TOOL.
To; all whom'z't may concern:
:Be it known that I, HARRY S. Warm, a citizen of the -United States of America, residin vat Yucca, in 'the county of Mohave and t te of Arizona, have "invented new and use ul Improvements in Tools, of which the following is a specification.
The ments in tools and comprehends a tool for removing insulation from "electric current conducting wires and the like.
In carrying out the invention, it is my purpose to provide a tool of this character or other material, may be removed from wires in a simple and easy manner.
Furthermore, I aim to provide a tool of this character which may be adjusted to wires of various sizes to facilitate the removal of insulation or other covering therefrom.
' A further object of the invention is the provision of a tool of this character which maybe conveniently carried by a lineman,
or other party, and which shall be extremely simple in construction,'c'heap to manufach re, easy to manipulate and eflicient and pisltive in operation.
still further object of the invention is the provision of a tool-of this type which shall embody, amongst other features, a wire engaging member formed with a wire receiving groove andprovided with a cutting blade arran ed transversely of the groove and, preferaiily, disposed at an angle thereto to facilitate the removal of the covering of the wire, in the use of the tool; and means associated with the wire engaging member and adjustable to adapt the tool to wires of various diameters or sizes.
With the above and other objects in view which shall appear as the description progresses, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter set forth in and falling within the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawings forming a part'of this specification and in which I have illustrated what I now consider to be the preferred embodiment of the invention; Figure 1 is a perspective view of a tool constructed in accordance with the present invention, the same being shownin the hand of an operator and applied to a wire. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of .the tool, and Fi 3 is a central longitudinal sectional view 0 the same.
resent invention relates to improveama of Letters rum. Patented May 20, 1913, Application mammar 24, ms. Jamal Io. crane Similar reference characters designate l ke parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings in detail, the tool, in the present instance, embodies a wire engaging member 1 of substantially rectangu a-r contour and formed upon one side and for a portion of its length with a wire receiving groove 2 designed to engage the wire in'the use of the tool, as clearly illustrated in Fig.1 of the drawings.
handle 3 is preferably formed integral with I the tool, and as shown in the present instanceterminates in a hook 4 so that the tool may be carried by a lineman in the belt of the latter. 'In advance of the groove 2, the body 1 is provided with an irregular opening 5, immediately above which and project-ing within the surface of the groove, is mounted a cutting blade 6 inclined upwardly with respect to the-wire receiving groove to facilitate-the removal of the covering from the wire, in the operation of the too-l, the shavings of the wire covering or insulation passingthrough the opening 5 from which they are discharged.
To adjust the tool to wires of various sizes so that the depth of the cut may be regulated, the tool is provided with an adjusting member 7 which, in the present instance, is pivoted at 7 in the wire en aging member 1 at a point below and in a Vance of the wire receiving groove 2. The member 7 preferably consists of a block 8 formed with a longitudinal groove 9 designed to cooperate with the groove 2 when the tool is applied to the wire to effect the removal of the insulation or covering from the said wire. An adjusting screw 10 is conveniently located within the body 1 and is designed to engage the adjusting member 7 to swing the latter upon its pivot 7, in the manipulation of the screw, whereby the adjusting member will move toward or away from the cutting blade to enable more or less surface to be presented to the blade, that is the adjusting member is moved relatively to the cutting blade to accommodate the method of operation will be readilv apher 1, at its connection tool the invention appertains, and
jecting within the surface of the groove and inclined upwardly with respect thereto, and an adjusting ber comprising a block wire engaging member and provided with a groove designed to cooperate with the first-mentioned groove, said block being adjustable relatively to the blade whereby the depth of the cut may be wire to be held in operative en gement with the cutting blade in the use o he tool, the forward part of the wire engaging memwith the handle 3, provide a hand being curved as at 13 to lii use the handle 3 is gripped in the hand of an 0 erator and the wire, denoted at a, disposed within the regulated.
