ROPE CLIP.
APPLIGATION FILED r2124, 1910.

JOE R. WOOD, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.
ROPE-CLIP.
0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Jon B. WOOD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Cincinnati, county of Hamilton, and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Rope-Clip, of which the following is .a full, clear, and exact description, reference. being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a rope clip for use in connect-ion with ropes and cables. In the rope clips heretofore in use it is found that the rope or cable frequently slips, by reason of the fact that their construction offers no adequate grip on the cable, or because of the loosening of the nuts on the retaining bolt.
It is the objectof my invention to remedy gthis defect, and to provide a rope clip which will rigidly hold the rope or cable under all conditions.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is an end elevation of my new rope clip. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is an isometric view of the top plate.
The numeral 1 indicates the body portion of my clip, which is made of malleable iron or any other suitable material. The said body portion has a central longitudinal depression or groove for the receipt of the cable, as is clearly shown in Fig. 1. At each end of said body portion 1, and on both sides thereof, are the bosses 22, provided with holes through which the U-bolts 33 are inserted. The bottom of the depression in the body portion 1 may be provided with spiral corrugations as shown in Fig. 1. The depression in said body portion is shallower at the middle of its length and at the ends, and deepest at each binding point, or under each U-bolt, as shown by the lower broken line in Fig. 2. The body portion 1 has con tinuous high walls t4 between the binding points, to serve as a guard for the inserted rope or cable and to keep the same in alinement and the several folds thereof one on top of the other, to make use of the friction between contiguous lengths of said rope, which is of high efliciency by reason of the spiral lay of the rope strands.
At each end of the body portion 1 are the Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed February 7, 1910.
Patented Sept. 12, 1911.
Serial No. 542,372.
tongues 5-5 formed integrally therewith or separately made and attached as may be preferable, and so placed that when turned under, as shown in Fig. 2, the ends thereof will extend bet-ween the nuts 6-6 of the U-bolts. These tongues are of a width amply to fill the space bet-ween the two nuts on each bolt, and when turned down, after the said nuts have been screwed tight, they serve as nut-locks to prevent the nuts subsequently becoming loose.
To furnish additional gripping power, and to hold the cable down firmly against the bottom of the depression, I provide the top plate 6*, equipped with the eyes 77 near each end for the insertion of the U- bolts, as shown in Fig. 2. The said plate is made of any suitable flexible metal and will conform to the lay of the rope as shown by the upper broken line in Fig. 2. It is obvious that no top plate is necessary, however, and the use of my new clip both'with and without such top plate is contemplated.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that a cable inserted in my new rope clip will be held at two separate binding points by individual U-bolts, between the top plate'and the corrugated bottom of the depression, and that a binding force of eX treme efiiciency will be imparted to the fastening afforded by the clip by the in creased elevation of portions of the bottom of said depression, particularly between said binding points, whereby said cable is caused to bend or buckle between said binding points and the continuous high walls by which the cable is held in vertical and longitudinal alinementbetween the binding points.
Having thus described by invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A rope clip comprising a body portion having a longitudinal depression adapted to receive a rope, a series of gripping members to hold said rope in said depression, said body portion being constructed to cause said rope to buckle between said gripping members and continuous walls between said gripping members to hold the several sections of said rope in vertical alinement.
2. A rope clip comprising a body portion having a longitudinal depression adapted to between said gripping members to hold the receive a rope, a top plate adapted to fit several sections of said rope and said top over said rope, a series of gripping members plate in vertical alinement.
to hold said rope in said depression, said JOE R. \VOOD. body port-ion being constructed to cause said rope and said top plate to buckle between said gripping members and continuous Walls Witnesses EARL W. GRIFFIN, CHARLES W. I'IOFFMAN.
