TOOL FOR BALE-TIES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 694,952, dated March 1 1, 1902.
Application filed March 22, 1901. serial No. 52,449. (No model.)
T0 ah whom it may OOH/08772,,
Be it known that WG,WILLIAM JAMES ENG- LISH and LEsLIE ALEXANDER, citizens of the United States, and residents of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, haveinvented new and useful Improvements in Tools for Bale-Ties, of which the fol-' lowing is a specification.
The object of the presentinvention is to provide a tool for fastening bale-ties; and the principal feature is to so arrange the same that a tension can be produced on the tie while it is being fastened; and it further provides a means whereby the prong of the tie is placed through the loop of the other end of the tie and easily secured in position by the The tool for doing this consists of a bar having at one end a slotted opening extending back a suitable distance, and at one side of this slot, at or near its base, is a projecting prong parallel with the side of the bar, which is in such a position and so arranged relatively to the end of the binder-wire that it will grasp the same and permit the other looped end of the binder-wire, which is on the body of the tool, to slide-down and over the point and engage with the hook of the binderwire.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure'l is a side View of the two ends of a binder-wire with the improved tool attached preparatory to tying the same. Fig. 2 is a side View showing the free end of the tool turned to throw the loop onto the hook. Fig. 3 represents the tool withdrawn and the tie secured in position. Fig. 4: is a side View of the tool, and Fig. 5 edge View of the same.
The object is to use the tool for securing the ordinary form of wire tie, the kinds usually employed for bales employing a hook of some kind at one end of the wirebinder and a loop at the other end. We show such .a form herein,where oneend of the wire binder 6 has a portion 7, which is lapped back on itself, and a reentrant hook 8 is formed, and the terminal is then twisted with the body of the wire, as shown at 9. The other end of the wire binder has a loop 10, and thedesire is to so provide a tool that sufficient tension may be exerted on the wire binder 'to bring them together and bythe same operation force the lapped end 7 of the wire to enter the loop 10, as shown in Fig. 3, and at the same time place the loop around the rentrant hook 8. The tool to accomplish this is Very simple in its structure, being a bar of metal the body of which is preferably oval in cross-section, at the forward end of which it is forged square in cross-section, and through this squared portion is formed a slotted opening 11, which extends back a suitable distance. The forward end of the tool 15 has the wings l4 on the sides of the slotted opening connected by the integrally-formed connection 12, suitably rounded, so that it will easily rest against the hook 8 when in position and not produce a wearing motion against the hook when pressure is exerted in drawing the ends of the tie together. At the rear end of the slotted opening is a projecting prong or guard 13, which extends along one side of the slot a short distance, this prong being in such a position that when the end of the tool is placed on the reentr'ant hook 8 and the lapped portion 7 of the wire is placed in the slotted opening the end of the lapped portion will rest against the prong or guard, as shown in Fig. 1, so
that the operation in swinging the tool around to effect tension and draw the opposite ends of the binder wire together, the prong will cause the wire to bend, as shown at 16 in Fig.-
2, and thus permit the loop to pass over the end of the prong 7, which lies in the slot of the tool, and engage with the hook 8. Pro paratory to this bending operation the oppo site end of the wire 6, which is provided with the loop 10, is placed on the body of the tool 15, as shown in Fig. 1, and as the free end of the tool swings around the loop 10 can be forced down toward the hook 8, passing over the lapped end 7 of the wire, and when the loop 10 engages with the hook 8 the tool 15 can readily be withdrawn. The tension of the binder-wire 6 is generally sufficient to cause the bent portion, as at 16, to straighten out and assume the form shown in Fig. 3.
