New Safety Pin
(AP Newsfeaturu)
Atlanta An engineering pro
fessor who teaches wrestling on
the side turned inventor and
came up with a really "safe"
safety pin.
It meets approval of babies,
parents, and doctors. When it's
open, it's closed.
With the pin, baby can't get
stuck when getting his diapers
changed. Nor can the mother,
or father, stick their finger.
Should junior swallow the pin,
the doctor can easily retrcive
it.
The inventor is Robert N.
Miller, Ph. D., Assistant Pro
lessor in chemical engineering
at Georgia Institute of Techno
logy. He's coach of Tech's
wrestling team, and coached the
football line several years dur
ing the war. He was a football
player himself in student days
at Ohio State university.
Dr. Miller said he got the idea
from Dr. Murdock Equen of the
Ponce De Leon Infirmary here.
Dr. Miller's first interest was
from the father's viewpoint. He
and his ono-year-old son both
got stuck, frequently when
wrestling with a diaper change.
'Dr. Equen's interest was from
the surgeon's viewpoint. He had
Invented a magnet for removal of
metallic objects from windpipes
and stomachs. Open safety pins
are not always so easy. The
sharp point of the pin will rip
tender insides. With the magnet,
doctors have removed open pins
by pushing them into the stom
ach, turning them around, and
then fishing them up with the
point trailing. Sometimes how
ever open pins can't be removed
easily, and doctors can only
remove them by cutting from the
outside.
Dr. Miller said he became
interested while talking with
Dr, Equen at a Tech football
game about the dangers of
safety pins.
With some advice from his
Wife, Dr. Miller went to work.
He tuned up with a reverse
action safety pin. The sharp
point is on the inside of the
guard when it's open You have
to pry it apart to use it, like a
bobby pin. It fastens just like
an ordinary safety pin, but it
stays locked.
Dr. Miller said it has met every
, test but swallowing. But the pin
is magnetic so it should pass on
that score.
