UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EMILY A. COMPTON, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, ADMINISTRATRIX OF EDMUND COMPTON, DECEASED.
HOLDER FOR CLEANING-CLOTHS AND THE LIKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 18, 1908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that EDMUND COMPTON, deceased, at the time of his demise a citizen of the United States, residing at Washington, District of Columbia, did invent certain new and useful Improvements in Holders for Cleaning-Cloths and the Like, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to holders for cleaning cloths and the like such as are used for cleaning or polishing lamp chimneys, windows, etc.
The object of the invention is to produce an exceedingly simple device, which may be constructed from a single piece of wire, and of such formation that it will afford means for securely grasping a cleaning-or polishing cloth as aforesaid.
To this end the invention consists of the elements, combinations, and arrangements of parts, all as will be hereinafter fully described, and succinctly defined in the annexed claims,
Referring to the accompanying drawings which are to be taken as a part of this specification, and in which is illustrated a merely preferred form of embodiment: Figure 1 is a perspective view showin the device as in use in connection with a c eaner for a lamp chimney; Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the device in its unlocked position; Fig. 3 is an elevation of the subject matter of Fig. 2 taken at right angles to said figure; Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 but showing the device in its locked position, in which it is adapted to hold the cleaning cloth.
Referring to the numerals on the drawings, 1 indicates in a general way the holder, which consists of a single length of resilient wire, bent as indicated at 2 with a wide curve for the sake of additional resiliency, to form two legs 3 and 4. The end of the leg 3 is provided .with a hook 5, and the end of the leg 4 is bent to form a loop 6, the loop extending preferably in the plane of the two legs, an the hook being in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the legs.
It is intended that a cleaning cloth 7 shall be held between the loop 6 andthe hook 5,
the hook being projected into and held within said loop when the device is locked as hereinafter described.
One of the legs, as for instance the leg 3, is provided with a locking lug 8, which is best formed by making a slight bend in the wire on the side opposite the hook 5 and consequently at right angles to the plane of the legs, instead of being merely at right angles to said plane, the lug might form an obtuse angle therewith, bending away from the leg 4.
In operation, the cleaning cloth 7 is placed over the loop 6, the hook 5 being raised to permit such placement, and thereupon the leg 4 is manually sprung over the locking bend or lug 8 where it will be held by the resiliency of the device as a whole. Such manipulation brings the parts to the position shown in Figs. 1 and 4, the hook being projected into the loop, and holding the ploth 7 therein and between the ends of the egs.
What is claimed is 1. A device of the character described, comprising an integral length of resilient wire bent upon itself to form two legs normally tending to separate, one of said legs being provided intermediate its ends with-a locking projection extending substantially at right angles to the plane of the two legs, substantially as set forth.
2. A device of the character described,
comprising an integral length of resilient wire bent upon itself to form two legs normally tending to separate, one of said legs being provided intermediate its ends with an integral locking projection extending substantially at right angles to the plane of the two legs, substantially as set forth. 3. A device of the character described, comprising an integral length of resilient wire bent upon itself to form two legs normally tending to separate, one of said legs being provided intermediate its ends with a looking projection extending substantially at right angles to the plane of the two legs, the free end of one leg having a hook and the free end of the other leg being bent to form a loop for the reception of said hook, substantially as set forth.
4. A device of the character described,
comprising an integral length of resilient Wire In testimony whereof I afliX my signature 1'0 bent upon itself to form tWo legs normally in presence of two Witnesses.
tending to separate, the end of one of said legs being provided with a hook extending at EMILY COMPTON right angles to the plane of the legs, and the Administratrix ofthe estate of Edmund 00mpend of the other leg having a loop in the ton, deceased. plane of the legs, and a locking lug on one l/Vitnesses: leg extending at right angles to the plane of A. E. L. LEoKrE,
the legs, substantially as set forth. RALPH B. FLEHARTY.
