IGNATIUS BALOUN, OF CANTON, OHIO.
TUG-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 328,449, dated October 20, 1885.
Application filed March 16, 1885. Serial No. 159,118. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, IGNATIUS BALOUN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county of Stark and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tug-Fasteners, which is fully set forth and described in the specifications and drawings.
My invention relates to an improvement in tug-fasteners, and the object is to provide a fastener that is self-adjusting and that will hold or fasten the tug securelyin the desired working position.
With these ends in view my invention consists, first, of a loop pivoted or hinged to or near the end of a single-tree in such a way that the tug may be passed through the loop and onto the end of the single-tree; second, in a combination of a singlelree and a ferrule with shoulder or lug thereon to which is pivoted a tongueless buckle or loop; third, in a combination of a single-tree, aferrule and loop, as above mentioned, and a cockeye, as will be hereinafter explained, and pointed out in the claim.
To enable others skilled in the art to understand my invention, I will describe its construction and operation.
Figure 1 shows my invention as applied to and used in combination with a single-tree, A,- the end of which passes through the eye of the tug B in place of the common hook or cockeye, and is composed of a metal ferrule, O, with a shoulder or lug, D, on one side, to which is attached by a pivoted connection, E, a tongueless buckle or loop, F. Fig. 2 is an end view of the single-tree, showing the tug B as passed through the loop F and over the end of the single-tree A. Fig. 3 is a front view or elevation of the parts referred to in Fig. 1.. Fig.
4 shows another method of applying my in vention to singletrees now in use by the substitution of the plate G in place of the ferrule O, and to which the loop is pivoted. lhis plate may be fastened to the ferrule H or single-tree with a common wood screw. Fig. 5 shows my invention when used in combination with a single-tree and any of the common or wellknown hooks or cockeyes, and' is composed of asingle tree, I, open-ended ferrule J, with its shoulder or lug D, and the loop F pivoted thereto, and a cockeye, K, as shown.
The object of this invention, as above stated, is to provide a selfadjusting fastening, the operation of which is as follows: The loop F is moved forward and the tug B is passed through,
as seen in Fig. 4, and over the end of the sin;
gle-tree or cockeye, as the case may be. The forward draft on the tug B will cause the loop F to move back to a position about parallel with the front of the single-tree, thus drawing and securely holding the tug against the end of the ferrule or shoulder on the single-tree. To unhook the tug, the loop F is moved forward and the tug pulled off the cockeye or end of single-tree and out of the loop.
Having thus fully described the construction and operation of my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
The combination, with a single-tree and ferrules secured to the ends thereof, each errule provided with a forwardly-extending bearing, of aloop secured to each bearing and adapted to operate substantially as set forth.
IG-NATIUS BALOUN.
