PENCIL-CLASP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sent. 10. 1907.
4 following is it full, clear, and exact description.
This invention is designed to provide an ellicient clasp for holding a pencil or like inooth surface article in apocket against liability of escape from the pocket.
The invention consists of n. socket-piece, which may or may not be clast ic, to receive the pencil, and a spring serving the double purpose of retaining the pcucil in the socket-piece and grasping the edge of the pocket to prevent loss of the pencil, the construction of the spring being such, substantially as herein-alter particularly described and claimed, that its pencil-engaging element operates independently of the pocket-engagement element and is always in directengagement with the pencil both when the device is in the pocket and out of the pocket.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrating the in- Vmition, in the several ligurcs of which like parts are similarly dc. "Hated, Figure .l is aperspective View. Fig. 2 is a sid :lcvation showing the pencil in place in dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a front elcvation showing the pencil in place in dotted lines. Fig, l is a, top plan View.
The whole device may be made of wire with a socketpiece 1 formed of several coils, which nnty be, though not ol ncc ssity, elastic, or the socket-piece may be of other material, and in any case it is 'adapted to freely receive a. pencil or other like article to be carried in. the pocket.
Projecting from the socket-piece and rigid with it is a limb 2 bent back upon itself and having the free limb 3, which terminates in 21 bar 4 extending transversely across the socket-piece. The part composed oi members 2 and 3 is bent so {LS to mnstitute 2t hook to be hooked on to the edge or it pocket. The limb 3 is a spring lever and its bar 4 a sort ol i'ulcrunt bearing against the "ncil and thereby transmitting the force of the spring to the pencil to hold it in forcible engagement with the socket-piece. By bending the limb 2' more or less tension maybe imparted to the limb 3. It is intended that the bar 4 shall be normally forced over the socket-piece by the resilience or tension of the spring limbs, and must be displaced by the pencil in entering the socket-piece, and in this way the tension of the limbs is utilized to hold the pencil in place in the socket-piece and is further utilized to lirnily grasp the edge of the pocket between the limbs and the pencil.
liy the construction described, it; will be seen that the limbs 2 and 3 constitute a hook or fastening the device and its attached pencil to the edge of a pocket and a pencil engaging spring combined.
What I claim is:
l. A pencil clasp, havinga socket-piece to rcccive the pencil, and a combined hook and pencil-en ng spring. said s; ring' having a liar extending transvcrscly across the socket to engage the pencil directly both when tho book is and is not engaging the pocket.
2. A, pencil clasp, lntvine; a socket-piece to receive the poncil. and :1 combined hook and .pcncilrng'ag'iug spring, said spring having-nv lixcd limb and a free limb, the latter tcrminntinn' in a bar projecting crosswisc of the socketpiucc. said bar adapted to cngau'c lhc pcncil directly both when the book is and is not engaging the pocket.
I). A pencil clasp, constructed of wire. and having a. coil co "ituting tho socket piece, a limb projecting from and rigid with the coil and returned as :1 (rec limb toward lhc coil and having a terminal bar crossingthe coil, said lcrminal bar adztplcd to constantly engage thepcncil both whcn in and outpl the pocket.
--l. A pencil lasp, having a socket-piece to receive the pencil. and a mmbined hook and pencil Jig-aging spring, said spring having :1 tixcd limb and a free limb, the latter terminating in lntr projecting crosswise ol the socket; piece. the free limb capable ot adjustment. to vary its ctl'cctive tension.
