ispecifieation bfLetters.Pat ent.- v t aming. 18,1908:
i I v Appl ication filed November 29, Serial N To all whom it may concern." r
Be it known that I, EDMUND L, SHARPE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Pleasanton, in the county of Atascosa and State of Texas, have invented a new and Improved Package-Tieyof which the following is a full, clear, and exact description' This invention is an improvement in package ties, having in view the provision of a device embodying simplicity and strength, for
- bindingly engaging and securing the free ends of a cord or the like employed intying up the package.
The, invention is more especially designed for the use of postmen in. tying up packages of letters, although not limited to'this particular use, as it will be found of value in ty ing up packages generally.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both views. Figure 1 is a perspective view ofthe preferre d form of my improved tie as applied to a package of letters; and Fig. '2 is a central langitudinal section through the tie.
The tie is composed of a strip of spring metal 5, having atongue 6 at one end, formed by bending the strip upon itself, and an intermediate tongue 7 which is secured to the tongue 6 and strip by a connecting rivet 8, the latter serving to prevent undue separa,
tion of the tongues from thestrip. At the opposite end of the strip 5 from the tongues, an aperture 9 is provided, as also an aperture 10, formed at a substantially central point at one side of the strip. These apertures are for the purpose of securing the intermediate portion of a cord 11, employed in tying up the package, the connection between the apin Fig. 2, in which it will be observed the cord. is knotted in the aperture 10 and looped about the end of the strip through the aperture 9; this connection operating to prevent any relative movement or slipping between the cord and strip.
In the use of the device in tying up a package, the free ends of the d are respectively carried transversely and longitudinally thereabout, and are drawn taut between the strip and tongues, one of the free ends of the-cord being passed between the two tongues and. the other passed between the strip and intermediate tongue, as clearly illustrated, in The introduction of the cord between the strip and tongues is facilitated by the outwardly-flaring construction'of the free ends of the tongues, as shown in Fig.2.
The binding engagement of the tongues prevents any displacement of the cord until purposely withdrawn, this being correctly performed in untying the package by asping both free ends of the cord and simu taneously pulling them from under the tongues, this action obviously freeing the package as easily and "as quickly as if the cord was cut with scissors or a knife. It is apparent that the binding action of the tongue 7 on the cord passed between it and the strip will be augmented when the other free end of the cord; is passed 'between the two tongues,
which makes the chances of the cord slipping between the intermediate tongue and strip all the more remote.
Having thus described my invention I- claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A package tie comprising a strip of spring metal, having means for the attachment of a cord at different points, and a plurality of spring tongues, one of which is intewith the strip and the other made as a tached to said member and arranged one above the other at the same side of said member for engaging the free ends of the cord.
3. A package tie comprising a member having means for attaching a cord at one end and at an intermediate point thereof, and spring tongues, each of which is directly attached to the member at the same side thereof and arranged one above the other for bindingly engaging the free ends of the cord.
4. A package tie, comprising a strip of spring metal having one end thereof folded upon itself to provide a tongue, said strip having-an aperture near one end and at an intermediate point of its length for the attachment of a cord, and a spring tongue arranged between the strip and the first 1nentioned'tongue, operable to respectively bind- V "'tonguearranged between the strip an ingly engage the free ends of the cord therebetween. I
5. A package tie, comprising a. strig of spring materia having one end thereof ent '5 u on itself to provide a tongue and provided wlth' means for attaching a cord, at ssrirlalg first mentioned tongue adapted to bindingly engage the free ends of the cord, and means i In testimony whereof I have signed .my
'name to this specification in the presence of two subscribingwitnesses. Y r t EDMUND L'. SHARPE- Witnessesz;
