1 mw n 4 M M W. J M E m U a r P M h V v N w, W. V w 7 W 1 w m. 1 WW6 LA FAYETTE JAKE RICHARDSON, 0F COLUMBUS, MISSISSIPPI, ASSIGNOR 0F ONE-HALF TO J. Q. STAPLES, OF STEWART, MISSISSIPPI.
CAR-SEAL.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, LA FAYETTE JAKE RICHARDSON, a citizen of the United States, residing in Columbus, in the county of Lowndes and State of Mississippi, have invented a new and useful Car-Seal, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in car seals, wherein a blank, of the configuration shown in the accompanying drawing, can have each integral part successively so bent, as to form a lock incapable of being opened without destructive mutilation of the seal terminating its utility.
The objects of my invention are: first, to produce a blank, the successive folds of whose integral parts will form a secure seal to a freight car in transit; second, to produce an inexpensive blank that will attain within itself by easy manual manipulation an efiective seal; and third, to secure these results with structural simplicity and econ- I attain these ends by means of the seal shown in difierent attitudes in the accompanying drawing, wherein- Figure 1 represents a plan of the seal blank as manufactured; Fig. 2 represents a plan view thereof, after the first fold on the lines BB of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 represents a plan view of the blank after the second fold, on the lines AA of Fig. 1; Fig. drepresents a plan view of the blank after two more folds are made thereof respectively on the lines C and D of Fig. 1; and Fig. 5 is a side elevation, partly in section, on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4..
The same designations indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
The blank has at one end of the sealing portion a long arm 1, slotted at 2 and pointed at 3, as shown, and a short arm a at the other end thereof. Projecting rectangularly from the arm 1, is an extension 5 parallel therewith, adapted to be bent on the line AA, and a downward extension 7, also parallel therewith, adapted to be bent on the lines BB. The extension 7 has an integral prolongation 6 thereof adapted to copies of this patent may be obtained for Specification of Letters Patent.

7, said extension 7 terminating in a part 8 which is adapted to be folded on dotted lines to produce the parts 8 and 8 by which the seal is secured, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, and rests in the bed a.
The operation of my blank is as follows: First, the part 8 is bent upwardly on the dotted lines; second, the part 7 is bent on the lines BB to superimpose arm 1; third, the part 5 is folded on lines A A to superpose part 7 fourth, the prolongation 6 is folded on line C to superpose part 5; fifth, the short arm t is bent on line D, to superpose part 6; sixth, the arm 1 is then bent to form a loop, and the pointed end 3 is passed between the upper surface of the inner part of arm 1 and the under surface of part 7, until the slot 2 engages the parts '8 and 8 seventh, the short arm at is then bent, in this manner forming a reliable, economical seal to lock the door of a freight car.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is:
As a new article of manufacture, a blank capable of transformation into a car seal, consisting of a long and short arm antipodally arranged from the central body; lateral upward and downward extensions from the central body adapted successively to be folded upon each other; the downward extension provided with a locking part, normally resting in a bed of the central body, and having portions bent at an angle to receive the slot of the long arm of the blank; and the short arm, folding upon the upward extension; the whole cooperating as and for the purpose described.
Witness my signature this March the 31st,
L. F. JAKE RICHARDSON. WVitnesses:
