UNlTED STATES MORTON G. BUNNELL,
PATENT c rion.
or PQRTER, INDIANA.
HOOK AND EYE Patented Dec. 1, 1908.
To all whom iii-mo concern:
Be it known that l, Mon'ron G. BUNNELL', av citizen of the. United States of America, and resident of Porter, Porter county, indiana, hare invented a certain new and use l'ul Improvement in Hooks and Eyes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention contemplates an improved hook-audeye which. will not be liable to catch in the hair or clothing of the wearer and which will not be liable to be injured or impaired by laundering machinery.
ln the accompanying drawings-Figure l a plan of my improved hook-and-eye in a separated condition. Fig. 2 is a side cleva tion of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan of the same hooked together. Fig, 4t is av side elevation of the same hooked together.
As thus illustrated, the hook A is composed of a single length of wire bent to provide the following portions: an attaching loop 1; a side portion 2; an attaching loop 3; a front portion 1; a top portion 5; another top portion (3; another front portion 7 another front loop 8; another side portion 9.; and another rez r loop 10. It will be seen that the front portions' l and 'I extend from underneath the side portions 2 and 9, and that the end of the hook formed by the parallel portions 5 and 5 is in the plane of the rear attaching loops 1 and 10. This reduces the liability of the hook catching in the hair or clothing, and also reduces the liability of the hook being bent out of shape by launder,- ing nuichinery, as it is nearly flat.
The eye 13 is formed of a single length of wire. bent to provide the following portions: a rear attaching loop 11.; aside portion 12; a. front attaching loop 13; a cross piece or eye" 14; another front attaching portion or loop 15; another side portion 16; and an other rear attaching loop 17. It will be seen that the cross piece or eye 14 extends from above the side portions .12 and 1.6. With this construction and combination the rtions 1, l, 7, 10, 11, 12,16, and 17, as well the rear ends of the portions 2 and 9, the rear end of the hook formed by the portions and G, the rear sides of the loops- 3 and the frontsides of the loops 1% and 1.5, are all in the sai'ne plane and against the cloth when the hook and eye are hooked to gethcr. The portions i l, the front sides of the loops 3 and 5%, and the front ends of the portions 2 nd S), are at such time in the same plane just above, while the front ends and of the portions 5 and (5 are in a. still higher plane. The whole, however, presents a sub-- stantially [lat condition, and the tip or end 11$ of the hook does not tend to catch in the hair or clothing.
lt will be seen that all of the thread-loops wardly, and that both the eye and the hook are adapted to rest tlat upon the cloth or also be seen that the hook A consists of a single piecoof wire bent centrally of itself to provide a single hook-portion or bill 18 the end of which is disposed in the plane of the thread- loops 1 and 10, and straightened to lie flat on the cloth. lt will also be seen that the eye l5 consists of a single piece of wire bent centrally of itself 'to provide an eye-portion ll adapted to rest upon the portions l and T of the hook A, as shown more clearly in Figs. 3 and in this way the eye-portion of bill-loop lot is in a plane above the thread-loops l and l0, it and 17, and in the plane of the upper or inner portions of the thread- loops 3 and 8, 13 and 15, asshown in the drawings. \Vith this arrangement'the hook-andeye is not liable to catch in the hair or clothing of the wearer, and is not liable to be mashed or destroyed by laundering machinery. The sharp downwa-rd. dip or bend of the bill composed of theportions and 6 prevents the eye from moving up cl oscr-that is, prevents slack between the hook and the eye, and the straightened end portion of the bill lies flat on the cloth and makes hooking easy. Preferably, about half the length. of the bill is straightened to lie flat enthe cloth, as shown in the drawings. This not only makes hooking easy, but also prevents catching of the hook in the hair and clothing of the wearer. The sharp downward bend of the bill prevents ui'ihooking, and the. location of the straight portion of the bill in the plane of the side portions of the hook prevents catching of the same in the haiiyor clothing. lhuthermore, it. will be seen that the side portions 2 and t) and the rear thread loops 1 and it) serve to guard the tip or end of the bill-that is to say, it is obvious that the sides of the hook practically embrace the tip or end 'of the bill, thus prerentii'ig said 1, 3, 8, 10,11, l3, l5 and 17 project out fabric to which they are secured. It will l course, would not be the case should the l tip or end of the bill be lengthened to e iattaching loops 3 and 8 tion -01- bill, side the said side tend rearward beyond the ends of the side portions, and for this reason the said side portions of the hook must extend rearward at least as far as the tip or end of the bill. In other words, the tip or end of the bill must not extend beyond the rear ends of the two side portions of the hook. But the bill does not necessarily extend rearward as far as the side portions. The front portion of the hook or bill extends beyond the thread loops 3 and 8, and for this purpose the said loops are connected with the bill by means of the forwardly converging portions 4 and 7. The four thread loops for the hook serve to hold it firmly upon the cloth and prevent it from tilting or rocking thereon when subjected to the strain or pull of the eye. It will be seen that the cloth when stitched to the loops 1 and 10 is firmly supported directly beneath the tip or end 18 of the bill, so that it is necessary to press the cloth down from the tip of the bill in inserting the eye. lVith such construction it will be seen that the tip or end 18 of the bill will have no tendency to tilt up or leave the cloth when subjected to the pull of the eye. In'other.
words, the tip or end of the bill will rest on the cloth, and pulling or straining does not raise the tip or end of the bill away from the cloth. In fact, as the cloth is stretched or supported by and between the side ortions 2 and 9 for the full length of the bill,
and even more, the cloth only leaves the bill when forcibly pressed down to insert the eye. These and other advantages will be obvious to those skilled in the art. It may be stated, however, that the engaging portion of the eye is disposed in a plane above the tip or end of the bill, and. above the sides of the hook, so that both the eye and the hook are flat on the bottom and have no downward projections. Furthermore, the are so close to the loops 13 and 15 that a minimum of cloth is left loose between the hook and the eye, in closing together the edges of two pieces of a garment. Also with the arrangement shown, the hook is held down at both ends, and this is also true of theeye.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A hook-and-eye comprising a hook composed of a single length of wire bent centrally and doubled back on itself to provide a single hook-portion or bill, front and rear thread-loops at each side of said hookpor portions connecting the front loops with the rear loops, having for wa rdly converging front portions bent under portions and connecting the front loops with said hook-portion or bill, so that the forward or front portion of the bill extends beyond the front loops, the central bend forming the tip or end of the hook portion or bill being depressed to the plane of the. said rear loops, said rear loops extending rearward at least as far as the tip or end of the bill, and an eye consisting of a single length of wire bent centrally of itself to provide an eye-portion or bill-loop adapted to engage the said hook-portion or bill, front and rear thread loops for the eyeportion, portions bent under the eye-portion or billloop and connecting the front thread-loops thereof with the rear thread-loops of the same, the said thread-loops of the hook-andeyeall projecting outwardly and laterally,, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A hook-andeye comprising a hook composed of a single length of wire bent ce'ntrally and doubled back on itself to provide a single hook-portion or bill, threadloops disposed in the plane of the tip or end portion of said bill, said thread-loops extending rearward at least as far as the tip or end of the bill, and an eye consisting of a single length of 'wire bent centrally of itself to provide an eye-portion or bill-loop adapted to engage the said hook-portion or bill, the said engaging portion of the eye being disposed in a plane above the tip or end of the said bill, said eye being also provided with thread-loops disposed in the plane of the thread-loops on the hook, and the tip or end of said hook-portion or bill pointing rearward and being straightened to lie flat on the cloth, substantially as set forth.
3. A hook-and-eye having the bill thereof bent down and provided with an end portion adapted to rest on the cloth between and in the plane of two side portions, the tip or end of said bill pointing rearward, and said side portions being at least as long as said bill, whereby the bill does not project rearward beyond the ends of said side portions 105 the hook being fiat on the bottom, and the eye having an engaging portion raised above the plane of the end or tip of the bill.
4. A hook-and-eye comprising a hook provided with front and rear thread loops form- 110 ing side portions, a bill bent down to rest on the cloth at a point within the area be tween the four thread loops, the tip of the bill pointing rearward, and an eye adapted to be inserted between said side portions to engage underneath the bill, said front and rear l'oops" cooperating to hold the bill on the cloth, and to prevent either end of the hook from leaving the cloth."
