NITED STATES PATENT OFFI E.
LYMAN B. GO'FF, OF PAWTUOKET, RHODE ISLAND.
CLIP FOR BRAID, TAPE, 860., m ROLLS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 253,278, dated February '7, 1882.
Application filed January 17, 1878.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, LYMAN B. GoFF, of
Pawtucket, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented a certain new and useful Improvem entin Clips forBraid, Tape, Ribbons, &c., in Ooils or Rolls; and I do hereby declare that the following specification, taken in connection with the drawings furnished, and forming a part of the same, is a clear, true, and complete description of my invention.
My said improvements relate to that general class of tape-holding devices which have a spring capacity for compactly engaging with the periphery of a coil of tape, for instance, as set forth in the United States Letters Patent granted to M. B. Westhead, October 3d, A. D. 1865; and the object of myinvention is to provide in a practicable sliding spring-clip a guidin g capacity for controlling the outer layer of the fabric as it is being unwound or rewound, and, in addition thereto, to provide for the lateral support of the coil, and to render the clip easily applied or removed without disturbing the coil, or liability ofinjuring the spring thereof. For a spring I use either elastic rubber or metal,asmaybeineachinstancedesired. When I use rubber I am enabled by reason of my invention to utilize the well-known endless elastics, such as are commonly used for holding papers, &c., instead of using a length of elastic cord, and I therefore obviate knotting or tying it, as heretofore, and as I avoid knotting I save much labor in applying my clips as compared with theprevious rubber clip. The coils or rolls of fabric being of a given size, I attain a more uniform compression of my spring by using rubber elastics of a uniform capacity or size than I could if each piece of elastic cord required to be knotted or tied, because of the difficulty in locating a knot to be tied in an elastic cord. In using metal springs, I prefer that they be bow-shaped, because they are extended each side of the axis of the coil and atford extensive lateral support for the fabric, which, it it be braid loosely coiled, is a matter of considerableconsequence. The portion of my clip which engages with the periphery, and adjacent thereto with the sides of the coil of fabric, is sufficiently rigid to afford a lateral over the hooks a 011 the guide.
support for a portion of the coil in aline substantially radial from the center of the roll, so that it may also serve as a guide for properly laying the free end of the fabric in rewinding it.
To more particularly describe my invention, I will refer to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a coil of braid provided with one form of my improved clip. Figs. 2 and 3 represent respectively a metal sliding guide and a common rubber elastic detached from the roll. Fig. 4 represents a sliding guide composed of bent wire and arranged to engage with a spring. Fig. 5 represents a coil of braid provided with a guide and a wire spring.
The guide A may be made of sheet metal, as show-n in the drawings, or of wire, as in Fig. 4, which affords two points of contact with the periphery, or it may be composed of a single length'of wire, but provided, of course, with means for connection with the spring. I do not limit myself to an y particular form of guide, nor to any particular material, provided it operates as a rigid sliding guide and serves as a support for a portion of the coil in a line practically radial from the center.
The springBmayalso be made of any desired material. For small coils of braid a short elastic may be profitably employed by passing one end ofit through the center of the coil, or acore, if one be used, and its two ends are then passed Wire springs should be provided with bends or recesses, as at c, for ready and secure engagement with a central pin, and with the hooks of the guide. The bow form of spring afi'ords an extensive support for loosely-coiled braid on each side of a radial line extending from the center to the guide. For this form of spring a central bar or pin with two heads may be employed, either within a Wooden core, or in the center of the coil, if no core be used. Bow-springs may be made of a single length of Wire, the;two ends being interlocked at c. It will beiseen that when the rubber spring is employed no knotting or tying is needed, and that it can be readily applied or removed, if occasion requires it. I sometimes employa loose tube at the cen- IOO stance, these flanges would serve as guides.
It will be seen, however, that these flanges would project beyond the periphery of the coil and be bulky and inconvenient for packing, and that in rolling they would have a tend eney to override the edge of the coil, and also that the peripherical roller would twist the rubber and weaken it, and I therefore limit my invention to a sliding guide, by means of which these several objections are obviated.
My improved spriugclip has a special value in connection with braid of the class known as gross goods and put up in large coils.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A spring-clip for tapes, braids, and other coiled narrow fabrics, which is provided with a rigid sliding guide, serving as a lateral support for a portion of the coil in a line practically radial from the center, and a suitable spring or springs for confining said sliding guide to its working position, substantially as described.
2. The combination of a rigid sliding guide, serving as a lateral support for a portion of a coil of fabric, and aseparate spring or springs, the whole constituting a spring-clip, substantially as described.
