WIRE-TWISTER.
Application filed February 6, 1911.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 9,1912. Serial NO. 606,832.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ARLA E. LUNG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Garrett, in the county of Dekalb, State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in ire-Twisters; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ofthe invention, such as will enable other skilled in the art to which. it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in wire twisters and the object of my invention is to provide a wire twister provided with a stationary head for. holding the same in engagement with the wire. And a further'object is to provide a simple, durable, easy acting and inexpensive tool of the character described.
Vith these and other objects in view my invention will be hereinafter more fully shown and described and then specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings which show a preferred embodiment of my invention, and in which similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout, Figure 1 is a side elevation of my device Fig. 2 is an end'elevation thereof. Fig. 3 is a vertical section through the line 33 of Fig. 2.
Referring more specifically to the drawings my invention consists of the shaft 1 rotatably mounted in the sleeve 2 and having a beveled gear 3 keyed to one end thereof.
The stationary head of my device consists primarily of the split tube 4 as best shown in Fig. 3; and this head is secured to the sleeve 2 by means of the arms 5 and the collar 6 said arms and collar being preferably formed integrally with the head. One end of the head 4 is provided with an outturned flange 7, and a split sleeve 8 is rotatably mounted about the head 4 bearing against the said flange 7. A bevel gear 9 is integral with or secured in any preferred manner to this split sleeve 8, said bevel gear 9 being so positioned as to mesh with the bevel gear 3, the outer face of said gear being provided with an annular recess adapted to receive the flange 7 of the split head. A disk 10 having a radial slot 12 is secured to the outer face of the bevel gear 9, the slot 12 means 11. As best shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings the inner face of this disk bears against the outer face of the flange 7 and so maintains the latter in the recess of the gear. This disk 10 is provided near its edge with the outwardly extending diverging studs 14, one upon either side of the slot 12.
The free end of the shaft 1 is squared and provided with any suitable actuating means as the crank 15.
In operation the crank 15 is revolved until the slots 12 and 13 register with the slot in the split head 4, when the device is placed against the wire as shown in Fig. 1, with the free end of the wire engaged by one of the lugs 14. Upon turning the crank 15 it will be seen that the head 4 which supports the instrument against the wire will remain stationary, while the bevel gear 9 and the plate 10 will be revolved, thereby twisting the wire.
The braces 5 not only serve to support the head in proper position with respect to the driving shaft 1 but also as a guard for the bevel gears 3 and 9.
Supporting heads of similar devices have heretofore revolved with the twisting member, and for that reason have been unsatisfactory. It will be seen from the above that the use of my peculiarly constructed support does away with this difliculty.
What I claim is:
1. A device of the character described, comprising a split tubular head, an outwardly extending flange upon one end of said head, a split sleeve rotatably mounted upon said head and bearing against said flange, a bevel gear integral with said sleeve and provided with a radial slot, a disk secured to said bevel gear and having a radial slot registering with the slot of the bevel gear, wire-engaging lugs carried by said disk, and means carried by said head for rotating said bevel gear and disk.
2. A device of the character described, comprising a split tubular head one end with an outwardly extending, flange, a bevel head and provided with an annular recess in its outer face in which is seated the flange of said head, a disk secured to the outer face of provided at gear rotatively mounted upon said said gear and bearing against the outer face of said flange, said bevel gear and disk being provided each With a radial slot, the slot of one registering With that of the other, means carried by said disk for engaging the Wire, and means carried by said head for rotating said bevel gear and disk.
In testimony whereof, I afiix my signature, 1n presence of two wltnesses- ARLA E. LUNG.
