GEORGE GASCHKE, F NEWARK, NEW JE RSEY, .FlSSIGNOR TO AInIERICAN PLATINUM WORKS, OF KEV/13K, NEW ll. CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
SAFETY PIN, BBJOOCH, AND CLASP.
Application filed Jure 1 To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, Gnouon Gasormn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, county of Essex, and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Iniprovements in Safety Pins, Brooches, and
Clasps, of which the following is a specification.
The principal object of the present invention is to produce safety pins in which the tongue members may be securely locked when in an engaged position or released at will, by readily operated means.
Another purpose is to provide a pin 01" neat appearance, durable in nature and produced at a moderate cost.
Aturther aim is in the provision of a pin which may be so constructed as to present an ornamental appearance as that of a brooch or the like, without conflicting with its utility.
These several objects are attained by the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and shown in the annexed drawing, constituting an essential part of this disclosure, and in which Figure 1 is a side elevational view showing an embodiment of the preferred form of pin in a closed or engaged position.
Figure 2 is an end View of the same.
Figure 3 is another like view but showing the pin in an open or released position.
Figure 4. is tragmental side view of a pin showing a slight modification in the catch construction.
Figure 5 is a transverse sectional View taken on line 55 of Fig. 4:.
Figure 6 is a perspective view of a blank pin partially formed.
Figure 7 is a side View of a pin made from a blank similar to that shown in Fig. 6.
Figure 8 is an end View thereof.
Figure 9 is a side view showing another modification in construction.
Figure 10 is a sectional view of the same taken on line 10-10 of Fig. 9.
In the drawing, Figs. 1, 2 and 3 show a pin made from a common round resilient wire, having a sharp pointed end 15 on its straight tongue 16, thesame having a coil 17 at its opposite end, said coil connecting with the bar element 18.
This bar 18 is turned angularly upward, as at 19, continued to form a loop 20, ex-
Serial No. 565,159v
tended outward and downturned to present a bight 21, thence into an arm 22 spaced parallel to the element 19, and having a terminal eye 23 tightly closed upon the bar 18.
The pointed end15 oi the pin is con tained in the bight 21 when the tongue is in an engaged position, readily entering the space between the overhanging or outstanding loop and the parallel elements back of it.
In order to hold the tongue positively from becoming disengaged a keeper is used, the same consisting of a narrow strip of thin resilient material coiled or rolled to present a band 24: encircling that part of the bar 18 between the elements 19 and 22, thence continued to form an angle element 25 the upper member 26 which is suited to engage the lowermost surface of the loop 20 under spring compression, the seat member 26 passing through the space between the arm members and being continued into an outstanding curve 2. ending in a lip 28 adapted to overlie the point of the pin.
Due to the contact of the seat element 26 and loop 20, this keeper, when in engagement. prevents thetongue from ..eing released, as upon pressing it towards the bar it will make contact with the seat and cannot be moved out of the space 21, until the keeper is turned rearwardly on the bar,
which is easily accomplished by engaging the lip 28 by a persons finger and pressing it rearwardly.
In the modification shown in Figs. 4 and 5 the tongue 30 has a point 31 and may be connected to the bar 32 by a coil or plain band as preferred.
The end of the bar is provided with a pair of integral. spaced arms 33 and 34:, extended towards the point of the tongue, bent forward and downward forming collectively a bight or space 35 and joined by a bar 36.
The keeper is made from material similar to that described, and has a closed loop or eye 37 encircling that part of the pin bar 32 between the arms.
One end of the keeper is formed into an outreaching angle 38, turned sharply to form a seat 39, adapted to engage the bar 36, the other part 40 of the keeper extending at substantially a right angle to the seat 39 and then being curved outwardly to constitute a loop 41, which, when in an engaged position, approximately fills the space between the arms 33 and 34 at the top, its extil it is released b nressin the kee er rearwardly.
'Another modification, shown inlligs. 6, i and 8 discloses a pin or breech of ornamental nature entailing the same general characteristics but of slightly d'ili'erent construction. 7
in this type the pin tongue 415 is provided With a pointed end 46 and connected by a semi-circular bend t? with the pin bar t8, the latter being relatively thicker and considerably wider than the tongue to provide a surface capable 01" being embossed, engraved or otherwise superficially ornaniented.
The outer end of the bar is oifuroated to produce two pron s of uneoual length. re-
"3 1 rd i spectively l9 and 50 the toiiner, shorter prong being bent closely re-eitrant and the other prong 50 sent to form the side and bar elenients of a loop 51 in the bight 52 of which the end 01 the pin tongue is received in the manner previously described. the extremity of the prong bein soldered firmly to the inner side of the pin liar 48.
The keeper is in all respects like that first described, consisting of an eye engaging the shorterprong 4:9 to turn freely on it and is provided with spring seat to engage the loop 51,' the keeper terminating in a slightly extending lip A further variation in construction is disclosed in 9 and 10, in which the pin tongue 60 is of circular cross section terininating in a point 61 at one end and joined by a curve 62 to the pin bar 63, here indicated as of rectangular cross section.
'Said bar 63 is stamped from sheet metal to produce an integral angular element M expanded at its outer end 65 and containing a relatively narrow slot 66 enlarged inthe expanded portion 65, which is turned over upon the narrower element a space 67 for the reception of the tongue point intervening.
vvhieh the point is etlieiently protected and The keeper int-his type may be blanked I lessees 1. i oniprising a bar, a spring: lPlfGWlili, a ll shaped loop integral at the end of bar extending towards the pointof said tongue said loop 'ent to produce -a lateral. hook adapte the tongue, a plate keeper hinged 1r between the side elements tongue said extenie keeper in engaged position, and projection on said keeper by which it may he disengaged.
2. A; pin or brooch @0111, rising a relative y bar ada t d to he ornled an attenuated spring tongue 101- o e end tliereoih a catch for the tongue a the other end of said har said catch being composed of a pair of inenihers axed to the bar; joined at their extremities and hent in the manner of a hoole a keeper pivoted to swing hetween the side member of said catch, a resilient nt carried by said keeper suited toengage the connection between the sa d side lTilQllllJGl'S said resilient element closing. the passage to the looped portion of? said catch, a loop termed with said keeper to pass over the entered tongue, and means on said loop whereby tlie'lreeper may be disengaged.
3. [i pin comprising a her having ent tongue and a U shaped loop disposed in a plane parallel to said bar. said loop lining turned re-entrantly at the side of the outer end or" said bar to receive the tongue, said elements being integrally formed and a plate keeper hinged to the bar portion of the pin between the side elements of said loop, said keeper having a curved portion adapted to resiliently engage said tongue and an angular element by which may be released therefrom.
This specification signed and witnessed this sixteenth day of ltilay, 1922.
