Speciication of Letters Patent.7T i Patnted an. 3, 1922.
Application led October 22,1920. Serial No.v 418,715.
To all whom t may concern: ,A
Be it known that4 I, JOSEPHW. WATKINS, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Ridgely, in the county of Lake and State of Tennessee, `have invented `certain new and useful Improvements Sacks; and I'dovhereby declare the following to bea full, clear, a-ndvezract description ofthe invention, such' as will enable others skilledk in the art to which` it appertains to' make and use the same. Y present invention relates to improvements in cotton pickers sacks, and is intended to provide an arrangement in which there is a minimum ofrloss due to wear and tear on the sack. f Y
Cotton f picker sacks l as now ordinarily manufactured are of considerable length and trailupon the ground when in use, with the result thatsharpstones, stubble, or the like cut *or` rapidly wear out that portion of the I have endeavored to correct this defect in my Patents Nos. 1,300,065, granted Aprily 8, 1919 and 1,317,532, granted September` 30, 1919, and entitled 'respectively improve ments in cotton pickers sacks, yin which I provide a reversible arrangement in which the sackmight beturnedthrough 180, thus providing two surfaces kfor wear.
` In the prior art it has been customaryy to use a long integralv sack,with the result that if the" bottom became worn out the whole sack became useless.
According to my present invention I pro-v Y vide a sack with an upper more or less per- Y manent portion which is not likely to wear out except through longl usage, and a detachable lower portion which may be quickly attached to or removed from the upper pory tion, and which may be renewed as often as desired. A
Another feature of the invention is that b v having the sack formed of two portions,
with the lower portion detachable towards the lower end of the sack, it is feasible not in` Cotton-Pickers ordinary cotton pickers sack from either ory both ends; but accordingrto my present invention I contemplate emptying the sack from substantially the middle of the'belt occu iedvby the cotton.
angle to. take care of ,worn portions of the yA present invention Vis vfu rther intended to provide a bag detachably connected to the .lower end of the cotton picker sackvproper, r, vwhich may `be rotated through any `desired attachment, so that the attachment may be.
used and reeusedl until practically worn out 0n all sides.
` In my'latest improvement in cotton picker l sacks I purpose to construct theupper part of the sack of very much lighter and cheaper material ythan the lower part which'is subjectedfto wear yand tear,r as aforesaid, and therefore I effect great economy in the operation and use ofthe device. i
My invention will'be 'more fully understood after referencerto the accompanying drawings, in which like parts are indicated by similar reference symbols throughoutthe several views, and in which;- 'g
Figure 1' is la sideelevation of plete` sack ready for use; Y y v Figure 2A shows adsection alongV the'linc 2 2 4of Figure l, and looking in the direcf tion of thev arrows, parts being shown on a larger scale than in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a front elevation ofthe complete sack showing the iiap lifted, and parts in the position for dumpingfrom the middle of the sack; and v Figure .4 is a sectional view on a larger scale showing the mode of' attaching the two parts of the sack together. i
A represents the upper member of the sack which, being normally held out of the ground, is not apt to become worn except after long usage, and may be made of lighter and cheaper material. Theupper part of this sack may be folded or reinforced, as at a and a" and the band B is attached to the same so as to slip over the neck of the user.
The sack is cut away in front, as at a2 so as to permit the convenient dropping of thev y f cotton therein.
The lower end of the member A is provided with a flap A', which is preferably formed integral with the member A, the materal being folded @Yeti eS at es, to' forni over and seWed-as at a, .Y y Attached tothe reinforcedportion a4 of the sack are the tabs cf'supportingthefasi teningV members C, Vwhich engage the ,corre-y a reinforce a, andthe-three thicknesses are sewed together, as at a5, (see Figure 4'); the lower edge of theflaprl beingpfolded sponding fastening-'members D, securedffby tabsd to thenpper edge of the Vlower sack E7, which is preferably reinforced by foie- Y ing in, as at e, see Fg-4, Y t
Thefastening members Candi) are preferably arranged so thatftheycanbe quickly and conveniently connected together, and
are so located :andspaced that the 4loose foot ton Will "not, fall through. the spaces V'between thefastening` lmembers.^ fr
I have vshown a'well rknowny spring hook arrangement for this purpose, but-I do not Vmean, to limtthe invention v*conny particular fastening means, ras various forms .of fasteningme'ansfmay be adopted 'which VWill-prove satisfactory in practice.
f member maybe supplied and the;
V.'I-l'ie'lower member'E Aof the sack'ispreferably made of heavier and strongerma- .terial than the upperA member A, as this is dragged along the ground and is apt to be worn or cut by stones, stubble, or the like.
`lower'imember may bev used fora long ltime before it becomes too `Worn forfurther use. l/Vhen this member becomes so' badly Worn as to be unfit for further` use a "new oldyrone sorapped,for sold asl junk. p f
VIt will be noted'that the ,upper member A cept Vat `long intervals,
and thev partscarriedthereby is not liable to be worn out and will not need'replacing ei;-
VAS the @geen picker gradually eus nl@ bag with cotton inthe operation of picking `the same', thiscotton' ivads up'in 'the bag and it troublesome operation to empty the bag fromthe mouth Onlygbut by the herein described arrangement it will be. suilicient toimhook some of the fasteners, asshovvu for instance inf-Figure 3,` and dump the con# tents of the bag from the middle of the bag, p thus` greatly faeilitatingand expediting'the' removal ofthe picked cotton Vfrom thev ban'. Y
, L Y t! It Will vbe obvious that variousmodifications`miglrtibe`y made fin the hereindescribed apparatus,'and inthe construction, combina- 'ti'ori` and arrangement 'of parts lwhich could beused Without departing from the spirit of =m^ invention' andi do not mean to limit the inventionV tosuch details except las:r particularly-pointed Iout in the claim.
Having thus described my invention' what I claim and desire tosecureby'Letters lat-V Vent ofthe United `Statesl is V- A; cotton {picke'rs sackfeomprising two separatemembers, the upper member being in the Aform of a tube of light textile fabric yopen at both ends,:and provided With a neck band` for Y the y operator, at the upper end thereof' andanannularsiap at the lower end "thereof,"and the lowerfmemb'er being in the 'form of a bagiofheavytextile fabric Yopen Vatrvthetop andv 'closed at the bottom,` with V'75 hooks and eyes foridetachably connecting the lower member to the upper,"and also for permitting A,the Ylat'eral 4adjustment ofl the 7 lower Vmember relative to the upper, and said ap vnormally closing` the gap betweensaid members, "substantially as described. r a
