UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN FISHER, OF ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA, AND CHARLES F. REYNOLDS, OF WEST TOLEDO, OHIO, SAID FISHER ASSIGNOR TO SAID REYNOLDS.
TRACE-SPLICE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN FISHER and CHARLES F. REYNOLDS, citizens of the United States, residing, respectively, at St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and State of Minnesota, and at West Toledo, in the county of Lucas and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Trace-Splice, of which the fol lowing is a specification.
Our invention relates to an improved trace splice and has among its objects simplicity and inexpensive construction, together with greater effectiveness in use.
' In the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a side view of our invention, partly shown in section; Fig. 2 is an edge view of the parts shown separated, and Fig. 3 is a side view illustrating the position of the parts when being assembled.
Our invention includes two splice members A and B, which are provided with hinged leaves 2 and 3. These leaves have rivet holes 4 and are adapted to be placed between the laps and fastened to the adjacent ends of a broken trace by means of rivets passing through said rivet holes. The laps on the ends of the trace are sewed around their edges, with the leaves of the splice between, in the customary manner.
In practice it has been found that the tendency of a trace is to break where it is perforated to receive the trace buckle tongue and that it is desirable to repair the break in such a manner that the trace buckle can be attached at its original position to the trace. With this object in view the pivoted end of the leaf 3- is provided with an eye opening 5 to receive the tongue of the trace buckle. At or near the edges of the leaf 3 and disposed opposite each other are lugs 7 in which are ivot recesses or indents 8. Each side of the eaf 3 has a plain surface extending between said lugs. The member A has one end bifurcated, the arms 9 of which are provided with pivots or detents 10, which are adapted to turn in the recesses or indents 8.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 11, 1906.
Patented May 26, 1908.
Serial No. 311,183.
In construction the arms 9 on the member member B. The lugs 7, having openings for the pivots, produce a stronger andmore durable construction with a less amount of material than if the pivots are provided on a head and adapted to turn in openings in the member A. With this prior construction it has been found necessary to make part of the device out of sheet metal, whereas we have found with our construction that the entire device may be made by casting.
In accordance with the patent statutes, we have described the principle of our invention, together with the construction which we now consider to represent the best embodiment thereof, but we desire to have it understood that the apparatus shown is only illustrative and that the invention can be carried out by other means and applied to other uses than those described.
Having described our invention, what we claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is
A device of the class set forth, comprising, in combination, a pair of leaf splice members A and B, the member B provided with a buckle tongue opening 5 and a pair of lugs 7 having pivot recesses 8 and the member A having a pair of arms 9 spread wide apart, provided with inturned pivots 10 and adapted to be bent inward with said pivots 10 turning in said recesses.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
