WHS'edamQ UNTTED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM H. SEDAM, F MOORES HILL, INDIANA.
BUNDLE-TIE.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. SEDAM,
. a citizen of the United States, residing at Moores Hill, in thecounty of Dearborn, State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bundle-Ties; and I do hereby declare 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 devices for securing bundles of any character, but more particularly for use in securing bundles of fodder and like commodities, and has for one of its objects to improve the construc tion and increase the efficiency and utility of devices of this character.
With this and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction as hereafter shown and described and then specifically pointed out in the claims, and in the drawings illustrative of the preferred embodiment of the invention, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improved device applied. Fig. 2 is a view of the improved device in open position. Fig. 8 is a view of the improved device partly closed to illustrate its operation.
The improved device comprises a needle member represented as a whole at 10, and preferably formed of wood and tapered at the ends, one end portion being smaller than the other and provided with a transverse aperture 11 and with a slot leading from the aperture toward the smaller end of the needle member and communicating with the aperture. The needle member is also provided with a transverse curved notch 13 intermediate its ends. A flexible element formed from a piece of binding twine, rep resented as a whole at 14, and with an enlargement 16 at one end, the enlargement being preferably formed by tying a knot in the flexible member. The flexible member is also provided with a loop 17 at the opposite end, the latter being preferably formed by what is known as a bowline hitch or a knot which will not slip. The flexible member will be of sufficient length to fit around the bundle which is to be tied, and will vary in length according to the bundle upon which it is to be employed. The needle will be formed preferably from hard wood, and for ordinary purposes will be about eight and one-fourth inches in length and seven-eighths Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 645,926.
of an inch in thickness at the thicker por tion, but these dimensions may be varied as required.
lVith an implement thus described the operation will be as follows: The flexible member is passed through the aperture 11 and into the slot 12 and drawn through the same until the enlargement 16 bears against the body of the needle member 10, as shown. The needle member is then passed around the bundle and the larger end passed through the loop 17 which is held in the other hand by the operator. The member 1 1 is then drawn tightly around the bundle until the loop engages in the notch 13. The needle member is then moved or employed as a lever to draw the loop toward the notch 16, which operation will cause the loop to slip down over the needle member and over the smaller apertured end and over the enlarged end 16. Then the needle member is turned laterally and pressed into the bundle of fodder to complete the operation, and to lock the flexible member in position thereon.
The improved device is simple in construction, can be inexpensively manufactured, and readily adapted without structural change for use with any required ma terial or commodity, but as before stated is more particularly adapted for use in tying fodder in the fields after cutting. The improved device may also be employed for binding grain of different kinds.
What is claimed is 1. A bundle tie comprising a needle member of tapered formation throughout its length, the ends of said needle member being oppositely tapered, the smaller end of the needle member being provided with a transverse circular aperture having a longitudinally extending slot communicating there with and the intermediate portion of the needle at one side coincident with one of the open sides of the aperture and slot being provided with a transverse curved notch.
2; A bundle tie comprising a needle member of tapered formation throughout its length, the ends of said needle member being oppositely tapered, the smaller end of the needle member being provided with a transverse circular aperture having a longitudinally extending slot communicating therewith and the intermediate portion of the needle at one side coincident with one of the open sides of the aperture and slot being provided with a transverse curved notch, said needle being adapted for use in conjunction with a flexible element having a loop at one end engaged in the notch and an enlargement at its other end insert-ible through the aperture and held from displacement in the slot, whereby when the flexible member is compressed around a bundle and the needle moved toward the extremity of the flexible member connected with the slotted end of the needle to stretch the flexible member, said loop will automatically disengage from the notch and needle and move over the remaining end of the flexible member whereby it may be tied.
In testimony whereof, I aflix my signa ture, in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM H. SEDAM.
