FRED B. PARKS, OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
TIRE-PLUG.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 12, 1905.
Application filed February 27,1901. Serial No- 49,151.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRED B. PARKS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tire-Plugs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in plugs for closing punctures in pneumatic tires; and its object is to provide a plug that will perfectly adjust itself to a knife-cut or other similar puncture. I attain this object by the 7 peculiar construction shown in the. accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective of the plug, and Fig. 2 shows the same passing through a puncture in a piece of tire.
Similar letters refer to similar parts in both views.
A represents the stem of the plug,which is lenticular in form with the edges sharp, so that they will enter and fill the sharp terminus of a knife-cut. I also make the outer end smaller than the end at the head, so that the plug will enter easily and after having been drawn into the puncture will expand, so as to fill the puncture and overlap on the outside, it being understood that the plug is made of very pliable rubbers, so that it may be stretched to several times its normal length and will upon resuming its normal size adjust itself to fill every crevice in a puncture.
' B represents the head of the plug, the form of which is immaterial, and 0 represents a broken section of a tire, showing a puncture 0, through which the plug A is passed.
Having thus fully described my'invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
1. A tire-plug having a head and a lenticular stem projecting from one side thereof, said stem thick in the center and tapering to thin sharp edges, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination in a tire-plug of a head and a thin lenticular stem projecting from one side thereof, said stem tapering smaller toward the end and to sharp edges, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
Signed at Grand Rapids, Michigan, February 12, 1900.
