BALE-TIE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters latent No. 573,872, dated December 29, 1896. Application filed October 4, 1894. Serial No. 524,865. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN WOOL GRIsWoLn, of Troy, Rensselaer county, New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bale-Ties, of which the following is a specification.
. and 2 represent my bale-tie in face and side views, and Fig. 3 a cross-section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
A is thebale-band, which is made of wire of suitable size. At one end of said band is made a loop B by doubling over the extremity of the band and twisting the parts together.
in the usual way. In loop 13 is a thimble or lining (J. The thimble O is preferably made of tough or malleable metal. It is provided with an angle D, which at its apex isnarrower than the diameter of the band-wire A. The arms of the thimble G are spread apart and then turned inward, as indicated at a,
' so that their extremities finally meet, as shown at b, at or very near to the angle formed by the twisted-together parts of the bale-band. The part of the loop in which said angle is situated I herein term the base of the loop.
The thimble or lining O has an external groove or channel 0, which receives the wire of the loop B, and the inner side of the thimble or lining O is convex or rounded, as shown at D. The thimble C may therefore be made of a flat strip of malleable, tough metal bent longitudinally, so as to produce the concav0- convex shape before referred to, and also transversely, as described, to produce the angle D and the meeting of the ends of the arms at b.
The operation of the device is as follows: After the bale-band has been placed around the bale the free-end of the wire A is inserted held.
leased from the press, its expansion, exerting a a longitudinal strain upon the band, forces the inserted end still more snugly into the angle D, so that said end thus becomes firmly The described construction of the thimble or lining G is such as to prevent any closingin action of the sides or arms of said thimble when strain is applied to the band. This is efiected, first, by the meeting of the ends of the arms of the thimble at the. point 6, and, second, by the seating of said abutting ends in the angle atthe base of the loop. It will also be observedthat the thimble or lining is best shown arch-shaped in cross-section, by
which means its greater stiffness and resistance to deformation under strain is secured.
I claim- 1. In a wire bale-band, a loop or eye and in said loop a thimble or lining having an angle, the width of which, at its apex, is less than the diameter of said band-wire, and having the extremities of its arms in contact and seated in an angle at the base of said loop, substan- .tially as described. I
2. In a wire bale-band, a loop or eye formed by twisting said band upon itself and a thimble or lining having an external groove or channel wherein the wire of said loop is received, the said thimble having an angle the width of which at its apex is less than the diameter of said band-wire, and having the extremities of its arms in contact and seated in the angle at the base of said loop formed by the twisted-together parts of said band, substantially as described.
3. In a wire bale band, the integrallyformed loop or eye B and the thimble or lining, (J, in said loop, provided with the angle D having the inner, rounded surface cl and external groove or channel 0, and having its arms meeting at their extremities b; the said extremities being seated in an angle at the base of said loop, substantially as described.
4. In a wire bale band, the integrallyformed loop or eye B and the thimble or lin- 6. A bale-tie made of wire, having at one end a loop With a pinching angle and provided. with a filling-piece having ends which extend back of the median transverse line of the clasp.
