I IMPROVEMENT lN BALE-TIES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 155,981, dated October 13, 1874; application filed October 2, 1874.
CASE A.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. SCOTT, of Savannah, in the county of Ohatham and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bail Tie or Packing- Band, of which the following is a specification:
My invention relates to a new and improved bale-tie or lock to be attached or secured to the ordinary packing or binding band in common use for baling cotton, hay, and other similar materials; and it consists, first, in doubling or folding a strip or sheet of bandiron or metal of convenient size, in such a manner that its ends or shank may be made to embrace or clasp one end of the packing-band, which is to be interposed and secured between said ends by means of rivets or otherwise, and in cutting or notching the strip thus folded, and lapping it to the right or left, and in such shape as to form a hook or catch, which, when connected with the other end of the tie, which is folded or turned in the usual manner, forms a complete self-fastening band or tie not dependent upon the expansion of the bale to keep it fast in place; second, in providing the said strip as doubled, notched, and lapped, with a bossed or high-headed rivet or screw, which will serve as a stop, and prevent the tie from becoming unlocked, accidentally, by jars consequent upon moving the bales about, as will be fully hereinafter set forth.
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a bale of cotton, with my improved tie applied. Fig. 2 represents a perspective view of the lock and band, the former of which is riveted to the under side of one end of the band. Fig. 3 represents the lock, composed of a double strip of metal, between which one end of the band is inserted; and Fig. 4 is a similar view of the same looking from the opposite side. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the blank, from which the lock is constructed.-
A represents the strip or band, which is doubled or folded, as shown in Fig. 5, in such manner that its two ends will fall together. The strip or band thus folded is then made of proper shape by cutting therefrom the space a c d, thus forming the projection A. The
part with the projection A is then folded over the part at e h g, as in Figs. 3 and and 4, leaving sufficient space to admit the folded end 0 of the tie, thus forming the hook, catch, or look, and giving a clear space on which to set the high head of the rivet used in fastening the hook or look to the band or tie. ,The ends of the hook or look thus formed are drilled, punched, or otherwise provided with apertures for the insertion of rivets, by which means the same is to be secured to the band which passes around the bale. In attaching it to said packing-band, one end of the same is drilled, punched, or otherwise provided with apertures corresponding with those in the tie. The end of the band thus prepared is then interposed between the ends of the lock or tie, and the two are firmly united by means of bolts, screws, or rivets. The rivet or bolt is passed through the center of the end of the band, and also through the center of the ends of the look a little below a line drawn across the hook from the top of its projection A, and is provided with a high head or boss, 13, which will hold the hook 0, formed on the end of the packing-band, in place, and prevent any backward movement of the same after the parts are interlocked. The hook O is secured and locked into the tie by passing said hook over the catch or hook at an angle to the dotted lines shown in Fig. 3, so that its folded end will pass between said hook and the head or boss B just behind it. It will then fall in place, and will be held in position by the boss B and the projection A, and by its passing between the upper and lower planes of the hook or look. The head or boss B,as will be readily perceived, will prevent any backward movement of the hook 0 after it is once in place, and effectually prevents the parts from becoming accidentally unlocked, as the hook G can only be unfastened by turning the same to one side, so as to clear the end of the notch, and then slipping it to one side. This movement cannot possibly take place accidentally, and therefore the tie will always be secure.
The tie, as thus constructed, possesses the advantage of greatstrength and durability, and cheapness of construction. The strain upon the same and upon the packing-band being in a straight line, there is no chance for the tie to be wrenched from the band by twistin g, turning, or jarring, and the rivets being held at each end by the folded ends of the tie or look, they cannot possibly pull out under any strain.
The hook or catch being formed of doubled iron, should there be a flaw in either part of it, the other will be sufficiently strong; but
this hook, or catch, or look may be made of single-band iron, or of cast or malleable iron, substantially of the shape and form described.
When thus made, the end of the band or tieband. and are secured thereto by means of a high-headed rivet, or otherwise, substantially as described.
2. In a cotton-bale or other tie, the strip or band of single or doubled iron, out or notched, and lapped to form a hook or catch, shaped so as to permit the loose or folded end of the tie to pass over the hook part and rest between it and the back part.
' 3. In combination With the packing-band and hook or look, the rivet, screw, or bolt, With a high or bossed head placed opposite the projection of the hook for controling the movement of the folded end of the packingband, and preventing the same from becoming unlocked, as herein described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand.
GEO. W. SCOTT.
