WILLIAM H. DAY AND SAMUEL S. DAY, OF ROGAN'VILLE, TEXAS.
TIE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 21, 1919.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, WILLIAM H. DAY and SAMUEL S. DAY, citizens of the United States, residing at Roganville, in the county of Jasper and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Tie, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to ties, and its object is to provide a device whereby bundles of various kinds may be expeditiously tied or untied without wastage of cord and in materially less time than is employed in tying a bundle in the ordinary manner.
The invention comprises an elongated plate, preferably of metal, with a cord or string fast at one end, and the other end of the plate being recessed, curved and notched, and the plate at an intermediate point being provided with a stud, whereby the cord may be wrapped about a bundle and about the stud, and then carried beneath the plate in a manner to effectively secure the cord with a minimum number of motions.
The invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following detailed description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, with the further understanding that while the drawings show a practical form of the invention, the latter is not confined to any strict conformity with the showing of the drawings but may be changed and modified so long as such changes and modifications come within the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of a bundle of letters secured together by the tie of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the tie and bundle of Fig. 1, with the section taken a short distance to one side of the longitudinal center line of the arrangement of Fig. 1;
Figs. 3 to 6 are plan views with the stud in cross section, showing different steps in applying the tie. I
Referring to the drawings, there is shown an elongated and substantially rectangular plate 1, such particular shape, however, not being obligatory. The plate 1 1s or may be curved slightly in the direction of its length, since most bundles when tied bulge more or less. The plate may conveniently be made of sheet aluminum of sufficiently heavy gage,
such metal being strong and light, and as the plates may be used repeatedly, the cost of the metal is not material.
At one end, the plate 1 is provided with a perforation 2 to which is secured one end of a cord 3 by tying the cord through the perforation in the form of a knot 4. Of course, any other means of securing the cord to the plate may be employed. Close to the perforation 2 the plate 1 has a hole 5 formed therethrough, this constituting a convenient means for hanging up the plate when not m use.
That end of the plate 1 remote from the perforation 2 is provided with a longitudinally extended entering recess 6 which may be somewhat less in length than one-half the length of the plate 1. The end of the plate into which the recess 6 enters and on opposite sides of the slot has bent portions 7 on one side of the general plane of the plate. One edge of the plate 1 at a point about opposite the inner end of the recess 6 is provided with a notch 8. In line with the recess 6 and between its inner end and the hole 5 and located about midway of the length of the plate is a headed stud 9 rising from the bulging face of the plate. If, now, the plate 1 be applied upon one face of a bundle 10, which may be considered as a bundle of letters, the stud 9 will be on that face of the plate remote from the bundle, and the bent ends 7 will be in spaced relation to the face of the bundle to which the plate is applied.
The cord 3, which may be considered as loose otherwise than where connected to the plate, is carried about the adjacent end of the bundle, along that face of the bundle remote from the plate, and back about the other end of the bundle toward the stud 9, the cord extending lengthwise through the recess 6. The cord is carried about the stud 9 to the extent of about a quarter turn, and then around one side of the bundle, underneath the latter and back to the stud 9 about the other side of the bundle, but is carried about the stud in a direction opposite to the part of the cord first carried a out the stud. The cord, after finally leaving the stud, is slipped under the raised or bent ends 7 and forced underneath the plate, and carried along under the plate but over the first laid portion of the cord where traversing the recess 6 until the cord enters the notch 8 and confines that portion of the cord extending through the recess 6 against the inner end oi: recess. The friction is sufficient to hold: the cord against any tendency of the expansive force of the bundle to pull the cord loose.
The tying of the bundle is Very expeditiously performed, since it merely requires,
two movements to wrap the cord in opposite directions about the bundle, a. turn about the stud 9 and a single movement carrying the cord beneath the raised or bent ends 7" until? movement is stopped by the recess" 8? and that portion of thescord within. the reii t 'cess 6 at the inner end thereof.
In the foregoing "description, the term cord as applied to the'member 3 is to be understood as covering any suitablemember answering thepurpose for which the cord isused, The term platevasreferring to: the
whether of: aluminum or: other niateria'li,
That end of the plate or body member 1 diyiide dinto"two p'arts by'the recess Sand terminating: in the bent extremity 7 may be. considered as formed. of two fingers; spaced-apart by the recess 6: sufficiently to.
