To all whom it may concern.
Beit known that I, Cn'nis'rmn E. 'SiiYUM, a resident of Chicago, in the coiiiit-yof Cool? and State of Illinois, have invented 'ce'rta'in new and useful Improvements iii oops, of which the following is a full, 0 car, and exact description.
The invention relates to scoops, siich as are generall used b grocers for handling Fig. 4:, is a detail perspective of scraper fdr, removing'the excess material from the scoop."
Fig. 5 is a; section on line 55 of Fig. 2. g, is a perspective of the adjustable sli e or carrying the diaphragm. Fig. ,7, is a .detail perspective of a portion of the diaphragm and one of its guides. Fig. 8, is a central longitudinal section illustrating? a modified form of the invention. Fig. is a section taken on line 9.9 of Fig. 8.
The scoop comprises a body 10, consisting.
of a fixed back 11, a curved bottom 12 an sides 13. A hollow handle 14 is secured to and projects outwardly from the back 11 of the scoop. A finger-grip 40 of wire is secured to the backll.
A longitudinally adjustable diaphragm 15 extends across the space in the scoopbody in substantially parallel relation to the fixed baclt ll, and by longitudinal adjustment of the diaphragm, t e quantity of material which the scoop wil hold, may be varied. This diaphragm is mounted on a slidable member 16, which is rovided at its sides with tongues or guides 7, adaptedto fit around the beaded or reinforced edges 18, of the sides 13 of the scoop. A V-shaped stem 19 is secured to the back of slide 16, and is ada ted to extend into a guide 20 in the hollow andle 14,'to guide the slide 16 lon-- gitudinally in conjunction with tongues 17. A yieldlng strip 21 is secured in stein 19 and has an angular end 22 which is adapted te h ege the fixed back 11 to limit the outward longitudinal flioir ment of slide 16, and prevent accidental isconnection of the slide from the scoop. When it is desired o reino'ye the slide from the scoop, the yielding terminal 22 may be pressed upwardly t'o' clear the'back 11, which will permit the slide to be disconnected hem the body of the e diaphragm 15, is slidably meiiiited on slide 16 so that its edges will fit snugly against the b'ottoin and sides of the scoop, ta prevent the material from passin into the space in back of the diaphragm,- and the latter-is held ih such position by' a sprih 24,
which has one or its terminals applied to press the diaphra m downwardly. The diaphragm is held to slide relatively to and on slide 16, by 25 f0 ,med on the said 'shdextending erehha he edges of the diaphragm and fitting against the front face thereof, the back ide of the diaphragm fitting against the front face of the vertical wall of slide16. ,A slot 26 is formed in the vertical with of slide is through w'hich'the' terminal of as 'ririg24 extends, ind said spring extends hrough and holds the diain operative position. Resultahtly p ra the di hragm is adalifitd to slide to and from the bottom of t scoop so that its ed'es will b free to permit the diaphragin to e adji sted longitudinally of the scoop.
eh ofl' set portion 30 of the clamping-rod 27 is pressed toward the diaphragm, against the force of spring 24, the slide 16 will be released and freeto be shifted longitudinally of the scoop-body. A stud 31 is secured to the front of and projects forwardly from the diaphragm to serve as means whereby the diaphragm may be inoved away from the bottom of the scoop against the force of spring 24. Coil spring 24 thus serves to operate the clamping-means for holding the slide against longitudinal movement, and to hold the diaphragm in operative position.
In use, the diaphragm and the slide may be conjointly released, by pressing the thumb against off-set portion 30 of the clamping-rod 27, and by placing the forefinger around stud 31 and lifting the stud upwardly and pressing portion 30 forwardly, and thus the diaphragm and slide may be conveniently and conjointly released, and when held in released position the diaphragm and slide may be adjusted longitudinally of the scoop to vary the amount of the material which will be held therein.
In practice it is desirable to avoid overloading of the scoop so that no more than the pro-determined load will be held in the scoop. In handling material such as flour, it frequently occurs that the material is heaped higher than the scoop edges, and it is desirable to remove the excess of material. A convenient device for this purpose consists of a scraper 33, which is slightly. wider than the scoop, and is adapted to slide upon the scoop-edges, being provided with projecting lips 34, to fit around said edges. In order that this scraper will at all times be readily accessible for use when desired, it is detachably connected to the scoop by means of a spring fastening-device, consisting of a button 35 secured to the front of the diaphragm and a. hole 36 in the scraper.
The spring-button 35, when forced through hole 36, detachably secures the scraper to the diaphragm. When the scraper is to be used, it may be forced ofl' said button and will then be free to be drawn over edges 18 of the scoop and to rediaphragm, and has its terminals 38 pived on the body, a diaphragm carried by and movably mounted on said member, and clamping-means for securlng sa1d member against longitudinal movement in the body,-
mounted on said member and disposed to engage said body.
2. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a member slidably mounted on the body, a diaphragm carried by and movably mounted on said member and spring operated clamping-means for securing the member against longitudinal movement in the'body, mounted on said member and disposed to engage said body.
3. A scoo comprising a body for holding the materia a member slidably mounted on the body, a diaphragm carried by and movably mounted on said member, and clamping-means mounted on said member and disposed to engage the sides of said body.
4. A scoop comprising a body for hold ing the material, a member slidably mounted on the body, a diaphragm carried by said member and clamping-means for securing said member against longitudinal movement on the body, comprising a rod pivoted on said member'and having arms for engaging the sides of the body.
5. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a member slidably mounted on the body, a diaphragm carried by said member and clamping means for securing said member against longitudinal movement on the body, comprising a cross-rod pivoted on said member and having arms for engaging the sides of the body, and a spring for operating said arms.
6. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a member mounted to slide lon itudinally on the body, and a diaphragm slidably mounted on said member so that its lower edge may be shifted transversely of and away from the bottom of the body.
7. A scoo comprising a body for holding the materia a member slidably mounted on said body, a diaphragm slidably mounted on said member, so that its lower edge may be shifted away from the bottom of the body, and a spring for holding said diaphragm against the bottom.

A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a member slidably mounted to move longitudinally on the body, a diaphragm mounted on said member so that its edge may be shifted away from the bottom of the body, clamping-means for securing said member on the body, and a spring applied to hold the diaphragm against the bottom and to operate the clamping-means. 11. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a member slidably mounted to move longitudinally on the body, clamping-means for securing the member on the body, a diaphragm slidably mounted on said member so that its edge may be moved away from the bottom of the body, and a spring applied to hold the diaphragm against the bottom and to operate the clamping-means.
12. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material, a diaphragm adjustably mounted in the scoop, a scraper for removing the excess material, and a friction-device for detachably securing the scraper so that it will be adjustable with the diaphragm.
13. A scoop comprising a body for holding the material and a handle, a member slidably mounted on the body and having hook portions fitting around the edges of the scoop, and a diaphragm mounted to slide on said member.
1 A scoop comprising a body for holding the material and a hollow handle, a member slidably mounted on the body and having guides for engaging the sides of the body, a stem on said member extending into said handle, a yielding stop on the stem acting to limit outward movement of the stem, and a diaphragm mounted on said member.
