JOHN JUDD, OF CHERRY VALLEY, NEW YORK.
TRELLlS-HOOK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 334,706, dated January 19, 1886.
Application 'filed October 22, 1885. Serial No. 180,642. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN JUDD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cherry Valley, in the county of Otsego and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in TrellisHooks, of which the following is a specification.
' In my Letters Patent No. 294,240 is shown and claimed a trellis -hook consisting of a frame having at one end alpendent jaw and at the other end a recess and an eye, said recess being in the bottom edge of the frame, for receiving the loop or knot of the cord tied in the eye, to prevent the loop or knot from turning. Such trellis-hooks are suspended by their pendent jaws directly from the horizontal wire of the trellis-work, and are liable to be accidentally displaced. Besides, it is necessary to tie the oblique cords directly to the hole in the lower end of the trellis-hook, there being no provision for attaching the trellis-hooks to slats, so that the oblique cords could be fastened to said slats. :Io-provide a trellis-hook of the character set forth, I provide it with means whereby it can be attached to a slat, which is the main object of the invention, and also to avoid the necessity of using the end hole and recess for attaching the oblique trellis-cords, and to secure the trellis-hooks to slats to which the oblique cords are secured.
The object of my invention is accomplished in the manner and by the construction hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure 1 represents a face view of my trellishook. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section. Fig. 3 is a face view of a trellis rigged up with my hooks.
Similar letters indicate correspondingparts.
In the drawings, the letter A designates the base-plate of my trellis-hook. From the front of this base-plate projects the nose B, and from its rear project two or more spurs, G. The object of these spurs is to enable me to attach my trellis-hook readily to a wooden slat in the required position, and by a few light blows with a hammer the spurs are driven into or through the slat, so as to attach the hook to the slat. In order to be able to produce a firm and permanent connection between the hook and the slat, I prefer to make the spurs flexible and of such a length. that they will extend through the slat and can be clinched. This object can be attained either by casting tacks into the base plate, as shown in Fig. 2, or, if the base-plate V is of malleable cast-iron, the flexible spurs can be cast integral with said base-plate. If the spurs are intended to be driven simply into (not through) the slat, they can be cast integral with the base-plate, even if the latter is composed of ordinary cast-iron.
The trellis'hooks herein described are, by preference, made similar to those described in my Patent No. 29 L240, dated February 26, 188i, and by providing these hooks with spurs I am enabled to attach them readily to the slats D, and thereby I gain the advantage that the weight of the growing hops or other plants is principally supported by the slats D, while the cords F F, Fig. 3, are relieved so that they are not liable to break, as the vine naturally follows the slat above the main wire E and becomes firmly attached to the slat, thus causing the greater part of the weight of the vine to come on the slats, and doing away with the necessity of training the vine on the Wire for support, and avoiding the wear and breakage of the vine consequent upon the hanging of the vine directly on the wire.
I am aware that wire hooks and tacks have been struck up with prongs, and that hat and coat hooks and wardrobe-hooks have been formed with upper and lower prongs to engage wooden supports. Such constructions, therefore, I do not claim; but
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A trellis-hook, A, consisting of a castmetal base-plate having at its front a depending nose, B. and at its rear surface an upper and a lower attached spur, G, for connecting the hook with a slat to which the oblique cords of the trellis-frame are directly secured, substantially as described.
2. A trellis-hook, A, consisting of a castmetal base-plate provided with a dependingnose, B, and having its rear surface cast integral with the flexible spurs, to connect with a slat to which the oblique cords of thetrel- \Vitnesses:
