LOUlS THEODOR SIMON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
Letters Patent No. 90,881, dated .Tu-ne 1, 1869.
IMPROVED CLOTHES-PIN.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I,.LOU1s Trrnopon SIMON, of the city, county, and State of New' York, have Ainvented a new and improved Clothes-Pin; and I do hereby dev clare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specifica'- tion, in which drawing- Figure l represents an inside view of one of the jaws of my clothesipin detached.
Figure 2 is a similar view 'of the other jaw.
Y Figure 3 is aside view of the clothes-pin, when put together ready for use.
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to a clothes-pin, composed of two jaws, which are united by a pivot, and subjected tothe action of a spring, which is situated in cavities in the adjoining faces of the two jaws, and coiled round their pivot, the ends of said spring being dropped in lghe adjoining faces of the jaws in such a manner, that by the action of said spring, the jaws are-closed, while kthe spring,'being enclosed in a cavity in the adjoining facesv of said jaws, does not interfere with the operation of the clothes-pin; and, furthermore, said spring being dropped in its place loosely, does not involve much labor, and the construction of the clothes-pin is materially simplified.
In the drawing- The Schedule referred to :in these Letters Patent and making part 0f the same.
` The letter A designates a clothes-pin, which is coinposed of two jaws, B O, united by a pivot, a.
Round this pivot is coiled a spring, b, and this spring is Isituated in cavities c, formed in the adjoining faces ofthe jaws, as' shown in gs. l and 2 of the drawing.
The ends of the spring b drop into recesses d, 'which extend frolnthe cavities c, and which are so adj-usted that the ends of the spring have to be sprung'into them, land that by the action of said spring the two v jaws are closed.
When the jaws are opened, the tension of the spring is increased, and any-article placed between said jaws is firmly retained. The spring b being dropped loosely into the cavities c and recesses d, requires no fastening, and the whole construction of the clothes-pin is thereby materially simplified.
I do not claim broadly as my invention the combiv
