This invention relates to chaplets for use in supporting cores in foundry molds, the chaplets being made from a single piece of wire. The chaplets are two-headed, i. e., they comprise a stem and a head at each end of the stem, the heads lying in planes extending substantially at right angles to the axis of the stem. In the use of the chaplets, one head rests against the mold and the other head supports the core. The construction of the chaplets is such that they have chaplet without entrapping gas which would a firm support in the mold cavity and firmly supform gas pockets in the casting. The formation port the core so that they will not shift with of gas pockets in a casting not only is objectionrespect to the mold cavity. able from the standpoint of producing an un- This application is a division of my copending sound casting, but also because it tends to preapplication Serial No. 205,096, filed January 9, vent complete fusion of the chaplets.

Figures illustrate the Various Steps n The core 1 is supported within the mold cavity making the c p Shown i Figure l. The first by the chaplets 8. Molten metal is poured into step of the method is illustrated in Figures 3 and the mold through a gate 9 leading to the mold 4. A wire, rod or the like designated by reference cavity. numeral 20 is fed between gripping dies 2! and Referring to the other figures and more par- 22 and the dies are brought together to grip the ticularly to Figure 1, the chaplet according to wire within the hole 23 formed by the dies. The my invention is made from a single piece of wire. wire 20 is then cut off to suitable length for form- It comprises a centrally located U-shaped portion ing a chaplet, the ends 24 and 25 extending rehaving a base I0 and two legs H and 12 extendspectively beyond the faces 26 and 21 of the dies. ing at substantially right angles to the axis of In the next step of the method which is illusthe base [0. These legs II and I2 are substantrated in Figures 5 and 6, the ends 24 and 25 of tially straight and extend radially from the base the wire are bent at right angles to the portion [0. The straight leg portion H is extended and 28 of the wire which is gripped by the dies, Thi coiled into an open single-turn coil l3 lying in bending operation produces a, substantially U- a plane extending substantially at right angles to the axis of the base l0. Similarly, the lower straight leg portion I2 is extended and coiled into an open single-turn coil Hi which lies in a plane extending substantially at right angles to the axis of the base Iii. The coils l3 and i4 provide substantial spaces l5 and [6, respectively, so that when the chaplet is in use, molten metal can flow readily into contact with all exposed parts of the shaped piece having a base 28 and two straight legs 24 and 25.
In the next step of the method which is illustrated in Figures 7 and 8, the dies and wire are brought adjacent to a twirling or coiling machine --not shown-and the ends 24 and 25 are coiled into the si'ngleloop open coils 1 3 and [4 shown in Figure 1. This coiling operation is carried out in such manner as to retain the straight leg portions II and 12.
In the next step of the method which is illustrated in Figures 9 and 10, the-dies and-formed wire are brought adjacent aypress notshown, which presses the coils I3 and I4 and the straight leg portions H and I2 against the die so as to flatten them. V
In the next step of the method, not illustrated, the dies are opened and the chaplet is ejected therefrom.
Although I have illustrated and described a method of making a-chaplet having the round heads l3 and 14, the method is applicable-to theformation ofchaplets having square or other shaped heads which can readilybe obtained by slight modificationofgthe head-forming mechanism.
While the invention is not limited to the use of any particular size of Wire, the wires most generally-used range from about 1%" to /4' diameter.
From the-above "it -will be seen that I have provided a-two-headed unitary chaplet which-can be'made 'in'a relatively simple manner. The chapletprovides good seating andsupport against both;the moldan'd the-'coreand is ofsuch constructionparticularly due "tothe provision of the straight legportions II and and the open spaces l5 and l6,that:the'chapletsare relatively rigid and strong 'an'd inuse do not-give ris to gas pockets in the castin operation.

I claim:
1.
