ROBERT W. IVEY, OF NEW LONDON, NORTH CAROLINA.
PINLESS CLOTHES-LIN E.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 769,222, dated September 6, 1904, Application filed February 2, 1904. Serial No. 191,690. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ROBERT W. her, a citizen of the United States, residing at New London, in the county of Stanley and State of North Carolina, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pinless Clothes- Lines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has relation to improvements inclothes-lines wherein clothes-pins are dis pensed with and the line itself providing the holding device for the clothes hung or suspended therefrom, all as will be hereinafter more fully explained, and particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
The annexed drawings, to which reference is made, fully illustrate my invention, in which- Figure 1 represents a side view proved line. Fig. 2 is a top or plan view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a detail view showing one end of one of the sections.
Referring by letter to the accompanying of my imdrawings, A designates the clothes-line, which is formed of sections a a, linked to one another. These sections have an eye 6 at each end, that engage each other and form a link connection. After this eye is formed the wire is twisted at c'around the body portion and bent upward at d into a loop, which provides elasticity or spring for the spring-arm e, as
.well as a receiver for any ofthe clothing that may be forced inward toward the twisted portion 0, thus taking up the slack of the clothing upon the line and depositing the surplus fabric within the space provided by the loop d. This spring-arm is bent horizontally at f and contacts with the horizontal body portion, and the end 9 of said spring-arm inclines upwardly and outwardly, providing a throat for the ready insertion of the article to be hung upon the line, and the extreme end of said spring-arm is bent backward, as at it. As the ends of the sections of the line-zl 0., the twisted portions, eyes, and spring-arms are duplicates of one another, 1 deem it necessary to describe but one, which is above set thereof without the operator handling or manipulating the spring-arm, and my-device can be used in hanging curtains, canopies, or mosquito-netting for beds as well as for clothing and is a device simple in construction, durable, and cheap to manufacture.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The herein-described clothes-line comprising link-sections, each section provided with the spring-arm constructed with the throatopening, a straight horizontal portion, and upward and inwardly inclined portions forming aloop, said loop adapted to receive the surplus or slack of the clothing passed beneath the spring-arm, substantially as described.
In testimony whereofI have signed my name to this specili'cation'in presence of two witnesses.
ROBERT W.. IVEY.
