Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 27, 1915.
Application led February 17, 1915. Serial No. 8,986.
To auw/'1,0m t may concern Be it known that l, THOMAS P. A. F. sin, a subject of the King of England,
and a resident of Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented a new and improved Carpet-Strip, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
rlhis invention relates to improvements in carpet strips, and has for an object to provide an improved arrangement wherein nails, tacks and the like may be used for holding carpet in place when used on stone or cement floors.
Anotherl object in view is to provide a metallic strip adapted to receive a nail or other securing means for holding carpet in place, the strip being arranged so as to be readily used on floors, stairs and other places where it is desired to place a covering.
1n the accompanying drawings-Figure 1 is a perspective view of a section of carpet strip embodying the invention; Fig. 2 is a fragmentary tpansverse section through a loor and a carpet strip arranged therein; Fig. 8 is detailed fragmentary sectional view through part of a stair showing an embodiment of the invention arranged therein.
Referring to 'the accompanying drawings by numerals, 1 indicates a floor of cement, stone, brick or any other similar material. TNhen cement or similar material is used for a floor carpets cannot be readily secured thereto unless special means are provided for holding the carpet in place.
ln the drawing will be seen a construction designed to be embedded in the cement ioor and arranged to receive the securing nails, tacks or the like which are passed through the carpet. Arranged on the floor 1 is a padding 2 and on this padding 2 is arranged a carpet 3, the carpet and padding of course forming no part of the present invention. Extending through the carpet and padding is a nail or tack 1, the body 5 of which is inserted into the loop 6 of the strip 7. The strip 7 is provided with a loop 6 preferably wider at the point 8 than at the point 9 so as to pinch the tack near the point where the same enters the strip. The loop 6 is preferably spaced from the side walls 10 and 11 and 'arranged so as to merge into the side strips or feet 12 and 13. The
strips 12 and 13 are preferably provided with apertures 14 for receiving nails or other securing means. It is of course evident that the device could be used upon a door of wood as well as concrete or other material without departing from the spirit of the invention, as by such use nails could be applied and removed without injuring the floor. lt is to be noted that the strip 7 Vis continuous and extends from one side of the room to the other, or if desired may extend entirely around the room. rlhis allows the tacks or nails to be positioned at any point, and also allows the use of any desired number of tacks or nails.
The invention is designed to be used upon flooring, and also upon steps as shown in Fig. 3. From an examination of Fig. 3, it will be observed that the strip 7 is arranged at the juncture of the tread 15 and rise 16. By arranging the strip 7 at the juncture of the rise and tread the securing nail or tack d will be but of the way and the carpet will be properly held in position.
1. A carpet strip adapted to extend entirely across a room formed with a pair of upstanding portions forming a body and a depending loop, said loop extending for the full length of the strip and arranged with the upper part closer together than the lower part for presenting a resilient pinching member.
2. A metallic carpet strip formed with a depending loop extending the full length of the strip, being spaced somewhat from the body and thereby presenting a resilient structure whereby the strip is designed to receive and pinch securing members at any point.
3. -A carpet strip formed from a single sheet of metal bent so as to provide a pair of upstanding members and a depending loop arranged between said upstanding members, said depending loop being spaced from the upstanding members, said depending loop being adapted to receive carpet securing members, said carpet securing members being designed to be inserted into said loop and be firmly held thereby.
1. A metallic carpet strip comprising a structure formed from a single sheet of material bent so as to provide longitudinal retaining feet, a pair of upstanding walls spaced apart, and a depending loop arranged between said upstanding'walls and extending for the full length thereof, said Vlooploeing arranged so'that the same iS nearer together at the top than at the bot-V tom so as to pinch a securing member inserted into the loop adjacent the point of insertion. l
