Patented Apr. 13, 1915.
STEPHEN PETER, 013 OMAHA, NEBRASKA.
COMPOSITE UTENSIL. l V l 1,135,331&
Application filed April 15, 191 1.
To all 107mm it may concern Be it known that T, STEPHEN PETER, a citizen of the United States, residing in Omaha, in Douglas county, in the State of Nebraska, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Composite Utensils, and have described the same in the following specification, illustrated by the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to composite utensils of that class in which a plurality of constituent utensils, capable of independent functions, are united in a single instrument capable of additional functions.
It is among the objects of the invention to adapt constituent utensils of such an instrument to cooperate in the performance of such additional functions; to increase to a maximum the number of operative combinations of such constituent utensils as compared with the number of those utensils; to increase the number and variety of useful operations that may be performed by a simple instrument of this kind; to increase to a maximum the number of useful functions of the apparatus, as compared with the number of its constituent utensils; to combine advantageously in a single piece of mechanism the functions of a key ring, a pair of scissors, a nail file, a bottle opener, a cigar cutter, a finger-nail cleaner, and a supporting hook; to render an article of this kind convenient in size and shape to be habitually worn attached to ordinary clothing, easy to be manipulated, and simple and cheap in construction and manufacture; and in general to produce a superior utensil of the specified class.
The said drawings, illustrating the best manner in which 1 have contemplated applying the principles of the invention, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a composite utensil of the specified class, constructed in accordance with these principles and suspended by an attachment hook. Tn this view the device is locked together as attached to the person of the wearer. Fig. 2 is a detail, showing an alternative form of the attachment book, which is permanently secured to the wearers clothing. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the same utensil, unlocked and distended for inspection. Fig. 4 is a rear elevation of the same, showing the ring closed, but unlocked.
In this illustrative specimen of my invention, the fiat ring 1 has a slot 2; through this Patented Apr. 13, 1W5.
Serial No. 831,946.
slot may be passed one side of the loop of each of the individual keys to be threaded on the ring. The latter has also a fiat arm 3, projecting therefrom in an approximately radial direction. This arm is sharpened along one edge 1 as cutting blade, is corrugated on one side as a nail file 5, and is provided with a projecting nib 6 for use as a nail-cleaner. To the free end of this arm, and side by side therewith is pivoted the thin fiat spring latch arm 7 having the finger-piece 8. The branch arm 9, divergent from the arm 3, comprises the terminal annular cigar-cutting blade 10, having the peripheral. nib 11. On the pivot pin 12, which passes through the arm 8 near its junction with the arm 9 and with the ring 1, is mounted the oscillatable straight shearing blade 18 having the shank 14, which is armed with the thumb-piece 15 for operating this blade, and is also adapted to open and close the slot 2. In one edge of this shank is formed a notch 16, which holds the point 17 of the latch arm 7, when the ring is latched shut. On the same pin 12 is pivoted the plate-hook 18 having the central longitudinal slot 19, and the round bolt hole 21. The button hook 2 0 has the stem 22, which is reciprocable in the hole 21 and the stem arm 23, which is slidable from end to end of the slot 19 and kept therein by the retaining nut 24, slidable on the outside of the hook.
Operatively the sliding stem 22 of the hook 20, when pushed in, as in Fig. 1, closes the mouth of the hook 18, and thereby locks the described utensil to the attachment hook 25; when the button hook is drawn out into a working position, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, it opens the mouth of the hook 18, and thereby permits the utensil to be readily detached from the hook 25 for use. The blade 13, actuated from the thumb-piece 15, and moving either from the position shown in Fig. 3 or from that shown in broken lines in Fig. 4, coacts either with the blade 4 or with the cutter 10, as may be desired.
1 claim as my invention- 1. A utensil of the specified class, comprising two shearing blades pivoted to gether, a slotted key ring forming the lever handle of one blade, a slot-closing member forming the lever handle of the other blade, and a latch for holding the blades and the handles closed.
2. A utensil of the specified class, comioned blade, a slot-closing member forming the lever handle of the coacting blade, and a guard and latch member pivoted to one blade and engaging the handle of the other.
In Witness whereof I subscribe my name 15 hereto in the presence of two Witnesses.
