GARMENT-HOOK.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 6, 1907.

i Application filed June 24,1905- Serial No. 266,864.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that DAVID ArsTEIN, a citizen of the United States and a resident of Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Hooks, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to trouser or pant hookspsuch as are used on the waist band to connect the same and close the fly.

The purpose of the invention is to produce a simple and durable device that can be conveniently and cheaply manufactured from sheet metal, and further one that can be quickly and securely attached to a garment without sewing.

Upon the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification similar characters of reference denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several figures and of which,

Figure 1, shows a front view of my improved hook and loop. Fig. 2, is an end or side edge view of the hook shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3, is a side view of the loop shown in Fig. 1. and Fig. 4, is a modified construction of loop.

Referring in detail to the characters of reference marked upon the drawings A indicates the hook as a whole and B the loop member. The hook proper is stamped out of and bent up from sheet metal, and comprises a body or back portion 0 and a rounded free end or tongue portion d which is bent back from the body portion and parallel therewith. The body of the hook is of substantially a triangular shape, having its central part cut away as at e. The said body is provided with means for its attachment toa garment which consists of a pair of shouldered spear points f located central oi the hook, extended into the opening of the body but deflected slightly to one side as clearly shown in Fig. 2, and containing shoulders f to prevent its withdrawal after having been inserted through the fabric. In practice these points are inserted in and through the garment and may be bent over and clenched back tosecurely hold the hook in place without sewing. In addition to these points I provide at the several corners of the back additional points q (see Fig. 1,) which like the points f are stamped from the stock of the body and so deflected as to insure their engagement with the garment when the hook is inserted in the waist band of a pair of trousers, they are also adapted to be turned over and down upon the garment, for attachment as seen in dotted lines Fig. 2.

The loop member B is provided with shouldered and pointed ends h for inserting through the garment and which may be turned over and down for the securement of the loop to a garment. In Figs. 1 and 3 the said loop contains points 71/ for engagement with a garment, similar to points q in the body and like them adapted to be turned back for fastenings. Fig. 4 indicates a loop with plain pointed ends deflected back as in the process of attachment to a garment.

Having thus described my invention what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

1. A garment hook of the class described formed of sheet metal, and comprising substantially a triangular shaped body cut away in its central portion, having an integral tongue deflected therefrom, a pair of shouldered spear points extended into said cut away central portion with their points deflected to one side, and additional points deflected from the several corners of the body to engage a garment and adapted to be clenched buck thereon.

2. In a garment hook, the combination with a loop formed of sheet metal containing shouldered and pointed ends with engaging points h located therein, 01 a hook member comprising a triangular shaped body cut away in its central portion and having an integral tongue deflected therefrom and a pair of shouldered spear points extended into said cut away central portion with their ends deflected to one side, and additional points deflected from the several corners of the body to engage a garment and adapted to be clenched back thereon.

Signed at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut this 21st day of .Tune, A. 1)., 1905.
