Description

OURRAN BATTLE, OF WARRENTON, GEORGIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN BALE-TIES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 203,401, dated May '7, 1878 application filed October 29, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OURRAN BATTLE, of Warrenton, in the county of Warren and State of Georgia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bale-Tie Fastenings; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention relates to the construction of abuckle or fastening for a bale-band, whereby it is adapted to slide or be adjusted on one end of the band, and to bite and clamp the same at any point or place, and also to form a detachable connection with the free slotted end of the band.
The buckle is flat and T-shaped. Its broad end is provided with a slot, to adapt it to receive and bite one end of the bale-band, having sharp or angular edges, and the other end is bent upward, and has lugs or projections slot, a, through which one end, I), of the baleband Bis inserted. The edges of the slot are angular, to enable it to bite the band or hold by friction, so as to prevent the buckle slipping on the band when the latter is tightened around the bale.
The end b of the band lies in contact with the side of the bale, and between it and the under side of the buckle, as shown, instead of being turned back or doubled upon itself, as usual in other ties of this class.
The shank c of the buckle is bent upward, and lugs 11 d are formed thereon, as shown. Said lugs project in opposite directions, and
are aligned with and parallel to the shank c. The slot at is narrow, having, however, sufiicient width to allow the band B to be drawn easily through it when the buckle is held in a position at right angles, or nearly so, to the band.
To apply the buckle to a band, the latter is first drawn around the compressed bale in the usual way, and one end thereof inserted through the slot a of the buckle, and the latter slid along on the band until it reaches a certain point or place-to be determined by the size of the bales being compressed. The free end of the band is then drawn taut, and the buckle inserted through the slot at, Fig. 2.
Then, the pressure on the bale being relaxed by lowering or raising the follower of the press, the expansion of the bale will draw the buckle-shank 0 down fiat against the side of the bale, and cause the edges of the slot at to bite the band, as shown in Fig. 2. One end of the band will then be firmly held by friction with the slotted buckle-head, while the lugs d on the shank 0 form a secure lock with the other end.
The advantages of the buckle are its simplicity of construction, cheapness of manufacture, and adaptation for easy adj ustment on the .band, corresponding to the size of the bale.
What I claim is i The improved T-shaped buckle for balebands, having a broad head provided with a slot, at, having angular edges to adapt it to bite and hold the band by friction when the end b of the same is extended beneath the buckles, and the narrow shank c bent upward and provided with the lugs d d, all as shown and described, to operate as specified.
OURRAN BATTLE.
