J. LYNN.
ADIUSTABLE HOOP. APPLICATION FILED APR. 12, 1922.
I Patented Aug To all whom it may concern JAKE LYNN, OF MACON, GEORGIA.
ADJUSTABLE HOOP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 1, 1922.
Application filed April 12, 1922. Serial No. 551,884.
Be-it known that 1, JAKE LYNN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Macon, in the county of Bibb andState of Georgia, have-invented certain new and useful Inr provements in an Adjustable Hoop; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, andexact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled. in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. i
This invention relates to a hoop for tubs, barrels and like receptacles.
It is particularly aimed'to provide a hoop for use, where, as in the case of a tub to con tain an ice cream or thelike can and a re-v frigerant, frequently wearsorotherwise be comes unfit for use and needs replacing. At
the present time, the constructionof such a tub necessitates removal of. the handles thereof in connection with the removal and replacement of a worn or injured hoop. As a result of" replacing a hoop under such conditions, much time is-lost. It is accordingly an object of the present invention to overcomethe necessity of removing the handles and to provide a construction of hoop which may be applied in an exceedingly short period of time. i
Another object of the invention is to provide a hoop made in separable sections having novel means to connect the same.
Still further it is aimed to provide a hoop in separable sections, one having a stud, and the other having a plurality of openings to receive the stud, in combination with collars to retain the terminals of thehoop sections.
Additional objects and advantages will become apparent from a consideration of the description following taken in connection with accompanying drawings illustrating one practical embodiment.
In said drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of the hoop; and
Fgure 2 is a central horizontal sectional view thereof.
Like reference characters designate like or similar parts inboth views.
In reducing the invention to practice, a plurality of body sections A and B, preferably of a flexible metal, of any suitable size or kind and curved as shown are employed to collectively form an endless band.
The sections A and B overlap at each end and one of the sections is provided with a plurality of holes or openings 1O there throughwhile the other section has one or more-studs 11 extending therefrom, being secured thereto in any appropriate manner and adapted to selectively enter the said openings 10. Slidable on the sections 10 and 11 are sleeves or collars 12 of endless'f'ormation, which are adapted to'overlap the sec tlons adjacent one end or extremity of sec-- tions A and B. Studs 11 and openings 10 enable adjustment of the loop.
Adjacent the other ends of the sections A and B, angular heads 13 are secured in any suitable manner, for instancebeing riveted in place as at 14.] These heads are of any suitable material and preferably of steel, so th'at they will maintain their shape and will not be distorted through use. heads 13 have their outwardly. extending flanges15 provided with apertures through which an adjustable draw bolt 16 is passed, its head 17 engaging one of the flanges 15 while its nut 18 engaging the other flange. If desired the screw threaded shank of the bolt which is designated 19 may have a split resilient washer 20 disposed thereon to serve as a lock for the nut 18, but of course itis obvious that this may :be dispensed with if desired.
In applying the hoop to a tub, barrel or other receptacle, the sleeves 12 may be moved out of engagement with the adjacent ends of the sections A and B whereupon the studs 11 are free to disengage the openings 10 and the sections may be separated from each other at the last mentioned ends and then placed around the tub, barrel or the like. hen the proper adjustment is secured, the studs 11 are passed through the appropriate openings 10 and the collars 12 are slid into overlapping relation with the adjacent free end of said sections A and B. Thereafter, the nut 18 is tightened which will appropriately bind or tension the hoop about the tub or barrel, also clamping the collars 12 thereto so that they will not become displaced and so that the sections cannot separate at the studs 11 and openings 10.
It will be understood that any other type of draw means may be used instead of that which has been shown by way of example and that changes in the details of connec- These tion of theother ends of the sections and changes otherwise made within the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim as my invention 1. A hoop of the class described consisting of sections, one of said sections having an opening, the other section having means to enter said openings, means to prevent disengagement of said means and openings, the last mentioned means being held in position through the tension of the hoop.
2. A hoop of the class described having sections, one of said sections having a plurality of openings therethrough, the other section having a stud to selectively enter said openings, collars surrounding said sections to engage adjacent free ends thereof, and draw means for the sections.
3. A hoop of the class described having separable sections, one of said sections having an opening therethrough, the other section having a stud to enter said opening, collars slidable on said sections to engage the same adjacent free ends thereof, and said collars having portions to directly engage the article about which the hoop is disposed, whereby the tension of the hoop will prevent displacement of the collars.
4. A hoop consisting of sections, one end of one of said sections having openings therein, studs carried by a corresponding end of theother of said sections and adapted to selectively enter said opening, means encircling said ends to prevent disengagement of said studsand openings, and independent means forconnecting the other ends of said sections.
5'. A hoop consisting of sections, means tov connect corresponding ends of said sections, said means consisting of studs carried by one of said ends and openings in the other of said sections adapted to be entered by said studs, and draw means for the sections.
6. A hoop consisting of sections, said sections having overlapping ends, studs carried by one of said overlapping ends and adapted to enter openings in the other of said overlapping ends, means encircling said over- I lapping ends and preventing the disengagement of the studs and openings, and draw means for said sections. 7
7. A hoop consisting of sections, said sec tions having overlapping ends, studs carried by one of said overlapping ends and adapted to enter openings in the other of said over lapping ends, means encircling said'overlapping ends and serving to prevent the dis: engagement of sa1d studs and openlngs, and
tension means for said sections, said tension means serving to prevent the displacement of the encircling means.
8. A hoop consisting of sections having operlappmg ends, studs carried by one of said overlapping'ends and adapted toenter openings in the other of said overlapping ends, means encircling said overlapping ends and serving to prevent the displacement of said studs from said openings, and threaded tensioning means for said sections, said tensioning means serving to prevent the displacement of said encircling means.
9. A hoop consisting of sections having overlapping ends, studs carried by one of said overlapping ends and adapted to enter openings in the other of said overlapping,
ends, means encircling said sections and slidable thereon and adapted to prevent the disengagement of said studs from said openings, and draw means for said sections,said
draw means serving to prevent displacement.-
