FRED E. BURLINGAME, OF PAXVT UCKET/RHODE ISLAND, ASSIGNOR- T ATTLE BORO BRAIDING 00., OF SOUTH ATTLEBORO', MASSACHUSETTS, A CORPORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS.
LACING TIP.
Application filed May 29,
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, FRED E. BURLINGAME, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pawtucket, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented cer tain new and useful Improvements in Laoing Tips, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved construction of lacing tip, and has for its object to provide a lacing having a tip with a stiffening metal core, the material of the lacing being wrapped around the core and firmly held in wrapped position by cement.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a stiffening core of metal or other suitable material of such a diameter that when the stock of the lacing is wrapped around the core its edges will abut.
My invention further consists in the provision of a stiffening core which may be made of a length of soft wire and the like, the surface of this core being roughened so as to cause the material of the lacing to cling to the core when folded about it 00 PrQVellt the fabric from becoming released from the core and preventing the core from working out through the end of the tip.
With these and other objects in view, the
invention consists of certain novel features of construction, as will be more fully described, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a lacing with my improved tip formed on the end thereof.
Figure 2 is a length of wire which pro vides a stiffening metal core for the tip, the same being corrugated on its surface.
Figure 3 is a length of wire adapted to form a metal, stiffening core, the same having a roughened surface formed of a multiplicity of spurs or projections raised on the surface thereof.
Figure 4 shows a portion of a lacing with a double length of core laid thereon in position to have the lacing material wrapped about it and cemented to it.
Figure 5 is a view showing the double length of tip in which the material of the tip is wrapped about a metal core which is held therein.
Figure 6 is an enlarged sectional end view on line 6--( of Figure 5, and showing the 1924. Serial N'o. 716,909.
metal core with the fabric of the lacing wrapped about the core, the edges of the fabric abutting.
It is found in practice of advantage to stiffen the tip of a lacing by wrapping the body of the lacing about a metal core, which core is preferably formed of soft wire that may be cut and fed in the desired lengths onto the fabric after the latter has been treated with a cement along the tip portion, and the fabric thus treated maybe folded automatically about themetal core and subsequently severed at its middle to provide tips on the adjacent ends of the lacings. It is also found of advantage to roughen the surface of the core so as to cause the fabric to adhere more closely to the core and to positively prevent the metal from working out at the end of the tip after the tip has been severed; and the following is. a detailed description of one construction of tip by which these advantageous results are ac complished With reference to the drawings, 10 designates a lacing fabric which may be of any suitable length and of any suitable material and of any suitable width.
In forming a tip by my improved method and construction, I first treat that portion 11 of the lacing which is to form the tip, with cement, I then deposit a length of wire 12 upon this treated portion, the length of the wire being preferably twice the length of a single tip, I then fold this treated portion of the lacing about the length of metal. the width of the lacing material being just sufficient to fold about the core and cause its opposite edges 13 and 14: to abut, as shown in Figure 6; I then apply both pressure and heat to this treated and folded portion of the lacing, which latter dries the cement and causes the fabric to adhere firmly to the stiffening core.
In some instances, it is found of advantage to roughen the surface of the core, either in circular corrugations, as shown in Figure 2, or by raising spurs on its surface, as shown in Figure 3, or the core may be treated to be roughened in any other suitable Way, preferably by the surface of the feed rolls as the wire is fed from the reel into position to receive the lacing fabric about it and to be severed into the desired length.
It is found that when the surface is so roughened the fabric clings more closely to the core and also effectually prevents the core from working endwise and protruding beyond the end of the tip after it has been secured therein.
hfy improved stiffened tip is very handsome and attractive in appearance inasmuch as the fabric itself forms the outer surface of the tip and does not have to be colored or otherwise treated to correspond to the color of the body portion of the lacing.
The foregoing description is directed solely towards the construction illustrated, but I desire it. to be understood that I reserve the privilege of resorting to all the mechanical changes to which the device is susceptible, the invention being defined and limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
I claim: 1. A lacing having a tip with a metal core with a roughened surface, the material of the lacing being wrapped about the roughened surface of the core with its edges abutting and bound thereto by cement.
2. A lacing formed of a strip of fabric and having a tip with a metal core formed of a rod with a roughened surface, the material of the lacing being wrapped about the core with its edges abutting and held in position about the core by cement.
3. A lacing formed of a strip of fabric and having a tip with a cylindrical stitt'eir ing core, the strip being wrapped about the core, the diameter of said core rod being ap proximately one third the width of said lacing fabric, whereby the edges of said fabric abut when wrapped about the core said fabric being secured to its core by cement.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
FRED E. BU'RLINGAME.
