Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 2U, 1913.
Application led December 4, 1911. -Serial No. 663,758.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, HOBART F. HAYNES, citizen of the United States, residing at Syracuse, in the county of @nondaga and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tack- Placers, of .which the following is a specification.
This invention has relation to tack placers especially adapted to be used by upholsterers, etc., for the purpose of placing -tacks at desired positions in material and partially pushing or driving the same home, leaving the head portions thereof exposed so that the tack may be readily grasped and withdrawn from the material should it be desired to replace the same at another point.
The tack placer consists of a member having an end portion provided with undercut kerfs adapted to receive the head of a tack and a surface adjacent the said kerfs against which the head of the tack bears in order that the tack may be pushed or driven part of the `way home through the material. After this is done the implement may be removed from the tack, leavingithe same in its position in the material andsubsequently the tackmay be driven completely home or removed from the material, as desired.
For a full understanding of the invention reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, in
which: l
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one form of the tack placer Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view of an end portion of the same, showing parts in section; Fig. 3 is an enlarged side view of an end portion of the same; Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view enlarged of an end portion of the same; Fig. 5
is a perspective view of a modified form of the same.
Corresponding and like parts -are referred to in the vfollowing description and indi' cated in all the views of the accompanying drawing by the same reference characters.
n one form of the invention the implement consists of a rod 1 'bent back upon itself and having converging end portions provided at their inner sides and at their eX- tremities with flattened surfaces 2. The end portions converge toward each other from the return bend of the said rod and at the outer ends of the first attened surfaces the side portions of the rod lare provided with shoulders 3. At the outer portions of the shoulders the sides of the rod are provided which it is to be inserted and partially pushed or forced home therein. By spreading the side porti-ons', of the rod 1 the tack is released and left standing in the said material, or by slipping the implement sidewise it may be removed from off of the head i of the tack. If at any time it should be desired to remove the. tack the beveled surfaces 5 are hslipped down along t-he opposite sides of the head of the tack until the opposite edge portions of the head are received in the kerfs 4,' when the opposite side portions of the rod 1 will spring together and grasp the head of the tack in the said kerfs. When the device is so applied to the head of tack a pull vin the direction of the stem of the tack will remove the same from the material.
In the form of the device asshown' in Fig. 5 the tack placer consists of a straight rod indicated at l having at one end a diametrically disposed kerf 6 and at a point in the vicinity of the said end an undercut kerf 7 The shank of the tack is slipped into the kerf 6, while the head of the tack is received in the kerf 7. A tack thus positioned in the device is pressed into the material and then the implement is moved sidewise away from the tack, leaving the same in the material 'with its head portion eX- posed or projecting therefrom. Should it be desired to remove the tack for the purpose of replacing the same at another point, the implement is placed over the projecting end portion of the tack by slipping the kerf 6 along the shank of the tack and the kerf 7 along the head 0f the same. By giving the implement a pull in the direction of the length of the shank of the tack the said tack maylbe readily withdrawn from the' materia Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
A tack placer comprising a rod bent to a ioop'with the ends brought into Contact with ench other V and suficiently rigid longitudinally to operate :is :i means for starting a lack, while the ends have notches to receive the head of a tack and resiliently hold the same and are beveled on their inner faces below the notches so that the device may be l0 pressed endwise into engagement with a partially driven tack.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witneses.
