WILLIAM T. BAUSMITI-I, 0F BELLEVUE, KENTUCKY.
SOFT-METAL HAMMER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 18, 1912.
Application filed October 19, 1910. Serial No. 587,948.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM T. BAU- SMITH, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Bellevue, in the county of Campbell and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soft-Metal Hammers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being bad to the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification.
My invention relates to soft metal hammers for use'more particularly by mechanics in assembling metal parts in which the head of the hammer is constructed of lead or other soft metal to prevent marring and damage to finished parts which would result from the use of the ordinary hard metal hammer.
The object of my invention is to provide a construction which shall be neat, compact and serviceable, in which the ordinary wooden handle can be used, and when the soft metal of the head becomes worn and flattened out in use, or the handle broken, the parts can be readily renewed by the mechanic without the necessity of discarding the entire hammer.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved hammer. Fig. 2 is an end view, with the handle broken away. Fig. 3 is a central, longitudinal section of the head of the hammer with the handle removed. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the supporting framework for the soft metal hieads, with the inner end of the handle in ace.
The head of the hammer is constructed of a framework or body portion 1 of copper. v
projection. Two of the opposing faces of the copper frame are also provided with an opening 9 for the reception of an ordinary wooden handle 10.
WVhen the handle has been inserted in proper position, by means of a suitable mold placed over the projecting ends, lead is poured into the mold to form the striking ends or heads 12, 13, of the hammer. The lead fills up all of the hollow portions of the copper framework and extends around the handle, and the two striking heads 12 and 13 are thus formed integral with each other, and the entire lead portion is thoroughly united to the copper frame, so that a composite lead and copper hammer is the result. The handle 10 is also firmly and rigidly secured to the head by the lead filling.
When the heads 12 and 13 become marred or flattened out in use, the mechanic can readily remove the handle, melt out the lead and repour the metal as above described for the original construction.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1.,In a soft metal hammer, a body portion of comparatively hard metal cored out to form a hollow shell with reduced projecting ends having central and lateral open ings therethrough, and a homogeneous lead filling for the body portion formed into striking heads for the hammer and inclosing the reduced projecting ends of the body portion.
2. In a soft metal hammer, a body portion of comparatively hard. metal cored out to form a hollow shell with reduced projecting ends having central and lateral openings therethrough, and a handle opening through the body portion, with a homogeneous lead filling for the body portion surrounding the handle and formed into striking heads for the hammer and inclosing the reduced projecting ends of the body portion.
