IMPROVED METALLIC BAND POR BALING.
The Schedule refund to 1n these Letten Patent and making part of tha lame.
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, GEORGE BnoDIn, formerly of Little Rock, in the county of Pulaski, but now oi' Plum Bayou, Jefferson county,fState of Arkansas, have invented a new and improved Device for Tying Metallic Bands for Baliug; and I do hereby deel-are the following to be a full and correct description of the. same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- A Figure 1 is a top view of my improvement.
Figure 2 is" a top vie-w of another form of my improvement. v
Figure 3 is a vertical section of the device'represented in tig. 1, of one kind of connecting-link.
Figures 4 and 5 are similar sections, with connecting-links of different forms.
Figure 6 is a top'view of the open connecting-link used in figs. 1, 3, 1l, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and may be used instead of those shown in gs. 4 or 5, in figs. 17 and 18.
Figure 7 illustrates the mode of applyingthe oonnecting-link, fig. 6, to `form the tie.l
. The ends ofthe hoop or band, with its inserted pins, are brought together after being passed around the bale, and the link is laid lengthwise over and across the ends of the band, with the pins inserted. The link is then turned 'to the position shown in g. 1 when its length will be in line with the length of the hoop. The ends ofthe hoops, with the pins inserted, are drawn to the-ends of the link, when one end of the hoop is bent around the slit oropen end of the link. This keeps" the link from turning, and also strengthens and keeps the jointed ends of the link better in place. lhe other end of the hoop can'also be bent inl the same manner, if desired,andthus be prevented from becoming loose or unhooked.
Figures 8, 9, and l0 show different forms of pins.
Figures ll and 12 show different'modes of bending the hoop around the openeud ofthe connecting-link, whereby the open end of the link is strengthened and securely held in place. v f. Figures. 13, 14, 15, and 16 show a mode of using the connecting-links B, fig. 6, without any pinC; the ends of the hoops being bent, as in lig. 15, the connecting-link is slipped into the bent ends ofthe hoop, as shown in iig. 13. The link is then partly turned, to bring it on a line with the hoop, as "shown inlig.. 14, and the hoop, thus united on the side ofthe bale, is drawn around to the top or bottom of' the bale, While in the press, as shown in fig. 16, and the elastic expansion of the bale, when relieved from compression, forces the bent ends of the hoops together, and prevents them from slipping.
Figure 17 shows a bale bound by using a tie on each side.
This is done when bales are intended to be reduced to smaller bulk by a second pressure, for the pnrp'ose of facilitating the second tying of the metallic bands, without injuring them.
Figure 1S is a top view of' a strip of cloth, paper, or other 'suitable material, the ysame length as the hoops, or longer. It is marked, audvles between the hoop and the bales.
The letters D, in figs. 16and 17, are edge views of the same. These strips are intended to prevent the hoops from injuring the covering around the bale or its contents.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the iigures.
The object oi' this invention is to enable larger or i smaller bales to be tied without cutting or injuring the hoops, as no short or acute bends are required, all of which short or acute bends weaken and injure the hoops. v
Another object isto be enabled to draw the tie tighter when the bulk of the bale is diminished, so that when appliedV to bales of cotton or other substance, that require to be reduced by a second compression, into less than their original bulk, the saine hoops can be used, without cutting or injuring them, and may-be used i'or baling many different times, and on bales of different sizes.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use I my invention, I will tion and operation.
A', in4 all the figures, marks the hoop.
B shows the different connecting-links. All of these links embody the saine principle oi' forming the tie, whichis by bending .the ends of the hoops, and inserting within the bends a proper metallic pin, making the pin longer than the width of the hoop, as shown in figs. 1,3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and '12.
The pins, if' liable to work out of place, can be formed with their ends bent, as in iig. 8, making side guards for the links, or they can he made with depressions or elevations, as shown in figs. 8, 9, and 10; or with head and'nut, as shown in lig. 9; or with ends bent around the side of the oonnecting-link, as shown in lig. 10, whichl will keep the slit end ofthe connecting-link from spreading open. Y
Fig-6 is a top view of the connecting-link used in g. 1, which link is made by bending suitable-sized metallic wire, making the opening in the middle of the link greater than at its ends, so as toenable it to turn readily around the prepared ends oi the hoops, and
proceed to describe its construcmaking the ends of the metallic rod forming thelink' meet at or near the middle of' one end of the oonnecting-link, whenits ends may be joined and fastened together by well-known means, or it may be used without any such fastening.
Figures 2, 4', and 5 illustrate a form of connectinglink diii'ering from that illustrated by figs. l and 3, in that the pins G, in the latter are made' of no greater length than the width ofthe hoop, while in the former I the strain upon the hoop,
i they are necessarily longer, in order to rest upon the sides of` the link.
The oice of the pins in figs. 1 and 3 is to attach the ends of Ithe hoop to the link, by means of their. projecting ends; but in the device shown in figs. 2, 4, and 5 they act, by their bulli, to prevent the loop of the hook from being pulled out of the recess, in which it is held by ren-son of the extension given to the loop y the inseition of the pin within it, rendering it larger than the opening through which it must escape, if at all.
lt results, from this arrzin gement, that the greater the tighter the loop is held in the recess of the link. v
Various shapes may be given to the pins, as shown in figs. 8, 9, and 1'0. 'lhey may be held to the hoop, either by reason of irregularities of surface, as in iig. 8, by nuts on their edges, as in iig. 9, or by having hooks on their ends, to embrace the edges of the hoop, as in iig. 10.
The pins may be eut in length just the Width of the hoops, when held oy its thicknessand the pins keep from working out of the hoops by depression on each side of the pin, and the hoop pressed into the saine; or thepins may be made with heads and nuts, as shown in-fig. 9, or the links can he made closed up on one edge, and a clasp or button made to cover the opposite edge, as shown. in figs. 2 and 4, or they canbe made to bend around each edge, like lig. l0.
Having thus full'ydescribed my invention, What I claim, and desire toI secure by Letters Pat-v l. The baletie, formed by passing the bent ends o'r loops yof the hoop A into the link B, and Aholding them there by means of the pins C Q, passed through them and over the sides of the link, in the manner herein described, and shown in figs. 1 and 3.'
2. The bale-tie, formed by passing the loops of the hoop A into one or more recesses in thelink B, through a slit or opening in its side, and holding said loops in the recesses, by placing pins C Within them, and thus giving such extension to the loops as to prevent their being withdrawn from the recesses while-the pins remain in place, iu the manner herein described, and as shown in figs. 4 and 5.l
3. The connecting-link of a bale-tie, having a slit or opening in its side or end, through which the hoop can be introduced into the link, as herein. described, and as represented in gs. 6, 7, 13, andl4.
The above specification of rn y said invention, signed and witnessed at Washington, this 9th dey of March, A. D. 1.869.
