UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALBERT A. BLAKENEY AND JAMES S. COMPTON, OF BALTIMORE, MD. ASSIGNOR OF ON E-THIRD TO ANDREIV D. JONES, OF SAME PLACE.
L'OOM-PICKER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 340,546, dated Apri1-27, 1886.
Application filed July 25, 1885.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, ALBERT A. BLAKE NEY and JAMES S. COMPTON, citizens of the United States, residing at Baltimore. Maryland, have invented new and useful Improvements in Loom-Pickers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to loom-pickers. It is well known that these articles, in order to be successful in use, must be more or less elastic and yielding, in order not to injure the shuttle against which they are thrown, and at the same time they mustbesufficiently tough to successfully withstand the wear. A great desideratuln is a picker which possesses the properties mentioned as essential, and is at the same time cheap in cost.
The object of the present invention is to pro duce a picker which shall be cheap in first cost, easily made, possessed of the requisite amount ofe1asticity,and tough enough to with stand wear imposed by the point of the shuttle.
With these objects in view our invention consists in a picker for looms, composed of the wood of trees of the genus Eucalyptus soaked in water or oil, and having pins or rivets driven therein in diverse directions, substantially as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the use of the pickers made of the wood described, they are made in the form usually employed in pickers of leather, and provided with the usual depressions and notches for facilitating their attachment to the end of a pickerstick, the isual and preferred form being shown in Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings, in which is represented a picker Serial No. 172,667. (No model.)
I embodying our invention. Figs. 2 and 3 rep resent other views thereof, taken from the side and indicating the manner of insertion of the strengthening rivets or pins.
In each of the figures, A represents the picker, and a indicates the pins or rivets which are inserted in different or diverse directions into the material and serve to prevent any splitting or loosening of the fiber.
\Vhen fresh or recently out, the wood employed is found to contain a quantity of resinous.matter,which, however, soon hardens and loses more or less of its adhesive p )WGI'S as it becomes dry. In order, therefore, to impart to the wood the qualities it possesses in its fresh condition, thus better adapting it for our purposes, we soak, it in water or oil, and, when convenient, we consider it advisable to keep the wood in water from the time it is out until used.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
As a new article of manufacture, a loompicker composed of the wood of trees of the genus Eucalyptus soaked in water or oil, and having pins or rivets driven therein in diverse directions.
In testimony whereof we have hereunto set our hands in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ALBERT A. BLAKENEY. JAMES S. COMPTON.
