Description: |
| A. J. Sangster - patent attorneyThis invention relates to a machine for tightening and compressing the staves of a barrel preparatory to putting on the truss-hoops by means of a cable which is drawn around the barrel to compress the staves and held in position until the truss-hoop has been put in place, when the cable is released, and is an improvement upon my Patent No. 239,099. The principal improved feature has reference to a means for shortening or lengthening1 the cable to regulate the size of the loop of the cable, so that it can be adjusted to different sizes of barrels |
