REINFORGED LEATHER AND PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMIL WEINHEIM, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the borough of Manhattan, county, city, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Im rovements in Reinforced Leather and the rocess of Manufacas set forth in the following specification.
This invention relates generically to the an inferior quality, it being understood that the expression hide is used to designate both the whole hide or any portion thereof.
As is well known, animal leather varies in character and articularly'in thickness according to the ocality on the animal from which it was taken. The variation the thickness the leather in some hides from one locality toa-nother is so great that but'a comparatively small ortion' of a natural hide is of HHI-fOIIIl thic ess and suitable for commercial usewher'e a uniform minimum thickness is necessar Under these conditions the entire remaining portions of the hide are waste so far as that particular industrfy, requiring a uniform minimum thickness or theleather, is concerned.
It is an object of the invention to build up such portions of a hide which are below the desired minimum thickness and create artithe desired uniform mini- To this end a suitable closely which closely approximates composition, is emplo ed.

leather in its This patina is applied to the flesh side 0 the tanned hide in a viscous state, caused to incorporate itself thereon, is distributed over the surface so that the combined thickness of the patina and natural hide becomesuniform, whereupon the atina is'insolubilized or'solidified in a suita le manner.
In some arts a fabric lining is usually employed as a covering for the flesh side of leather-which leather, nevertheless, as explained above, must have a uniform minimum thickness itself.
. It is also an object of the inventionto combine a natural tanned hide,
originally its extent, ric backing and an intermediate suitable patina so that the comhide, patina and minimum thickness throughout; .In connectionwith this of varyin thickness throughout with a fa filling of a Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed August 7, 1909. Serial No.

mind that the combinedthickness of the patina and natural hide are caused to correspond to the desired uniform minimum thickness for the leather, the fabric backing being itself of uniform thicknessthroughout.
To this latter end the invention contem plates the application and incorporation of a suitable patina with the flesh side of the hide. The word patina is used in this specification the same as in the trade to designate a viscous substance to be applied to a surface. It is distributed in any suitable manner to achieve the eneric object of the invention, namely, to e ect the uniform thickness of a hide. The patina may be applied .directly to the flesh side of the hide and distributed over it. The fabric backing may then be applied to the patinated surface of the hide or the patina may be'first a plied to the fabric backing and the hide subsequently applied to the' atinated surfaceof the fabric backing, fies then the able manner, as by rollers, to distribute the patina in a manner to effect combined uniform thickness.
The above and further objects of the invention will be set forth more particularly in thefollowing claims and W111 be clear from the following specification, which should be read in connection with the accompanying drawings, forming part of this application, in which like characters designate corresponding parts, and in which,
Figure 1 is a diagrammatic in vertical elevation and partly in section of apparatus for carrying out the process; Fig. 2 is an exaggerated section through a portion .of the natural tanned hide to be treated; Fig. 3 is Fig. 2 showin the hide lined and built up'into one o? uniform thickness; Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic view corresponding to Fig. 1 but showing modified apparatus for rendering hides uniform in thickness without lining; Fig. 5 is a plan view of a section ofthe carrier and hide aflixed thereto; Fig. 6 'is an exa gerated sectional view l-of Fi 5; and Fig. 7

The various lngredients enumerated may such as sodium and potassium albe employed in various proportions easilydetermined by experiment but their various proportions should be such as to render the resultant composition sufficiently viscous, at approximately to 80 Fahrenheit, for
itto be spread upon the surface to be pati- I nated. Selections from the first six sets of the ingredients may be. kneaded and mixed suitable vessel under the influence of heat and then one of the seventh set of ingredients should be added and thoroughly mixed.
For proceeding with the process with apparatus as shown in Fig. 1, the trough 1 is maintained full of the desired patina, which may be kept at the desired viscosity by means of heat applied in anysuitable and well known manner. The trough 2 is kept full of a solution of an insolubilizin agent, such as dichromate of otassium. strip of suitable artificial fa 'ric 3 of uniform thickness, which may be of any desired character, but preferably a textile,
such as cotton drill, is unwound from the a and the adjustable doctor roll 10 suitably immersed in the patina of trough 1. The strip then passes by the reciprocating brush 11 which may be power driven and adjusted 3 in for instance, in that manner apparent from mechanism illustrated. The reciprocation of the brush 11 is shown to be parallel to thelength of the stri The strip then passes between shie ds 12 and 13 to one or more pairs of adjustably mounted power driven compression rolls 14 and 15. The pairs of rolls 14 may be adjusted by means of screws 16 to the desired uniform distance apart while it may be desirableto adjust the pair of vrolls 15, nearer togetherby means of the similar adjusting screws 17. At this point attendant, who may stand on the platform upon the patina 21 on strip1 18, feeds a hide 19, flesh- 15 the strip is carried by an endless carrier 22, preferably driven at a speed slightly in excess of the peripheral speed of the rollers 14 and 15, to bars 23 carried-by an inter-' mittently advancing carrier 24. The strip of fabric 3 with its attached hides is caused to drop down in festoons over each end cross bar 23 so that each festoon carries one or'more pairs of hides as indicated. Additional rods 23 may be inserted as the fabric is delivered, whereupon they. are carried to a drying room of any suitable character.
A section of a hide 19 to be treated is clearly shown in Fig. 2. The irregular flesh side 21 is also clearly shown as well as the smooth regular hair side surface 25.
The strip -3 in passin roll 5, is uniformly coate with dichromate solution. The passage of the strip over the heated rolls 7 and 8, together with its passage through the air, dries out the water from the applied dichromate solution effecting a uniform crystalline deposit of dichromate of potassium in and about the surface fibers of the fabric 3. It is desirable to maintain the drum 9- at just a suffiover the doctor I cient temperature to maintain the desired viscosity for the patina applied by the doctor roll 10. This patina is spread uniformly over the dichromatized surface of strip 3, is incorporated with the dichromate and remains there in a more or less viscous mass until after passing through the compression rolls 14 and 15. The compression rolls, which are maintained perfectly parallel one to another first grip the inserted edge ofhide 19 WhlCh is held back by the attendant and suitably stretched. These rolls may preferably be heated to a suitable temperature upward of 80 Fahrenheit and are effective in distributing the patina previously applied to the fabric strip 3 so as to fill up the irregular portions of the flesh side surface 20 of hide 19. This patina,
therefore, forms an irregular layer 21 on,
the surface 20 and on the fabric surface 26 so that the hair side 25 of thehide is parallel tothe outer surface 27 of the fabric 3 and the combined fabric is of the desired uniform minimum thickness throughout and is a firmly secured composite fabric. The heat applied by the compression rolls 14 and 15 and also the exposure to light when traversing the carrier 22 and when suspended in festoons on'thecarrier'24 causes the dichromate of potassium t insolubilize the layer of atina 21 whi has incorporated itself rmly in its /f)reviotis soluble state with'the fibrous surface 26 of the fabric 3 and the fibrous flesh side 20 of the hide 19. The parts are thereby cemented "together in a water-proof manner. After drying, this'oombined fabric is a commercial roduct, it being. understood that the fabric backing'may be trimmed off permanent effecting uniform thiclmess for a natural hide, to accomplish which it is not necessary to provide a. permanently attached lining of textile fabric.

After this has been accomplished the drums may be rotated to cause one of the hides to pass over the doctor roll 5 where its flesh side is coated with dichromate of potassiiim solution. The hide is then passed over the drying rolls 7 and 8 and may be further dried b an air blast upwardly directed against it rom the nozzle 33.

makes a finished surface 34 parallel with It is to be understood that the parts indicatedin this apparatus and numbered simi atina "is applied to it.
Fig. 4 there is illustrated but a single pair of rolls 14-, a fiat top ed table 35 taking the place of one set of to ls. As previously described it is preferable to heat the rolls 14 to aid in insolubilizing the patina applied to the hide. This may be continued by -subsequent exposure to li ht and heat. .After passing out of the rolls 14 the patinated hide may be stripped from the carrier 28 by cutting the stitches 32'and may be carried to a drying room after which it is serviceable for use in the arts.
Figs. 5 and 6 illustrate clearly the manner in which a hide is applied to the carrier 28 for the purpose of effecting its uniform thickness, it being noted that the flesh side 20 is uppermost.
Fi 7 clearly illustrates, in cross section, a hi e the'uniform thickness of which is effected by means of the incorporated layer 21 of leatherfied patina. I z
The composition for the patina described is described as being leatherfied after the insolubility thereof has been effected by a suitable agent such as dichremate of potas-- sium subjected to heat and light. This composition firmly incorporates itself in and about the surface fibers of the natural leather and very'nearly approximates, when insolubilized, the natural animal binder 'holding the fibrous elements of natural leather together.
Although the advantage of incorporating the leatherfying composition with the surface to be covered'wh'le this composition is we soluble and in insolub izing it thereafter 13 fully appreciated, it is also contemplated that a atina may be'emplo ed into which an inso ubilizing agent has een mixed before (preferably a short time before) this we patina is applied to thesurface of the coating and also that, for some purposes, an initially insoluble patina may. be employed.
It .is further to be understood that the patinated surface 34 of the product shown in F g. a 7 maybe recoated, varnished or otherwise treated as desired and as known in the art. Furthermore it is by no means necessary that an endless carrier 28'be em loyed for the pn o e of creating the pro not shown 11% in Fig. Asa matter of fact a discontinuou's'carrier such as fabric of Fig. 1 might be employed. Also in connection with the production of the lined product shown in Fig. 3, it is to be understood that the hides 129 19 applied to the strip 3 may be first patinated on their flesh sides in accordance w th the process set forth in connection with Fig. 4 or they'may be first subjected only to a part of the treatment described in connec- 1 tion with Fig. 4, as for instance, the dichromatizing step described therein. Again,
