JOSEPH S. PAXTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
HAN D-STRAP FOR CARS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters'latent No. 766,378, dated August 2, 1904.
Application filed October 10, 1903.
I0 10M w/w'm it ntay concern:
Be it known that I, Josnru S. PAXTON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of the Bronx, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Hand-Strap for Cars, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The purpose of my invention is to provide a hand-strap for cars having a panel in which an advertisement may be inserted and removed at will, which advertisement may be made to appear upon one or on both sides of the panel.
A further purpose of the invention is to provide a frame for the advertising-panel, into which the panel may be readily introduced or from which it may be quickly removed, and also to provide a strap in two sections, an upper and a lower section, the upper section of the strap having a swivel connection with the frame of the advertisingpanel and the lower section a flexible connection with said frame.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is an inside perspective View of a portion of a side of a car, illustrating the application of the improved strap. Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation of the improved strap and its support, and Fig. 3 is a vertical section through the strap and support therefor, taken practically on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2.
A represents a part of the inner face of a side section of a car, and B the strap-supporting rail, which is usually run longitudinally of'the car at its sides near the clear story, as is shown in Fig. 1.
C represents the improved strap in its entirety, and the said strap is made up practically of four members, including an upper supporting member or section D, a lower hand-strap loop D, a frame D with which the two said sections of the strap are oppo- Serial No. 176,488. (No model.)
sitely connected, and a panel D adapted to be removably fitted in the aforesaid frame D The upper or supporting section 1) of the improved strap consists of a loop 12, which is of sufficient size to receive and slide upon the supporting-rail B, and at the lower portion of the loop 12 a ring 13 is loosely placed. An open loop let has a swivel connection with the said ring 13, the said open loop and ring being both preferably made of metal. The said open loop 1st is passed through a suitable aperture 14 at the upper corner of the frame 1) The frame D is of skeleton formation and may be constructed in any desired form. As shown, it is in a diamond or lozenge shape and, as stated, is attached at its upper corner to the upper supporting-section .D of the strap. Three of the members of said skeleton frame D are provided with'conneeting grooves or channels 10 in their inner longitudinal edges, and the fourth member is provided with a longitudinal slot 11, whereby the panel D may be readily slipped into the grooves or channels 10 through the slot 11 of the said frame. The said panel D may be opaque, or it may be made of transparent or translucent material, and any desired matter--forexample, advertising matter-can be produced upon one or upon both faces of the panel, as may be desired.
The lower grip-section D of the strap is likewise of loop formation and is preferably longer than the upper loop portion or member of the upper supporting-section D, and the lower grip or loop section D is connected with a preferably flexible member 15, which member is secured in any suitable or approved manner to the lower part or the lower corner portion of the frame D so that when the strap is in action the person grasping the lower hand-loop section .D may move or sway in any direction required by the movement of the car. The frame 1) is so secured to the upper and the lower sections 1) and D of the strap that it will always be suspended in a vertical position, and its side faces on which the advertising matter is produced will be in full view of the holder of thestrap and persons seated in the car.
This strap is exceedingly simple and durable in its construction and is as effective as the ordinary strap. In addition it presents an object for observation or study to the person hanging on to thestrap and others within sight of said strap.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A hand-strap for cars, consisting of an upper section adapted for attachment to a support, a lower grip-section and an interposed advertising-section, the upper supporting-section having a swivel connection with the said intermediate advertising-section, and
the lower grip-section a flexible connection with the lower portion of the intermediate advertising-section, the connection of the upper supporting-section and the lower grip-section with said intermediate section being at diametrically opposite sides of the intermediate section, as set forth.
2. A car-strap consisting of a skeleton frame having grooves on certain of its inner sides and a slot at one side of the frame above the center thereof leading into said grooves from the outer edge of the frame, a panel adapted to be entered through said slot into said grooves to be removably supported in the frame, a panel carried by the said frame and removable therefrom, an upper supporting-section of flexible material, a swivel connection between the upper supporting-section and the said frame, a lower hand-loop section,
and a flexible connection between the lower hand-loop section and the said frame, for the purposes set forth.
3. A hand-strap for cars, consisting of an upper strap adapted for attachment to a support, a lower strap adapted to be grasped by the hand, an advertising-section interposed between said straps, said section comprising a four-cornered frame having grooves on certain of its inner sides and a panel adapted to be carried in said grooves, one of the sides of said frame having a slot leading into said grooves from the outer edge of the frame to permit the ready insertion or removal of a panel, said slot being in one of the upper sides of the frame to cause the panel when entered within the grooves to be held therein by gravity, the upper strap being connected to one corner of said frame and the lower strap connected to the diametrically opposite corner, a swivel at the upper corner of said section for connection with the upper strap, and a strip of flexible material at the lower corner thereof for connection with the lower strap.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOSEPH S. PAXTON.
