GEORGES CHARLES AUGUSTE GIROUX, 0F MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA;
PICTURE HOOK.
Application filed May 25, 192-1. Serial No. 472,328;
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEoRons CHARLES AUGUsTE GIROUX, a British subject, residing at #321 Demontigny Street East, in thecity of Montreal, in the Province of Quebec, in the Dominion of Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Picture Hooks; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same. 7
The present invention relates to improvements in picture hooks, and its main object is to provide a device of this character in which the cord will be held firmly in place, thus preventing the picture from displacing itself dueto vibrations or shocks.
The invention will be readily understood with the aid of the following description and accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a hook according to the invention.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of a hook according to a modified form of the invention.
Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
Referring to the drawings, 1 is a hook of the usual type used to hang pictures. This hook usually comprises a lower curved portion 2 in which the picture cord 3 is supported and an oppositely curved portion 4; which is secured to the wall moulding,'thc' two curved portions 2 and l being connected by an approximately vertical portion, as shown. In the curved portion 2 is rigidly secured at its front end a spring member or tongue 5, said spring projectingrea-rwardly' along the curved portion 2 and being preferably curved in conformity with the portion 2 so that it tends to normally lie immediately against'the same, and having its free rear end 6 terminating adjacent the lower end of the vertical connecting portion and bent outwardly away from that portion.
In Figure 1. of the drawings, the fiat spring 5 is outwardly curved and bent to form a shoulder 7.
The picture cord 3, in the form illustrated in Figure 1, is first placed on said shoulder 7 ,after which the picture is adjusted so as to be in perfect plane, and when this is done, by pulling the picture downwardly, the cord 3 will be made to enter between the curved portion 2 and the fiat spring 5. The pressure of the spring on the cord 3 will maintain same rigidly in place.
In Figure 2 of the drawings, the modification consists in eliminating the shoulder 7 of the-spring 5. l In this form of hook the cord 3 is im- Specification of Letters Patent. Patented LL91, 14:, 1922, g j
mediately engaged between the spring 5 and the hook portion 2. The outwardly curved portion 6 of the spring 5 facilitates the, insertion of the cord 3.
What I claim as my invention is: j A picture hook, comprising an upper supporting hook curved to engage over a wall molding; a lower cord-supporting portion curved in the opposite direction from the hook; a vertical portion connecting said hook and said cord-supporting portion; and a sprlng memberconnected to the cord-supporting portion and extending rearwardly v Witnesses.
