l L. T. SEITE. LEATHER COVERED NUTS. rl\I `.`186,375. Patented Jan. 176.1877.
NJERS, PHOI-L|THOGRAPHER WASHINGTON, U, C.
UNITED STATESy PATENT OFFICEc I `LYMAN T. SMITH, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT I LEATHER-COVERED NUTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l86,375, dated January 16, 1877; application tiled August 4, 1876.
To all whom it may concern specification The leather cover ofcarriage-top nuts is 'sewed over the head of the nut, and-is liable,
when Wet, to rub off.
My improvement is designed to prevent this by combining, with the maand the learner cover, a binder or fastening which serves as a stitfener to the back of the sewed cover,
and lies upon the flat side ofthe head and upon the shank or screw end of the nut, so as to make, in effect, a metallic eye to the open back of the cover, said metallic eye being fastened by lips to the cover-back before the two pieces are sewed together.
The fastening may be placed between the cover and the head of the nut, or upon theI outside of the cover, andclamped, in either case, by lips over the edges of the opening.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a section of a covered nut now in use; Fig. 2, a section, back, and perspective 'views of a covered nut embracing my invention, the back piece of the cover being also shown detached, in perspective and section, with the stiliener bound in the opening, Fig. 3, similar views, showing the stiffener fastened with the holding-points turned out; and Figs. 4,5, 6, and 7 are modifications of the cover-fastening. i
The headed nuts for carriage-tops are covered with leather by sewing two pieces to.- gether, the inner or` back piece, Fig. 2,'being cut out to iitover the nut end, and the cove` is onlyheld on by its tting over the nut-head and upon the screw` end, and which does not give a secure or effective hold.
By my improvement the cover is held permanently upon the nut by means of a binder! fastening, c, which forms the eye in the back of the cover c, and lies round the nut end b, and against the inner side of the' head d, in such manner as to make the back c sti and secure to the head. The plate a has the opening cut with scallop-points z', which may be folded over and bound to the cover-edges ofthe opening, either inward, as in Fig. 2, or outward, as in Fig. 3, so that the back of the cover is made stift and cannot Work ol'. The nut-,end is square or angular-sided, by which it is screwed in place upon the top-jointings by means of a'wrench. The Vnut end b has a screw-threaded socket to screw upon the topjointing against a shoulder.
In making the cover the back piece has the stiffener secured within its central opening before it is stitched to the cap portion, so that when the stitching is finished the back of the cover is tight and stiff upon the nut. Y
The plate-stiffener is a thin plate, easily and quickly applied, and with little expense.
The modifications show the opening in the leather back provided with scalloppoints, instead of the scalloped plate.
The binder maybe of any suitable material. A thin plate, however, gives the required stili'- ness, and forms the metallic eye applied to the inner side and the screw end of the nuthead.
VI claimi The binder a, secured to the back of the cover, as described, in combination with the cover and the headed nut b d of a carriage-topsetting frame, substantially as and forI the purpose herein set forth.
In testimony whereof I have affixed myA signature inthe presence of Vtwo Witnesses.
LYMAN T. SMITH.
