"lhe objectof this invention to provide convenient meansfor showing the amount of cloth remaining on abolt, by employing a tape. constituting a measuring strip adapted a B-to be coiled ina particular type ofcasing which in turn is mounted in a novel manner a on the end of the core board, and when a specified number of yards of clothare sold, the same length of tape will be unwound and detached as a part of the sale record, the remainder of the tape showing in yards the quantity left on the bolt. g V A' further object is to provide a plurality of detachable elements constituting a housing for the tape, one element of the housing being'adapted to be rotated with reference to the other in the first stage of the unwind- :ing operation, said elements of the housing carrying respectively a mounting device and a label or tag. holding device.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the rnovel construction and arrangement of elements described, illustrated and claimed, it being'un' '25 derstood that modifications may be made within the scope of the claims without de-f parting from the spirit of the invention. In the drawings p a Figure 1 is a perspective view showlng a bolt of fabric with the measuring device ap-. Y plied to one end of the core board.
Figure 2 is a section thru the housing or V casing of the attachment.
Figure 3 is also a section thru said housber of therotatable device forming one ele- 'ment of the housing.
Figure 4 shows the elements of Figure 3 detached.
Figure 5 is an elevation showing one side or end portion of the housing or casing, and means for securing a tag thereto.
A boltof cloth or other fabric is shown conventionally and is designated 10 and acore board is designated 11, this board receiving a, resilient forked mounting device 12, forming a part of the attachment and secured thereto as by means of a rivet 13, pro- 5o viding pivotal movement at that point and ing in a plane passing thru the axial mem-f 192s. Serial No. 295,824.

The attachment per se includes a main casing member 14 having a flange at the edge portion thereof, asshown in Figures 3 and 4," and the casing further includes a plate mem her-15 on which the mountingdevice-12 is secured. The element 14,.of slightly less diam' eter than plate 15 is rotatable with reference 7 I to the latter, this movementbeing efl'ected' by hand, as when rewindingsurplus tape after detaching, for, measuring purposes, thev length to be cut oil when making a-sale. Ro-
tation also occurs in the first stage of the unwinding operation. g r 1 The plate' l5carries a; central sleeveor hub member 16 having an enlargement of annular form at 17, the device just referred to being retained by flared portion 17 The element 16 is of tubular form as indicated and the complementary element 19, carried by easing member 14 willalso be of tubular form, preferably, and provided with a split portion 19; Element 19 is rotatable,-is secured by flared portion 20, and has an enlargement or flange portion 21 for cooperation with enlarged portion 17 on the member" 7 16, when the tubular concentrically.
portions are positioned The casing elements thus constructed are adapted for cooperation in the manner indicated in Figure 3 of the drawing, providing a suitablehousing'ior coiled tape 22, to be wound'on the element 16.- r v- 1 In order to'mount a tag, label, or the like' 24:, on the outer side of the casing, I provide deflected tongues or ears25, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, and these elements are adapted to engage the edge portion of the tag in opposite relation,said tag providing for any data to be entered thereon, pertaining to the goods carried by the core board. ,A resilient retaining devicefo'r the tape is mounted at 30 along side of the slot 31, and retains the end portionof the tape in convenient posi-= tion, as shown in Figure 2'.
1 Havingvdescribed the'invention what is claimed is :1-
In a device of the class described, aicasing v comprlslng a plate, resllient forked means lion for connecting the gate with a eore hoard, a centrally located ss carried by'the plate and including an annular enlargement; a
v enlargement firt named, the flanged portion of the second named plate being slotted,
