LVITNESES- I WILLIAM J. CAMPBELL,
OF DAYTON, VIRGINIA.
HAME-TUG- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 27, 1906.
Application filed February 14, 1906. Serial No. 300,963-
To all whmn it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM J. CAMPBELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Rockingham and State of Virginia, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Hame-Tugs, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to hame-tugs, and generally to that class of hams-tugs represented in my Patent No. 595,145, dated December 7, 1897, in which the clip-iron is arranged between leather layers and in connection with a box-loop and a buckle.
The present invention has for its object to economize in the cost of manufacture of hame-tugs of this general character and to insure the stability of the box-loop.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrating my invention, in the several figures of which like parts are similarly designated, Figure 1 is a top plan View with the top of the box-loop in horizontal section to show the stitching. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section. Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken in the plane of line A B, Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a transverse section taken in the plane of line C D, Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a perspectlvegview of thej'gbuilt-up leather portion of the tug before the box-loop is applied for stitching. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the box-loop detached, and Fig.
7 is a perspective view of the clip-iron.
The foundation-piece 1 is constructed of a single piece of leather of suitable shape and length, and the box or trace loop 2 is arranged directly upon the foundation-piece, as will be described. The clip end of the tug is built up by a filling-piece 3, placed directly upon the foundation-piece 1 and extending to and abutting against and of substantially the same thickness as the bottom of the box or trace loop 2, thus forming a continuous and uninterrupted surface from the clip end to the buckle end of the box or trace loop. Above the filling-piece 3 is arranged another filling or dividing piece 4, which extends only to the clip end of the box or trace loop 2. A piece of leather 5 is adapted to fit within the box or trace loop 2 over the bottom thereof and with one end abutted against the edge of the piece 4 and its other end extending to within a short distance of the buckle end of the box or trace loop, and a separate or independent chape or buckle-loop 6 is secured to the end of the piece 5, as by means of a staple 7 (see Figs. 1, 2, and 5) or stitches or any other suitable fastening, and these parts 5 and 6 contribute to form a tongue, as clearly shown in Fig. 5, which corresponds functionally to the tongue in my patent before mentioned, but differs from it in being made up of scraps of leather instead of the more expensive single piece of the patent.
In the present construction the pieced tongue is attached to a separate and independent facing-piece 8 instead of being in one piece with it, as in the patent, and this facing-piece 8 .is arranged above the dividing piece 4 and has a narrowed portion 9, adapted to extend within the box or trace loop 2 over the abutting edges of the pieces 4 and 5 and to which the piece 5 may be secured, as
by rivets 10 or stitches or any other suitable fastenings. The facing 8 may be ornamented in any suitable manner, as by means of a covering 11 of patent leather.
In carrying out invention it is preferable to put the parts 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 together as shown in Fig. 5 and unite the parts 1, 3, 4, and 8 by a line of stitching 12 along their edges, as shown in Figs. 1, 3, and 5. The box or trace loop 2 is then slipped upon the pieced tongue 5 and 6, with its bottom wall between the tongue and foundation-piece 1 and its inner edge abutted against the edge of the piece 3, and then the piece 5, box or trace loop 2, and the foundation 1 are stitched together by lines of stitching 13 adjacent to the inner walls of the box or trace loop 2, as shown in Figs. 1 and 4. The leather portion of the tug as thus constructed is adapted to be used in connection with a clip-iron having the usual eye 14, a
In applying the buckle it is placed within ICC the chape or buckle-loop in the usual manner and the loop bent downward and inward under the projecting end of the long arm of the clip-iron, with its perforations in alinement with perforations in the clip-iron and alsoin. the projecting end of the foundation 1 and the rivet 22 or any other suitable fastening passed therethrough and secured in place.
In the present invention the foundation 1 is made of a sin le piece or thickness of leather, and the other parts, and particularly the facing 8 and the piece 5 and chape or buckle-loop 6, are constructed of short lengths or scraps of leather instead of using a single piece for constructing the facing and tongue and chape or buckle-loop as in some prior constructions, and by this construction the cost of producing the tug is greatly reduced by reason of the difference in cost of the different grades of leather used.
In the present invention the leather portion of the tug is constructed with the clipiron pockets and the open chape or buckleloop and the stitched-in box or, trace loop as a finished article, and hence said leather portion may be supplied with a clip-iron and buckle of any style or finish desired by the purchaser, the clip-iron being readily inserted in the pockets .and the buckle placed in the loop or chape and'the parts securely locked together by simply putting the rivet in place at the buckle end of the tug.
The construction herein shown and described is susceptible of various changes without departing from the principle or scope of the invention.
What I claim is 1. A hame-tug, having a leather foundation-piece, a box-loop arranged upon said foundation-piece, the hame end of the device having clip-iron pockets, built up on the foundation-piece by means of a filling-piece,
a dividing-piece and a facing-piece substantially coterminous with each other and extending to and terminating at the box-loop, and a pieced tongue extending from the built-up hame end through the box-loop, the pieced tongue, box-loop and foundationpiece being stitched together.
2. A hame-tug, having a leather foundation-piece, a box-loop, a leather filling-piece extending from one end of the foundationpiece to the box-loop and of substantially the thickness of the material ofthe box-loop next to the foundation-piece, a leather dividing-piece arranged above and coterminous with the first-mentioned filling-piece, and afacing-piece arranged above the dividingpiece, there being clip-iron pockets on the;
opposite sides of and separated by the dividing-piece, the box-loop arranged on the foundation-piece and a pieced tongue attached-to the facing-piece and extending through the box-loop, the pieced tongue and the bottom of the box-loop being stitched to the foundation-piece for substantially the length of the lower clip-iron pocket.
3, Ahame-tug, comprising a leather portion constructed of a foundationpiece, a boxloop arranged upon said foundation-piece, a facing, a sectional or pieced tongue extending from said facing through the box-loop and terminating in a chape or buckle-loop, and a filling-piece interposed between the foundation-piece and facing and extending only to the box-loop, the said parts being stitched along their. edges and within the walls of the box-loop to the buckle end thereof and constituting a long and short pocket, combined with a clip-iron having a long and a short arm, the short arm entering the pocket between the facing andfilling piece, and the long arm entering the pocket between the foundation and filling pieceand extending through the box-loop between the sectional or pieced tongue and the bottom of the box-loop, and a metal fastening passed through the chape or buckle-loop, the end of the long arm of the clip-iron and the foundation, to secure the buckle and clip-iron to the leather-portion.
4. A heme-tug, comprising a leather portion constructed of a single foundation-piece, a box-loop arranged upon said foundationpiece, a facing, and a sectional or pieced tongue extending from said facing through said box-loop andterminating in a chape or buckle-loop beyond said box-loop, a filling or dividing piece between said foundation and facing extending to the box-loop only, a fillingpiece arranged between the dividingpiece and the foundation and extending to and abutting against the edge ofthe bottom of the boxloop, the said parts being stitched together along their edges and'within the side walls of the box-loop and forming a short pocket between the facing and dividing piece extending to the box-loop and a clip-iron having its short arm entering the short pocket andits long arm entering the long pocket and extending beyond ,said-'box-- loop, and a metallic fastening passedthrough ,the buckle-loop, clip-iron and foundation for securing the clip-iron and buckle to the leatherportion.
Intestimony whereofl have hereunto set my. hand this 12th day of February, A. D. 1906.
