J. FRANKLIN PEGK, OF SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN LIFE-PRESERVERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 165,610, dated July 13, 1875; applicalin filed December 16, 1874.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, J. FRANKLIN PECK, of the city of Springfield, county of Hampden and State of Massachusetts, have discovered a new and useful Improvement in Filling for Life-Preservers, Life-Mattresses, and other Life-Saving Apparatus, of which the following is a specification The nature of my discovery consistsin a packing or lling for lite-preservers, composed of hair from deer, ellis, antelopes, mountain sheep, or mountain goa-ts, as will be hereinafter more fully set f'orth.
In the annexed drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure l represents a lifepreserver stulfed with my filling. Fig. 2 represents a pillow, showing how the same may be made into a life-preserver; and Fig. 3 shows the same applied aa such.
A represents a life-preserver, of lany suitable size and shape, formed of an outside covering filled with hair from either or more of the following animals, namely, deer, elk, antelope, mountain sheep, or mountain goat.
The hair of these animals is Very light and buoyant, possessing a wonderful buoyant power, which, by actual experiment, is found to be not less than double that of the best cork. Hence it is admirably adapted for the purpose of filling life-preservers.
It may be put up in the shape of pillows and used as such, and provided with suitable straps, so as to be adapted for use as life-preservers, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A illing for life-preservers, composed of the hair from deer, elk, antelopes, mountain sheep, or mountain goats, substantially as herein set forth. v
J. FRANKLIN PEGK.
