Description

J. A. PHILLIPS.
I CABLE SOCKET.
APPLICATION FILED JUNE 13. me.
Patented fiept 4, 1 917.
J MEsA. rHILmPs-or DRUMRIGHT, OKLAHOMA.
. CABLE-SOCKET.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that" I, JAMEs A. PHILLIPS, residing at a citizen of the United States, Drumright, in the county of Greek and State of Oklahoma, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cable-Sockets, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of this invention is to provide a device of the class specified of such construction as to enable the ready release and interchange of the cable and avoid the present necessity of cutting the cable and babhitting.
Another object of the invention is to provide a cable socket of simple and durable construction, which may be easily and conveniently operated and which will be cheap to manufacture.
Reference will be had to accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and wherein like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which Figure l is a side elevation of a socket embodying the present invention, parts being broken away to show the details of construction.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation, without the outer casin showing the parts in position to be assem led.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the outer casing, and
Fig. 4 is a sectionalview on line 4- of Fi 1.
l teference numeral A designates the body of a socket of the improved type provided with the conventional wrench grips a. The cable gripping or locking means consists of two jaw members B, B, one of the jaws being connected to and formed integral with the threaded cylindrical body portion 0, and the other being formed independent of the body and being provided with the inward projection H, adapted to seat in the pocket of cavity K and abut against and engage the outwardly projecting lug J which forms an integral part of the fixed jaw B. The jaws B, B are formed with flat abutting faces and a transverse slot of triangular cross-section is formed by cutting away adjacent sections of the said jaws, as shown at E, E. Communicating with this transverse slot are theregistering grooves e, e, which extend longitudinally of the fla j w faces and o their enter 1% tremity. From the said transverse slot outwardlythe jaws'are of companion structure, being of semi-circular cross-section and gradually tapering outwardly. In this manner when the jaws are in position a body of truncated cone-shaped formation is completed.
A sleeve or casing F, provided with interior screw threads D and a gradually tapering inner Wallis adapted to fit over the said jaws, the taper of the sleeve conforming to the taper of the outer faces of the jaws and the threads engaging the threaded portion of the said body and independent aw.
A rope or cable G is adapted to be positioned in the opening formed by the reg istering grooves in the jaws. This rope or cable is formed with an enlarged terminal, by turning back a portion of the cable and wrapping same, and this enlarged terminal is adapted to be located in said transverse slot. It will be clearly seen that this transverse slot not only forms a pocket for the cable terminal but also a sight for the examination of same.
In practice the sleeve or casing is threaded on the cable and the terminal of the latter is enlarged as above indicated and placed'in position in the transverse slot, the independent jaw being placed in position so that the projections interlock. The sleeve is then slid over the jaws and screwed into place. By this arrangement a cable socket is formed which enables the operator to easily disengage his cable without the necessity of cutting same and also replace the cable without the use of babbitt.
Numerous changes in details of construction and proportions may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What I claim as new and useful and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is 2- cable socket comprising a body threaded over a portion of its length, a pair of tapering jaw-members, one of which is formed integral with the socket body and extending from the threaded port-ion there of, the other jaw member being separable, the opposed faces of the jaw-members extending in parallel lines and having registering grooves extending longitudinally thereof, the jaw-member carried by the socket body having a V-shaped pocket formed in the clamping face thereof adjaeent e inner eed a th l w said S membriiav'iri'g mug fofiaihgthe ieafiwal'l of the pocket, said 111g also beifig'spa'ea away from the sec'ik't body, the resultant space mutilating the screw-threads of said socket head, the opposed face of the dthr jaw member being cut-away to be com'p'le ln'efitalliy normed 'rel'ative to thefiiec'kt (if the coiiperating jaw, and tereeeiye saidlug whereby an equilateral triangular pocket is the threads on the socket body to pro- "iI'AMES A.
