No. 800,499. PATENTED SEPT. 26, 1905. G. SHELANDER. CLASP.
APPLICATION FILED NOV. 21- 1904.
GUSTAF SHELANDER, OF FENDER, NEBRASKA.
CLASP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 26, 1905.
Application filed November 21, 1904. Serial No. 233,738.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GUsrAF SHELANDER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pender, in the county of Thurston and State of Nebraska, have invented new and useful improvements in Clasps, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clasps such as are designed particularly for use in connection with garters, drawers-supports, cufi's, and other articles of a similar character.
The objects of the invention are to simplify, improve, and strengthen the construction of such clasps; furthermore, to decrease the expense attending their manufacture.
\Vith the foregoing and other minor objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel form of blank and in the clasp constructed therefrom, as hereinafter particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, wherein is illustrated a practical embodiment of the invention, and in which like referencennmerals indicate corresponding parts, Figure 1 is perspective view of a clasp constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal central section thereof. Fig. 3 is a transverse section. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the blank from which the device is made. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the handle-lever by means of which the resilient jaws are forced into contact with each other.
For the sake of economy and ease of manufacture the improved clasp of this invention is constructed from a sheet-metal blank, such as illustrated in Fig. L, said blank preferably having enlarged end portions 1 2, formed with teeth or serrations 3. The end 1 of the blank is formed with a square or angular perforation 4, and the end 2 is formed with an elongated slot 5. The contracted central portion of the blank is provided with laterallyextending integral wings 6, each of said wings being formed, preferably, with an inclined side 7 and a straight side 8, the inclined side being toward the slotted end 2 of the blank and the straight side toward the perforated end 1. Each of the wings 6 preferably is formed with a perforation 9. In forming the completed clasp the blank is bent upon a line with the straight sides of the wings 6, so that the ends 1 and 2 lie adjacent to each other, and the wings 6 are located upon the end 2, said wings preferably being bent downward at an angle with respect to the clasp, so that they may be passed through the material of a suspender or the like and bent flat against the member 2 to hold the clasp in position, the perforations 9 in said wings serving to receive suitable sewing-threads whenever desired. The teeth or serrations 3 are bent toward each other, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The resiliency of the metal from which the blank is formed serves normally to hold the jaws 1 2 in separated position, and said jaws are moved together by the operation of a handle-lever 10, which is bent intermediate its ends, as shown at 11, and is formed with laterally-extending pins or projections 12. The handlelever 10 is passed through the slot 5 and angular perforation 4:, the pins or projections 12 serving to prevent said handle-lever from being drawn entirely through the slot 5. By pushing the handle-lever 1O flat down against the jaw 1 the clasp is shut.
The jaw 1, adjacent to the angular perforation 4:, preferably is provided with a resilient tongue 14, which is formed by making slits 15 in the material of said jaw and bending the tongue thus produced slightly away from the jaw, as shown in Fig. 2. The resilient tongue 1 serves to hold the handlelever more securely in locked position.
In its novel combination and arrangement of parts the clasp of this invention constitutes an improvement over prior devices of asimilar character.
The improved clasp is strong, simple, durable, inexpensive, neat, and compact in construction, as well as thoroughly efficient in operation.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is l. A clasp having jaws formed integral with each other, one of said jaws having a slot and the other having a perforation, and a handlelever extending through the slot of one jaw and perforation of the other, said lever having pins or projections in engagement with the slotted jaw to prevent the withdrawal of the lever through the slot.
V 2. Aclasp having jaws formed integral with each other, one of said jaws having integral perforated wings thereon, and being formed with a slot, and the other jaw having aperforation therein, and a handle-lever bent intermediate its ends and formed with pins or projections, said handle-lever extending through the slot of one jaw and the perforation of the other, and being adapted to be forced against the perforated jaw to shut the clasp, and said pins or projections being in engagement with the slotted jaw.
3. A clasp-blank having one enlarged end formed with a slot, and another enlarged end formed With an angular perforation, said blank having transversely-extending integral Wings, each formed With an inclined side to- Ward the slotted end of the blank, and a straight side toward the perforated end of the blank, each of said Wings having a perforation therein, and the arrangement of the slot in one end of the blank, and the perforation in the other end thereof being such that said slot and perforation lie adjacent to each other when the blank is folded upon a line coinciding with the straight edges of the Wings.
4. A clasp-blank having a slot in one end, a perforation in the other, and a resilient tongue adjacent to said perforation, said slot i GUSTAF SHELANDER.
