Description

RaTnnT @Tricia JOSEPH F. RUSLING, OF LAVVRENCEVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN. BALE-TIES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 120,104, dated October 17, 1871.
To all whom t may concern:
Beit known that I, JOSEPH F. RUsLING, of Lawrenceville, in the county of Tioga and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in BaleTie; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification.
This invention relates to'aaiew and useful improvement in ties or fastenings for bands in baling cotton, straw, hay, and all similararticles; and consists in a lever curved at its fulcrum end and having a slightly spiral or irregular form at its free end, by means of which the ends of the bend are broughttogether by a lever purchase, and the fastening made secure by passing the long end of the lever beneath the band or wire, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure l represents a side view of the tie as connected with a round wire band and fastened. Fig. 2 is a top view of the same. Fig. 3 shows the tie as attached to a flat or hoop-iron band.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A and B represent the ends of the band. C is a link attached to the part A. D is the lever. The other end of the band is attached to the lever at E. The lever is curved near its fulcruln end, as seen at F, so that when the tail or long end is passed through the link O the link will slide down toward the fulcrum, thereby giving a constantlyincreasing leverage as the long end of the lever is brought down to the bland. In this manner the band is strained tightly around the bale in the act of fastening the tie. The lever is made slightly' spiral, or so curved near its long end that when the end is tucked under the band as seen in the drawing the part B rests in the curve, while the strain at the point of resistance (near the fulcrum) makes the fastening complete.
The operation, where a iiat or hoop-band is em ployed, is the same in effect but a link is-not used; the ends of the band are simply perforated,'as seen at G and H, G forming the fulcrum and H allowing the wire I to be rmly attached as seen at J, Fig. 3. The lever is attached to the other end of I. In fastening, the hand at Gr slides in` the curve of the lever with the effect before stated, and the end of the lever is tucked under the wire, as seen in the drawing,m The long end of the lever is readily disengaged by a slight blow of a hammer or with an awl or spike, when' the elasticity ofthe bale will throw the ends asunder and loosen the band without cutting or otherwise injuring the tie.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The lever D provided with the hook-shaped fulcrum end E and having its free end made in a spiral form, as shown, to adapt it `to be tucked under the band and hold itself in position, as set forth. Witnesses: JOSEPH F. RUSLING.
