ADDISON C. `RAND, 0F WESTFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 101,915, dated April 12,v 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN WHIPS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the seme.
To all whonM-t may concer-ni:
' Be it known -that I, ADDISON. C. RAND, of Westfield, in the county of Hampden and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in the Manufacture of Whips; and I'do hereby declare that the following, taken in connection with the drawings which accompany and form part of' this specification, is a description of my invention suiiicient to enable those skilled in the art to practice it.
' My improvements relate to whips,- in which a metal core is used at the center of the stock to give strength and elasticity; and
They consist in winding, covering. or braiding upon such core a thread or brous material, or a tine .Wire or strip of metal, before the corel is introduced into the stock; and, also, they further consist in such a Wound or covered metal core, the thread or other covering of which is, by means of an adhesive or cementitious matciial, caused to adhere or cling closely to the metal.
Figure l represents a whip made in accordance with my invention; Figure 2, asection, the metalcore being wound with an` adhering thread, or with a wire;
Figure 3, a'section, in which the thread is not caused to adhere by the use of a cementitious material; and
Figure 4, a section, in which a flat strip of paper or other' fibrous material, or a flat strip of metal, is wrapped about the cor In allAt-he figures the central metal core is marked A, and it is made of any suitable metal, but preferably of steel, and circular' or otherwise in cross-section, as may be desired, and may be made tapering or not. It may extend entirely through the whip, from end to end, or from the tip to any proper distance short of the butt.
B indicates a spirally-woundthread surrounding the metal, n0 adhesive material being employed to. canse the thread and metal to cling together.
C indicates a similarlyfxround thread, an adhesive material uniting or confining it closely to the metal. Italso illustrates a wire-wound'core.
D represents a covering, loosely braided, but closely confining the metal. p
E represents that portion of the whip-stock within which the wound or covered core is placed, andby which it is surrounded and protected.A
The advantage consequent upon my improvement:
is, that it entirely prevents the slipping ofthe metal within the stock when the whip is bent, and insures the bending, and springing back to their normal straight position,` both of the metal and its surrounding stock, as if they were one and ,the same material; such slipping, as experience has shown, allowing the one to ride upon the other in the act of bending, and preventing their straightening out equally, inasmuch as the frictional contact causes the stock to check the tendency of the metal to resume a straight line.
By reason of the wound or wrapping material leavingmore or less space between its coils or threads, the glue, pitch, or cementing material used to secure the wound corein its stock fills the interstices, and takes a rmer hold.
The wood or leather, or other material of the stock, when compressed upon the core in the ordinary process of manufact-ure, also becomes more or less indented by the Tapping material, and takes thereby a firmer hold.
I claim a whip, having a metallic core, when such `core has coiled or braided around it a strand or thread,
o'r a wire o1' ribbon, interposedbetween the core-enveloping strips and the surface of the core, substantially' as shown and described.
ADDISON C. RAND;

JOHN J. IlALsrnD, J. F. Beane.
