UNITED STATES GEORGE F. OONNER, OF PORT HURON, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO THE PORT HURON ENGINE AND THRESIIER COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
RADDLE FOR CONVEYERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 651,065, dated June 5, 1900.
Application filed February 14,1899. Serial No. 705,470. (No model.)
To CLZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE F. CONNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Port Huron, in the county of St. Clair and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Raddles for Oonveyers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in the construction of raddles for use in conveyers for carrying straw, shavings, grain, &c.
The object of my invention is to provide a raddle in which the slats are easilyand quickly attached to the bands, an improved method of attachment, and to prevent the slat from splitting or checking in manufacture or in use. As hitherto constructed it was neces sary to bind the slat with metal to prevent splitting and the method of attachment was slow and more expensive than the improved method I employ. The previous method also left the end of the slat rough, and also as the wood shrunk it became loose. My construction is simpler and lighter and absolutely prevents the splitting of the slat. I attain these objects by the construction shown in the drawings, in which Figure 1 shows the method of attachment of slat to band; Fig. 2, the piece of metal used to prevent splitting, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view through a portion of the slat A.
Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A slat of wood A is attached to the belt B by means of a staple c, driven through the belt and the slat and clenched on the opposite side of the slat, as indicated by dotted lines. In the end of-the slat is driven a corrugated binder d,of iron, steel, or other metal. This is driven with the grain and extends transversely of the slat and of the staple. The strip being practically inextensible and its corrugations a'ifordinga firm hold on the Wood, it prevents the slat from splitting when the staple is driven therein or after it is in when strain is put thereon. The belt where fastened to the slat is held at two points by the staple, and as the corrugated binder prevents the staple from splitting the wood or working loose the raddle is held square and does not draw or lengthen on one side and get out of true.
Fig. 2 shows the shape of the binder d.
Fig. 3 shows a section or part of a completed raddle, three bandsB B B being used in the raddle shown.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination with a belt and slat, of means for securing the same together and preventing the splitting of the slat, comprising securing devices engaging the belt and passing into the slat, and a corrugated metallic strip embedded in the slat adjacent the securing devices and extending transversely relative thereto substantially as described.
2. The combination with a belt and a slat, of means for securing the belt to the slat and preventing the splitting of the slat comprising a securing device engaging the belt and passing into the slat at a distance from the end thereof, and a corrugated metallic binding-strip embedded in the end of the slat and extending transversely relative to the securing device, substantially as described.
5. The combination with a belt, and a slat extending transversely thereof, of means for securing the belt to the slat and preventing the splitting of the latter, comprisinga securing device extending transversely of the belt and longitudinally of the slat and passing through the belt and into the slat a distance from the end thereof, and a corrugated metallic strip embedded in the end of the slat and extending transversely thereof, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE F. CONNER. Witn esses:
