BELT SPLICER. APPLICATION FILED APR. 1a, 1918.
Patented my 25,1920.

BELT-SPLICER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 25, 1920.
Application filed April 13, 1918. Serial No. 228,418.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I CLARENCE C. CLAY- nnne, a citizen of the llnited States, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and leather, rubber, or similar product or material, and has for one of its objects to provide a sim 1y constructed device which may be manu actured in large quantities and applied to the belt by any person without previous skill or knowledge.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character whereby the adjacent ends of a belt are effectually coupled and which also operates as a hinge joint to facilitate the passage of the belt around relatively small pulleys.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, as hereinafter shown and described and then specifically pointed out in the claim; and in the drawings illustrative of the preferred embodiment of the invention Figure 1 is a detached perspective view of one of the im roved devices.
Fig. 2 is a p an view and- Fig. 3 is a side view of one of the coupling elements detached.
Fig. 4 is a plan view, on a reduced scale,
of the confronting terminals of a belt with the improvement applied.
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of The improved device comprises a supporting rod 10, corresponding substantially in length to the width of the belt to which it is to be applied. Mounted for rotation upon the rod are a plurality of belt engaging devices, each preferably constructed from a section of wire with the terminals pointed and each initially bent near the ends ob-' liquely to the longitudinal axis thereof, as shown at 11. Each of the wire sections is coiled intermediate the ends as shown at 12 to form a loop to engage around the rod 10. The coils are located nearer one end of each wire section than the other, so that a relatively long portion or clamping arm 13 and a relatively short portion or clamping arm 14 is formed at each side of the loop or coil.
Each wire section thus formed constitutes a beltengaging unit and said units are ar ranged upon the rod 10 with the coils or loops side by side and with the portions 13--14 extending alternately in opposite directions from the rod, as shown in Fig. 1. After the belt fastening units are arranged upon the rod, the ends of the latter are pref-- erably upset by a suitable implement, to enlarge the ends and prevent the rod from being displaced.
To apply the improved device the rod 10 with its fastening devices attached as shown in Fig. 1 is disposed between the confront ing ends of the belt, portions of which are represented at 15. The belt may be provided with perforations to receive the terminals 11 or the latter may be forced through the belt. After the points are inserted through the belt the projecting portions thereof are clenched against the opposite side of the belt as illustrated in .Fi gs. 4i and 5. By this means the adjacent ends of the belt are effectually united, and the joint be tween them rendered movable by the rotation of the coils 12 of the fastening devices upon the rod when the belt is carried around pulleys. The fastening device thus forms a hinge joint between the terminals of the belt, which enables the latter to be carried around relatively small pulleys. The fastening devices are arranged with the longer and shorter ends thereof alternating at op posite sides of the rod, thereby distributing the apertures for the terminals 11 over a relatively large area of the belt and obviating danger of weakening the belt.
Any required number of the fastening devices may be employed upon each rod, depending upon the width of the belt. The air rangement of the fastening units with the coils or loops nearer one end than the other is an important feature, as the perforations in the belt are thereby scattered or distributed over a relatively large area of the belt surfaces, thus preventing the weakening of the belt.
The improved device is simple in construction, can be inexpensively manufactured in large quantities and furnished to the trade as an article of manufacture.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
As a new article of manufacture, a belt fastening comprising a supporting rod and a plurality of sections each formed of a single Wire bent into a coil to produce upper and loWer clamping arms of difierent lengths terminating in anchoring spurs all of the arms on one side of the rod and on one face of the belt being oi the same length and all of the arms on the same side of the rod and on the opposite face of the belt being of the same length and longer than the first mentioned arms, the anchoring 10 spurs of all of said arms being adapted to be extended through the belt from one face thereoi and bent flat against the other face of the belt and the anchoring spurs of the long arms being arranged in, transverse alinement across the opposite faces of the belt and spaced longitudinally from and disposed out of alinement with the anchoring terminals of the short arms.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
CLARENCE CHARLES OLAYBERG. [L. 8.]
