SUSPENSION HOOK FASTENING. N'o'.177,93`6. Patented'May 30,1876.

' Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 177,936, dated May 30, `1876 application-filed v February 29, 1876.
To all whom t 'may concern:
Beit known that I, WiLLIAM H. HAINEs, of the 'city of Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful improvementsl in fastening to the wooden drying-frames suspensionhooks for suspending japanned cloth and other goods which require to besuspen ded in dryingrooms, which improvements are fully set forth in "the following specification, reference bein had tothe accompanying drawings.
The object of my invention is to avoid the accidents and damage resulting from.. the weakness and inefficiency of the Inode hitherto used of attaching the hooks to the Wooden frames in the drying-rooms of japanned-cloth factories, which common method 'I will describe as follows: ff
The hooks ordinarily used are similar in form and size to those I now propose to use,
but the upper end ot' the shank is longer and thus attached to become loose, and sometimes y they give away and let the goods fall in a crumpled heap to the door, where, it' not discovered quickly, they are 'liable to spontaneous combustion, &c`.
My improved modes of fastening the susvpension-hooks4 to the wooden drying-frames areby means of metallic bands of any convenient length or size, substantially as follows: I take bands of iron or other suitable metal about one inch wide and one-sixteenth inch thick, or thereabout, and four or ve feet long. By means of suitable tools I` Y form a series of transverse groovesg g, Figs.
1, 2, and 3, at intervals of aboutfour inches apart, and large enough to containthe shanks of the hooks.
In Fig. l, the shanks s s are soldered fast Vnot soldered inthe grooves, but aboutonefourth of an inch ot' the upper ends of the shanks are bent at a rightangle to the shank, and at right angles to the hooks, (see Figs. 2 and 5,) in such manner that when the hooks are fixed in the transverse grooves of -themetallic bands, the short bent ends at the top of the shanks project through small holes punched or drilled near the upper side i of the iron bands in the transversel grooves,
so that when the bandsV are fastened by the i wood-screws s s, or their equivalents, v(common to Figs. l, 2, and 3,) to the wooden drying-frames the Shanks yof the hooks are securelyheld from lateral motion by the grooves,
and from vertical and twisting motion by the` short hook-like bent ends passing through the holesi in the grooves of the band near the upper side of the grooves.
Both these improved modes of fastening -the hooks require them to be set with the hooks pointing alternately inV opposite directions for the convenience of the workmen,
and those hooks shown at Fig. 2 require the Vshort bent ends at the top of the shanks to be bent alternately in opposite directions, forming rights and let'ts.
I prefer the latter mode of fastening the hooks, (shown at Fig. 2,) as being more readily replaced when broken or damaged.
It' it is considered desirable, each hook can be attached to a short piece of band-iron either by thesoldering or by the bent-shank method above described, and fastened to the wooden drying-frames by two screws to each hook,as shown at Fig. 3. This Inode gives great facility for replacing damaged hooks, and the further advantage ot' superior strength.
When I fasten the hooks to the metallic bands by soldering, it is not absolutely necessary to indent the transverse grooves into the bands, as the hooks may be soldered onto dat bands having no transverse grooves; Vbut I prefer the grooves as being stronger.
Fig. 4 shows a hook with astraight shank,
fas used for the soldering mode. m iva: represent part of'the wooden drying-frames, and
m m m are the metal strapsmholding the hooks attached to them.
What I claim as new,and desire `to secure by Letters Patent, is Y i The metallic bauds m, of any convenient length and size, having theindented transverse grooves g, in which the'suspension-hooks l A Sare soldered or otherwise firmly held, the K band and hooks thus secured together being adapted for attachment `by-screws or their equivalents to' the Wooden drying-frames of japanned-cloth factories, and other like uses, all substantially as herein shown andmdescribed, for the purpose set forth.
