THOMAS M. ELKINS, 01? DUFFAU, TEXAS.
COTTON 0R DRAG SACK PROTECTOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 20, 1911.
Patented Apr. 2, 1912. Serial No. 622,406.
To all whom it may concern? Be it known that I, THOMAS M. ELKINS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Du'tl'au, in the county of llrath and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cotton or Drag Sack Protectors, of which the following is a specifi cation. reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to cotton or drag sack protectors which are used to protect the portion of the sack which drags along the ground and thereby prevent it from being worn through.
The principal object of the invention is to so construct the protector that it will entirely cover the portion of the sack which drags along the ground and also so that it will protect the hooks which secure it to the sack.
Another object of the invention is to pro vide a second protector which will prevent sticks onother objects from passing between the sack and the first mentioned protector and injure the hooks which secure the first mentioned protector to the sack.
Referring to the accompanying drawings:--I igure 1 is aview showing the sack as it would appear when in use. Fig. 2 is a side view of the sack and protector the guard being shown in section. Fig. 3 is a fragmentary view of the bottom face of the plate and sack. Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary View showing the manner of securing the plate. F ig. 5 is a perspective View of the protector removed from the sack. Fig. (3 is a perspective View of a slightly modified form of protector from that shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a perspective View of a scoop-shaped protector. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a protector formed of corrugated material. F ig. 9 is a perspective View of a perforated protector. Fig. 10 is a perspective view of a protector formed of strips of material. Fig. 11 is a fragmentary view showing one half of a scoop shaped protector formed of corrugated strips of perforated material.
This invention comprises a sack 1, which is preferably formed of heavy cloth, and is provided at the mouth with a loop 2 by means of which the sack is dragged along the ground. This sack is of such length that the loop can be placed over the shoulder, and the principal part of the sack will drag -upon the ground as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Two strips 0 and 1 are, secured to the sack and extend from the mouth along the under surface of the sack for approximately one-half of the length of the sack. The strips are unsecured for a portion of their length and each has one end portion formed into a loop 5 in which is positioned a me tallic ring or snap 6. A strip 7 of suitable material is secured to the sack and to the unattached portions of the strips and serves as a guard for a plate which will be described hercinafter. A pair of snap hooks or rings 8 are secured to the sack in alinement with the strips 3 and f so that the metal rings or snaps (3 can be engaged by the snap hooks 0r rings. A protecting plate 9 is provided with an opening 10 in each of the forward corners and these openings are so positioned that they will be in alinement with the strips 3 and iwhen the plate is in position as shown. in Fig. 3. This plate may either he formed of any desired material, such for instance as heavy leather, or thin wood or any suitable metal. It can be made flat or can be corrugated as shown in Fig. 8, and if desired can be provided with a curved forward portion as shown in Figs. and 6, the one in Fig. 6 being provided with a pointed forward end.
In Fig. 7 I have shown the side portions 11 and the forward portion 12 rolled so that the plate is in the form of a scoop in which the sack rests. The plate shown in Fig. 9 is formed of thin material and is provided with the openings 13, so that the weight. of the protector will be reduced. The protector shown in Fig. 10 is formed from longitudinally extending strips 14 which are connected by the cross strips 15. This type would be very serviceable as it is very light and therefore, easy to handle. The forward end of the protector 9 extends beyond the snap hooks and protects them so that if the protector 7 is left off the snap hooks will not be injured by sticks or stones. With reference to Fig. 2 it will be seen that this plate is positioned beneath the portion of the sack which drags along the ground and has its forward end extending into the space between the protecting strip 7 and the body of the sack. The ends of the strips 3 and 4 are passed through the openings 10 and the loops 6 are connected by the snap hooks 8. These hooks hold the ends of the strips so that the plate is held securely in position and the protecting strip 7 prevents any danger of sticks or rocks getting between the plate and the sack or of breaking the hooks or cutting the securing strips and permit ting the plate to get loose.
It should be noted that the strips 3 and 4 are secured for the greater part of their length to the sack so that the strain does not come upon one point of the sack, but is evenly distributed, and, therefore, the danger of tearing the sack is greatly reduced. It should also be noted that the protecting strip 7 is secured to the strips 3 and 4 as well as to the sack, and may be used or not, optionary with user or maker of sack.
What I claim is i 1. A device of the character described comprising a sack, a plurality of strips secured to the under surface of said sack, said strips being unattached for portions of their lengths, a transverse strip secured to said sack and to said unattached portions of said first mentioned strips, means carried by said sack and covered by said transverse strip to secure the ends of said first mentioned strips, and a protecting plate provided in one end with openings through which the unsecured portions of said first mentioned strips are passed to hold said plate in position.
2. A device of the character described comprising a sack, a protecting plate secured to said sack, and a transverse strip secured to said sack and overlapping the forward edge of said plate.
3. A device of the character described comprising a sack, a protecting plate provided with openings in one end, a plurality of longitudinally extending strips secured to said sack and passing through said openings to hold said plate in place, and a transverse protecting strip secured to said sack and said longitudinally extending strips and overlapping said protecting plate.
4. A device of the character described comprising a sack, a protecting plate provided with openings adjacent its forward end, strips secured to said sack and passing through said openings, and means secured to the under surface of said sack to secure the ends of said strips to hold said protecting plate in place, the forward portion of said protecting plate extending beyond said securing means.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in presence. of two witnesses.
THOMAS M. ELKINS.
