PACKAGE-TIE.
- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 11, 1916.
Application filed August 5, 1914. Serial No. 855,224.
United States, residing at Scranton and Honesdale, respectively, in the counties of Lackawanna and Wayne, respectively, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Package-Ties, of which the following isv a specification.
The invention relates to package ties, and has for its primary object to provide a tie of this character wherein mail matter such as letters, newspapers, or the like, can be bundled and conveniently and quickly tied to form a package for the easy handling thereof during transit, the tie being of novel form to insure the quick and easy fastening of the cord when wrapped about the bundle without liability of the same becoming loose, thereby enabling the safe transportation of the package.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a tie of this character wherein one end of the flexible cord can be readily and easily engaged therewith for the permanent connection of the same, while the other end of the cord can be adjustably and detachably engaged so that it can be drawn tight about a package and fastened to hold the same intact.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a tie of this character which is simple in construction, capable of being made from a single strand of Wire, thoroughly reliable and efficient in its purpose, and inexpensive in manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed'out in the claim hereunto appended.
In the drawings :.Figure l-isaperspeo' tive view of a package of letters, showing the tie constructed in accordance with the invention applied. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the tie. Fig. 3 is an edge elevation thereof.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail, 5 designates the package, which in this instance is representative of mail matter for transportation, and is merely shown to illustrate the manner of application of the package tie hereinafter fully described.
The package tie comprises a resilient outwardly tapered or substantially triangular frame 6, preferably made from a single strand of relatively stifi yet resilient wire,
1 the overlapped ends 7 of which are joined by solder or otherwise at thesmaller extremity of the frame, while one side stretch of the frame is bent to form a diagonally protruding eye 8 through which is passed a flexible cord 9 which may be of any desirable length, and is adapted to be trained about the package 5 for the tying thereof. The side stretch of the'frame 6 opposite the eye 8 isbent to form a substantially triangular shaped loop 10 and a bill 11 which pro-- jects into the frame 6, and is slightly upwardly curved to permit the insertion of the free end portion of the cord between it and the frame, the looped portion 10 being offset relative to the wider end of the frame so that the cord when trained about the corners of the loop 10 and between the bill 11 of the frame 6, it will enter the loop for the secure fastening of the said end to pre vent the slipping thereof, the frame at the wider end thereof and the loop being respectively formed with bights 12 and 13, respectively, to receive the cord when the same is wrapped for the complete fastening of the free end of the said cord so as to pre vent the slipping of the said end, as the bill 11 with the loop 10 frictionally binds the cord when wrapped about the latter.
From the foregoing it is thought that the construction and manner of use of the device will be clearly understood, and therefore a more extended explanation has been omitted.
What is claimed is A package tie comprising a substantially triangularly shaped resilient frame formed from a single strand of relatively stiff wire having its ends united toeach other, one side stretch of the frame-being bent to form a protruding eye, the stretch of the frame opposite the eye being bent to form a substantially triangularly shaped loop and a bill projected into the frame, the said looped portion being ofiset relative to the wider end of the frame, the said bill being slightly upwardly curved, the said frame and loop In testimony whereof We affix our signabelng formed respectively with blghts and tures 1n presence of two Witnesses.
a cord fixed in the eye at one of its ends PAUL F. WESTON.
and adapted to be trained about the corners JOHN N. SHARPSTEEN. of the loop and between the bill for en-- WVitnesses:
trance into the loop to securely fasten the JAMES Mom,
said cord. J. GOLDENBERG.
