ABSTRACT:
The holder is designed for use with earlobe piercing instruments such as that disclosed in co-pending application Ser. No. 759,384. The holder consists of a pair of jaws connected by a flexible bight. Each jaw has a recess at its free end to receive a portion of an ear piercing instrument. In use, an instrument is inserted between the jaws of the holder. The holder and instrument are aligned with an earlobe between the pin and locknut carried by the instrument. As the jaws of the holder are squeezed together, the piercing pin and a receiving locknut are moved toward one another. Further pressure on the legs of the holder releases the piercing pin, suddenly projecting it through the earlobe into engagement with the locknut. As pressure is relaxed, the resilience of the holder's bight moves the jaws apart, leaving the pin and nut secured to the ear and the ear piercing instrument free of the holder for separation from the pin and locknut.
