' Apfilatvion mea :rune 39,1911. serial No. 6ae',154.' f-

To all 'whom it mayiconcem) A ment of my invention. Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1 of another embodiment of my p Be it known that I,l WILBER H. VAN SICKEL, a citizen of the United States, residing 'at Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have 1nvented a new` and useful Improvement in Polishers or Abraders, of which the followin is a full, clear, and exact description, lre erence being had to the accompanying.

drawings, which form a'partof this specication.

M invention has for its-'object to produce a po 'sher or abrader, whichima be used for the vpurpose of polishing or arading sur-- faces.

The purpose is to give to such polisher, in addition. .to the regular movement by hand or power, a vibratory movement which will.v

produce a better and more rapid action. Iiigeneral, I accomplish this result by using a' base, the surface of which may act as the vpolisher or abrader, or to which a olishing abradingsurface maybe secured thereto. i I will rst describethe embodiment of my `invention illustrated in the accompanying' drawings and then point out the invention intheclaims. y

In the drawings: Figure 1' is a front elevation, partially in section, of an embodi.

invention. Fig. 3 is-'a view similarrto Figs. l and 2 of another embodiment of my invention. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the apparatus of Fig. 1, ac tingto-polish the sur-- ace of a table. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the apparatusof Fig. 2 actingto polish the surface of stone. F1g.6 is aperspective view of the apparatus of.Fig.-3', acting as an abrader. Fig. 7 isa sectional perspective yiew of anotherembodiment of my invenion.

-a is the carrier for a polisher or abrader,

l having the clipsv or securing devices b for Vsecuring a Ypolishing or abrading surface to the carrier.

c, c are uprights between which is 'the l frame d bored to'form a cylindere 'for the vibrator, which, as shown, is a piston 10 of a'pneumatic tool, which receives its air bythe pipe or hose f from a source of pressure supply.

"9, g1 are -nectedto the uprights' c, o.' A rod h, surrounded by the handle i, extends-betweenv the upper ends'of these rods.

-In Fig. 4, this 'apparatus is-shown acting v .60 flexible metallic uprights con- .on thegsurface of a table. In this igurej represents the polisher, .connected to the 'car-A f rier b theclips b In g. 5, I have shown the apparatus of Fig. '2 polishingl stone, the polisherj'being connected to the carrier, as shown.

In the construction shown inv Fig. 42, the uprights 7c, k, corresponding-to the uprights g, g, of Fig. 1, are not flexible. In this construction, each upright la is connected topa piston, which works in a chamber formed in the handle. This forms air cushions, which relieves the operator fromithe transmission of the vibration of the vibi'ator.

AIn Fig. 3, the uprights 9, g and lc are dispensed with'and a rod r extends outwardly from each upright o, surrounding which is a handle m, having 'a socket n, in which and Vabutting against the end of the rod 1' and the end of handle m, is a spring o. In Fig. 6, I have shown the apparatus of block p.' In this lfigure the` abrading surface, for instance, sand paper g, is connected to the ycarrier a.

' 'In Fig. 7 I vhave shown an apparatus in (Fig.- 3, acting'vto abrade the surface of awhich the cylinder is formed integral with y the base.

By the use of my improvedapparatus, due to the combined action of the movement of the device over the surface to be 'or abraded, and its simultaneous vibration, abetter and more rapid result'is produced.

I have not illustrated or fully described the operation of the-pneumatic piston herel polished shown, as this is unnecessary, its specific 1 construction and operative nections being 'well known. l v
