1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to a hand loom or weaving frame and it is one object of the invention to provide a loom consisting of a frame formed of a plurality of bars which are detachably secured to each other and form aframe of predetermined shape, the bars carrying upwardly projecting pins about which astrand of worsted or other suitable material is trained back and forth across the frame and another strand, or. a continuatio'n of the same strand, then interwoven with the first strand to form a woven mat which isthen removed'from the pins and may be used for any purposedesired or combined with additional mats to form a quilt, bed spread, or the like.
Another object of the invention is to provide a weaving frame consisting of bars which are firmly connected with each other but may be easily and quickly taken apart and the bars then placed in a small receptacle or tied together in a compact bunch until again needed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a weaving frame formed of bars which are detachably connected with each other by bolts passed diagonally through inner end portions of the bars and through selected ones of a plurality of openings spaced from each other longitudinally of the bars, thus allowing the bars to be so connected that a weaving frame of predetermined dimensions will be formed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a frame formed of bars detachably secured together, these bars having extensions consisting of auxiliary bars which are firmly secured to their companion bars and thus permit a frame which is appreciably larger than a frame formed by the first mentioned bars to be formed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a weaving frame which is simple in construction and may be manufactured at low cost.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of the improved weaving frame or loom.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken transversely through the frame along the line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary view showing a portion of a frame of modified construction partially in top plan and partially in section.
This weaving frame or hand loom consists of a plurality of bars I which have been shown as six in number but may be more or less according to whether the frame is to be of hexagonal shape, as shown, or some other shape. The fiat inner end of each of the bars I is cut diagonally and this flat inner end 2 of. the. bar is disposed. in abutting engagement with the flat inner side face of the bar to which it is secured. Openings 3:are: formed diagonally through the inner ends of. the barsto receive securing bolts 4 and these boltszare each passed through selected ones of a plurality; of openings 5 formed in the bar with which its inner end has abutting engagement. The openin s 5 are spaced from each other equal distancesand by selecting the proper openings a frame-may be formed which has sides of the same length. Thebolts have heads at their inner ends seated or. countersunk in enlarged inner,
In order to form a frame of a greater size than permitted by the bars I and in addition provide the frame with portions which will serve as handles by means of which it may be conveniently held while in use there have been provided auxiliary bars 9 which may be referred to as outer sections for the main bars I. These auxiliary bars are of the same transverse shape and dimensions as the main bars and are formed with openings l0 corresponding to the openings 5 and carry pins ll corresponding to the pins 8. The inner and outer ends of the auxiliary bars are cut diagonally as shown at I2 and l3 in Figure 1 so that their inner ends may be disposed fiat against the diagonally cut outer ends M of the main bars and bolts [5 passed through registering openings formed through the overlapping ends of the main bars and the auxiliary bars to securely hold the auxiliary bars in engagement with the main bars that permit removal of the same. Ihe fact that the outer ends of the auxiliary bars are cut diagonally as well as their inner ends permits additional auxiliary bars to be applied when necessary. By comparing Figures 1 and 3 it will be seen that the ends of the auxiliary bars and outer ends of the main bars may be cut diagonally in The pins such a direction that they extend between the inner and outer side faces of the bars at a forward incline or at a rearward incline. In either form the abutting ends of the main bars and the auxiliary bars overlap diagonally and the bolts I5 may be passed through registering openings formed through the overlapping portions and their nuts then applied and tightened to firmly hold the auxiliary bars to the main bars. The
inner ends-of the bars I may then be secured against inner side faces of the auxiliary bars and the size of the frame increased to an extent not permitted if the auxiliary bars were not provided.
bars may be shifted to adjusted positions and secured to form a frame of predetermined size, yarn-engaging pins projecting upwardly from said bars and spaced from each other longitudinally of the bars, front ends of the bars being formed with diagonally extending faces, auxiliary bars disposed longitudinally of the first bars in alignment therewith and having diagonally extending end faces conforming to the angle of the front end faces of the firstbars and disposed in fiat contacting and overlapping engagement therewith, bolts passing through the overlapping "end portions of the first bars and the auxiliary In addition to serving as extensions for increasing the size of the frame the auxiliary bars also serve as handles which may be conveniently grasped and the frame conveniently held while the weaving frame is in use. When the bolts are removed bars; said auxiliary bars being formed with longitudinally spaced bolt-receiving openings through'which the securing bolts for rear ends of ..;.the first bars are adapted to be passed and dethe main bars and the auxiliary bars may betied in a compact bundle or placed in a box until use of the frame is again desired. 3 1
Having thus described the invention, vwhat is claimed is: v V V A hand loom comprising a frame consisting of bars defining a geometrical figure and each having a rear end disposed'in close-fitting abutting engagement with the inner side face of an ad- 'joining bar, bolts passing through registering ly from the auxiliary bars.
tachably secure the first bars to the auxiliary bars, and yarn-engaging pins projecting upward- GUY L; PHELPS.
