JOSEPH, #MIGHEGAN; THE: COMMERCIAL NATIONAL BANK, EXEGUTOR OF THE ESTATE or SAID EDWAR CRAIG, nECEAsEn, AssIsNoR mo *SA'BANAO: MACHINE .GQMPANY, or BENroN ,EARBOR, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF MICHIGAN,
WIREBOUND BARREL AND METHOD OF .MANUFACTURE THEREOF Application filed February 7, 1927. Serial No. 166,434.
This inventon relates to the manufacture of wire bound barrels, and more particularly to the manufacture of barrels of this kind having both bilge and end hoops.
Generally stated, One object of the invention is to provide a strong and serviceable construction of wire-bound barrel, in which the encircling binding wires are applied in a manner to give the barrel strength and serviceability, and in which the construction is such that barrels of this kind may be manufactured at a comparatively low cost of production.
Another object is to provide a method of construction of wire-bound barrels of this kind, and a process or method of assembly thereof, of such a character that the manufacture of the barrels will be facilitated, and in a manner to permit quantity production thereof at a reasonable cost and in a manner to insure barrels which will be satisfactory to the users.
To these and other useful ends, the invention consists in the matters hereinafter set.
forth and claimed, and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which,
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a wire-bound barrel embodying the principles of the invention, showing a portion thereof in section.
Fig. 2 is a cross section on line 22 in Fi 1.
li ig. 3 is an enlarged, detail, sectional view illustrating the method of driving the staples to secure two hoops and a wire in position at the bottom end of the barrel.
As thus illustrated, the barrel comprises staves 1 of any suitable character, such as wood, and bent into the desired shape, as shown. The barrel may have a wood hoop 2 for the top end thereof, and preferably has the two bilge hoops 3 and 4, the hoop 3 being i of wood or sheet or strap metal, and the hoop 4 being of wire. The outside, bottom hoop 5 may be of wood or metal, and is preferably reinforced with an outer hoop, 6 of wire,"'as
shown. The inside, bottom hoop 7 forms the inner rim of the bottom end of the barrel, and is inserted as shown to hold the bottom 8 of the barrel in place. Staples 9 are driven crosswise of the wire 6, with one leg 10 of the staple penetrating through the hoop 5 and-through thestaves 1 into the bottom 8,
hoop in place. The two wires are preferablyattached at their starting ends by staples 14, as shown, and the other ends of these wires are then brought around and-caused to overlap the starting ends, the overlap then being straddled by the staples 9 and 13, asshown.
Obviously, in order to-obtain the constructionshown and described, and especially the stapling of the overlap ends of the wires in place, the-process or method comprises the assembly of separately formed staves in barre'l -form,with the'edges of the staves held tightly tog-ether throughout the length of each stave,"andthereafter stapling a plu-v rality of outside bilge hoops and an outside bottom hoop in p'lace, upon the said staves, thereby forminga bilge barrel; and, of course,- it"is alsoa part ofthe process or method that theifastening of the bottom head S in place is accomplished simultaneously with the fastening of the bottom :hoop in place; and, furthermore, before the various staplescan be driven, the rstavesgmust be held in place by placing the hoops '2 5 in'position as shown, and thereafter the stapling operations are performed. as shown and described. i c
Any suitable means" can be employed, of course, for setting up the .staves and flat end hoops. dach-inery or-instrumentalities of any known or suitable character can be employed for this purpose, and thereafter the stapling operations can befperformed by machinery ofth'e kind shown-and described in'co-p'end ing app'licationof Edward-Craig, Serial No.
latter .this'a lication may b regarded a division.
2. A structure asfspecified in claim 1, in V combination with an inside bottom hoop held in place against the outside of the bottom by the clinched legs of the staples. I
3. A structure as specified in claim 1, com prising a wire hoop superposed upon said out: sidebottom hoopandheld in place by said staple heads. 7 I
. 4:." A structure as specified in claim 1, the said clinched portions of the staples being e"- posed on the barrel surface between said head and the end edges of the staves,
of separately formed staves tightly engaging at their side edges throughout the length of each stave, a plurality of bilge hoops and a bottom hoop, at least one bilge hoop comprising an encircling wire with overlapping end portions disposed side by side against the barrel, forming astraight overlap, and staples securing sald hoops and overlap 111' place, forming a bilge barrel, some of said staples straddling only one end portion of said wire, and some of said staples straddling both end portions of the wire, holding the two end portions tight together, whereby one end. portion may be attached first and the other afterward to provide an anchor for one end while the Wire is being wound around the barrel, the staples for the bottom hoop having the barrel, forming a straight overlap, and staples securing said hoops in place, forming a bilge barrel, the staples for the bottom hoop having one leg of each staple clinched, and an inside bottom hoop held in place by said clinched portions of the staples, together with a bottom head held in place by said inside bottom hoop and the unclinched other legs of said staples.
Specification signed this 31st day of J an.,
EDWARD CRAIG.
5 In barrel construction, the combination I l I one leg of each staple clinched, and an inside bottom hoop held in place by said clinched portions of the staples, together with a bottom head held in place by said inside bottom hoop, and the unclinched other legs of said staple.
6. In barrel construction, the combination of staves, a bottom head, an outside bottom hoop and staples extending through the hoop and staves, one'leg of each staple extending into the bottom head, and the other leg of each staple being clinched adjacent one side of sald head, in combination with an inside bottom hoop held in place against the outside of the bottom by the clinched legs of the staples.
7 In barrel construction, the combination ofjseparately' formed staves tightly engagingat their side edges throughout the length of each stave, a'plurality'of bilge hoops and a-bottom hoop, at least one bilge hoop comprising an encircling wire with overlapping end portions disposed side by side against
