UNITED STATES TERRICE G. BRADY AND CELIA NELKIN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
FABRIC GRIP.
Application filed September This invention relates to the textile fab- .ric supports in which the ends of one or more thicknesses of cloth folded lengthwise may be securely engaged or disengaged at will, and more particularly to sanitary ser viettcs user as catainenial absorbers.
Such devices in order to fulfill the requirements satisfactorily must exert a powerful grip or clamping effect upon the fabric, be easily applied or removed with facility, and avoid the use of buttons, pins, hooks and the liketypes of common fastenings.
In addition to affording positive security to the article supported the present device has the advantage of tending to spread and fiat-ten the folded fabric, preventing it from swayin relative to the support, whereby it may become loosened accidentally, the spreading effect operating very materially to reduce excessive bullriness, rendering the connection unusually compact.
Other features of the invention are in its light weight, simplicity and inexpensive construction, all of which will appear in the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure, and in which Figure 1 is a general front elevation of an embodiment of the invention showing one of its applications.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged front view of the 'ame as detached.
Fig. 8 is a side view of the same indieating the manner of inserting a fabric be tween and over the loops.
Fig. i is a front elevational View of a support having a modified holding device and engaged with a wider flexible element.
The subject matter ofthe invention is best seen in detail in Figs. 2 and 3 in which two distinct loop elements 10 and 11, respectively front and rear appear, each being composed of a single strand of wire made of non-tarnishable material, or plated for that purpose.
The rear loop 11 consists of a straight cross bar 12 of any suitable length having curved ends blending into parallel side members 13, having in their length outstanding eyes 1 1, formed by single coils, the continuing portions being offset overwardly and bent at right angles towards each other to constitute sections of an, upper bar 15.
The inreaching ends of the sections may 1, 1926. Serial N0. 132,988
be coiled interengagingly as at 16, whereby they are rigidly united, or the ends may merely abut as indicated in Fig. 1, or again, they may be connected by twisting. as at 17 in Fi l: the ends of the twisted strands reaching thereabove to form a looped eye 18 to engage over a fixed support 19, as a nail or pin.
The front loop 10 is composed of a pair of substantially closed hooks 20, freely enin the eyes 14, which are so disposei'l as to prevent the books from turning outward more than ninety degrees therein, these books being formed on the ends of side members 21 extending normally in overlying relation to the lower portions of the rear loop members 13. i
The lower portions of the side members 21 are bent slightly outward to merge into corner bows 22. the inner elements of which reach past the bar 12, to at least a distance equal to the diameter'of the wire, and then extended in alinement towards each other to constitute a bar 23.
The inner ends of the bar sections 23 are integrally connected by a downwardly extending lobe 28, reaching considerably below bar 12, as best seen in Fig. 2, these bows and lobe constituting outstanding undulations which positively prevent the front loop from being drawn through the rear loop, irrespec tive of looseness, wear or resilience of the parts. v f
In Fig. 1 is shown a waist band 25 having elastic insert 26 at the sides and provided with any preferred type of fastening means, not shown; at the front and rear are pend ant elastic tapes 27, either doubled or hemmed at their lower edges, toreceive the loop bars 15 and securely support the same.
A serviette 28, after having been properly folded, has its ends passed. over both loops 10 and 11, turned to engage around the front loop 10, as at 29, and then have its extreme end 30, tucked in between the bar 12 and the overlying portion of the serviette, as best seen in Fig. 3.
Due to the excessive lengths of the lobe 24:, the material of the serviette is not only centered but caused to spread edgewise when adjusting the fabric andupon drawing the material rearwardly, the front loop is caused to forcibly clamp the same tightly againstthe rear loop and thereafter, due to the unirtlltttlOl'is, securely in As thereiare noasharp eorners'or edges Ion the device whatever, the material cannot be out Or injured, and it will be seen that when it is desired to release the same, the
covered lobe24 aots conveniently as acatch for withdrawing the-front loop by swinging it outwardly and thus liberate the fabrlc.
