ALBERT H. CARRIER, OF ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO EDWIN W. GROVE, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
FIBER MATERIAL OR PRODUCT.
Application filed September 9, 1921.
To all whom it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT H. CARRIER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Asheville, in the county of Buncombe and State of North Carolina, have invented new and useful Improvements in Fiber Materials or Products, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a fiber product or material for various uses, and particu-- larly adapted for use as a gun wad in shells and ammunition generally, and wherein it is essential that a certain amount of flexibility with lightness and material compact` ness is necessary.
The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed. i v* In the accompanying drawing Figure l is a perspective view of a piece of material from which the wad is formed;
Figure 2 is a longitudinal vertical section through the material;
Figure 3 is a detail perspective view of a gun wad formed from the material or product. 1 ig,
The improved product or material coml prises a series of natural tough fibers 5 and "o a filling material 6 in which the fibers are embedded. This material filling 6 is preferably of a pithy nature or has a certain amount of flexibility, as well as compressi- Serial No. 499,412.
bility. The filling material of itself has a natural coherence or bonding characteristic. The fiber 5 is distinguished from wire, hair and other common bonding or reinforcing fiber structures now commonly em-l ployed by being a tough growth that may be derived from several sources.
One of the most effective uses of the improved material that may be mentioned and as illustrated by Figure 3, is the formation therefrom of wads for gun shells, as indicated by the numeral 7. This gun wad product is very much superior to the gun wad now in use in its action or service and it is materially cheaper in the cost of manufacture than the material from which the gun wads are now made. The advantage of the material when shaped as a gun wad is that it possesses superior ballistic functions, as well as necessary flexible closure characteristics required in a practical wad for a gun shell.
What is claimed as new is A gun wad of a light compressible character composed of closely cohering pithy body substance and a tough natural fiber oi' a filament nature distributed and imbedded therein in substantially parallel relation and possessing a flexible characteristic.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
ALBERT H. CARRIER.
