HAT-PIN-POINT PROTECTOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 30, 1911.
Patented Feb. 6, 1912.
Serial No. 646,925.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE F. DILLON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at McKees Rocks, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improve ments in Hat-PimPoint Protectors, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to a hatpin point protector, and the objects of my invention are to provide a device that can be easily and quickly mounted upon thepointed end of a pin to prevent the pointed end of the pin from injuring pedestrians or objects that may contact with the same, and to provide a device that will also serve functionally as a lock for preventing the pin from becoming accidentally displaced from a hat.
I attain the above objects by a device that is made of a single piece of resilient material bent to provide two gripping arms with one of the arms terminating in a triangularshaped head that serves functionally as a guard for the pointed end of the pin.
The device will be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed, and reference will now be had to the drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a side elevation of a pin provided with the device, and Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of a detached device.
As heretofore stated, the device is made of a single piece of resilient material, preferably in the form of a strap that is bent to provide a C-shaped member 1, the ends 2 and 3 of this member are provided with apertures 4 and 5 to receive the pointed end 6 of a hatpin 7. The apertures 4 and 5 are normally out of alinement, whereby it will be necessary to compress or move the ends 2 and 8 toward each other to place the apertures 4i and 5 in vertical alinement to receive the pointed end of the pin 7. With the apertures at and 5 in vertical alinement, the ends 2 and 3 of the member 1 have a binding action against the pointed end of the pin Copies of this patent may be obtained for and it is this binding action that retains the device upon the pin.
The end 3 of the member l is prolonged and bent to provide a triangular-shaped guard 8 that receives the pointed end 6 of the pin. The pointed end 6 of the pin 7 engages the arm 9 of the head 8 and shifts the head 8 suiiiciently to increase the binding action of the ends 2 and 3 of the member 1. With the pointed end 6 of the pin 7 housed within the head 8, said pointed end cannot injure an object with which it may contact.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that the device is extremely simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and easy to apply to the pointed end of the pin for the purposes heretofore stated.
What I claim is A hat pin point protector formed of a single piece of resilient material bent to provide a relatively large C shaped member with the arms thereof provided with apertures for the passage of the pin, the aperture of one arm being normally out of alinement with the aperture of the other arm whereby the walls of said openings will have a binding action upon the pin to retain the protector upon the pin, said protector further including a triangularly shaped member having one of its arms integral with one of the arms of the C shaped member and the other of its arms having a free terminus positioned in proximity to that arm with which the t-riangularly shaped member is integral, that arm of the triangularly shaped member having the free terminus adapted to have its inner face engaged for a portion of its length by the pointed end of the pin to increase the bind ing action.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE F. DILLON.
