of New York, and GORDON MCKAY, of Caml bridge, Middlesex con'n ty'',Massachusetts,` have invented an Improved Shoe-Nail Blank; and
we do hereby declare that thefollowing, taken in connection with the drawings which accompany and form part of this specification, is a.
description of our invention suicient to enable those skilled in the art to practice it.
Our invention relates to the formation'of a metal nail-plate blank, for use in machines' for nailing soles to uppers of boots and shoes. Such blank we make from a plain ilat strip of metal having a width eqnalto the maximum length of nails to be formed from it, and this plate, beveled npon one edge,.we form with di?" l visions, spaced in accordance with .the width each nail is to have, making such divisions preferably by two blunt-edged chisels or grip-y ers acting against opposite surfaces ot' the plate.A The action of these gripers. is made to almost separate each nail, leaving. adja'cet nails united by a slight web, and sothat each nail maybe very easily separated from the l rest of the blank. The gripers are preferably formed .with teeth or'serrations, that bring up or form slight projeetions'upon the surfaces of the nails.
' The linvention consists'in a nail-blank thus formed from a plate, ora metal plate having nail-blanks joined by thin webs of the metal.
The drawing represents ablank embodying our invention.
Figure 1 shows the' samein face view. Fig.
2 is a view of one edge; Fig. 3, a view of the opposite edge. Fig. f4 is au endr viewy of it. Thesefour figures .show the plate enlarged. Fig. 5 shows a portion of the plate of regular size.
au denote the nails,` joined by the web portions b. c denotes apart of' the'plate not treated to form the nail-blank. The nails, in cross-section, are ot' the' form seen at4 Figa-2, and, theedge of the plate being beveled, the vpoint'of each nail vcut therefrom will be beveled, and is also preferably attened, as seen in the drawing. t
The lnail-blank thus made may be formed into a ribbon of indefinite length, to lbe used for the'continuous supply of nails to a ma chine'for uniting shoe-soles to shoe-uppers.l
A metal nail-plate having one edge beveled, and having a series of nail-blanks joined by the lateral or transverse connecting-webs, substantially as shown and described.V
