Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IIENEY HIsE, or OTTAWA, ILLINOIS.
SNAP-HOOK.
Specification forming part of Leiters Patent N0. 45,714, dated Janualy 3, 1865.
To all whom it may c mcera Be it known that I, H. HIsE, of Ottawa, in the county ot' La Salle and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Snap- Hook 5 and I do hereby declare that the followin gis al1 ull, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable any person skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of my invention; Fig. 2, an edge view of the same; Fig. 3, a longitudinal central section of the same, as indicated by the line .r x, Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several gures.
This invention relates to a new and improved hook of that class which are provided with a snap and spring to close the hook and prevent it from becoming casuallyY detached from the article with which it is engaged,and at the same time admit ot' the article being readily engaged with or Atitted into the hook and disengaged from it when required.
The object of the invention is to obtain a snaphook for harnesses and other purposes, which will not be attected by moisture, so as to rust or injure the spring, and one which will not admit of dust and dirt collecting in the socket which contains the spring, so as to prevent the free movement of the snap-co1 tingeneies which occur with the ordinary snap* hooks in use.
A represents the hook, which may be constructed or cast in the usual form, and with two side projections or ears, c af, which project from the inner surface ofthe shank b, and between which the snap B is secured by a pin or pivot, o, the latter passing through the inner end of the snap, the latter being quite short and rounded at its inner end where the pin or pivot c passes through, as shown clearly in Fig. 3.
j C is a spring constructed of a at strip of metal-steel would probably be the preferable material.
This spring is attached by a By this arrangement of the short snapxand spring the ollowingimportant. results are obtained: First, moisture cannot be retained between the projections or ears a a, as the inner end of the snap does not close either end of said space; and, second, in the event of dust or dirt collecting between the spring' C and the shank b, it may be readily picked out, and therefore prevented from interfering with the free action of the sprine.
The ordinary snaphooks have the inner end of the snap extending some distance within a socket, and the spring, which bears against an eccentric on the snap, is inserted in the front part of the socket, so as to form a complete box to retain both moisture and dust, thereby causing the spring to soon become injured by rust, and its free action impaired by the dust accumulated therein. These contingencies are fully obviated by my invention.
I do not claim,broadly, or irrespective of the construction herein shown and described, a snap and spring; but,
Having th us described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
As a new article of manufacture, the snaphook constructed and operating in the particular manner herein specified.
HENRY IHSE.
