a locking member journaled in the base and provided with a head movable through the slot in the clamping member and having a face for engaging an outer face of said clamping mem- 5 my name, in the presence of two attesting 20 Witnesses, at Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga, in the State of New York, this 2d day of April, 1903.
