Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 6, 1911.
Patented Jan. 7, 1913.
Serial No. 619,379.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ROBERT (J. CLARK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ralston, in the county of Pawnee, State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Twine-Holders; and I do herebydeclare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to twine racks and particularly to that type which is adapted to be supported above a counter or the like.
The invention has for its object to construct a device of this character, which will automatically draw the end of the twine upwardly and away from the counter so thatthe same will not become tangled, but will be at all times in convenient reach for use.
In the drawings :Figure 1 is a side view showing the same supported on a portion of a shelf. Fig. 2 is an end view. Fig. 3 is a detailed perspective view of the weight.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a portion of a shelf and to which the rack proper is adapted to be hingedly connected. The rack proper consists of a horizontal upper bar 2 and a horizontal lower bar 3, the upper bar 2 being formed of greater length than the lower bar. The bars 2 and 3 are held in spaced relation by vertical uprights 4. It will be noted that the inner end of theh'orizontal bar 2 projects slightly beyond the inner vertical upright 4: and that the lower horizontal bar 3 projects at both ends slightly beyond the ends of the horizontal bars 2 and 3.
outer vertical upright 4: is formed an opening 7, said opening being in alinement with the eye of the guide 6 so that twine passing through the eye .6 may bethreaded through the opening 7 and from thence through a longitudinal opening 8 formed in the weight 9. The weight 9 is provided with a vertical opening 10 and is thereby adapted for vertical movement on a tie rod 11 preferably formed from metal. It will be noted that the tie rod 11 has its lower end secured in the outwardly projecting end of the bar 3 and its upper end secured in the upper bar 2, thereby not only constituting a guide for the weight but also acting as a tie or brace to add rigidity to the rack proper.
Secured upon the under side of the outward extension of theupper horizontal bar 2 are a plurality of guide eyes 12, and through which the twine is threaded and guided to the extreme outer end of said bar, and where the same will hang in a convenient position for use.
From this construction it will be seen that when a bundle or the like is being tied and a sufficient amount of twine has been unwound from the cone or ball the weight will assume aposition as shown in dotted lines of Fig. 1, and as soon as the bundle or the like has been tied the weight will assume the position as shown in full lines of Fig. 1, thereby pulling the twine through certain of the guide eyes and away from the connected to the lower horizontal bars in spaced relation to its front end to form a consequent support, of a guide rod disposed in advance of the front bars and having its ends respectively connected to the guide arm and support, a twine receiving spindle centrally supported on the lower horizontal bar, a twine guide secured to the upper horizontal arm directly above the spindle, In testimony whereoit' I affix Iny signasaid front arm being formed adjacent its ture, in presence of two witnesses. upper end with a twine receiving aperture,
