DEVICE FOR ATTACHING TELEPHONE AND OTHER WIRES TO INSULATORS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 17, 1905.
Application filed March 23, 1905. Serial No. 251,680.
To all, whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, Esnx IVICDANIEL and MICHAEL BARR, citizens of the United States, residing at Paris, in the county of Edgar and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Devices for At taching Telephone and other WVires to Insulators; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
Our invention relates to improvements in insulators, particularly with reference to devices for connecting telephone, telegraph, and other wires thereto, the object of our invention being to provide an improved device of this character by means of which a wire may be readily attached to and disconnected from the insulator and is rendered longitudinally movable with reference thereto to relieve the wire of undue stress; and our invention consists in the construction, combination, and arrangement of devices hereinafter described and claimed.
1n the accompanying drawings, Figurel is a side elevation of an insulator provided with a wire-attaching device embodying our im provements, the wire being shown in section. Fig. 2 is a similar view at right angles to Fig. l, the wire being shown in elevation; and Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view through the insulator on a plane coincident with the wire-attaching device, showing the latter in top plan. Fig. 4 is a detail view showing a modification in the construction of the pin.
The insulator 1 here shown is of the usual form. The same is provided with transverse annular grooves 2. Our improved wire-attaching device 3 is formed from a single piece of wire, which is doubled, as at a, twisted, as at b, to form a loop a, and has its end portions d passed around the annular grooves in the insulator and united together by twists 0, so as to secure the device firmly to the insulator. The loop 0 projects outwardly from the insulator and is bent downwardly and inwardly to form an angle f, the bend a, which forms the outer end of the loop, being caused to approach the insulator. In operation the wire g is placed in the angle f of the loop, and a pin /b is then passed downwardly in the loop on the inner side of the wire and caused to engage the two ends of the loop, so as to lock the wire in the angle f thereof. The pin,
which may be made of wire or any other suitable material, is provided with the hook t' to engage one side of the upper portion of the loop to prevent casual disengagement of the pin from the device.
It will be understood that the wire may be very readily attached to and detached from the device, that there is no necessity for passing the wire around the insulator, as is now the common practice, and it will be further understood that the wire slidably engages the loop 0, so that the wire becomes balanced on opposite sides of the insulator, and injurious and lateral stress is thereby avoided. If it be desired to lock the wire to the attaching device, so that it cannot move longitudinally therein, this may be accomplished by first bending the pin it before inserting the same and then partly turning the same to dispose its convex side against the wire, so that the pin acts as a wedge to lock the wire in the angle f of the loop.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is*
A wire-attaching device for insulators, comprising a wire band, adapted to be bent around the insulator, said band being twisted to form a loop at one side, said loop projecting outwardly from the insulator and bent downwardly and inwardly to form an angle, the band at the outer end of which approaches the insulator, in combination with a wire disposed transversely with respect to the loop and in said angle thereof, and a locking-pin on the inner side of the wire and engaged with the upper and lower ends of the loop, said pin having a hook at its upper end to engage the upper portion of the loop.
In testimony whereof. we have hereunto set our hands in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
