TRUNK STRAP APPLICATION FILED MAR. 15. 1916.
Patented Oct. 31, 1916.
JONES WISTER, 0F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
TRUNK-STRAP.
I Specification of Letters Patent;
Patented Oct. 31, 1916.
Application filed March 15, 1916. Serial No. 84,360.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JONES \Vrsrnn, a citizen of the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Trunk Straps, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a trunk strap with an elastic section so that the slack, due to the buckling of the strap,
will be taken up by the said section.
My invention can be a separate element arranged to be applied to a strap, or it may form part of the strap.
In the accompanying drawings :-Figure 1, is a perspective view of a trunk strap, showing the elastic section detachably se-' cured thereto; Fig. 2, is a detached side View of the elastic section; Fig. 3, is a perspective view showing the elastic section forming an integral part of the strap; and Fig. l is a view showing the strap applied to a trunk.
In applying straps to trunks it has always been exceedingly difficult to place enough tension on the strap to hold it rigidly onto the trunk, and to accomplish this purpose the straps were strained and, in many instances, broken. If a strap is -not tightly secured to a trunk it has very little value as an additional fastening to keep the lid to the body of the trunk. By
providing a heavy elastic section, it will take up the slack without weakening the strap. Experience has shown that a strap of this type will hold the parts of the trunk together sufficiently well for transportation.
Referring to the drawings, 1 is a trunk strap having a. buckle 2 at one end and'perforated, as at 3, for the tongue of the buckle.
4: is an elastic section having a buckle 5 at one end and a perforated end 6, preferably of leather, secured to the elastic section e by stitching. The rubber strands in the elastic section run longitudinally and are inclosed in heavy webbing. These rubber strands are made exceedingly heavy soas to resist the severe strains to which a trunk strap is usually subjected.
In some instances, the strap may have the elastic section 4* incorporated with it, as in Fig. 3, in which the buckle section 2 is attached to one end of the elastic section and the main body of the strap 1 is attached to the opposite end of the elastic section. In some cases, where the strap is permanently secured to the trunk, the elastic section can be made as shown in Fig. 2,
j with the exception that instead of the buckle the section is fastened securely to the body of the trunk, there being a. buckle which is permanently attached to the trunk in the ordinary manner.
Nhile I have shown one form of buckle, it will be understood that any suitable buckle or fastening device may be used, without departing from the main feature of the invention.
I claim The combination of a. strap adapted to be passed around a trunk and to hold it in its closed position, said strap having at one end a buckle and at the opposite end a tongue adapted to the buckle; with an elastic section having a buckle at one end adapted to the tongue of the main strap and a tongue at the opposite end adapted to the buckle of the main strap so that when the strap is applied to a trunk the slack can be taken up.
