UMBRELLA-RIB RETAINER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 761,032, dated May 24, 1904.
A Y Application filed .Tuly 17, 1903. Serial No. 165,994. (N0 model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be`it known that I, WILLIAM W. CLIMEN; SON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Honeybrook, in thevcounty of Chester and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Umbrella-Rib Retainer, of which the, following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain improvements in devices of that class for securing umbrellas and parasols in closed position.
The principal object of the invention is to provide an improved form of tassel cord or tape which while retaining its ornamental character may also be utilized for encircling and holding together the tips of the umbrellaribs, so that the umbrella or parasol may be held closed without actually rolling the cloth.
A further object of the invention is to provide a rib-securing device which may be readily applied to the ribs without danger of scratching or otherwise marring the enamel.
A still further object of the'invention is to provide a tassel cord or tape with fastening means so arranged and disposed as to permit of the convenient Jfastening of the ribs and at the same time to utilize one of such fastening means for the purpose of securing the tassel cord or tape to the umbrella-stick and,
further, to utilize such fastening means to prevent twisting of the tassel cord or tape.
With these and other objects in view, as will more fully hereinafter appear, the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportions, and minor details of the structure may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of i the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of an umbrella-rib retainer constructed and arranged in accordance with the invention, a portion of the umbrellastick being shown. Fig. 2 is a similar view of the device detached. Fig. 3 is a sectional plan view of the device, drawn to an enlarged scale.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to indicate corresponding' parts throughout the several iigures of the drawings.
The ordinary tassel cord or tape of an umbrella or parasol is, as a rule, of a purely-ornamental character and is seldom employed as a securing means.
In carrying out the present invention the tassel cord or tape is supplied with fastening devices that will not only hold the cord or tape in place on the stick, but will also prevent twisting or tangling and at the same time may be utilized for holding the tips of the ribs together without detracting from the ornamental appearance of said cord or tape.
In the drawings, l indicates a section of tape of suitable length, the tape -being bent at a central point and its two ends secured together, each end being provided with an ornamental tassel or cone 2.
The tape is provided with a fastening device comprising the usual male member 4 and socket 5, the bases of these two members being secured to both layers of the tape at such distance apart as will permit of their coming into securing position after encircling the tips of the umbrella-ribs. By securing the two layers of the tape together in this manner the tape is kept perfectly iat and is not liable to become twisted or tangled or to curl, as in the case of tape hanging free. The stud 4 is secured to the two layers or folds of tape at such a distance from the fold-line as to per- Init the formation of a slip-loop 6 of convenient size for the reception of the umbrellastick, and this stud therefore serves in part as a means of securing the tape to the stick and renders it unnecessary to stitch the same in position or to detract from the appearance of the tape by tying the same. A further advantage of this securing means resides in thc fact that only the soft fabric comes into contact with the rib-tips, and there is no danger of scratching or otherwise marring the enamel, as is the case with the usual metallic caps employed for the purpose. It is to be further noted that even when utilized as a rib-securing means the tape does not lose its ornamental character.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is# l. An umbrella-rib retainer comprising a tape folded at an approximately central point and arranged to form a securing-loop for encirclingy the umbrella-stick, and spaced fastening means secured to said tape at points intermediate of the length of the latter.
