'i To all whom timay concern.'
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. MELLoN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Link Bed-Bottom Fabrics, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to a wire link fabric of the kind commonly used in conjunction with helical tension springs attached to the end rails of bedsteads and serving as supports for bedding placed thereon. Fabrics of this kind, as most commonly made, comprise a plurality of chains made up of wire links and arrangedv in parallel rows. Io prevent the links of the chains from movement relat-ive to each other transversely of the bed bottom fabric and to prevent spreading of the links, they are commonly connected by short tie or spreader links, each of which is fastened individually at its two ends to two adjoining links of the fabric. The introduction of these short links into the fabric is very laborious and expensive if the transversely arranged links are applied to the fabric by hand, and involve the use of very expensive machinery, ifthe links are introduced into the fabric mechanically.
The object of .my invention is to' provide in a bed-bottom fabric of the kindherein referred to spacer wires that serve to connect the chain links of the fabric in series, and which are so constructed that they may be readily and quickly inserted into the fabric transversely of the chain links without tying them to the latter, thereby greatly simplifying the production of the fabric and rendering such production much less expensive of manufacture than it is when following the old method of utilizing `shortspacer links.
Figure I is an inverted plan view of a fragment of my bed bottom fabric. Fig..II is an inverted plan view illustrating a modification. l
In the accompanying drawings :--A- designates link chains extending longitudinally of my bed bottom fabric and comprising links a, each link being preferably made from a section of wire doubled to form an eye 3 at one end and a double hook 4 at the other end of the link. The links a are connected to each other by fitting the eye at lone end of a link to the hook 4 of the next adtion in thebed bottom fabric corresponding to that occupied by the crimp. 'The crimps,
as shown in the drawings, extend through.
the hooks 4. at ends of one transverse row of linksa, and embrace the eyes 3 vat ends of the links in the next adjoining transverse row which are confined within said hooks. As a consequence, the longitudinal chain links a are always maintained in properly spaced positions relative to each .other throughout the length of the bed bottom fabric, without the necessity of tying the spacing wires to the numerous chain links.
While I preferably make the spacer wires B of the length corresponding to the width of the bed bottom fabric into which they enter, I may, instead of so making them, utilize several spacer wire sections B, as seen in Fig. II,-each of which is provided with a plurality-of the crimps, the sections being connected to each other in a suit-A able manner, such as by providing eyes 6 at their ends, through the medium of which the sections are'connected.
I claim 1. The combination in a bed-bottom fabric, 7
of longitudinal rows of links, each link having an eye at one end and a hook at the other end, and transverse spacer'wies spanning said links in series and having crimps thereinin engagement with both the eyes and hooks of adjoining links 2. The combination in a bed-bottom fabric, of a plurality of chains com rising links each having a hook at one en and an eye at the other end, the hooks and eyes of acl- 5 joining links being connected, and transverse spacer Wires having crimpstherein at intervals 'located in the junctions of said links, said erimps being conned Within- In the presence of- A. J. MCCAULEY, E. B. LINN.
