BELT-FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 621 ,1'79, dated March 14, 1899.
A Application filed January 27, 1898- $erial No. 668,169. (No model.)
. To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LINCOLN TAYLOR, a citizen of the United States, residing at Stainford, county of Fair-field, State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Belt- Fastening, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the class of beltfastenings in which the abutting ends of a belt are secured together by a wire lacing, and has for its object to provide a fastening of this class, adapted for all kinds of belts, which shall extend continuously from edge to edge of the belt without the lacing crossing itself at any point and without any second or backward lacing, which shall be flexible and strong, shall hold the edges of the belt firmly in contact with each other'and prevent the outer side of the joint from opening in use by means of sets of longitudinal strands, each set consisting oftwo longitudinal strands on the pulley side of the belt and one longitudinal strand on the outer side of the belt, and shall by means of alternating transverse strands on theouter side of the belt prevent the lacing from tearing out of the belt in use. In order to accomplish these results, I have devised the novel belt-fastening which I will now describe, referring by letters and numbers to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figures 1 and 2 are views, respectively, of the pulley and outer sides of a belt the ends of which are secured together by my novel fastening, and Figs. 3 and. 4 are corresponding views illustrating the manner in which the fastening is made.
A and B denote the ends of a belt, each of which is provided with lacing-holes 1, and C a lacing by which the ends are secured together.
Although my novel belt-fastening contemplates that there shall be no backward lacing or second series of strands, it is immaterial whether the lacing commences at the middle of the belt and extends in both directions to the edges of the belt or at either edge thereof and extends to the opposite edge, or through which end of the belt the lacing is first passed.
The longitudinal strands on the pulley side of the belt are designated by 2, the longitudinal strands on-the outer side of the belt by 3, and the transverse strands on the outer side of the belt by 4. For convenience in description-I shall term each pair of longitudinal strands on the pulley side of the belt and the single longitudinal strand on the outer side of the belt, which is formed simultaneously therewith, a set of longitudinal strands.
In starting to lace a belt the operator would usually start at the center of the belt and lace in opposite directions; but for convenience in description let us suppose that he starts at the left, as seen in Fig. 1, which illustrates the pulley side of the belt. The. operator may first pass the lacing downward through the first hole'at the left in end B, leaving, preferably, a fastening end, as 5. The lacing is then passed straight across and upward through the first hole at the left in end A, forming a longitudinal strand 3 on the outer side of the belt. (See Fig. 2.) The lacing is then passed straight across and downward a second time through the first hole at 7 5 the left in end B, forming a longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. (See Fig. 1.) The lacing is then passed straight across and upward a second time through the first hole at the left in end A, forming a second longitudinal strand 3 on the outer side of the belt, (see Fig. 2,) and then passed straight across and downward a third time through the first hole at the left in end B, forming a second longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. (See Fig. 1.) It will be noted in Fig. 2 that the duplication of 1011- gitudinal strands 3 on the outer side of the belt, the formation of which has just been described, takes place at the edges only of 0 the belt. I preferably, though not necessarily, start and finish the lacing in such a manner as to leave this additional longitudinal strand 3 on the outer side at each edge of the belt. The fastening end 5 is secured in 5 place and serves to fasten the lacing securely by being passed downward through the second hole in end B, as clearly shown in Fig. 1, the extreme end of fastening end 5 being turned outward and pressed downward upon :00 the outer side of the belt, as clearly shown in Fig. 2. After forming the longitudinal strands just described the lacing is passed inward transversely from the first hole in end B to the second hole in end B and then upward through said second hole in end B, forming a transverse strand 4 on the outer side of end B. (See Fig. 2.) The lacing is then passed straight across and downward through the second hole in end A, forming a longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. (SeeFig.1.) The lacingis then passedstraight across and upward a second time through the second hole in end B, forming a longitudinal strand 3 on the outer side of the belt, and then straight across and downward a second time through the second hole in end A, forming a second longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. The lacing is then passed inward again transversely from the second hole inend A to the third hole in end A and then upward through said third hole in end A, forming a transverse strand 4: on the outer side of end A. (See Fig. 2.) The lacing is then passed straight across and downward through the third hole in end B, forming a longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. (See Fig.1.) The lacing-is then passed straight across and upward a second time through the third hole in end A, forming a longitudinal strand 3 on the outer side of the belt, (see Fig. 2,) and then straight across and down asecond time through the third hole in end B, forming a second longitudinal strand 2 on the pulley side of the belt. The lacing is then passed inward again transversely from the third hole in end B to the fourth hole in end B and then upward through said fourth hole in end B, forming another transverse strand 4 on the outer side of end L, (see Fig. 2,) this process of lacing being repeated until the edge of the belt is reached. At each edge of the belt, as already stated, I preferably form an additional longitudinal strand 3. The end of the lacing is cut off so as to leave a fastening end 5,which is passed inward transversely from the last hole in end B and downward through the next to the last hole in end B, the extreme end being pressed down upon the outer side of the belt, as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 4. It will be noticed that the lacing is straight forward from the start, there being no crossing of the lacing nor backward lacing. The strands are formed in the following order: After each transverse strand I form a set of longitudinal strandsthat is, two parallel longitudinal strands are formed on the pulley side of the belt and simultaneously therewith a single longitudinal strand on the outer side of the belt, after which a transverse strand is formed on the opposite end of the belt from that on which the former transverse strand was formed, and so on to the edge of the belt, the transverse strand formed immediately after each set of longitudinal strands alternating with-that is, being on the opposite end of the belt fromthe transverse strand formed immediately before said set of longitudinal strands.
Having thus described my invention, I claim A belt-fastening consisting of a single lacing-strand extending continuously from one edge of the belt to the other, said strand passing through the lacing-holes in the ends of the belt twice so as to form two-strand, longitudinally-disposed stitches on the pulley side of'the belt and single-strand longitudinally-disposed stitches on the outerside of the belt, and laterally-disposed, singlestrand stitches on the outer side of the belt connecting said lacing-holes in alternate pairs on either side of the meeting line of the belt ends, whereby the lacing-strand is extended continuously from one edge of the belt to the other without backward lacing, and whereby the said stitches are so disposed as that the lacing-strands do not cross one another in the formation of the stitches.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
LINCOLN TAYLOR.
