JAMES '1. AgTODD, 0F FORT WORTH, TEXAS.
BALE-TIE BUCKLE.
Specification of Letters Fatent. I Patented Ju ie 10, 1919,
Application filed January 18, 1918. Serial No. 212,512.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES T. A. TODD, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Fort Worth, in the county of Tarrant and State of Texas, have invented certain Improvements in Bale-Tie Buckles, of whichthe following is a specification.
My invention relates to bale tie buckles and more particularly to buckles adapted for use on high density cotton bales; and the object is to provide asimple buckle which has the requisite strength and which can be tied on the bales with great rapidity and which can be used at the gins asthe bales are first made and which can be rapidly removed from the bales of cotton when taken to the compresses without injury to the buckle or to the band and which will be ready for immediate reuse on either the standard bale or the high density compressed bale. Other objects and advantages will be fully explained in the following description and the invention will be more particularly pointed out in the claims.
Reference is had to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this application.
Figure l is a front elevation of the buckle. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a rear or inside elevation of the same. Fig. 4 is a front elevation with a tie or band applied thereto.
Similar characters of reference are used to indicate the same parts throughout the several views.
The improved buckle is made of cylindrimember 3 engages the free end 4 of the tie or band when the tie is placed on the compressed bale.
The necessary strength is given to the buckle by bending the wire into the form shown. Leverage is given to the buckle by bending the same at 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. The bending or kinking of the wire gives addltional strength to the buckle because of the shorter leverage and the distribution or equalizing of the strain. The bend 6 which connects the body or tie engaging member 2 to the bent or actuated side 7 gives a powerful leverage which is strong enough to prevent the member 2 from being drawn out straight with the member 7. Then the tie or band 1 will be bent by the strain which .form shown in Fig; 4. The bend 8 will have thesam'e eeffct on member 3 as the bend 6 has on the member 2 and the tie or band will be bent at the free end 4 when the strain comes on the band, as shown in Fig. 4:. The edges of the band will conform to the bends 6' and 8 and 5, so that there can be no slipping of the band on the buckle. The band will not be sheared onthe cylindricalsurface of the buckle.
The ends of the buckle are beveled at 10 and 11 at the corner opening so that the band or tie can be quickly inserted. By such arrangement the bands can be placed on the bales and secured by the buckles with great rapidity.
The buckles are made of a width to accommodate the widest bands or ties. In case of bands narrower than the space with in the buckle, the band is crowded over against the bends 6 and 8. The band is first The hook formed by the bend 5 performs a double function because it prevents the buckle from dropping from the tie should it not be securely fastened by hammering the,
tie down in the bend 12 at the point 14:. The opening in the corner makes the removal of the buckle from the end 4 easily accomplished. The hook formed by the bend 5 protects the tie after the tie has been secured on the part 9.
What I claim, is,
1. A bale tie buckle formed of a single piece of steel wire bent to a substantially quadrangular form having a side member and two band engaging members all bent inwardly intermediate their ends to create a leverage for adding strength to the buckle.
2. A bale tie buckle formed of a single piece of steel wire bent to a substantially quadrangular form open at one corner and having a side bar and two band engaging members all bent inwardly intermediate their ends for increasing the strength thereof and for forming bends for kinking or bending the bands laterally when strain comes on the bands.
3. A bale tie buckle formed of a single piece of steel wire bent to a substantially quadrangular form open at one corner and holding member and two band engaging members and a guard member all bent -in wardly intermediate their ends to create a leverage for adding strength to the buckle.
5. The combination of a bale tie and a bale tie buckle formed of a single piece of steel wire bent to a substantially quadranbeinghammered in said inward bend.
6. The combination of a bale tie and a buckle therefor having a single piece of steel wire bent to ageneral rectangular form open at one corner and having two tie engaging members provided with inward bends intermediate the ends thereof and having oneside holding member connecting the upper and lower tie engaging members and said tie having the portions thereof outside of the upper member bent into the bend of the outside of said uppermember.
Intestimony whereof, I set my hand, this 5th J an. 1918. v
