Description
I UNITED STATES ATENT OFFICE.
ALBERT L. PITNEY, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
. ROPE OR LINE CLASP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 295,802, dated March 25, 1884.
Application filcd December 31, 1883. No model.)
Too/ll whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT L. PITNEY, of Washington, District of Columbia, have invented a certain Improvement in Rope or Line Clasps, ofwhich the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which like letters refer to like parts in the device.
Figure 1 is a view partly in section of my improved clasp with the rope in position as in actual use. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the clasp, showing all of the interior parts. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the segmental brake, and Fig. 4 is a side view of the same, showing the pins on each side of the brake.
My present invention has for its object to provide a simple and reliable device for fastening ropes or cords, and to obviate the necessary delay in tying and .untying the same and the labor incident thereto.
My invention consists in a case, a clamp, and means for guiding the cord, and other particulars hereinafter described, to wit:
B represents a metallic case, formed with flanges b on each side, converging to a nar row throat at a and a, through which the cord passes.
G is a segmental cam-lever, pivoted toone side of the case B by the-pin 0, being provided with plain or serrated face, and with projec: tions or studs d on each slde, which protrude through the slots 6 in the case B and cover A, for the purpose of releasing the cam-lever from the cord. In some instances I use the segmentalcanrlever G in duplicate, having upon the outer. sides thereof the projections or studs d. H
A is the cover or plate, whichis fastened to the case B by "the rivets f and f. The upper one of the said rivets, f, being out of the center line, serves as a guide in passing the cord through the case, when the two parts A and B are joined together, also to hold the spring 8. The lower pin, f, also passes through the case and serves as astop for the cam-lever C. When the said lever is in position, as shown by the dotted lines, against the stop-pinf, the contour of the face of the cam-lever G being the same as that of the flangeof the case, the space being greater than the thickness of the cord used, the said cord can be easily inserted.
In introducing the cord through the case, the cam-lever is placed in position shown by dotted lines. The cord is then passed through the throat a, and in passing down strikes the pin f, which is at one side of the center line of the case, and acts as a guide in directing the cord between the face of the lever and the side of the case, thence passing down and out at throat a.
By constructing the case with the narrow throats in line with each other, and passing the cord through the said case out of this diupper end, thereby permanently binding the i cord until released by the lever through means of the stud or pin (1. Ihave also shown attached to the pin f a spring, 8, which passes around and acts upon the lower side of the lever O, to keep the said leverin contact with the cord. This spring may be dispensed with, as is evident from the description of the operation above described. At the lower end of the case is a perforation, mintended for the purpose of attaching a tag or a tag-holder.
Having described my invention, whatl claim is, to wit:
1. In a cord-fastener in which the cord passes out of a direct line through the case, the combination of a case provided with a narrow throat at each end, and slots on each side, with a cam lever 0r levers pivoted at one side of the center of the case, and provided with a stud or studs for releasing the same, substantially as set forth.
. 2. In a cord-fastener, the combination of a case provided with a narrow throat at each end and a pivoted earn lever on." levers, with a pin located eccentric to the longitudinal center of the case, to form a guide for the cord, and also to assist in binding the two parts of the case, substantially as set forth.
3. In a cord-fastener, the combination of a case provided with a pivoted cam lever or levers with a stop pin and a guide-pin that act as a stop to the cam lever or levers and as a guide to the cord, and also to assist in binding the two parts of the case, substantially as set forth.
ALBERT L PITNEY.
