SHEET-METAL FASTENINGCLEAT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 699,311, dated. May 6, 1902.
Application filed Ahgust 23, 1901. Serial No. 73,068. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom, may concern-.-
Beit known that I, FREDERICK EDWARD I'IEINIG, residing at Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sheet-Metal Fastening-Cleats, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This in vention relates to sheet-metal cleats,
1o holdfasts,orcover-fastenings forbarrel-heads,
box ends, dro.
The object of the invention is to produce a durable and serviceable fastening entirely from sheet metal by which Wooden cleats and i5 nails may be entirely avoided.
Figure 1 is a diagram'of a sheet, showing in dotted lines the cuts and bends to produce a cleat. Fig. 2 is a plan of the finished cleat according to one modification of my invenzo tion, and Fig. 3 is an elevatioirof the same. Fig. 4 is an end view showing modification of holding-points. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one of my cleats applied to a box-head. Fig. 6 is a broken section of barrel or box side and head with cleat applied. Fig. 7 is a broken section of right-angled cleat applied to a box. Fig. S is a perspective view of a cleat like that of Fig. 5, except for curvature, for use on a barrel.
The numeral 1 indicates a sheet of steel or similar metal, preferably galvanized on both faces. Such a strip is divided, and the rectangular strip is bent on line 2 parallel with the edges, so that it has two anges 3 and 4, which anges project from line 2 at such angle as the circumstances warrant. For abox the cleat is straight from end to end. Fora barrel it is slightly curved in direction of its length. The strip after bending has the form 4o of a cleat. It must have sufficient rigidity to hold a barrel or box head in place, as the holding effect of the cleat depends on its rigidity. One of the flanges, 4, is left plane and unperforated. The other flange, 3, has a plurality of triangular projections or holdingpoints struck therefrom. points are in pairs.
Preferably these Figs. S and S show one pair ot' points (marked (i) cut from the body ol` flange 3 at the edge thereof and extend ing backwardly with reference to flange 4, 5o the flat faces of these triangular projections or points being vertical when the cleat is in holding position, as in Figs. 5 and 7. Another pair ot' triangular projectionsorpoints (marked 5) have their bodies struck from 55 flange 3 near the bend, and these points have their dat faces horizontal in similar relation. In every case all the points are cut orstruck from flange 3 and extend backward with ret'- erence to the direction of illange 4. 6o
The cleat is applied to a box or barrel `by means of a peculiar tool, which acts as a clamp and inserts all the points at once. The flange 4 lies on. the barrel or box head when the cleat is about to be affixed, .and the ends of points 5 (5 are against the chime of the barrelor the corresponding projecting side of the box. Then as the tool forces the points 5 6 into the barrel-stave orA box side (chime) the flange 4 slides along on the head and 7o comes to holding position, as shown in Figs.
5, b', and 7, according to the construction of the cleat and the manner of using the tool. l/Vhen the points are arranged with their Hat faces at right angles to each other, as in Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, G, 8, the points brace each other and hold more firmly in the Wood than if all the points Were in one plane, since some of the points present edges and others flat faces in the direction of the grain of the Wood. 8o
The cleat is struck up and the points produced either at one operation or by a series of operations by mechanism Well known to mechanics.
An important feature of the invention is the doing away with nails, which have many objections, as known to the trade; also, the doing away with the common triangular Wooden cleat, which is often employed with barrels and boxes in position similar to this cleat and 9o usually held by nails, although sometimes held both by nails and by sheet-metal fasteners, as shown in patentto Baker, No.v 510,761, of December 12, 1893.
What I claim as my invention is flange, and extending in reverse direction Io A cleat composed of a rectangular plate of from the plane ange. metalbent on a Iine parallel to its edge to In testimony whereof I affix my signature form two flanges, one flange being plane, the in presence of two Witnesses. 5 other flange having points struck from its 1 4 l 'L 4 I body with their faces in the plane of the plane FREDERICK LDW WD MMG flange but projecting in opposite direction, Titnessesz and having also points struck from its edge HENRY Y. OFFUTT,
with their bases perpendicular to the plane C. l. PARKER.
