Letters Patent No; 97.659, dated December 7, 1869.
` rMPnovEn ARTIFICIAL' -lvrPPLEL Thel Schedule referred to in theselLetters Patent and'making part of the same.
To all whom it (may concern Beit known that I, Hammett D. LocKwooD, of
e Charlestown, in the county of Middlesex, and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Artiicial Nipple; and I do hereby declare that the following, taken in connection with the drawings, which ae-` company, and form part of this` specification, is a description ofmy invention, sufficient -toxenable those skilled in the art to practiseait.`
In the manufacture of rubberknipples for nnrsingbottles, each nipple 'is formed by rst cutting from sheet-rubber` or rubber-compound, a blank of' the propel' shape, then bringingr together the opposite side 1 edges of this blank, the riibber` being in asemi-pla'sti'e or viscid condition, then rolling over the other edge to form the rim of the nipple, and then vulcanizing .the abutting and' turned-over edges in a suitable mould.
AWhen made of a good quality of rubber-compound,
` these nipples Iare enduring, except at one point, namely,
at thepart of the rim Where theedges are united, but at this point the 'nipple soon breaks open by reason of the `stlain to which the rim is'subje'cted in stretching the nipple over the neck of a nrsing-bottle. f
" Once broken vin this manner, the nipple becomes useless, asit will not cling to the bottle.
My-invention has reference to overcoming this de# feet, and I accomplish this` by: placing across the seam,
. under the edge to bey turned over, a small stay or re l inforcement' of thin Icloth, or' other suitable material,
the Stay being concealed under therolledover edge or rim, and being securely fastened in position by theA process of vuleanization.
It is an artificial nipple so made that coustitntes'my invention'.`
The drawings represent a nipple embodying the im'd `provement, and the' manner of applying the stay.

A small piece e of ne cloth, or other material,
(but preferably cloth,) is then applied tothe inside" of the seamat the open end of the nipple, 'as seen at B. This being done, the edge is rolled over, up tov the stay, as seen at C, andthe stayed edgeis also rolled over, all the abutting parts sticking together by reason of the'viscid condition of the mate'ual. The nipple being then vulcanizedin a suitable mould, is` thus 'finished The stay,by the rolling-in and vulcanzingprocesses, 'is embedded Within `the fold, and nostrain orstretch of the rim will open the Seam thus reinforced.
