HAT-PIN PROTECTOR.
Specification of Letters Iatent- Patented 511116 13,1911.
Application filed February 17, 1913. Serial No. 544,444.
To all whom i!- moy concern:
Be it known that I, DANIEL FERGUSON, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at Ti hithourne, in the colony of Npwt'oundland, have invented new and usetul Improvements in Hat-Pin Protectors, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relatesto guards for pins and more particularly to hat pins, scarf pins and the like, the object of the invention being to provide means for engaging the pin body adjacent the point thereof for holding the pin in place and preventing its accidental displacement, said means also serving as a protection to the point of the pin.
\Vomens hat. pins frequently pro ect through the but when worn and are very dangerous especially in public places where persons are crowded together. The projected point is frequently a menace when the hat not being worn, for example in theaters and dressing rooms. a y
it is the primary object of the present invention to provide a guard which may be readily applied and removed with one hand and which, when applied will hold itself lirmly in place.
It is also an object of the invention to provide means for limiting the distance to which the guard may be slipped over the point cit-the pin to prevent the pin from projecting through the guard.
A still further object is to provide a device this character which shall be ornamental in its nature.
l z ith the above,.and other objects in view, which will be more apparent as. the description progresses, the invention resides in the novel construction and combination of elements hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings there has been illustrated a simple and preferred em bodiment of the improvement, and in which drawings, s
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an ordinary hat pin showing my improved guard in position thereon. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional View of the guard taken directly above the eccentric shield or plate. 8 is in similar view central. of the guard. Fig. t is a perspective view of one of the pins such as scarf pins or the like.
The numeral 3. designates the improved guard. This guard 3 as illustrated in Fig. 3 of the drawings comprises an ornamental outer casing designated by the numeral 4. The casing may be of any desired or preferred formation and the same is provided with an open, preferably elongated mouth 5 which is adapted for the reception of the point .of the pin 1. Positioned between a pair of shield plates 6 are a pair of-pin engaging members 7 and 8, which are eccentrically pivoted as at 9 between the said plates (5. The engaging members 7 and 8 are of a curved formationv and have their meeting faces provided with longitudinally extending cut away portions or grooves 10, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 4. of the drawings and the said members have their outer edges provided with ,suitable openings adapted for the reception of pin'tles 11 con-\ nee-ted with the extremitiesof a bow spring '12. The plates (3 are 1' rovided with arcuate slots 13, and the sides of the bow spring 12. adjacent its points of connection with the pintles ll are provided with projecting button n'ienibers 14. which extend through suitable openings provided within the' ornamental body or casing t of the device.
Briefly stated the operation *of the device is as foll0ws:-\Vhen the pin I'is inserted through the hat, by one hand of the operator, the second hand of the operator presses upon the buttons 1 4, thus rotating the curved pin retaining members 7 and 8 upon their pivots Sand spreading thesaid members away from each other so as to allow the device to be readily positioned upon the point. of the pin. When thisis done the buttons l l are released allowing the spring to relax and causing the engaging portions of the members 7 and 8' to tightly contact with the pin, thus etl'ectively holding the said pin upon the hat of the wearer eyes, a pintle for these eyes engaging the as well as preventing its projecting point ends of the pin engaging members, and butfrom injuring persons. i ton members for compressing the: spring to Having thus fully described the invenspread the members away from each other. 5 tion, What I claim as new 'is:' In testimony whereof I aflix my signature 15 A pin point protector comprising a casing in presence of two Witnesses. having an open'mouth, a pair of spaced DANIEL FERGUSON. plates Within the casing, a pair of arcuate Witnesses: pin engaging members pivoted to the plates, 0.
