Abstract
The present invention is a method for fixing a fur on a pelting board (6) which is temporarily held in a pelting board holder (2), where the fur is put on the pelting board (6), where end parts of the fur are retained in a fur holder (3), and where the fur is stretched on the pelting board (6) to a desired length. Preferably the end part of the fur is fixed on the pelting board (6) by winding with a winding material (13), such as a band. The invention further is an apparatus (1) for securing a fur on a pelting board (6), where the apparatus (1) includes a pelting board holder (2), a fur holder (3) and a band winding unit (4), and where the band winding unit (4) is arranged for moving around the pelting board holder (2).
Claims26
A method of securing a fur to a pelting board using an apparatus including a winding unit for wrapping material around the fur, a pelting board holder and fur holder comprising:
- retaining the pelting board in the pelting board holder;
- placing the fur on the pelting board and securing an end of the fur with the fur holder to stretch the fur to conform the fur to an outer surface of the pelting board;
- and
- activating the winding unit to wrap the material under tension around the fur which conforms the fur to the pelting board to retain the fur on the pelting board in a stretched condition after release of the fur holder.
An apparatus for securing a fur to a pelting board comprising:
- a winding apparatus including a pelting board holder for holding the pelting board during placing of the fur on the pelting board to conform the fur with an outer surface of the pelting board, a fur holder for retaining an end of the fur while the fur is stretched in contact with the outer surface of the pelting board and a winding unit for wrapping material around the fur under tension to retain the stretched fur on the pelting board, and wherein the material which is wrapped around the fur fixes the fur on the pelting board in a stretched condition after the fur is no longer retained by the fur holder.
