Application fi led November 4, 1912. Serial No. 729,242.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, FRANK Ron BATCH- ELDER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Worcester, in the county of Vorcester, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Woven Straps, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to gun-slings and other straps having length-adjustment.
The usual gun-sling consists of a leather strap punched with numerous holes at a short distance apart throughout the length thereof, to receive the hook or pin of a An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings, in which latter Figure 1 shows a gun-sling containing the invention, applied to a gun that is represented in dotted lines. Fig. 2 is a face-view of an end-portion of the said gun-sling, with an adjustment-deviceattached thereto. Fig. 3 is an edge-view of such end-portion and adjustment-device. Figs. 4 and 5 are, re,- spectively, a face view and an edge view of an intermediate portion of the gun-sling. Fig. 6 is a view in cross-section on line 6, 6, of Figs. 4 and 5.
Having reference to the drawings, the gun-sling is represented in Fig. 1 as engaged in usual manner with the metal links a, a, which are attached to the gun I), the strap 2 being extended through the said links and the end-portions thereof returned upon the main length of the strap, with which their extremities are engaged by means of the adjustment- devices 3, 3. This form of gun-sling is not material to the invention, and constitutes no portion thereof. The particular form of adjustment-device shown in Figs. 2 and 3 consists of a double hook 4 formed of a length of wire having its end-portions bent around so as to form hooks which point toward each other, the said end-portions being slightly tapered,
and the length of the intermediate portion of the wire being clasped loosely within the bend of the sheet-metal clip 5 which in- I closes an extremity of thestrap and is fastened thereto by rivets 6, 6, 6. The bends of the said double hook are at a distance apart just sufficient to receive the width of the strap between them. The double hook engages with the strap through entrance of its inwardly-facing engaging portions 4?, 4,
into openings in the opposite edges of'the strap. Such openings are marked 7, 7, etc, Figs. 3 and 4. They extendfrom the said edges inward toward the middle of the width of the strap, within the thickness of the latter.
In applying the adjustment-device and that portion of the strap into which it is to be hooked to each other, the margins of the strap are pressed toward each other until they can both be introduced into the space 4, Fig. 2, between the points or hooks 4, 4, and then, after opposite openings or holes 7, 7, in the two edges of said portion of the strap are presented to the said points orhooks, the strap is permitted or causedto flatten out widthwise. In consequence of engagement of the hooks 4*, 4 with the ends of the openings into which they have been entered, the described adjustment is 're- I tained. Disengagement of the strap for purposes of disconnection from the adjustment device, or of adjustment, is effected by pressing the margins of the strap toward each other until the edges have been drawn inwardly from the points or hooks. The precise form and construction of the adjustment device are not material.
In carrying my invention into effect, I preferably produce the strap 2, with its openings v7, 7, etc, in the opposite edges thereof, by a process of weaving, and in a continuous web, which latter I cut up into strap-lengths. The web is woven as a multiply-fabric, preferably four-ply, all of the plies being suitably tied together in the weaving. Preferably the web is solid be.- tween successive openings. are produced by forming separate thickness of fabric, one above the other, at the places where the openings are required. When the fabric is composed of four plies, the portions above and below the openings will be respectively two-ply. A pair of opposite The openlngs I openings 7, 7, may meet within the width of the web, so as to form one continuous transverse opening within the thickness of the web, or they may extend only part-way toward each other and be separated by a portion of solid weave comprising all the plies of the web, as indicated in Fig. 6.
A woven strap embodying the'invention may be made of any required continuous length. It is less costly than one 'made of leather. It is stronger and much more durable'than one made of leather, and is fitted for use in tropical climates, for which a strap composed of leather is unfit. The thickness of the strap is practically uniform, and consequently the strap can be drawn readily through the gun-links, or through other like parts or devices, without being obstructed in itsmovement as it would be if it carried projecting rivets or eyelets. In the drawings, the slight swells at intervals in the length of the web merely mark the presence of the lateral openings.
I claim as my invention 1. A gun-sling or the like article consisting of a narrow strap of woven material of solid thickness adapted to be passed through the suspension-link of a gun, or the like member, and having in an edge thereof a succession of separate adjustment openings extending transversely inward within the thickness of the strap or web combined with an adjustment device having an engaging portion adapted to enter the respective openings.
2. A gun-sling or the like article consisting of a narrow woven strap or web adapted transversely inward within the thickness of the strap or web combined with an adjustment device having an engaging portion adapted to enter the respective openings.
3. A gun-sling or the like article consist mg of a narrow strap of woven material of solid thickness adapted to be passed through the suspension-link of a gun, or the like member, and having in its respective edges opposite series of separate adjustment openings extending transversely inward within the thickness of the strap, combined with an adjustment device having engaging portions adapted to enter the respective openings.
Al. A guirsling or the like article consisting of a narrow woven strap or web adapted to be passed through the suspension-link of a gun, or the like member, and having woven in each of its edges a succession of separate adjustment openings extending transversely inward within the thickness of the strap or web combined with an adjust-- ment device having engaging portions adapted to enter the respective openings.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
