Patented June 3, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GEORGE n.. JENTzEN, E JEnsE'crrY. NEW JERSEY cLoTHEsPTN Application filed August 16, 1927.v Serial N'o. 213,288.
at that part. v
A further objectof the invention is to provide a wooden clothes pin so formed as to prevent splitting under ordinary usage.
With the .above and such other objects in view as may hereinafter more fully appear,
I have invented the clothes pin illustrated in f the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure l is a plan view of a clothes pin made accordingto my invention;
Figure 2 is a section on line 2-'2 of Figure l;
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 1 showing a modification;
Figure 4 is a similar view of another modification;
Fig. 5 is a planv View of another modification of the invention; Fig. 6 is a plan view of another modification of the invention;
Fig. 7 Ais a plan View of another modification of the invention; 4
Fig. 8 is a plan view of a still further modiication of the invention; and
Fig. 9 is a side elevational'view partly in section taken through the longitudinal axis of Fig. 8.
Like reference characters indicate like parts throughout the following specification and in the several views in the drawings, in which 1 indicates a clothes pin' the body Qof which is relatii'ely thick with flattened Sides 3 and 4 throughout a portion of the length, said body havingthe usual bifurcated port-ion 5 the split 6 of `which is tapering and terminates in a bore 7 having the double function of forming a linereceiving enlargement and a split preventing terminal so formed that strain of spreading the legs 8 V-terminal whiclrhas a tendency to splitting and 9 is distributed over a considerably enlarged area. Spaced' at suitable intervals" vapart from the first bore 7 are cut outs 10 and 11 graduating in size from the said bore 7 the latter cut outs being intended to receive if the line and goods hung thereon, the purpose of the graduated enlargement also being to recelvelines of various diameters as well as goodsrof different thicknesses. The side walls arey reduced in' thickness at the points 3 and 4 C0 I where there is the least strain, whereby additiolal resilience is provided for said legs 8 an 9.
The cut outs 14 of Fig..3 are triangular;
' the cut outs 13 of Fig. 4 are modified Oblong; f5
and the eut outs 16 ofFig. 5. are square. Other shapes of -recesses may be made if desired. The principal purpose of the invention is to rovide a more eilicient clothes-` pin which will not slip-from the lineeither with or without goods being held thereby, l
either through gradual slipping or whipping of the goods by Wind.
The modification shown in Fig. 5 includes essentially square cut outs 16 having a grcat- 75 er Width than height; the modification shown in Fig. 6 'shows the cut outs 15 similarly square, or rectangular, but having a height greater than their wyidth in Fig. 7 v the cut outs 12 are essentiallycircular 'in outline except-8U for the top cut out which is amodified circle as shown; the modification illustrated in Figs. 8 and 9 shows diagonally positioned cut outs 17, having an essentially round or circular'cross-section. This construction has C5 an effective holding efliciency by virtue of the slanted grooves being jammed into the material held.
Having now described my invention, that which I claim as new, and desireto protect by SC Letters Patent, is: l
A clothes pin having a body, a split therein, and a series of inclined grooves formed in each of the legs resulting from said split, each of the grooves being of a y'size to receive 95 a clothes line and adapted to give said split greater holding power to any object placed over the clothes line in the split.
In testimony whereof I aix mv signature.
