ISAAC JACKSON, Saddler &c 2, High Street East Glossop, GEORGE WILLIAMSON
Commission Agent, 5 Regent Street Glossop, do hereby declare the nature of our
invention for IMPROVED FASTENER FOR CONNECTING TAPES OR BANDS FOR
TURNING SPINDLES OF MACHINERY to be as follows:-
The fastener is made in the form of a single or double loop or buckle of any
shape having teeth or prongs on each side in any description of metal or other
material the teeth can be placed either on the edge of the fastener or any other
place, a centre bar or bars can be placed across the fastener despencing in that case
with the ends. The connection is made by the ends of the tape being threaded
through the loop or loops of the fastener and brought back or forward and hooked
upon the teeth, these teeth may be cast or produced in any other way and may be
straight curved or bent We claim the following advantages that this fastener
despences with sewing tapes which saves time it is also preferable to hooks
through no metal or other hard substance but the tape itself coming in contact
with the wharl, drum, or pulley it also allows the tapes to be slackened or
tightened without any trouble, we also claim the right to use teeth or prongs for
connecting spindle Tapes.

ISAAC JACKSON, Saddler 2 High Street East, Glossop, GEORGE WILLIAMSON,
Commission Agent, 5 Regent Street, Glossop, do hereby declare the nature of our
invention for IMPROVED FASTENER FOR CONNECTING TAPES OR BANDS FOR TURNING
SPINDLES OF MACHINERY, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to
be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement :- 5
The Fastener is made in the form of a single or double loop or buckle of any
shape having teeth or prongs "or without" on each side in any description of
metal or other material, the teeth can be placed either on the edge of the fastener
or in any other place.

.
A centre bar, or bars, can be placed across the fastener despencing in that case 1
with the ends the connection is made by the ends of the Tape being threaded
through the loop or loops of the fastener and brought back and forward, and
hooked upon the teeth, these teeth may be cast or produced in any other way and
may be straight, curved or bent We claim the following advantages, that this
fastener despences with sewing tapes, which saves time, it is also preferable to 1
hooks through no metal or other hard substance but the Tape itself coming in
contact with the wharl, drum, or pulley, it also allows the Tapes to be slackened
or tightened without any trouble We also claim the right to use teeth or prongs
on Fasteners for connecting Spindle Tapes.
And in order that this our said invention may be more readily understood and
carried into practical effect we have hereunto appended a sheet of Drawings having
the various Figures thereon marked with letters, reference being hereinafter had
thereto. In all the figures simular parts are denoted by simular letters.
Fig. 1. Shews in plan a fastener or Spindle Tape connector constructed according
to these improvements.
Fig. 2. Represents in plan the same Fastener, or Spindle Tape connector in
position on the outside, connecting the two ends of a spindle Tape or Band,
Fig. 3. Represents the same Fastener or Spindle Tape connector in position on
the driving side, connecting the two ends of a Spindle Tape or Band.
Fig. 4. Represents four other different forms of loops, or fasteners which may be
used for the same purpose..
A. A on Fig. 1. are the teeth, points, or projections, cast formed or otherwise
produced thereon. B in fig. 1 is the loop, or opening in the fastener through which
both ends of the Tape are threaded after being so threaded they are brought back
one end- to right and the other to the left (as in C. C. in Fig. 2.) and securely
hooked upon the teeth points or projections A. A. The ends of the Tape or Band
are shown in Fig. 2. at C. C.

We are not aware that Fasteners or connectors having teeth, points, or
projections, and despencing with sewing" having been employed or used for
connecting Spindle Tapes or Bands; and we are further not aware of fasteners
being used which permits of Spindle Tapes being tightened or slackened instantly
without trouble, which is done by simply unhooking one end of the Tape C. Č

as shown in Fig. 2" off the teeth of the fastener A. A. and drawing it up or
slackening it out as required, and then simply rehooking the ends of the Tape or
Band C. O. on the teeth A. A. again.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is,
(1.) As a fastener or connection for the ends of Spindle Tapes, or Bands, a
metallic loop having teeth, points, or projections, as described and shewn in.
Figurés 1. 2. 3 & 4 on the accompanying sheet of drawings.
(2.) The sole right to use teeth, points, or projections "despencing with sewing
on Tape Fasteners" as illustrated at A. A. on Figure 1. of the accompanying
drawings.
