This invention relates to cords, strands or similar material which may be used for tying packages as well as a strand for weaving, braiding or otherwise forming articles oi' manufacture; and the object of the invention is to provide a strand of the class described having a core in the form of a string of cotton or'similar material or which may be composed of other brous material, preferably capable of being readily saturated, and ermore of holding a saturant, and to arrang on the core one or more strips of cellulose material, such for example as cellophane which is in the form of a relatively thin strip or ribbon which may be laid along the core and folded and twisted or which may be spirally wound thereon; a further object being to provide narrower strips of other ornamental material, preferably of a color contrasting to the color of the cellulose strip to enhance the appearance of the resulting product and further to aid in supporting the cellulose covering thereon; a further object being to provide a cord or strand of the class described composed of two or more cellulose coverings of contrasting colors, in conjunction with which may be employed narrower strands of contrasting material; a still further object being to provide a cord having a core or inner body consisting of a cord around which is arranged a covering of paper, tissue or other material upon which the cellulose strip or strips are applied; and with these and other objects in view, the invention consists in an article of manufacture of the class described which is produced in accordance with the method more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention is fully disclosed in the follow- -ing specification, of which the accompanying drawing forms a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by suitable reference characters in each of the views, and in whichf t Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic view illustrating the steps and the method of producing one form of strand according to my invention.

taining a suitable saturant I3, such for example,
as glycerine, or in some cases, a combination of glycerine and water. It will be understood that other saturants may be employed.
Before passing into the tank I2, the cord II passes through a tension device I4 which serves to I keep the cord taut at all times as it is fed through the apparatus. After being submerged I n the saturant I3, the saturated cord passes through a suitable wiper I5 for removing excess saturant. This wiper may be controlled so as to regulate the amount of saturant maintained in the cord II.
At I 6, I have shown a supply spool of a strip I1 of cellulose material, such for example as cellophane. The-strlp I'I may be of any desired color and mounted upon a white or light colored cord II, or if desired, the cord may be of a color substantially similar to that of the color of the strip I 1.
A's the strip I 'I passes onto the cord I I, the same is folded by a suitable tool I8 into a substantially channel form as indicated at I'Ia in Fig. 2 of the drawing. As the cord I I with the strip I1 thereon passes through the apparatus, one or more narrow strips or strands I9, I 9a, two of such strands being vshown in the accompanying drawing, are spirally wrapped around the U or channel strip I 1a, the result of which will curl or fold the strip around the strand II in the manner indicated at Ilb in Fig. 3 of the drawing so as tc completely envelop the core I I and to form a substantially round resulting strand.
I next pass the strand thus formed around a number of rollers 20 which are preferably mounted in a revolving frame so as to apply a slight twist in the resulting strand to more rmly retain and secure the strip I'I to the core string II, it being understood that theA saturant will have had time to loosen or soften the strip Il; and as the strip I1 dries externally to some degree, the same will become set upon the core cord I I, which is mounted upon a receiving spool 2|, preferably shiftable upon a shaft 22 to facilitate winding with respect to the fixed guide roller 23. A shifting arm is represented at 24 in Fig. l of the drawstrand which is also herein referred to as a cordl may be wound upon a large spool or drum'and then rewound or wrapped for retail or other sale, or if desired, may be directlyvwound upon spools for such sale, depending entirely upon the methods of production desired.
In the above described method of producing the resulting strand which will be designated by the numeral 25, the narrow binding strips or strings I8, I9a may be composed of contrasting material both as to texture and color to produce an ornamental effect in the finished product, and if desired, what is commonly referred to as tinsel -may be employed as this binder. But, in other uses, a narrow cellulose strip may be employed,
' or in fact, a thread or cord may be used.
One of the outstanding diiiiculties of the old or known methods of producing strands of the general class under consideration was the objection to the stiffness of the cellulose material or cellophane which rendered it difficult, if not impossible, to make a neat package in using the same as a tie string or cord, or in fact, in using the strand for any other purpose. However, I have found that by employing a saturated core of the type under consideration, said core will hold the saturant for a relatively long period of time, thus serving -to maintain the cellulose or cellophane strip in` a soft, pliable state at all times, facilitating the use thereof.
In Fig.` 6 of the drawing, I have shown a slight modification wherein a sheath or covering 26 is applied to the core 21, similar to the core I l, prior to the application of the cellulose strip 28 thereto. At 29,` I have indicated the outer binding strand or strands. With this construction, the intervening layer 26 may be composed of paper tissue or other fibrous material to give added thickness to the resulting core as well as to give added strength thereto, especially inthe use of a kraft paper. Whatever material is used, the saturant of the core will penetrate therethrough to contact with the cellulose covering 28 as well as the strips 29 if the latter are composed of cellulose Y material.
In Fig. 5 of the drawing, I have shown another modification wherein two strips 30 and 3| of different or contrasting color or structure are wound upon a saturated core 32, preferably with their adjacent edges overlapping so as to produce a two-toned effect as between the strips 30, 3|, and if the thin` or narrow strips or strands 33, 33a
' are employed, a three-toned effect may be produced. For example, the strip 30 may be green, the strip 3i red and the strands 33, 33a of a silver color.
The size of the resulting cord may be governed to a large degree upon the size of the core employed which may be as fine as a thread, in some cases; and in all cases, the width of the cellulose strip I'l will be made in proportion to the size of the cord, or when the spirally wound strips are employed, these may be of different widths depending upon the spiral employed and the desired contour which is requiredv in the resulting product. The strips I1, 28, 30 and 3l form a protecting shield or jacket which'envelops the cord and serves to protect or preserve the saturant so as to give long` life thereto, or in other words, to prolong the maintenance of the soft texture or pliability of the Vresulting strand.
My invention is not limited to any particularl arrangement or color values of the strips employed, the fundamental principle of the invention residing in the production of a strip or cord of the kind under consideration, having an outer cellulose jacket with aninner core element containing a saturant for keeping the cellulose jacket soft and pliable to facilitate the use thereof.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
