SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 736,53 1, dated August 18, 1903.
Application filed July 31, 1902. Serial No. 117,876. (No model.)
To all whom it ntrty concern: 7
Be it known that I, FREDERICK WARREN MATSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mineralpoint, in the county of Iowa and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to that class of holders arranged to be placed in pockets of garments to prevent pencils, spectacles, and other articles also placed in such pockets falling therefrom.
The object of the invention is to provide a durable and easilv-constructed device that can be readily attached to and detached from a pocket and is securely held in place thereon, said device constituting means for distending the pocket and a clamp acting against the flap of the pocket to close the same. The combination thus effected therefore affords means for very securely fastening the articles in the pocket to which the holder is applied.
Several embodiments are illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described in the following specification.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of aportion ofa garment having apocket, showing the improved holder applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional View through the same. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the holder when detached. Fig. 4: is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 5 is an end elevation thereof. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a slightly-modified form of construction. Fig. 7 is an end elevation of the same. Fig. 8 is a view in elevation of still another form. Fig. 9 is an end elevation of the form shown in Fig. 8. Fig. 10 is a side elevation of an embodiment of the invention designed to be placed within a pocket and completely concealed. Fig. 11 is a vertical sectional view through a pocket with the said form in place. Fig. 12 is a top plan view of this latter form.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
In all the forms shown a frame is employed which is arranged to be sprung within a pocket and fit snugly about the side and lower edges thereof, so as to spread or distend the same.
This frame is preferably in the form of a bowed loop comprising spaced side arms 10, connected at theirlower ends by the bowed portion 11. The upper ends of the arms are arranged to project slightly above the edge of the pocket, as shown in Fig. 1, and these ends have depending fingers 12, that engage over the outer face of said pocket, forming clamps or jaws, as will be readily understood. 6o Arms 13 are secured at their outer ends to the lower ends of the fingers 12, said arms extending inwardly within the frame and toward each other, the inner ends of said arms being entirely free. These arms, in will be noted, are not arranged in the same or parallel planes with the loop or frame,'but are disposed in planes that intersect the plane of the frame, and thus when said frame is placed within the pocket, with the arms upon the exterior thereof, said arms will press inwardly at two points and close the pocket. Preferably the upper ends of the side arms 10 are bent outwardly, as shown in the end views, so that the mouth of the pocket is open slightly to permit a pencil being readily placed therein. WVhen the holder is in place, the cloth forming the outer wall of the pocketis pinched between the side arms 11 and the portions of the inwardly-extending arms which cross the same, and thus said holder is fastened against accidental displacement.
The holder may be constructed in various forms. In the first five figures the device is shown formed of a single wire, the inwardlyextending arms 13 being doubled and having said doubled portions 13 spaced apart, as shown, so that a wider bearing-surface is provided. In Figs. 6 and 7 the holder is also constructed of wire; but in this instance the terminals of said wire are located at the inner ends of the arms 13, being preferably coiled or looped, as shown at 13 In Fig. 8 another modification is illustrated. In this instance the frame is constructed of wire and the terminals are bent inwardly, as shown at 13. To these terminals are fastened plates 13, which also form broad bearing-surfaces.
The construction illustrated in Figs. 10, 11, and 12 is designed for fastening entirely within a pocket, so that it will be concealed, the inwardly-extendin g arms 13 being housed within apocket-fiap. In this embodiment, therefore, the depending fingers 12 are arranged in the same vertical plane as the upper ends of the loop; but the inwardly-extending fingers 13 are disposed at intersecting planes, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 12, so that the inward pressure of said fingers is still maintained. It will be apparent that all these embodiments of the invention can 'be constructed at extremely small cost, that they may be readily applied to a pocket, and will occupy very little space therein. The bowed loop by pressing against the ends of the pocket not only distends or spreads said pocket and holds it closed but also serves to retain the holder in place, while the clamping-jaws operate against the outside flap of the pocket at two or more points. The said embodiments will not interfere with the insertion and removal of pencils and similar articles from the pocket, but they will firmly clamp said articles so that there will be small chance of theirfalling out or becoming accidentally displaced. At the same time the holders themselves are securely held in place by their peculiar en gagement with the walls of the pockets, as already described.
From the foregoing it is thought that the construction, operation, and many advantages of the herein-described invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without further description, and it will be understood that various changes in the size, shape, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit-or sacrificing any of the ad vantages of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a holder of the class described, the combination with a frame arranged to be placed within a pocket, of an inwardly-extending substantially horizontal holding-arm connected at its outer end to the frame and having its inner end free, said arm being arranged to press against the exterior wall of the pocket and force the same against the inner wall thereof.
2. A holder of the class described, comprising a frame arranged to be placed Within a pocket and made up of spaced side arms connected at their lower ends, and substantially horizontal, inwardly-extending arms connected at their outer ends to the upper ends of the side arms, the inner ends of said arms being free and arranged to press against the exterior wall of the pocket and force the same against the inner wall.
3. In a holder of the class described, the combination with a loop arranged to be placed within a pocket, of an inwardly-extending arm connected at its outer end to one terminal of the loop, said arm being arranged to engage the outer wall of the pocket and being disposed in a vertical plane that is different from the vertical plane in which the loop is located,whereby it will press said outer wall against the inner one.
l. In a holder of the class described, the combination with a loop arranged to be placed within a pocket, of an inwardly-extending arm connected at its outer end to one terminal of the loop and being arranged to engage the outer wall of the pocket, said arm being disposed in a vertical plane that intersects the vertical plane in which the loop is located, whereby it will press the outer wall inwardly.
5. In a holder of the class described, the combination with a bowed loop arranged to be placed within a pocket, of depending fingers located at the terminals of the loop and arranged to engage over the edge of the.
pocket, and separate inwardly extending arms connected at their outer ends to the depending fingers, said fingers being arranged to press against the outer wall to force the same inwardly.
6. In a. holder of the class described, the
combination with a bowed loop arranged to be placed within a pocket, of depending fingers located at the terminals of theloop and separate inwardly-extending arms connected at their outer ends to the depending fingers, said arms comprising wires that are doubled upon themselves, the doubled portions being spaced apart. 7. In a holder of the class described, a loop arranged to be placed within a pocket and having the upper end portions bent outwardly to hold the mouth of the pocket in open position, and inwardly-bent arms carried by the terminals and arranged to engage the outer wall of the pocket to normally press it inwardly.
8. In a holder of the class described, a loop arranged to be placed within a pocket and having the upper end portions bent outwardly to hold the mouth of the pocket in open position, depending fingers secured to the upper terminals of the loop and arranged substantially parallel to the outwardly-bent portions thereof, and inwardly-bent arms carried by the finger and arranged to engage the outer wall of the pocket to normally press it inwardly.
9. In a device of the class described, the combination with the open bowed frame to be placed within the pocket and operate against the ends thereof to distend the same, of independent clamps carried by the frame and operating against the flap at a plurality of places of the pocket to close it.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
FREDERICK WARREN MATSON.
