gangs of staple-shaped hooks, as more fully hereinafter described and particularly pointed out "in the claims.
. In the drawings: Fi ure l is aperspective View of..,a vportion of tie endof a belt c0hnected bymy improved device, showing the connecting-strip partially removed; Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the gang of hooks; Fig. 3 is a side elevation thereof; Fig. i is a top plan thereof; and Fig. 5' is a perspective of the connectingstrip. 1 At the present time a well-known means of fastening meeting ends ofbelts is to secure to each end series of staple-shaped hooks, A, interlocking the loop ends of these hooks upon the adjoining ends of the belt, H, and passing a pinthrough, which looks them pivotally together. These hooks are usually sold" in bulk, and to apply them the hooks are picked out separately and dropped into slots in a machiue until the desired number has been assembled for the belt, the
belt inserted. and the hooks collapsed tose-v cure them to the belt. These hooks in bulk interlock with each other so that it requires some little time to pick out the desired num her, and it also takes time to put them in the machine. This not only means the loss of time of the but possibly of a ma- 7 or machines which the belt was driv- -ing'so that it isa material desideratum to y do the work promptly as possible.
It has been proposed to gang the hooks and my invention is an improved form or means of temporarily holding them in.
gangs, so that they may be more quickly picked out of the box and placed in the mastantially ll-shaped, or staple-shaped, with inwardly-projecting prongs, or teeth, B, at their ends. The two legs, 0 and I), of these staple-shaped hooks, are of unequal length, so as to stagger the location of the teeth entering the belt. It is customary, to alternate the long and short legs on each side for this purpose.
To secure-a series or gang of these hooks together, I make a corrugated strip E, pre erably of thin metal, the corrugations being spaced the desired distance the hooks are to be placed; and secure all of these strips to the legs of the series of staples, on one side.
This may be done by any suitable cement,
preferably by a pyroxylin cement. I may, and preferably do, put two of these securingstrips on, one on each side, and leave a slightly projecting end portion F. It Is obvious that this secures the series or gang together, so that they may be taken up together and placed in position in the ma chine, and that the alternate arrangement of the long and short legs is assured, if the gauging is properly'done. The side strips may be left on but it is preferable to remove them.
.When applied to the belt, by taking hold of the projecting end portions of the strips, they may be torn off. This is very easily done, as the operation .of connecting them to the belt will break or loosen the CGIIIQIllJ SO that in many cases the strips will be actually or nearly disconnected.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. A. series of staple-shaped lacing hooks and ganging-strips arranged across the outer faces ofboth legs of the hooks and secured thereto by a frangible cement.
ii/The combination of a series of stapleshaped lacing hooks, and gauging-strips arranged on the outer faces of both legs of the hooks and secured thereto by a frangible pyroxylin cement.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
