Description
' UNITED STATES .PATENT Ornicn.
FRANZ C. GUILLEAUME, OF COLOGNE, GERMANY.
WIRE lVlAT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 375,321, dated December 20, 1887.
Application led December 28,1886. Serial No. 222,809. (No model.) Patented in England December 7, 1885, Nal/1,998.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANZ CARL GUIL- LEAUME, a subject of the Emperor of Germany, residing at Cologne, in the Empire of Germany, have invented certain Improvements in Wire Mats, (for which I have obtained Letters Patent of the United Kingdom vof Great Britain and Ireland, No. 14,998,
dated December 7, 1885,) of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a wire fabric primarily designed for floor-mats, but which may of course be'employed for other purposes or uses; and the object of my invention is, in the main, to provide the body of the mat, which is made up of body-coils of spiral Wire arranged parallel and locked together by rods, with border-coils, a frame, stift'ening-rods,&c., all as will be hereinafter fully described.
The novel features of my invention will be carefully defined in the claims.
In the drawings, which serve to illustrate myinvention,Figure 1 represents in plan,and Fig. 2 in transverse section, a corner of a wire mat or piece of matting constructed according to my invention.
In the views, a are the spiral bodycoils arranged parallel or side by side, the convolutions of each overlapping that of its laterallycontiguous coil or coils. The loops formed by such overlapping portions of the coils are traversed by rods b, which thus serve to lock or unite each coil to its next neighbor, and thus form a body fabric for the mat. Broadly speaking, such an arrangement of spiral coils as that I have described to form 'a wire fabric is not new with me, and I do not claim it.
At the extremities of the body-coils a are arrangedthe side coils or border-coils, c, of spiral wire, these latter being secured to the ends of the body-coils by the ends of the Wires forming the latter coils being engaged within the convolutions of the side coils,c. The border-coils c are arranged across the ends of the body-coils a and at right angles thereto. The border-coils c are parallel with the body-coils, and may be in fact the two marginal bodycoils.
Extending through the border-coils is a bar, d, which forms a frame for stiffening the mat. Some of the rods b may be riveted, soldered,
or otherwise secured to the bars of yframe d which traverse their ends. The body of the fabric is also threaded with wires or rods f f',
which pass diagonally across it, as represented.
and serve to stiften it. If it be desired to still further stiften the fabric, wires or rods, as indicated at g g, may be passed through the bodycoils at right-angles to rods b. If these rods g be employed, they, or some of them, may be secured to frame d, as described with reference to rods b.
It will be perceived that the stiffeningframe d, with which the border-coils are furA nished, not only serves to secure the structure against undue lateral flexnre, but to assist in retaining in place the diagonal wires f f, whether attached or loose in place, as also the transverse wires or rods g, when these latter are employed.
One or both of the side coils, c, may be traversed by a stift'eningrod, e, adapted for securing the mat in its intended position. Such an addition is of special utility in a foot-mat. In that case the whole structure pivots about such fixed rod when the mat is raised for sweeping. This rod e may be either of wood or metal.
Having thus described my invention, I
' claiml. The combination, with the parallel bodycoils a and rods b, threaded through the overlapping convolutions of said coils, of the coils c, arranged across the ends of the body-coils andjoined thereto,as described, and the frame d, the bars of which traverse said coils c, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with the parallel overlapping body-coils a and a', of the rods which y lock said coils together, the side coils connected to the ends of the body-coils, the frame traversing the border-coils c and a of the mat, and the bar e, traversing a side coil, c, of the mat, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with the bodycoils a and marginal coils a', arranged parallel with their convolutionsoverlapping, of the rods b, connecting said coils, the side coils, c, of spiral wire, arranged across the ends of the bodycoils and united to them, as described, the frame d, its bars traversing the border-coils a and c, the diagonal rods j' f', traversing the body-coils, and the strip e, traversing a side coil, c, to form :t hinging-strip, substantially l as set forth.
4. A mat having its body composed of coils 5 of spiral Wire arranged parallel and locked together laterally by means of rods passing through loops formed by overlapping portions of the laterally-contiguous coils, and having side coils of spiral wire arranged across the ends of the body-coils, the latter being sero cured to said side coils by the engagement of the ends of the wires forming the bodycoils wi th the convol'utions of the side coils, as set forth.
