Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed July 23, 1913. Serial No. 780,788.
paiticularly to a hand operated instrument or tool for removing the eyes from pineapples. lhe object of this invention is the pro vision of a hand operated tool for removing the eyes from pineapples, which has the outer or cutting ends or jaws of the same shaped tire eye from the pineapple and leave no part ofthe same therein. and also a tool this nature which has the innerends of its jaw open so that the eyes will fall out of the tool immediately after they have been removed from the pineapple.
With the foregoing and other objects in view this invention consists in such novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and claimed.
In describing the invention in detail reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters designate like 01' corresponding partsthroughout the several views and in which, I
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improved coring instrument. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is an end view of the improved corer and Fig. 4c is a sectional view through the jaws of the corer showing the manner in which they are formed.
Referring more particularly to the drawings the numeral 1 designates the handle portion of the improved eye removing, instrument which has its outer end 2 flared so as to form a convenient grip for the erson using the instrument. Thev inner end of the handle portion ljwhich handle is constructed of sheet metal is bent and curved upon itself forming a hollow spoon shaped jaw 3. The handle 1 of; the coring instrument has a slot 4 formed intermediate its outer flared end 2 and portion 3 which is formed upon the inner end and the slot 4 has seated therein the end 5 of the shank portion Got a second so as to engage and remove the enthe spoon shapedspoon shaped jaw 7. The end 5 of the shank (3 is held in place and the jaws 8 and 7 are pivotally connected by meansoi a pin or rivet S which is inserted through the sides of the handle 1 and through the end 5 of the shank 6. The spring 10 is coiled about the pin 8 as at 11 and has its end 12 seated in an opening in the shank 6 of the jaw 7 and its end 13 extending through an opening 14: formed in the jaw 3. The spring 10 is coiled between. the pin 8 in such amanner that it will hold the jaws 3 and 7 apart at all times The jaws 3 and 7 are slightly enlarged as at 15 and shaped so as to efliciently engage the eye 01 a pineapple and encompass the entire Patented J my 11.1%16.
eye and have their pointed ends 16 sharpened and curved inwardly as is clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 3 of the drawings so as to .cut-rtl'ie eye from the pineapples whenthe points of the jaws 3 and 7 have been forced into the pineapple.
For removing the eyes from a pineapple the jaws 3 and 7 are forced into the pineapple (not shown) so that an eye (not shown) of the same is" between the two aws. When the jaws have been forced into the pineapple the desired distance they are pressed togetherby manual power and the pressing together of the jaws will cut the eye from the pineapple and as the rear ends of the spoon shaped jaws 8 and '7 are open as is clearly shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings the eye will immediately tall from between the jaws and no extra motion will be necessary for removing the eyes from the jaw.
In practical fields certain minor features of construction, combination and arrange ment of parts may necessitate alterations to which the patentee is entitled provided such alterations are comprehended within the scope of'what is claimed.
What is claimed is j 1. In an eye remover for fruits or vegetables, a pair of semi-ovoid pivoted jaws provided with bulged sides. the free ex tremities of said jaws being broadened adj acent the points thereof, each of said jaws having an aperture therethrough, and a means trained intermediate its ends around the pivotcf the jaws, the ends of which means pass through said apertures and en: gage with the outer face of the jaws to normally hold the jaws in spaced relation.
2. A fruit or vegetable eye remover comprising a .WhlCh are constructed to a, central partition dividing prisifig a pair'of pivotaily connected jaws provide a p11? rality of complemerital guideways longitudinal' thereof when the jaws are in a closed position.
3. A' fruit-0i vegetable eye remover c0m pair of semi-ovoid pivotally co'n nested jaws," each of which is provided with the jaws intO compartments,- thus forming elliptical pessageways when the jaws are closed. and
Laecpu 1 means secured through zq iertnres in the jaws and trained about the pivotal emmcc-- tion of the jaws t0 hold them. normally spaced apart. 15') In. testimony whereof I afi'ix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
