PATENT OFFICE.
CHRISTIAN F. LINN, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
ARM-CLASP FOR CARRYING PACKAGES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 787,520, dated April 18, 1905.
Application filed July 30, 1904. Serial No. 218,944.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRIs'rIAN F. LINN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Arm-Clasps for Carrying Packages, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improved armclasp for carrying packages, more particularly adapted for the use of ladies while shopping or the like.
My object is to provide an improved means which can be placed over the arm, and thus suspend the package therefrom, without the l: Ibility of the package rotating, while at the same time the hand is left free.
To this end my invention consists in a loop of wire or other springy material with its ends spaced apart sufliciently to prevent the package from rotating, the ends having cordengaging hooks whose extremities are located adjacent the body of the loop to provide contracted cord-entrances to the openings of the hooks.
In order that my invention may be fully understood, I will proceed to describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side view of my improved armclasp for carrying packages, showing the package-cord engaged with inturned hooks. Fig. 2 is a side view showing a modification in which the middle part is flattened and the cordigaging hooksare inturned and located within the arm-clasp. Fig. 3 is a side view of another modification in which the cord-engaging hooks are outturned. Fig. 4 is a side View of still another modification in which the cordengaging hooks are provided with outturned extremities and-inturned and located within the arm-clasp and provided with an advertising attachment at the middle part. Fig. 5 is a top view of the arm-clasp, showing the flattened middle part upon which an advertisement may be displayed. Fig. 6 is a detail side view showing an arm-clasp in which the ends are overlapped and spaced apart, the position of the package-cord being shown in 5 dotted lines.
In carrying out my invention, as shown in Fig. 1, I provide a loop 6 of stiff wire or other springy material having cord-engaging hooks 7, which are first bent outwardly, as at 8, and then inturned to provide contracted cord-entrances9 between their extremities and the necks 10 to receive the cord 11. If preferred, the cord-engaging hooks 12 may be inturned within the loop, as shown in Fig. 2. As shown in Fig. 3, the cord-engaging hooks 13 are outturned instead of inturned; but in the position seen in Fig. 1 the cord-engaging hooks may also be inturned within the loop, as shown in Fig. 4, so as to provide eyes 14-, having extremities 15 curved away from the body, so as to guide the cord into the eyes 14. The middle part 16 of the loop 6 may be flattened to receive an advertisement, as shown in Fig.
5. Instead of this flattened middle part 16 a broad flat strip 17 of tin or other suitable metal for carrying an advertisement may be attached by clips 17 a to the loop, as shown in Fig. 4.
In Fig. 6 I show a manner of overlapping the ends 19 of they loop so as to space the inturned cord-engaging hooks 20 apart and locate them on the outside of the loop, this form of structure being important if it is desired to provide an arm-clasp of very light thin wire.
In use the arm-clasp is slipped over the arm of the wearer, and thus leaves the hand free for use, and this freedom of the hand is especially important for ladiesin shopping, as it permits them to use both hands, which is a great convenience.
What I claim is An arm-clasp for carrying packages, formed of a circular loop of springy material, with its ends spaced apart sufficiently to prevent the package from rotating, the ends having cord-engaging hookswhose extremities are located adjacent the body of the loop to provide contracted cord-entrances to the openings of the hooks.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHRISTIAN F. LINN.
