CORE Fo R CARPET-ROLLS.
SPECIFICATION forming part .01 Letters Patent No. 244,593, dated July 19, 1881. Application filed April 2, 1881. no model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GOLDSBOROUGH S. GRIF- FITH, J r., of Baltimore city, State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cores for Carpet-Rolls; and I hereby declare the same to be fully, clearly, and exactly described as follows, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a plan view of the core, showing its slats spread open; Fig. 2, an end elevation of the same on an enlarged scale.
Theobject of my invention is' to furnish a core for carpet-rolls which shall facilitate the winding or rollin got the carpet upon the crankshaft at the factory or in the store of the retail dealer, and furnish the dealer with a means for conveniently noting the amount of carpet cut off from the roll and how much remains.
In rolling carpet for shipment it is usual to wind it upon a rectangular crank-sh aft mounted in suitable bearings, and finally to withdraw the shaft from the roll. Great difficulty has been experienced in evenly laying the first two or three turns of the carpet on the shaft, as the carpet is liable to pucker and wrinkle, and the last quarter or half yard of the roll is cut off as utterly ruined and unsalable by rea-.
son of the'wrinkles havin gbecome permanently set. I obviate this by providing a core con sisting of a series of slats flexibly connected and having a series of catches or pins for holding the edge of the carpet 5 and my invention consists, primarily, therein. It consists, second, in a core consisting of a series of planoconvex slats flexibly connected and provided with catches for holding the carpet; and, third, in a tubular or permanently open core for carpet-rolls, having a tag at one or both ends, as
hereinafter set forth.
In the drawings, a aa a are four slats, preferably of Wood, flat on one side, and having their meeting-edges b chamfered at an angle of one hundred and thirty-five'degrees to the face. The slats are connected together by one or more strips, A,'of paper or textile fabric, secured thereon by tacking, cementing, or otherwise. The outer faces of the slats are convex, so that the four, when folded together, as shown in Fig. 2, constitute an exteriorly-cylindrical tube and having a square bore. A series of pins or hooks, B, is secured in one of the slats, as shown, and to one or both ends of one of the slats is attached a tag, 0, of strong paper or parchment, on which is printed the name of the carpet, as Axminster, Mo
quette, Brussels, the length of carpet in the.
pet is attached to the slat having the hooks B,
and the core is then wrapped about the crankshaft, the rectangular central opening being of a size to lit the shaft. The roll is then wound up by turning the shaft, and the latter is finally withdrawn, and the tag is tucked into the open end of the core, securing it against the possibility of its beingtorn off and lost. As a sale is made the tag is pulled out and the date and amount of the sale is noted thereon, as well as the number of yards of carpet left on the roll.
Much annoyance is caused to the retail dealer and to the purchaser when a particular carpet is fancied and .chosen, and it is found on unrolling it that the roll is just a little short. An inspection of the tags obviates the trouble of taking down and exhibiting a carpet when the amount needed is in excess of that upon the roll.
The pins may easily be hooked into the end of the carpet in a line truly at right angles to the edges, whereby the puckerin g is prevented and the entire piece of carpet may be used. The permanently open core enables one to readily reinsert the crank-shaft for rewinding, and afi'ords an opening into which the tag may be tucked after inspection.
While the above-described construction of the device is believed to be the best, I do not limit myself thereto, as the slats a a a a{ may be of other material than Wood, such as card-board or textile fabric, or both, and. the
strips A may be replaced by wires or cords run through the slats from side to side.
In making the-device of card-board it is, by preference, formed in a single sheet, and is scored longitudinally, so as to bend over the corners of the crank-shaft, and is made wide enough to more than completely envelop the shaft, so that the edges overlap and the ex: terior surface is substantially cylindrical.
What I claim is-- 1. As a new article of manufacture, a. core adapted for the insertion of the crank-shaft [O for carpet-rolls, consisting of a series of slots and having a polygonal interior surface, and connected together and having pins or catches provided at one or both ends with atag adapted for holding the carpet, as set forth. to be tucked into the open end of the core, as
5 2. A core for carpet-rolls consisting of a and for the purpose set forth.
series of piano-convex slats connected together GOLDSBOROUGH S. GRIFFICH, JR. and having catches or pins for holding the oar- Witnesses pet, as set forth. R. D. WILLIAMS, 3. A tubular or open core for carpet-rolls W. A. BERTRAM.
