SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 762,160, dated June '7, 1904.
I Application filed July '7, 1903. Serial No. 164;,531. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN W. FINCH, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Anguilla, in the county of Sharlgey and State of Mississippi, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes-Line Pins, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clothes-line pins; and it consists in a special pin of novel form whereby the clothes may be secured to the line more effectively than possible with similar fastenings as they have heretofore been constructed.
The invention, definitely stated, consists in the specially-constructed clothes-pin, which will hereinafter be fully described, and its features of novelty pointed out in the subjoined claims.
Reference is had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view illustrating my invention in use. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view showing the pin in position on the line ready for securing adjustment. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the pin adjusted to securing position, and Fig. t is a transverse sectional view through the reduced portion of the securing-pin.
In practicing my invention I employ an elongated body portion having a surrounding angular groove, the body portion being extended on one side of the angular groove, forming a handle adapted to be grasped, whereby securing of the clothes is facilitated.
The invention may be described in detail as follows: A denotes the clothes-line, having end supports B, and O my improved clothesfastening pin. The pin is formed into an elongated body portion and provided near one of its ends, D, wlth an angular groove E, havlng abrupt side walls, as shown.
In applying my pin the line A is coiled in the groove E, as shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 4. Now upon simply looping one end of the article to be dried over the line (see Fig. 2) and imparting rolling action to the pin along the line obviously the said looped end of the article will be rolled up into the groove and clamped therein by the confined coils of the line. Fastening of the article is made more secure through action of the abrupt side walls of the groove, which are spaced, adapted for bolding the lines coil against material endwise movement on the pin. The extension of the body portion has advantage in providing a handle adapted to be grasped, whereby rolling action imparted to the pin isfacilitated.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. As an article of manufacture a clothesline pin, having a circumferential groove having parallel sides, and a handle portion adapted to be grasped, substantially as described.
2. As an article of manufacture a clothesline pin with an elongated body portion having a circumferential groove near one end of the body portion, said groove having parallel sides adapted for receiving a coil in the line, and an extension of the body portion on one side of the said, groove providing a handle adapted to be grasped, the side walls of the groove being spaced, adapted for effecting confining and binding action, substantially as described.
