Be it known that l, vi/'unimi if citizen of tlie United -itofbes res' Ennis, in tlie county oil liilis ai Texas, llave invented new an nsefl iinprovements in Foocl-Tongs, of Wliicn the toi.- lowing is a specification.
This' invention relates to food tongs an particularly to en iznprovcinent on the tong disclosed Vin iny Patent Number 999,61@ oi August l, 131i. the object oi the improve-` ments being to provide ineans for positively limiting the relative movements of the scoops in two directions.
in the drawing forming a portion this. application and in which like letters ot rei eronce indicate similar parte. in the vie\vs:-Figure. is on eilf f view of ne device showing tiie scoops in their closed positions. Fig. 2 n similar vieni' showing i the scoops opened. Fig. 3 is a side View of the evice showing the scoops eloseii. Ll is a. perspective view of n Jooition of tile devine showing e slightly inotlineii oiin ot scoop.
The device comprises solist .i ially iileniically formed scoops or jai-vs l and 'eli are each of concave-convex forni pref rn'blv and arranged collectively so that tne concevities of t-lie companion scoops are disposed in opposing relation. The jaw l is secured as nl, 3 to :l rod like member l which extends from o manipulating handle 5. This reci is arranged in parallel relation to aA similar rod 6 which is connected as :it 17 to tne jaw 2.
Soldered or otherwise suitably seoiued to the rodA are combined hinge and guide members -8 and 9 which :ii-e provided vitii alining eye portions l!) ilironh which the rod 6 extends,y losing mounten therein for free sliding movement and for rotary nieve- Inent for a purpose to zoe hereinafter elcscriloed. The guide l0 is iovifled with a stop shoulder il with which tile coactig portion l2 at one end of the rod i is adept ed to engage so as to limit tne opened ecljustrnent of the scoops l and 2.
The rod 6 is' provided in controlling proximity to the handle 5 with an notent-ing crank portion 13 Whose arm leiiS adopted to engage against the stop l5 on the guide 9 :so as to hold the scoops in their closed po- Lett rs atent. fatemi-gill oan. t?,
