LWWMUD v Pmwnm July 17, 1917 ALBERT L. ADAMS, OF CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA.
SHOVEL.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 1?, 1917.
Application filed June 23, 1916. Serial No. 105,440.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT L. ADAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cedar Rapids, in the county of Linn and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shovels, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to improvements in shovels, one object of the invention being the provision of a shovel having a tubular reinforced handle-bar and a blade having a por tion for telescopically fitting the handlebar, whereby the handle may be renewed, or shovels now provided with wooden handles may be equipped with a metal handle-bar.
A further object of this invention is the provision of a shovel, which is simple, durable and cheap to maufacture and thoroughly efiicient and practical in use.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a front elevation of shovel made according to and embodying the present invention.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section thereof. \m
Fig. 3 is a section on line 33 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawings, and more particularly to Figs. 1, 2 and 3, the numeral 10 designates the handle bar, which is made from a single sheet of metal rolled to house the two inturned longitudinal edges 10, Which form a reinforcement. The D-handle 11 made from the channel member 12 so that the flanges 13 will fit in the recesses or notches 15 of the handle-bar, is provided with the attaching member 14, which is secured to the handle-bar by the fastenings 16.
The lower end of the handlebar, is provided with the flared reinforcing portion 17 which fits coextensively with the sleeve carrying edge 18 of the blade 19 of the shovel, its sleeve 20 of usual formation fitting concentrically and telescopically within the lower end of the handle-bar 10, as shown in Fig. 8, so that the edges 21 thereof will fit snugly in the angle 22 formed at the-junc:
tion of the bent in edges 10 and the body of the handle-bar. The sleeve 20 is capable of Copies of this uatent mav be obtained forfive cents each, by addressing the being compressed so as to be fitted snugly Within the lower end of the handle-bar 10 thus permitting various sizes of sleeves to be attached to the handle-bar, while the lower end of the handlebar is also capable of being spread to accommodate the sleeve 20. As here shown, one rivet 23 is employed to securely hold the handle-bar and blade together, but this securing means may be a Weld, such as spot-welding or electric welding, where found desirable.
What I claim, as new, is
1. A shovel, including a tubular handle bar, a blade, a compresslble split sleeve carried by the blade'and telescopically connected with one end of the handle-bar, and means for holding the two from separation.
2. A shovel, including a tubular handlebar, one end of which is capable of spreading, a blade, a split sleeve carried by the blade and telescopically connected with the spreading end of the handle-bar, and means for holding the telescoped portions from separation.
3. A shovel, including a tubular handlebar made from a sheet of metal and rolled to provide a housing for two inturned edges thereof, a blade, ani open sleeve carried thereby and fitted telescopically within one end of the handle-bar, the split portion thereof receiving the inturned edges of the handle-bar, and means for holding the sleeve and handle-bar together.
4:- A shovel, including a tubular handlebar made from a sheet of metal rolled to house the two longitudinal edges thereof and providing an expansible member, a blade, a sleeve longitudinally split and carried by the blade, said sleeve being fitted telescopically within one end of the handle-bar, the inturned edges of the handle-bar passing through the split of the sleeve while the extreme end of the handle-bar fits co-extensively with the body of the blade adjacent to the sleeve, and means for holding the sleeve and handle-bar from longitudinal movement.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
