HEADED FASTENING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 27, 1906.
Application filed August 12, 1905. Serial No. 273,911.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EVERETT T. HoUsE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Headed Fastening Devices, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has relation, broadly and generally, to new and useful improvements in headed fastening devices, and more particularly to those of the character or type known as tacks, although it will be understood from the following description of the invention that the same is readily applicable to all forms of headed fastening devices.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a fastening device having the general features of a tack with a head of sightly and ornamental appearance whereby it will be particularly adapted for use in connection with textile fabrics, such as carpets, tapestries, and upholsterings.
A further object is to provide a fastening device of the character set forth with a head the visible portion of which may be made of a textile material, which head will be extremely simple in construction and inexpensive of manufacture.
A further and important object of the invention is to provide a fastening of the general character mentioned with a soft and resilient head which will not mar or deface any polished surface which may come in contact with the upper portion thereof.
The invention resides in providing afastening device consisting of a shank formed with an enlargement, with a head comprising a disk mounted on the shank beneath the head, and an upper disk disposed above said enlargement, with its lower surface in substantial facial contact with the upper face of the lower disk and means for securing said disks together.
I have fully and clearly illustrated my invention in the accompanying drawings, to be taken as a part of this specification, and wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of a structure embodying my invention. vertical central transverse section. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the several parts. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a slightly-modified form of the invention. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the invention, illustrating, by way of Fig. 2 is a.
example, the susceptibility of the head to ornamentation.
Referring to the drawings by numerals of reference, 1 designates a fastenin device, shown as consisting of a tack of we l-rrnown form having a shank 2, sharpened at its lower end to provide a penetrating-point 3 and formed with an enlargement or head 4 at its upper end, the upper face of said enlargement being roughened or serrated, as at 5, for a purpose to be presently set forth.
The tack of the form just described and as shown in the drawings is provided with a head of novel construction, which constitutes the important feature of my invention. This head, as shown in the present instance, consists of a plate or disk 6, of flexible textile material, preferably felt, which for its body, its resiliency, and for the reason that it will not ravel renders it particularly adapted for this purpose. This disk 6 is formed with a central opening 7, which receives the shank 2 of the tack, said disk being moved up into close engagement with the under side of the enlargement 4 on the tack, as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings Arranged above the disk 6 is an upper plate or disk 8, preferably of felt, the under side of which is placed in facial contact with the upper side of the lower disk 6, and between said contacting faces is interposed any suitable adhesive or cementitious substance 9, by means of which the disks are united.
It will be seen that, inasmuch as the disks are formed from an absorbent textile material, such as felt, when the adhesive or cementitious substance is placed between them and they are pressed together said substance will be absorbed by the disks to a degree so that the disks are united to form practically a single block, in which the enlargement on the tack is embedded, which block is securely maintained on said enlargement under ordinary conditions of use.
In Fig. 4 of the drawings I have shown a form of the invention in which the lower disk instead of being formed of the felt consists of a block or disk of wood, which may be employed to advantage where it may be required or desired to give the head greater stiffness and body than it would have were both disks formed of the textile material.
One of the advantages of the invention as above set forth is that it ermits of a wide range of variation of the orm of the head,
owing to the fact that it may be easily out to any form desired. While I have shown the disks for the purposes of this application as being round or circular in form, it is obvious that they may be given other forms or contours for the purpose of ornamentation, as the fancy may dictate. For instance, I have shown the disks in Fig. 5 as being scalloped.
The upper surface of the enlargement 4 is preferably serrated, as heretofore mentioned, in order that the cement will more efficiently cause the under side of. the disk 8 to adhere to said enlargement.
It will be apparent that when the fastening is driven into bodies having highly polished surfaces, such as fine woods, such surfaces will not be defaced or destroyed owing to the contact of the under side of the head therewith, as the latter is soft and resilient and can under no ordinary circumstances injure the surface. Nor will a polished surface coming into contact with the upper portion of the fastening device be defaced or destroyed, as the latter is soft and resilient and can under no circumstances injure the said surface.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A cushion-headed fastening device, comprising a shank having an enlarged portion, a disk on said shank beneath said enlarged portion and an upper disk of cushioning material disposed over the enlarged portion and in facial contact with the first mentioned disk, said disks being secured together on their contacting faces by a cementitious substance.
2. A cushion-headed fastening device, comprising a shank having an enlarged portion, a
disk on said shank beneath said enlarged portion and an upper disk of flexible textile cushioning material disposed over the enlarged portion and in facial contact with the first-mentioned disk, said disks being secured together on their contacting faces by cementitious substance.
3. A cushion-headed fastening device, comprising a shank having an enlarged portion, a disk on said shank beneath said enlarged portion, and an upper disk of cushioning material dis osed over the enlarged portion and in faciaFcontact with the first-mentioned disk, and means to secure said disks together.
In testimony whereof I afliX my signature A in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
