Patented Mar. 5, 1918.
Application tiled July 7, 1917. Serial No. 178,145.
.To all "whom t may concern:
Be it known that l, FRANK f'irnni),4 a citizen ot the United KStates, and resident olI the city oit lJrovidence, in the county of Providence and State oil lthode Island, have invented certain new and usef ul lmprovements in lioom-ltceds, ot which the :following` is a specilication.
This invention relates to end bars tor reeds, and has tor its object to provide such a bar which is formed ot' sheet metal i'olded longitudinally into trough-shape ot' a Width to tit the space between the side ribs on the reed, nleuns being provided at the end ol each bar tor connecting them to the ends ot' the ribs.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features ol' construction, as will be more fully der scribed, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
ln the accompanying drawings:
liigure 1- is a perspective view showing the end portion ot' a reed with my improved end bar connected thereto.
Fig. 2- is a perspective view of the bar lootingn at its inner edge.
llig. 3 is a View ot one end portion of the bar showing' its oppositely disposed loops as embracing1 the side ribs ol the reed.
lfig. 4fis a top view showing the bar as connected to the end ot' a reed and showing the loops ot' the bar as partly brolten away.
llig. 5w is a perspective viev.7 showing a 'portion ol a reed with the end bar removed showing the ends ol the side ribs.
Fig'. tis a view showing,l the shape ol: the metal at the ends oli' the bar as blanlted from Sheet stock.
Referring to the drawings, l designates a loom reed which is constructed in the usual ivay with the ends oit the dents ll secured between the halt-round wooden strips or ribs l2, the ends of which ribs extend out beyond the dents as illustrated in Fig. and have a space 13 between them.
lily invention provides end bars lil ilor the reed, each ot which is constructed ol sheet inetal which is first blanltcd from sheet stock in the lorin illustrated in Fig. t3 in which the ends are slotted as at 18 providing end oortions 19 subsequently bent to t'orm the loops presently described. 'lhe body portion is then folded longitudinally into troufijhshape as best illustrated in Fig. 2, the width ot the bar when finished being equal to the space i3 between the ribs it is to tit, thereby providing a bar which is very strong in construction and extremely light in Weight, which will talte the place of the heavy solid. har ordiinirily employed for this purpose. The ends l5) ot' the side walls oit this bar which extend beyond the bridge portion l5 thereotI are bent outwardly into oppositely disposed loops lll ot a shape and size to receive and inclose the ends l2 ot the side ribs.
llhen this bar so constructed is positioned on the end ol' the reed, these loops 16 take the place of end caps which are usually ernploycd t'or securing the old style solid bar in position.
ll pon positioning` my improved end baron the reed it is only necessary to drive a staple 17 over the bridge portion into the WoodenV ribs thus securely fastening this bar against displacement.
lly the use ot' my improved sheet metal end-bar on reeds oit this character I first do away with the comparatively expensive brass caps which are usually employed for locking the ends ol the solid end-bar; second, l provide a bar which is lighter in weight and therefore, cheaper in construction than the solid end bar, as the labor of bending` the metal is less than the difference in the cost ot' the heavier materials; third, the end-bar is made up of a single piece of metal and may be applied to a reed by a single operation.
lThe foregoing description is directed solely toward the construction illustrated, but l desire it to be understood that l reservo the privilege of resorting to all the mechanical changes to which the device is susceptible, the invention being` defined and limited only by the terms oit the appended claims.
l claim:
l. In a loom reed dent-supporting side ribs spaced apart at their ends, and an cndbar formed ot sheet metal folded longitudi nelly to 'orin an elongated trough of a width to tit the space between said ribs, and means at the ends of said bar Yfor connecting them to the ends of said ribs.
E2. ln a loom reed, dent-supporting` side ribs spaced apart at their ends, an end-bar formed ot' sheet metal 'folded longitudinally into trough-shape of a width to ht the space between said ribs, the stock at the ends of said bar being folded to engage the ends ot said ribs.
3. ln a loom rood, dent-supporting; sido fo?? preventing said loops from being with ribs spaced apart at thai?? @16% :m end-bm! fawn from Said ribs. i0 formed of sheet metal folded longitudinally n testimomy Wheleo l ofHX my signature nto trough-slung@ ofl a Wdlh to Ein the smo@ in preence of a Witness.
@tween said s, 31e stom at t1@ @nds of said bm." being provided with extending sido E RANK STEAD portions bont into oppostey disposed loops Wtness: to engage the ends of said ribs, und means I-Iowfm E.; BARLOW.
