CUFF-HOLDER.
I that class of cuff-holders formed of springwire and bent into shape whereby to interlock at one end with the cuff and have the other end formed to grip the shirt-sleeve;
and primarily my invention seeks to pro- Vide a cuff-holder of the character stated of a simple and inexpensive construction, made of spring-wire and having the several parts correlatively so arranged and designed whereby the same can be uickly and economically manufactured, whic is.adjustable, easy to operate, and which has no rough portions and has its projecting members so arranged that the holder will not catch into the coatsleeve lining.
My invention consists in certain details of construction and peculiar combination of parts, all of which will be first described in detail and then specifically pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a perspective view which illustrates how my form of cuff-holder is applied to the cuff. Fig. 2 is a perspective view that illustrates the position of the holder after it has been applied to the cuff and fitted to grip the shirt-sleeve. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section taken substantially on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the holder, and Fig. 5 is a transverse section taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 3.
In the practical embodiment of my invention the holder is shaped up from a single piece of spring-wire, which is first bent upon itself to form two opposing members a b, which members near the point where the wire is looped or bent upon itself are twisted to- "ether to forma rigid shank Z, the point of beginning of the said twist being located sufficiently from the loop or bent part of the wire whereby to permit the spreading of the said looped or bent end to form a triangular hook or keeper O.
From the hook or keeper O the twisted portion is bent down for a short distance at right angles to the loop O to form a neck O for the hook O, and from the neck portion C it is bent at right angles and extended in a Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 6, 1905. Serial No. 281,602.

plane parallel with the hook or loop C to form the rigid shank portion proper.
At the end of the rigid or twisted shank portion the two wire members extend forwardly straight and in substantially parallel planes to form spring-fingers a I), as clearly seen in the drawings, and arranged at right angles with respect to the hook or keeper O. The inner end of the finger b terminates in an eye b through which the inner end a of the finger a passes, and the latter has its outer end a bent at right angles and in a direction parallel with the hook or keeper O, and the extremity of the bent member a ends in a bent prong a, normally forced under the tension of the finger a into an eye b formed on the extremity of the bent end I)" of the finger b, which end lies parallel with the bent member a and the two fingers a and b are so separated, as shown, that by compressing the two their ends 6 a become separated and the prong or pin end a is sprung out of the eye I), whereby to permit of readily slipping the separated ends over the tuck or fold of the shirtsleeve, it being understood that when thus slipped to engage the shirt-sleeve, pressure on the fingers a I) being released, the prong or pin enters the sleeve, tuck, or fold and firmly grips the same between it and the eye 6 From the foregoing, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, it is believed the manner in which the holder is used and its advantages will be readily apparent. It will be noticed that to apply, it is only necessary to slip the loop O, with its neck, through the opposing holes in the cuff, the hook or loop C passing through and lying fiat and crosswise against the outside of that cuff and opposite the end into which the said 9 loop or hook C was first entered, which positively locks that end of the holder within the cuff and makes it impossible to either pull or push that end out of the cuff when the holder is fastened to the shirt and held in that position. Thus positioned the body of the holder lies against the forearm part of the shirt and in such manner that the two ends a, and b can be easily gripped to separate their ends to slip them over the shirt edge or fold, and since the clamping ends are in a plane parallel with the hook or keeper C it follows that in pulling back the sleeve the pull is in the direction of the length of the holder and against the neck 0 of the hook O, thus preventing pulling the hook C out of the cuffholes. Furthermore, since the ends that grip the shirt-sleeve lie flatwise thereagainst and no rough or edged projections appear on the outer face of the holder there is no danger of the coat-sleeve hooking into or becoming torn by reason of contact with the holder during the putting on or taking off of the coat, and by reason of the peculiar construc tion and arrangement of the clamp or spring ends of the holder said ends cannot become loosened to release their grip by accidental pressure on the arm.
What I claim is 1. A cuff-holder of the character described, formed of a-single piece of spring-wire and comprising a twisted shank that terminates at one end in a neck projected at right angles from the shank and a loop-shaped hook that projects at right angles to the neck, the end of the twisted shank terminating in a pair of opposing spring-fingers, the ends of which are bent at right angles with respect to the shank and in a parallel relation, the extremities of said ends having clamping portions, as set forth.
2. A cuff-holder formed of a single strand of spring-wire bent upon itself, Whose bent or loop portion is formed into a triangularshaped hook, the bent members from the hook being twisted a portion of their length to form a shank, that part of the twisted shank next the hook being bent at right angles with respect to the hook to form a neck, the free ends of the bent members being separated and extended to form opposing springfingers, the extremities of which are bent at right angles in a plane parallel with the triangular-hook, the end of one of the bent fin gers terminating in an eye and the end of the other bent-finger portion forming a prong described.
3. A cuff-holder formed of a single strand of spring-Wire, doubled upon itself, its doubled end being formed into a hook, and then twisted to form a rigid shank, that portion of the shank next the hook being bent at right angles to the remainder of the shank, one of the bent members terminating at the end of the shank in an eye, the other member being projected through said eye, the two free ends being projected forward in the plane of the shank, and separated, said free ends forming spring-fingers, the extremitiesof the said fingers being bent at right angles and parallel with the hook at the other end and having fabric-clamping portions, as'set forth.
