Application for reissue fled November 9, 1929. Serial No. 406,128.
tached to a flexible support;
Fig. 4 is an elevation view of the socket before it is secured to its support and with the ca removed; and
i 5 is a side elevation of the back plate.
Re erring to the drawin there is shown a separable fastener whic is particularly useful as a curtain fastener or as a glove fastener, although it may be used for many other purposes where a snap fastener is required.
The stud illustrated is of the well known hollow pressed type, having a head 1, a neck 2 and a base portion 3. The base portion is crimped over the head 4 of an attaching screw 5, which is secured to a rigid support 6, such as the body of an automobile, as shown in The socket is secured to the curtain 7 and includes a stud-en aging part having a base portion 8 and a tu ular portion pressed from the center of the base portion and slit throughout its entire length and partly into the base portion 8 to provide a plurality of resilient fingers 9. These fingers are provided at their free ends with reversely ent neck-engaging portions 10' preferably bent inwardly to engage the neck of the stud. The resilient fingers are substantially parallel with the axis of the stud and are free to expand to a limited extent, as more fully hereinafter described. The base portion 8 of the stud-en aging part also presents at its outer perip cry a prong-receiving portion, which'comprises an anvil portion 11 and a clench portion 12, to which is secured a cap member 13 (Fig. 2) for concealing the underlying portions of the socket This cap may or may not be used, but it Is preferred to use it so as'to provide a neat and finished appearance to the socket when viewed from the outer face of the curtain 7.
While the socket may be secured to the curtam 7 in any suitable manner, it is preferred to secure it thereto so that the base portion 8, of the stud-engaging part, will overlie a portion of the outer face of the curtain 7.
The resilient fingers 9 pass through an aperture 14 in the curtain 7 and extend slightly beyond the inner face of the curtain 7. A back plate 15 is applied'to the inner face of the curtain and is secured to the studengaging part by a plurality of attaching prongs 16. These prongs project from the,
periphery of the back plate (Fig. 5) and extend through the curtain 7 where they are bent outwardly and downwardly by the anvil portion 11 against the clench portion 12, thus securin all the parts of the socket to the curtain. be back plate also presents an aperture 17 through which the resilient fingers 9 protrude, and which is large enough in diameter to permit the resilient fingers to expand during engagement and disengagement with the stud. The wall, surrounding the aperture, back supports the resilient fingers and prevents too great expansion thereof, when strain is exerted thereon. Thus the resilient fingers are back supported by the back plate 15 so that the fastener cannot be separated by resolution of forces due to lateral strain exerted upon the curtain 7.
into base portion 8 (Fig. 4) sufficient distance to permit the fingers to bend upon straight lines, passing through the flat base portion 8. between the slots 18, during contraction and expansion thereof. By extending the slots to the base 8, the fingers 9 may bend more easily with less possibility of their becoming set because they do not bend upon the curved portion as would be the case if the slots terminated at or before reaching the base portion. Thus there is provided a socket which is strong and durable and which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
While there is shown and described a preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be understood that ch-an es involving omission, substitution, alteration and reversal of parts, and even changes in the mode of operation, may be made without departing from the scope of the invention, which is best defined in the appended claims.
