PEN AND PENCIL; CLIP App1ication 'fi1ed January 15, 1930. Seria1'No. 420,875."'
Thisinvention' relates to spring clips such as'are used IIL'COIIHBCUOII wlth pensypencils and similar articles, and particularly to the manner of arranging and mounting the clip .11 in connection with its support; and theobject of the invention is to provide a clip of the classspecified, one end of which is provided with downwardly and laterally extending-flanges adapted to be passed througha' relatively large aperture in the support 111.
connection with which the j same is to be tion with respect to the support and retained in such position by a member inserted into the support and engaging-the flanges of the clip to securely clamp jthe same in position; a further "object being toprovidea clip of the tion ivithout any expensive or time taking operations such as pinning,"riveti1 ig, bending or the like and-without the use-of any special tools or implements or" any kind or" class whereby the cost of manufacture of the clip and of the resulting product with'the'clip ati tached thereto may be materially reduced;
and with these and' other objects in view, the inventionconsists in a device of the class and for-the purpose specified whichis simple in construction, efli'cient in use, and which is constructed as hereinafter described and claimed. v 7 The invention is i'ully disclosedjin the following specification, of which-the accompanyingdrawingtorms a pa'rt,'in which the 1 separate partsotmy improvement are designated by suit-able reference char of the v ews, andin'wh chjz f 1 2 F'g; is a sectional sideview of a fountain pen cap showing one of my improved fclips acters in each mounted in connection therewith drawing 5representsa support or capwhich,
iii-carrying my lnvention into efiect, is provided with an elongated aperture 6 extending longitudinally of the'cap' and arranged adjacent the closed end 5athereof; At 7, I have shown one of my improved clips which is formed from a single sheet of metal, one end being fashioned into a ball or knob 8 and the .otherlend terminating in a tongue 9 which is arc-shaped in crosssectional form. Inwardly flange walls 10 which terminate in laterally of the tonguelare downwardly extending 7 extending mounting flanges 11 which are of the form illustrated in Fig eofthe drawing. p'fThe' transverse "dimensio'ns'of the-clip, where the flange walls arelocated, are equal to the transverse dimensions of the aperture 6 so as to fit snugly therein. Inassembling the clip the end thereof is passed through the aperture 6 in the manner indicated in Fig. 3
of the drawing with the flange walls -1Oll arrangedlongitudinally with respect-to the aperture and when fullypositio-ned within the chamberfofthecap, the clip is turned into a position at right angles to that shown in Fig. Bandthen moved upwardly and outwardly to pass the walls 10 and-top of the clip upwardlyithrough the aperture 6 and to bring the flanges" 11 into engagement with the inner wall of the cap 5 and to arrange the tongue 9 forwardly tureafter'which the clip is moved backwardly to arrange the'tongueend 9 upon the outer surface of the cap beyond-the end 6a of the aperture as clearly seen in Fig. 1. This opera tion may be facilitated in placing the retaining-plng 12 inthebore of the cap, which plug serves to 'engniigev the flanges 11am securely, support or retain the attachedend of the clip against movement with respect to thecap 5.
of the end 60 of the aperc .9 This position'ofthefparts is clearly seen n In the construetion shown,the plug 1 2is tubular in form'.*' However, my invention is not necessarilylimited toanyparticular type or form of plug exceptinthenecessity of its engaging the flanges ll to firmlyretain the 'clip'in position. I Q
Between the attached end of the clip and the knob p lf ed to' fQrIii' a spring arm which causes the spring proper to clip as in other devices of this class, it being understood that the distinctive feature of my invention resides in the manner of forming the attached end of the clip and the method of mounting the same in connection with the cap or other support.
In the art to which my invention relates, it has been customary to pin or rivet a clip to a support or to pass two or more lugs or flanges through two ormore apertures formed in the support and then bend,flare,or rivet said lugs to retain the clip in position whereas with my present construction, all of such operations are obviated. words, the attaching end ofthe clip is completely formed and assembled or coupled with its support in themanner disclosed, and when assembled, the clip will produce a neat and finished appearance and will be strong and durable in use.
In this connection, it will also be understood that the end wall of the clip which overlies the wall of the support adjacent the aperture 6 may be given any contour or design, the same being rounded or arc-shaped in the construction shown. It will be apparent that various changes in and modifications of the construction herein shown and described may be made within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of my invention or sacrificing its advantages.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A device of the class described comprising in combination with a tubular support having an elongated aperture therein, a clip, one end of which is provided with downwardly and laterally flared flanges, said end of the clip being coupled with the support by passing the same through said aperture to arrange said flanges in position to engage opposed walls of the aperture and the inner wall of said support, means mounted in said support cooperating with said flanges for retaining said clip against displacement with respect to said support, and a projecting tongue on said end of the clip overlying the support adjacent said aperture.
2. A clip for a tubular support, said support having an elongated aperture in the wall thereof andopening into the bore of said support, one end of the clip having side flanges extending through said aperture and engaging the inner wall of the support at opposite sides of the aperture, a member ined in the bore of the support and cooperatlng with said flanges for retaining the clip a gainst displacement with respect to the support, and a projecting member on said end of the clip overlying the outer wall of the support adjacent the aperture therein;
A clip for attachment to a tubular sup,-
In other port having an elongated aperture arranged in one wall thereof, comprising an elongated body, one end of which is provided with a knob and the other end being fashioned to form a mounting plate, said plate having inwardly of the end thereof, relatively short depending side walls, corresponding in width to the thickness of the wall of said tubular support and terminating in laterally extending flanges, and the free end of said plate extending beyond the flanges to form a tongue,
4:. The combination with a fountain pen cap of an elongated aperture arranged in the side wall of the cap adjacent the closed end thereof, a clip, one end of which is of substantially the same transverse dimensions as the transverse dimensions of said aperture, said clip including laterally extending side flanges adapted to be arranged to engage the inner surface of the bore of said cap, a plug member inserted into said bore inwardly of said flanges and adapted to firmly clamp said flanges between the same and the wall of said cap to retain the clip against displacement with respect to the cap, and said end of the cap including a projecting tongue adapted to overlie the outer wall of the cap at one end of the aperture therein.
5. The combination with a fountain pen cap of an elongated aperture arranged in the side wall of the'cap adjacent the closed end thereof, a clip, one end of which is of substantially the same transverse dimensions as the transverse dimensions of said aperture, said clipincluding laterally extending side flanges adapted to be arranged to engage the inner surface of the bore of said cap, a plug member inserted into said bore inwardly of said flanges and adapted to firmly clamp said flanges between the same and the wall of said cap to retain the clip against displacement withrespect to the cap, said end of the cap including a projecting tongue adapted to overlie the outer wall of the cap at one end of the aperture therein, and the other end of the clip having an enlarged in em ber joined to the first named end ofthe clip by a spring arm.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name this 10th day of January, 1930.
