UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE JOHN S. SARGENT, OF WAKEFIELD, ASSIGNOR TO WAKEFIELD RATTAN COMPANY, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEM ENT IN DOOR-MATS.
Specification forming part of Lctters Patent No. 211,348, dated January 14, 1879; application filed December 9, 1878.
fiber, which are commonly used for forming such upper surface, the object being to unite in one mat the qualities and advantages of a woolen mat and the qualities and advantages of a mat made of hemp or similar vegetable fiber, thereby giving an attractive and ornamental appearance to a durable mat.
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents the face of the mat. Fig. 2 represents a section of said mat in the direction of the warp and at right angles to the fillings, of which there are two-a ground or back filling and a face fill- Ihe warp is marked a, the back filling b. The woolen threads of the face filling are marked 0. The vegetable fibers are marked cl. In Fig. 1 the dark spots represent woolen threads, and the light spots represent the vegetable fiber. By vegetable fiber I mean the various hemps, cocoa-nut fiber, rattan fiber, and similar articles, which are commonly used for making the upper surface of door-mats.
' In weaving the upper and lower fillings are sent through their respective sheds, and the upper fillings cut in the ordinary manner.
In preparing the upper filling, I spin the vegetable fiber and. the woolen threads together; but they might be separately wound around the rod upon which'the upper filling is introduced into the loom and produce substantially the same efi'ect. The lower filling, as shown, consists of strings of pith of rattan; but any other coarse backing will answer.
I am aware that door-mats have beenmade which show both hemp and wool on their upper surfaces; but I have not known of an interminglin g of the two substances in the manner above described. On the contrary, in weaving the mats to which I allude, care has been taken for the purpose of ornamentation by figures or borders, to keep the woole'n portion of the surface distinct from that consisting of the vegetable fiber.
I claim- A door-mat having woolen threads intermingled with vegetable fiber on its upper surface, substantially as described, for the purpose specified.
