Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
FRANK H. WEST, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND.
CARPET-FASTENER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK I-I. Wns'r, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore city in the State of Maryland, have invented a new and useful Carpet-Fastener, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in carpet fasteners, and the objects of my improvements are, first, a one piece with a single point at each end stair carpet fastener thus being cheap in construction; and second, a stair carpet fastener neat in appearance and simple in application. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a front view of my improved carpet fastener; Fig. 2, is an edge view of my improved carpet fastener or a view taken at right angles to that shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 3, is a section of stairs showing the carpet and the fastener being applied; and Fig. 4, shows a section of stairs with the carpet on, and the fastener in place.
Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The fastener consists of point 1, point 2, and body 8, and is made of spring material such as stamped sheet metal.
In applying the device to the carpet the latter is stretched over the projecting edge of the tread of the step after which point 1 of the fastener is engaged therewith and forced upwardly into the under side of said Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 13, 1908.
Patented Mar. 1, 1910.
Serial No. 448,396.
projecting edge of the step after which the fastener is sprung outwardly or bowed and point 2 of the same is engaged with the carpet. The fastener is now pressed inwardly thereby forcing the point on the lower end of the same into the tread of the next step below adjacent to the riser of said step. In pushing or forcing the fastener back the same will be straightened out thereby stretching the carpet across the riser and at the same time firmly securing the carpet to the next step below.
A fastening device of this character may be quickly applied and removed thus greatly facilitating the laying and taking up of the carpet. The attaching points of the fastener being small and sharp will not injure or disfigurc the carpet as is frequently done by the use of the usual fastening means.
I am familiar with the U. S. Patent Number 807,232 and claim not-hing set forth in said patent.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A carpet fastener consisting of, two points oppositely disposed in combination with an intervening uniformly flexible body between each of said points.
