Description
UNITED STATES PATENT QFFICE.
'ALBERT Gr. COOK, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUASETTS.
TREE-PROTECTOR.
SPECIF ICA'I'ION forming part of Letters Patent No. 223,996, dated February 3, 11880.
Application fiiea October 27, 1'879.
To all whom it may concern: i
Be' it known that 1, ALBERT G. COOK, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk'and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tree-Protectors; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, whichlwill enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, 'which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements on that class of tree-protectors in which a flex'ible cloth and a inovable metallic band or ring are arranged and Combined with an annular receptacle for cement or the usual sticky and adhesive compound.
Said annular receptacle has heretofore been madein two parts-viz., the outer cylindrical wall or band, secured to the trunk of the tree by means of screws or stays, and the inwa-rdlyprojecting conical or tapering annular ring or strip-which two parts have usually been soldered together at their lower edges, which construction has the disadvantages of requiring the cutting out of a peculiar curved piece for the inner taperin g wall of the aforesaid receptacle for every different size of protectors, besides the extra labor of soldering the two parts together.
These objections I overcome by making said receptacle of one single piece, the lower part of which is folded and crimped or corrugated to the desired conical or taperin g form, as will now be further shown and described by reference to the annexed drawings, on which- Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my improved tree-protector. Fig. 2 represents a central Vertical section, and Fig. 3 represents a bottom view of the same.
Similar letters refer to similar parts wherever they occur on the different parts of the drawings.
a is the trunk of a tree, and b is the flexible cloth, attached thereto at c in the usual manner. d is the up-and-down-adj ustable annular ring or band, to which the lower edge of the flexible cloth b is attached, as usual. c el is the annular receptacle for the sticky or adhesive substance, which receptacle is made in one single piece, composing the cylindrical band or wall e, that is attached to the trunk a by means of screws f f f f, or suitable or equivalent devices, and the inwardly-projecting and tapering part e', the latter being crimped or corrugated to the desired form, as shown in Figs. 2 'and 3, for the purpose set forth.
Having thus fully described the nature and construction of my invention, I wish to secure by Letters Patent and clain1- In combination, the flexible cloth bl, movable ring d, and the annular receptacle e c', made in one single piece, and-having its tapering inner surface, e', critnped or corrugated to its desired shape, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I clairn the foregoing as my own invention I have affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALBERT G. COOK.
