SEAL.
Application filed December 13, 1928.
This invention aims to provide a simple seal for cars, so constructed that the ends of a. flexible element may be retained securely.
It is within the province of the disclosure to improve generally and to enhance the utility of devices of that type to which the invention appertains.
\Vith the above and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of part-s and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that, within the scope of what is claimed, changes in the precise embodiment of the invention shown can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings:-
Figure 1 shows in elevation, a device constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figures 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8 are sections taken, respectively, on the lines 2-2, 4-4, 6 6, 7 -7, and 8-8 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an elevation wherein the device is viewed at right angles to the showing of Figure 1;
Figure 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Figure 2.
The device shown in the drawings comprises a body 1, preferably made of metal. The body 1 is provided with a slot 2 which extends part way through the body from` side to side, and part way through the body from end to end, as shown in Figure 5. The slot 2 forms a wing 8 and a back plate 4 in the body. The wing 3 has a notch 5 in its edge. The back plate 4 has an opening 6 located opposite to the inner end of the notch 5. Both the not-ch 5 and the opening 6 communicatewith the slot 2. There is a transverse shoulder 7 in the back plate 4. As shown at 8 in Figure 5, the shoulder 7 does not extencl to the outer edge of the back plate 4. The shoulder 7 is located between the inner end of the notch 5 and the opening 6,

element is secured in the end of the body 1. Y
The other eXtrernity of the flexible element 14 is free, until it is Connected with the body 1 in a way now to be described.
The free end of the flexible element 14 is pushed downwardly through the passage 11 and is formed into a good sized loop 16, shown in Figure 5, the flange 12 constituting a lateral support for the loop. The free end of the part of the wire 14 that forms the loopA is thrust through the inner end of the notch 5 in the wing 3 and through the opening 6 in the back plate 4. The loop 16 then is swung around into parallelism with the flange 12, and against the flange. This operation carries the upper part of the loop 16 in through the notch 5 in the wing` 3. The wire 14 now is arranged as shown in Figure 5 of the drawings, thefree extremity of the wire being bent down, as at 17, on the outside of the back plate 4 and the outside of the flange 12. If the operator now pulls down on the body 1, the loop 16 decreases in size, the wire 14 running back through the passage 11 until the loop 16 is reduced to a straight length 18, shown in Figure' 5. The inclined wall 10 of the slot 2 (Figure 6) carries this part 18 of the wire tothe left, in Figure 6, until it is above the shoulder 7 which slants, as indicated atV 9. After the wire 14 is in place, as shown in solid line in Figures 5, 6, and 7, it will be practically impossible to separate the wire from the body 1 without breaking off the free end of the wire or damaging the wire otherwise to such an extent as to indicate that the sea-l. has been tampered with.
VVhat is claimed is 1. A device of the class described, comprising a body with a slot which extends part way through the body from side to side and part way through the body from end to end to form a wing and a back plate in the body, the wing having a notch in its edge, and the back plate having an opening located opposite to the notch, both the notch and the opening communicating with the slot, there being a shoulder in the back plate between the opening and the notch, the body having an end passage which communicates With the slot, and a flexble element assemstruoted as set forth in claim 1, and further bled With the body and of such diameter characterized by the fact that the shouldcr that it can be extended through theJ passage, and the adjacent end Wall of the slot slant 10 the slot, the notch7 and the opening, a part in opposite directions.
