Application filed August 15,1904. Serial No. 220,826.
.10 (1/7] 1077/0711 if vll/rr/y eon/007%.
Be it known that 'I. VVAL'rnn Il may Eneoon, a subject of the King of (,i'I'QTtI] Britain and Ireland, residing at 2 lteaston street, New Cross,
in the county of London, England, have invented certain new and usel ul Improvementsin \Virework; and I do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full, clear, and exmt description oi the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it a mertains to make and use the same.
"Ihis invention relates to improvements in wirework, and has for its object to simplify its structure by dispensing with the small binding-wire now usually employed in laced wirework.
According to this invention I take tubes of any desired size, material, and section, according to the class and work required. The said tubes 1 provide with transverse slots for the reception of the wires. The number of the said tubes and the distance between the slots will depend upon the mesh required. The wires are held in the said slots by means of wires of any section running longitudinally through the said tubes on the sides where the slots are provided, such longitudinal wires being suitably fastened at each end.
\Virework may be made according to this invention by unskilled persons, and it will be found to be much stronger than when the strands are laced with birnling-wire, as heretolore.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 shows elevation ol a piece of straight parallel wirework constructed according to my invention. Fig. .2 shows a vertical and transverse section of same, taken through the line A B, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows cross-section of one of the slotted tubes. Fig. 4 shows elevation of one of the slotted tubes shown in Fig. 6. Fig. 5 shows end view of same. Fig. 6 shows a plan of a piece ol circular wirework constructed on the same principle as that depicted in Fig. I. Fig. 7 illustrates themethod of making diamond-shzmed wirework. Fig. 8 shows plan of same.
The same letters of reference denote the same parts in all the views.
a shows the wire, which may be bent backward and forward, as shown at Fig. 1, or I may have the wire in lengths.
shows slotted tubes, preferably made of metal.
To construct wirework according to this invention, the wires 0 are placed in the slots 0 of the tubes 7). The said wiresu/areheld [irmly in position by other wires, ll, being inserted in the tubes 6, and these wires (Z may be tastened off at their ends by turning them round the top and bottom wires (1, as shown at Figs. 1 and 2.
At Fig. 6 I. have shown a way of making a circular piece of wirework. In this case I have slightly flattened the tubes on their upper surfaces.
At Fig. 7 I have shown a way of making diamond-shaped wirework. In this case the tubes Z) are formed of a flat strip bent round, so as to form a worm 0r spiral, thus forming diagonal spaces or slots e, in which the wires (1. take and are held lirmly in position by the vertical wire (Z, as before described.
I may have any desired number of tubes 7) (of any suitable cross-section) to a given length of wirework, according to the strength required. I may form the tubes from a sheet of metal (not jointed) and suitably punched or perforated in the ii at to produce the aforesaid slots.
All kindsot wirework articles may be made according to this invention without any skilled labor being necessary. and the wirework so constructed will be much stronger than wirework as hitherto made.
\Vhat I claim, and desire to secure by Lettors Patent 01 the United States of America, is-
1. irework consisting of slotted tubular members, wire strands resting in said slots, and means within said members extending longitudinally thereof adjacent said slots for retaining said strands in such position, substantially as described.
.2. \Virework consisting of slotted tubular members, wire strands resting in said slots and retaining-wires extending longitudinally through said members and engaging said strands, substantially as described.
3. \Virework consisting of a plurality of e and straight retaining-Wires passed longitudinall s through said members and between said oppositely-disposed strands, substantially as described.
6. Virework consisting of tubular members having reversely-arranged diagonal slots oppositely disposed in their surfaces, wire strands resting in said slots, and retaining-wires extending within said members and between said strands, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
\VALTER HENRY ELGOOD.
