CLASP.
Application filed July 31,
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that LFRED M. Swan'rz, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clasps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to garment clasps particularly adapted for use with lingerie and hair.
The primary purposes of the present invention are to prevent both lateral and longitudinal movement of the clasp rela tively to the material embraced thereby; to prevent lateral movement of the movable jaw member relatively to the stationary jaw to strengthen the hinge connection of the parts; and to attain these results in a simple and inexpensive structure.
My invention consists in the means for effecting the above enumerated purposes.
In the accompanying drawings which form a part of this invention Figure 1 is a side elevation of my novel clasp,
Fig. 2, a similar elevation of the base,
Figs. 3 and 4, plans of the same before and after bending the retaining members respectively,
Fig. 5, a bottom plan view of the tongue,:. and
Fig. 6, plan view of theclasp. I
Similar reference numerals indicate similar parts throughout the views. 7
My, clasp as at present embodied comprises a lower arm or base 9 of thin sheet metal having its outer end bent to form a loop 10, and its innerend longitudinally split at two points forming three fingers. The outer fingers 12 are upwardly and outwardly curved, while the central finger 13 has its extremity formed intoa circular loop or sleeve 1st adapted to embrace a pivot Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 19, 1921.
1920. Serial No. 400,427.
As shown in Fig. 3 the blank from which the arm 9 is bent has intially integral with each side, intermediate its length a laterally projecting extension 21 provided upon its outermost end with a plurality, in the present instance three, arcuate projections These extensions are ultimately bent upwardly as shown in Fig. 2, and form clamping members. The central projection 23- is preferably but not essentially higher than the projections at each side thereof. It will be observed that the members 21 extend laterally of the arm 9 the distance of the thickness of the material from which they are formed so that the upturned ears thereon have their inner surfaces flush with the arm.
This lateral location of the projections is important, as otherwise the material of the arm 9 would be either bent or mutilated, thereby weakening and defacing the latter.
In a clasp, a jaw, a pivot member supported on one end of the jaw, a second jaw, sleeves on the second jaw embracing the pivot, and curved fingers on the first jaw engaging said sleeves the outer ones of which are upwardly and-outwardly curved and the central one of which has its extremity formed into a loop and embracing the pivot member.
In testimony whereof I have ttlllXGd my signature.
FRED M. SWVARTZ.
