AGE BINDER.

W Im/ amm- UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ISAK OLSON, OF BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON.
PACKAGE-BINDER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ISAK OLSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bellingham, in the county of VVhatcom and State of Washington, have invented new and useful Improvements in Package-Binders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to package ties and more particularly to that class of devices employing a cord or other binding medium and a metallic terminal fastener attached thereto.
The object of the invention is to provide a device of this character adapted to encompass the package both transversely and 1011- gitudinally and have its end secured in the fastener.
The invention comprises a cord or other suitable means having attached at one end thereof a metal hook provided with a wedge opening to receive and retain the free end of the cord.
In the drawing :Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a package of letters showing my invention applied, and Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view of the terminal fastener. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 2 in the direction of the arrows.
As seen in the drawing, 1 is a package of letters around which is passed the cord 2 both longitudinally and transversely. One end of the cord 2 is secured to the eye 5 of the hook 3 and the opposite end is retained in the wedge opening 10. The hook 3 is formed of a strip of spring wire, which is bent on itself at 9 to form the two legs 4 and 6. Eyes 5 and 7 are formed respectively at the free ends of said legs 4 and 6. The loop 9 is covered by a cap 8 which serves as a finger hold when tying the package.
It will be obvious upon reference to Fig. 3
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 23, 1909.
Patented Dec. 13, 1910.
Serial No. 524,167.
that the edges 11 of the cap will serve as a stop preventing the cord passing into the circular recess of the loop 9, and also by reason of their angular nature will engage the cord and press same against the package, thus further avoiding the slipping of the cord.
To apply the device the hook is grasped at 8 between the thumb and finger of the left hand and the cord passed around the package, longitudinally and transversely. The free end of the cord is wedged between the legs 4 and 6, which securely retains the same.
It will thus be seen that a very neat, cheap and eflicient device is provided for tying bundles of merchandise or packages of letters. It will be seen that the free end of the cord is engaged at three points, namely, the legs and edge of the cap piece.
lVhat I claim is A package binder comprising a cord and a fastening device, said fastening device consisting of a single piece of wire bent on itself to form a long and a short spring member and providing a wedge opening therebetween, each of said spring members having eyes at their free ends, the cord being secured at one end of the eye of the longer spring member, the wedge opening adapted to receive the free end of the cord, and a cap piece secured to the fastening device at the juncture of the spring members and provided with biting edges adapted to bite into the cord and press said cord against the package.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ISAK OLSON.
