Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 25, 1916.
Application filed September 23, 1915. Serial N 0. 52,221.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CARL A. SWANSON, a subject of the King of Sweden, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cable-Splicing Tools, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates to improvements in cable splicing tools for use in splicing or forming a loop at the end of a Wire cable or rope; having for its objects the provision of such a device which will be simple in construction, economical in cost, reliable, du rable, and thoroughly practicable in operation.
A further object is the provision of means, whereby my tool may be easily and quickly attached and detached from a cable while drawing up each individual strand.
Having these and other objects of general utility and design in view,I have illustrated a practical embodiment of my invention in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is an elevation of my cable splicer in its forward or engaging position; Fig. 2 is an elevation similar to Fig. 1, showing the device in an engaged and extended position; Fig. 3 is a top plan of the device as illustrated in Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is an end elevation thereof; Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section on line 5-5 of Fig. 3; Fig. 6 is a vertical transverse section on line 6-6 of Fig. 1; Fig. 7 is a longitudinal section on line 77 of Fig. 3; Fig. 8 is a transverse horizontal section taken on line 88 of Fig. 1; Fig. 9 is an enlarged fra'gmental detail of the vise end of my device shown operatively engaging an end of wire cable; and Fig. 10 is a detail of the loop of cable at right angles to Fig. 9, showing the lacing of the strands.
Similar reference characters refer respectively to similar parts throughout the several views.
My tool comprises a rectangular frame 11, having a rack-bar 12 on the under side of the top member thereof, and the bottom member serving as a track upon which reciprocates a carriage 13 and a slide 14. Lateral arms 15 and 16 extend outwardly from the end of the frame 11; the upper arm 15 supporting a readily detachable clamp, 17 and the lower arm 16 terminating in a rest plate 18, which may be substituted for a variety of plates of diverse shapes and sizes to accommodate the different sized cables.
A ratchet wheel 19 is journaled to the slide 14, intermediate the rack-bar and the track, and has keyed thereto an operators handle 20. Pivoted to a lug 21, extending from the slide 14, is a link 22, the opposite end of which is pivoted to the upper end of the arm 23 of a fulcrumed lever 24, adapted to approach an anvil 25, integral with the face ofthe carriage 13.
In the employing of my tool, I secure the loop of cable 26 in the jaws of a suitable vise 27 (Fig. 9) having the plate 18 bear against the cable at a point approximating the top of the vise jaws, and locking the clamp 17 to the upper extending section of cable. The strands of the cable are then sprung by means, of a spike, and the raveled ends of the strand inserted in their respective openings in the body of the cable, in the usual way; one at a time these ends are inserted between the face of the lever 24 and the anvil 25, the handle 20 is rotated, which moves the slide 14 to the right, pulling the link 22, thus causing the lever 24 to grip the strand of wire (Fig. 9); by continuing to rotate the handle, the carriage 13 is caused to travel with the slide 14, thus drawing taut the separate strands.
It will be apparent, that in the assembling of the detachable clamp 17 to the arm 15, I have provided a novel means whereby the tool may be quickly detached from the cable and adjusted to take the several strands one at a time and in the most advantageous positions.
Having thus described my invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which it appertains, that numerous modifications and refinements thereof are possible; and I therefore wish it understood that all such refinements and modifications are contemplated within the scope of the appended claim.
VVhat I claim. is
A cable splicer comprising a frame consisting of a rack-bar and track, a carriage reciprocably mounted on said track, a slide reciprocably mounted on said frame, a
ratchet carried by said slide engaging said rack-bar, an anvil on said carriage, a lever pivoted to said carriage having one arm,
thereof approach said anvil and a link pivotally connecting the other arm of said lever with said slide.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my, own I have hereco affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing Wit-- Copies 01 thispacent may be obtained for five cents inch, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents,
