UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN F. GREENE, OF WARWICK, ASSIGNOR TO SAMUEL BOYD TOBEY, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
IMPROVED WATER-PROOF FABRIC.
4 Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 35,854, dated July 8, 1562.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN F. GREENE, of Warwick, in the State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and improved water-proof fabric, which I call Fur-Cloth, by combining with a surface of india-rubber, either in sheets or attached to any textile or felted fabric, the fibers of fur or of disintegrated felted fabrics, as prepared by a process invented by me and patented on the 12th day of April, A, D. 1859. This fiber may also be combined with in dia-rubber spread upon leather, and the fabric thus produced may be called furred leather.
Before my invention many attempts have been made to use fibers of same length in the manufacture of india rubber fabrics with flocked surfaces; but the difficulties in cansin g them to be attached with suflicient tenacity to the india-rnbber surface and of laying them on evenly and in or nearly in parallel lines, so as to form a nap, have been so great that the processes, so far as I have been able to learn, have been abandoned, and flocks of wool without length of staple and of an almost dusty fineness form the material in general use for covering the surface of rubber and giving it the appearance of cloth. Fibers prepared from felted fabric or of fur have never, so far as I have been informed, been used for this purpose. By the use of the fiber which I prepare by my patented processes, and by the apparatus invented by me for manufacturing my fabrics by one operation, and for which I have this day applied for a patent, a smooth, soft, and evenly-mapped surface can be obtained, which can be finished by shearing, dyeing, and pressing, in the same or similar manner as napped textile fabrics.
When the rubber is prepared, either in sheets or attached to the fabric to be used as a base, in any of the modes known to indiarubber manufacturers, 1 cause the fiber to be sifted upon the surface of the rubber and to be attached to that surface, and to be laid evenly and smoothly and as nearly as possible in parallel lines upon the same, by means of an apparatus invented by me for combining fibrous flocks with india-rubber surfaces, and for which I have this day applied for Letters Patent.
The several surfaces described in the specification of the patent thus applied for may be used separately, or other devices well-known to rubber-manufacturers may be used for the purpose of performing portions of the process required for the completion of the manufacture; but the combination invented by me I have found to be the best for the purpose.
After the fiber is combined bythe operation of the apparatus with the surface of the rubber fabric the flocked surface may be subjected to afurther brushing in the common brushing-machine or gig, and may then be sheared and dressed like other napped fabrics. The water repellent properties of this fiber also give the finished article an additional value as a water-proof fabric.
What I claim as my iuvention,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- The combination of the disintegrated fibers of felt or fur, as aforesaid, with a surface of iudia-rubber, either in sheets or when attached toa base of textile or felted fabrics or to leather, so as to form a new evenly-trapped water-proof fabric, substantially as described.
JOHN F. GREENE.
