PAKAGE FOR SNAP FASTENERS. APPLHCATION FILED APR. 17. 1919.

'einer PACKAGE FOR SNAP FASTENERS.
Application led April 17, 1919.
To all whom it may concern.' l
Ylie it known that l, Louis J. STERN, a citizen of the ilnited States, and resident of Boston. in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented an improvement in Packages for Snap Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a package for snap-fasteners and the like and has for its object the provision of a package adapted to hold af relatively small number of fasteners and in which the fasteners may be easily and quickly inserted by unskilled labor, or by machine: which will hold the fasteners exposed to view; which is inexpensive to manufacture from which the fasteners may be extracted one by one and the package closed after the extraction of each fastener; and which has means to indicate the spacing of the fasteners on garments.
I attain this object in a package formed of a strip of tiexible material having its sideportions reiiexed to form a channel adapted to receive and retain a single row of fasteners. The channel is permanently closed at one end and removable closing means integral with the strip comprising the package is adapted normally to close the other end of the channel. rlhe closing means is adapted to be v'flexed from closing position for the extraction of fasteners and then re- Hexed into channel closing position for retention of remaining fasteners.
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a package einbodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the package of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a bottom. view of thepackage of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a section along lines 4-4 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of an end of the package illustrating the permanent closure for that end.
Fig. 6 is a sectional detail of the other end of the package illustrating the removable closure therefore flexed to permit the removal of a fastener.
The snap-fasteners and the like which the package of myV invention is adapted to receive and retain may have the relatively thin body-portion 10. which may be of disc shape, and the relatively thick central or head portion 11.
The package adapted to receive and hold a number of such fasteners, as here shown,
Specification of Letters Patent.
vPatented Judy i i. i922.
Serial No. 290,850.
comprises a strip of flexible material, as sheet brass, steel, etc. having a body-portion 12, and. side-portions. Said side-portions are rcflexed, to provide side-walls 13 and inwardly extended cover-portions 14; whereby channel or groove l5 is formed of said strip to receive and retain fasteners, and said fasteners are adapted to be received therein in a single row, as shown in Fig. l.. The depth of said channel or groove 15, or the height of the side walls 13, is adapted to be somewhat greater than the thickness of the body-portion of the fasteners whereby the fasteners may be placed therein in a partially superposed relation, as shown, and a relatively7 large number of fasteners may be retained in a relatively short package.
One end of thel package is adapted to be permanently closed to prevent escape of fasteners from that end and a suitable permanent closure is formed by attening the side-walls 13 and edge-portions 14 against the body-portion 12 of the strip and thereby closing the channel, as is shown in Fig. 5. Other suitable or desirable end-closingmeans may be employed, however.
The means whereby the other end of the fastener receiving and. retaining channel is closed to retain fasteners therein comprises a lip 20 integrally formed with the body-portion 12. and extended beyond the strip at the end of the channel. The lip is formed with a reduced or weakened portion 20EL at its junction with the body-portion of the strip whereby it may be readily bent or flexed to and from. channel-closing position. Beyond the reduced portion 20:l the lip is formed with a portion 2Ob at substantially right angles to the reduced portion which, in the channel closing position, prevents the removal. of fasteners from the channel. The lip terminates in a terminal portion 20c of suitable shape to be grasped by the fingers to move the lip to and from channel closing position.
In channel closing position. the lip and more especially the portion 20b thereof is disposed as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, to form an abutment by which fasteners are restrained in the channel. For the extraction of a fastener from the package the terminal portion 20C is grasped by the fingers and the lip is bent downward to a position as shown in Fig. 6, the lip bending at the reduced or weakened portion 20a provided for the purpose, in which it is below the bottom of the channel and fasteners may oonsequently be extracted.
The lip is thereafter refiexed to its original position to retain the remaining fasteners in the package.
The fasteners contained in the package above set forth are adapted to be spaced on garments and secured thereto equal distances apart and some form of measure has heretofore been used to determine the equal spacing of fasteners. I provide my package with a plurality of indicia 40 on the back side thereof for this purpose. In the use of this feature of my package, a fastener is withdrawn therefrom, affixed to the garment, the package is applied to the garment and, from the indicia carried thereby, the proper spacing for the next fastener is marked on the Lgarment; this fastener is extracted from the package and 'aliixed to the garment, and so on until the desired number of equally spaced fasteners have been affixed.
By this means the necessity for a separate measure to indicate and determine the spacing of the fasteners contained in the package is obviated. Y
I claim:
l. A package for snap fasteners and the like formed of a strip of flexible material of substantial length and having a bodyportion and side-portions inwardly refleXed to provide a fastener-receiving channel pery manently closed at one end., said body-portion tion extended beyond the channel andV formed with a weakened portion, an abut ment and a handle-portion and adapted t-o be flexed at the weakened portion to move the abutment into anda-Way from channelclosing position. v n In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of tivo subscribing Witnesses.
, LOUIS J. STERN.
