Description

PATENTED SEPT. 18, 1906- P. G. LEWIS. SNAP HOOK.
APPLICATION FILED NOV. 6, 1905.
FREDERICK G. LEWVIS, OF WHEATON, ILLINOIS.
SNAP-HOOK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 18, 1906.
Application filed November 6, 1905. Serial No. 286-066.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRnDERIoK G. Lnwrs, a citizen of the United States, residing in Wheaton, in the county of Dupage and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Snap-Hooks, of which the following is a specification.
My object in this invention has been to devise a construction of snap-hooks which will be very much cheaper to manufacture than the snap-hooks now in use; and it consists in the novel features hereinafter set forth and which will be fully understood from the accompanying drawings.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a plan, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation, and Fig. 3 a perspective, of the invention.
Referring to the drawings, 5 represents the hook proper of the device, 6 the spring-tongue closing the entrance to the hook, and 7 the loop receiving the webbing or strap 8, to which the device is attached. The hook is integral with the tongue, both being formed of a single piece of wire, and it is desirable and convenient as well to make the loop from the same piece. The tongue is formed by one of the ends, the shorter one, and the hook is formed upon the other or longer one, and the shorter end is wrapped around the base of the longer one so as to completely encircle it, the loop being formed from an intermediate portion of the wire. By this construction the loop is absolutely prevented from opening and the tongue is rendered very firm, and the depressing of the tongue can have no tendency to open the loop. The points of both the tongue and the hook are preferably flattened, as shown, so that they may have broad surfaces where they come in contact, and the tongue is sprung up, as also shown, so it may normally form such contact. The wire used may be ordinary steel wire, as it gives suflicient resiliency to the tongue for many uses to which the hooks are applied.
I claim- The snap-hook made from a single inte ral section of wire having a loop on it forme in an intermediate portion of the section leaving ends of unequal length, the shorter end being bent around the base of the longer end so as to completely encircle the latter and thence extending upward and forming the tongue 6 and the longer end being bent to form a hook 5 meeting the tongue 6, the extremities of both ends being beveled or flattened to form suitable meeting or contact surfaces.
