L. RUBARTH. COMBINATION WIRE FENCE TOOL.
Patented'Peb. 23, 1897..

LEE RUBARTH, OF GATESVILLE, TEXAS.
COMBINATION WIRE-FENCE TOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 577,785, dated February 23, 1897. Application filed July 6, 1896. Serial No. 598,100- (lTo model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEE RUBARTH, of the city of Gatcsville, Ooryell county, State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in \Vire-Fence Tools, of which the following is afull, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to combination-tools for wire-fence builders; and it consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts hereinafter shown, described, and claimed.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved tool. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the parts shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is aside elevation of the tool shown in Fig. 1 with the bindinglink removed from the handles, as required to permit the tool to be used as astaple-puller, pincer, or wire-cutter. Figs. 4., 5, and 6 are views illustrating some of the uses for which my improved tool is adapted.
My improved tool consists of two principal parts 1 and 2, pivotally connected by the bolt or rivet 3. The rivet 3 passes throughthe circular disks 4 and 5. In one edge of the disk 4 is a notch 6, and a similar notch 7 is formed in the disk 5. In the operation of the tool the disks 4 and 5 rotate in opposite directions and the notches 6 and 7 meet and pass by each other. Upon the side 8 of the notch 6 is formed a shear edge, and upon the side 9 of the notch 7 is a similar edge. As the notches 6 and 7 are brought into alinement with each other the wire may be inserted therein, and the further operation of the tool will bring the edge 9 upon one side of the wire and the edge 8 upon the other side of the wire, and the continued operation of the tool will cut the wire.
Attached to one side of the disk 5 is the jaw 10, and the jaw 11 is attached to the corresponding side of the disk 4. The jaws 10 and 11 are offset from the disks to which they are attached in opposite directions, as required to bring them in alinement with each other. Upon the head of the jaw 10 is a flat face 12, extending radially from the disk 5, and upon the head of the jaw 11 is a similar face 13, extending radially from the disk 4:. The operation of the tool causes the faces 12 and 13 to advance and retreat relative to each other,
as required to form a pincer. Extending outwardly from the jaw 11 is a hammer-head 14. The points 15 and 16 of the jaws 10 and 11 are substantially circular in cross-section and are tapered toward their free ends. Upon the outer sides of the points 15 and 16 are the flattened surfaces 17 and 18, which are designed to engage the face of the fence-post when it is desired to pull a staple, and the free ends of the points 15 and 16 will pass into the loop of the staple. The arm 19 is attached to the disk 5 at the opposite side from the side to which the jaw 10 is attached, and the arm 20 is attached to the disk 4 at the opposite side from the side to which the jaw 11 is attached. Attached to the free end of the arm 19 is the handle 21, and attached to the free end ofthe arm 20 is the handle 22. The handles 21 and 22 are in positions parallel to each other when the pincer is closed. The handles 21 and 22 taper toward their free ends and are circular in cross-section.
The locking-link 23 consists of a bar of iron having a bore in each end, said bores being parallel and designed to receive the ends of the handles 21 and 22. \Vhen the lookinglink 23 is in position upon the handles 21 and 22, the tool is designed to be used either as a hammer or as a Wire-twister.
The extreme free ends 24 and 25 of the handles 21 and 22 protrude some distance through the locking-link 23, and the wire 26 may be inserted in the space between said ends 24 and 25, as shown in Fig. 5.
The space between the jaws 10 and 11 is substantially circular and is designed to reoeive the handle 27. By operating the handle 27 the wire 26 is twisted, as shown in Fig. 6, until the desired tension is obtained upon the wire. Then the handles may be removed from the loops formed in the wire.
When it is desired to unite the ends of two wires, the end of one of the wires may be wrapped around the end of the handle and then twisted upon itself, thus forming a loop. Then the end of the other wire is passed through said loop and around one of the handles of the tool and is twisted upon itself, as shown in Fig. 4:-
I claim- A combination-tool consisting of the circuhaving the notches 6 and 7 respectively, and said notches having the cutting edges 8 and 9 respectively, the bolt 3 pivotally connecting said disks, the jaw 10 extending from the disk 5, the jaw 11 extending from the disk 4, said jaws being offset from said disks as required to bring them into alinelnent and being designed to receive the handle 27 the flat face 12 extending radially from the disk 5 upon the head of the jaw 10, the flat face 13 extending radially from the disk 1- upon the head of the jaw 11, said fiat faces operating to form a pincer, the hammer-head 14 upon the jaw 11, the points 15 and 16 upon said jaws 11 and 10, said points being substantially circular in LEE RUBARTH.
