BOW MAKING AND ATTACHING MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 17,1914.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J earns A. Bnnno, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Lynn, in, the county of Essex and State of lvlassach'usetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bow Making and Attaching Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to machines of a type commonly known as stapling or riveting machines, although I do not limit myself to the use of machines that actually make and apply the specific devices known as staples or rivets.
The object of my invention is to provide a machine having an attachment which will enable the one machine to be used both for making bows such as those used on shoes of the kind known as pumps and for attaching such bows to the shoes.
To these ends the invention consists in the improvements which I shall now proceed to describe and claim.
Of the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved attachment, said figure also showing so much of a well known form of an automatic stapling machine as is necessary to illust 'ate my invention, said figure also indicating by dotted lines the position of a shoe to which a bow is to be attached; Fig. 2 is a detail plan view and part section 011 line 22 of Fig. 1; Fig. 8 represents a section on line 33 of Fig. 2, enlarged, and representing in section the as sembled parts of a bow which is to be made up for attachment to a shoe; Fig. l is a perspective view of a bow made by means of my improvement preliminary to being attached to a shoe.
Similar reference characters indicate the same 01' similar parts in all of the views.
A part of the head or frame of a well known type of stapling machine is indicated at 12 in Fig. 1, a part of the mechanism which cuts off the wire and shapes it and drives it being indicated at 13. A portion of the wire feeding mechanism is indicated at 14, the wire :0 being fed through a tube 15 to the cutting off and forming and driving parts of the machine.
My improvements consist in applying to the machine an attachment which will onable the machine to be used for fastening to gether the several parts of the bow without showing any portion of the fastenings, said attachment not interfering with the use of the machine for attaching such bows to shoes, after such bows have been first made.
My said improvements comprise a bracket having its upper end 16 secured to the head 12 of the machine, as by screws or bolts 17, said bracket having a lateral member 18, a vertical member 10, and a substantially horizontal foot member 20, the latter being provided with a recess 21, one edge or side of which forms a shoulder 22. A spring finger or plate 23, preferably of resilient steel, is secured to the foot 20, as by means of screws or rivets 2 1, said finger having a clenching recess or recesses 25 in its upper face in line with the plunger which drives the staple. The particular machine illustrated is one which converts the wire m into separate staples and drives them so that the prongs will be clenched in the recesses 25. As best shown in Fig. 1, the spring finger 23 projects beyond the tip of the foot member 20 of the bracket so that any material can be readily inserted under the end of the spring finger and slid into the space between said spring finger and the upper surface of the foot 20. The latter of course is comparatively rigid or unyielding, the spring finger 23 permitting material or fabric, which may be of almost any required thickness, to be inserted under the end of the spring finger so that the latter will become the anvil for clenching the fastener, and prevent said fastener from being driven through the fabric or material that is underneath said spring anvil.
The bow illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4 coinprises a strip of fabric a which is folded about an inner stiffening piece I), the overlapping ends not shown in Fig. 4t having then a strip 0 applied over them, and finally a crossing strip a of bow fabric is wrapped around the members that have been assembled as just described. To connect all of the assembled and overlapping parts of the bow without having the fastonings show through the front or crossing member a of the how, the user of the machine inserts the assembled members with the crossing member a under the spring anvil finger 23, as shown in Fig. 3, so that the free end of said anvil finger will deflect and clench the staple which is shown in Fig. 3 as about to be driven through the bow, after which the bow can be slipped oil? from the spring anvil finger, it being then ready to be attached to a shoe. For the latter purpose, the shoe, such as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1, is placed in position, as indicated in said figure, the attendant holding the shoe and the bow with one end portion of the bow turned upwardly so that the staple to be driven will pass down through one end or" the attaching strip 0 so as to secure that end to the shoe. The shoe is then slipped along and the other end of the fabric portion of the bow is turned upwardly and another staple driven through the other end of the attaching strip 0 and into the shoe. The shape of the bracket which supports the anvil is such that it can be inserted in a shoe, or, in other words, such that the shoe can be moved to proper position to bring the vamp throat in place under 7 the staple driver.
Some shoes may have portions Overlapping at the vamp throat, so constructed that it is desirable to have the bow attached only to the upper overlapping portions. In this case the underlying portions can extend under the spring anvil.
If the bow which is being made, or any part of the shoe which may be slipped under the anvil as just described, has any curled portion, such curled portion will pass over the shoulder 2:2 into the recess 21, so that the pressure due to the driving of the fastener gainst the spring anvil will not flatten out or indent such curled over portion.
Having described my invention, 1 claim:
In a machine for making and setting fastenings, a stapling head, provided with a bracket consisting of an arm arranged to'eX- tend away from the head, a vertically ar- -ranged portion, and a portion arranged to extend back under the head in a substantially horizontal direction to enter a shoe, while the counter of the shoe is permitted to extend upwardly. behind the vertical portion of the bracket, the free end of the horizontal portion of the bracket being substantially unyielding and having a spring finger secured to its upper face, the horizontal portion of the bracket and the spring finger being straight and having a length to present their front ends in position to enable a bow to be attached to the vamp of a shoe.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my 5 signature, in presence of two witnesses.
