NATHAN PURDEY, or PROVIDENCE, .PnNNsYLvANa Lentement No; 108,293, dated october 11,1s7.u.
IM PROVEMENT IN BOX-OP'ENERS.
To all vwhom it may concern.-
' Be it known that I, NATHAN P URDE Y, ofProvidence, in the county of Luzerne and State of Pennsylvania,
have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clawespecially designed for opening and nailing up cases' and boxes, in whiehgoods are packed.
The object of the invention is to obtain a new and useful implement for the purpose specified, one which will be more convenient than an ordinary claw-hatchet nowgenerally used for that purpose.
The implement is constructed out of one piece of metal.
A is a bar,'the outer end of which is spread out or expanded and slitted longitudinally, to form two prongs, a' a, which constitute a claw for vthe drawing of nails.
This claw is curved, as shown clearly in fig. 2, so that the har muy operate etfectually as a lever in the drawing or extracting of nails,
At one side of the barA there is a projectingplate, 15,'which extends at right angles from the bar at the inner end of the claw.
The outer edge of this plate B is beveled, teform a cutting-edge, and it constitutes the hatchet portion of the device, for cut-ting off the ends of the hoop-bands,
chipping olf the proj ecting edges of boards at the sides of a box or case, Ste.
C is the hammer projection, which extends from the side of the bar A, opposite to -that from which the hatchet-plate B extends, and about in line with the center of this plate, (see ggl.)
This hammer may correspond in form to an ordinary hammer-head, and may gradually increase in diameterfroni its inner to its outer end, so as to have a face of requisite area.
D is an opening made in the bar A, to form a claw. for drawing nails. This opening is of V-form, or of sufficient width at one end to allow'the head of a nail to pass through, and gradually narrowing until the sides meet, as shown clearly in g. 1.
This claw will be 'more convenient than the other, in certain cases. The ends of the prongs a a, however, being quite dat, and having thin edges, may be used with facility for prying offboards or the lids of boxes or cases.
This device may be forged out of a single piece of iron, or it may be cast entire, malleableized-and temiered.
I It may be manufactured at a. small costa-nd will prove to be a very convenientimplement, for thepur- NATHAN PURDEY.'
