WIRE FABRI C Filed Aug. 8, 1929 Eduard] INVENTOR IY Q t" t I a Patented Sept. 2,- 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE EDWARD I. Pm, OI CAMBRIDGE, MARYLAND I WIRE FABRIC Application filed August 8, 1929. Serial No. 384,333.
This invention relates to improvements in wire fabrics, such as is used for conveyor belts, aprons, screens, and the like, the general object of the invention being to provide a chain at each edge of the fabric-which forms a reinforced selvage edge for the fabric which protects the edges and also increases the tensile strength of the fabric.
' This invention also consists in certain other'feature's of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several arts, to be hereinafter fully described, il- "lilstrated in-the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying draw:
ing wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several g views, and in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of a length of fabric constructed in accordance with this invention; and
Fig. 2 is a perspective detail view, showing how the ends of a pair of the wires formirlilg the fabric are connected to a link of the c a In these views, the letter A indicates the wire fabric and the letter B indicates a chain so connected with each longitudinal edge of the fabric. Each chain is composed of a plurality of 1, each link being formed of a strip of metalloo dupon'itself to form an eye 2 at one end t ereof, with the limbs 3 having as registering openings 4 therein which receive the eye part of the next .link.
In carrying out my invention, the ends 6 of a pair of wires 7 of .the fabric are passed intotbeopenings 4 of a link, with one wire pa ng over a top portion of the link and the other under a bottom portion of the link and then the wires are twisted together, as shown at- 8, with the twisted portion in the space formed by the openings 4 and with the ex- I tremity' of the twisted portion extending between those portions of the link which form the outer wall of the opening 4, as shown at 9. Thus the wires of the fabric are connected. with the links of the bhains without being soldered, brazed or similarly connected with the links.
- This invention not only provides a fabric formed with reinforced selvage edges, but the manner of connecting the ends of the Wires with the links prevents the fabric becoming unraveled, and the connection ofthe wires with the links will not interfere with the flexibility of either thefabric or the chains.
By twisting the ends of the fabric instead of brazing, soldering, or the like, a means of connection is afforded without the necessity of applying heat, which on certain metals destroys the texture and finish and an easy means is-afi'orded to readily disconnect or remove the chain when desired for repair or replacement.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be'understoocl that changes may be made in the construction and. in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is 1. A wire fabric having a chain connected with an edge thereof, the chain consisting of flatlinks having an eye forming portion at one end thereof, with an opening in its flatportion for receiving the eye portion of another link, each pair of wires of the fabric passing into an opening in a link, with the ends of'the wires twisted together within the opening, one wire passing under a portion of the link and the other over a portion of the link.
2. A wire fabric having a chain connected with an edge thereof, the chain consisting of flat links havin an eye forming portion at a one end thereo with an opening in its flat 90 portion for receiving the eye portion of another-link, each pair of wires of the fabric passing into an opening in a link, with the ends of the wires twisted together with- 5 in the opening, one wire passing under a. portion of the link and. the other over a pore r tion of the link and the extremities of the twisted portions of the wires extending be: tween those portions of the link which form 10 the outerwall of the opening.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
EDW. F. PINK.
