WHIP.
$PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 392,122, dated October 30, 1888.
Application filed May 2], 1888.
To aZZ whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EVERETT HORTON, of Bristol, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Whip-Stocks; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection With accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-
Figure l, the whip complete. Fig. 2 illustrates the method of manufacture; Fig. 3, a transverse section of the stock complete.
This invention relates to an improvement in whip-stocks, the object being to produce'a stock the body of which may be of steel or other elastic metal, and yet very light, elastic, and durable; and it consists in a stock made from several strands of wire braided upon a former, which, during the operation of braiding, serves as a core to give the requisite taper and shape to the stock, the braiding operation interlacing the several strands of wire from butt to-tip, and so that the core removed leaves a firm metallic hollow stock, which may be covered with thread or not, and as more fully hereinafter described. I
In the manufacture of my improved whipstock I employ a machine known as a braiding-machine, and such as used for covering whip-stocks, wire, 81c. Centrally through the machine I introduce a former, of any suitable material,which in shape corresponds to the interior of the stockto be produced. I supply the machine with strands of steel or other suitable wire, but annealed. Then these strands of annealed wire are braided upon the former, the former passing through the machine as the surface is covered with the braided annealed Wire, the braiding operation continuing until the desired length of stock is attained. This braiding operation interlaces the several strands of wire as they pass around the stock, so as to form an interlaced wire shell around the core. After the braiding operation the core is withdrawn and the braided wire stock or body for a stock is then hardened and tempered in the usual manner of hardening and tempering like metals.
In Fig. 2 I illustrate the core as during the operation of braiding, the upper portion being partially covered, a representing the core, and b b the several strands of wire, which are interlaced around the core.
After the tempering operation, which gives to the metal the required elasticity, the stock may be trimmed in any of the usual methods of trimming whip-stocks, and thus used as a metal-surface stock; or the metal stock may serve as a hollow metal body and be covered with a braided fibrous covering, such as commonly employed for covering whip-stocks, so that when complete the stock will present a common fibrous or covered surface.
The braided wire makes a hard stock, yet very elastic and durable, because not liable to break in use, and of a weight no greater than solid-core stocks of equal size.
I claim 70 Theherein-describedhollowwhip-stocl ,consisting of a body made from several strands of braided elastic wire, substantially as described.
EVERETT HORTON.
