STAPLE-PLIERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 14, 1918.
Application filed June 12, 1916. Serial No. 103,094.
To all whom 2'25 may concern.
Be it known that 1, J AMES W. lVALKER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Sioux City, in the county of lVoodbury and the State of Iowa, have invented a cer tain new and useful Improvement in Staple- Pliers, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to means for clenching staples.
The invention has for its primary object the production of an improved means for clenching staples.
Another object of the invention is the production of a tool particularly adapted for clenching staples in metal fence-posts.
A further object of the invention is the production of a tool adapted to either clench staples, or straighten clenched staples sufficiently to permit their removal.
A still further object of the invention is the production of a. simple staple-clenching tool inexpensive in construction and requiring but a minimum of power to operate.
With these and other objects in view, the invention, consisting in the construction, combination and novel arrangement of parts, will be fully understood from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this application, and in which like characters of reference indicate correspond ing parts throughout the several views, of which,
Figure 1 is a plan of the preferred embodiment of the invention, as when applied to clench a staple in a steel fence-post;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, in closed position aft-er clenching the staple, one of the jaws and the post being cut away.
Fig. 3 is an inverted plan of the tool;
Fig. at is an end elevation of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a plan of the tool applied as a wire-stretcher Fig. 6 is a front elevation of the headengaging jaw; and
Fig. 7 is a horizontal section of the same.
Although I have illustrated and hereinafter described the preferred embodlment of the invention I would not be understood as being limited to the specific structure chosen for illustration, for various alterations in the details of construction and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined in the appended claims.
Referring, now, to the illustrations, the tool is provided with pivoted handles, 8 and 9. The handle, 8, is formed with a lateral jaw, 10, preferably having a head, or enlarged end, 11, and the handle, 9, is formed with a. lateral part, 12, oppositely disposed to the jaw, 10, and fulcrumed, as at 13, to the handle, 8.
The handle, 9, has a portion, 14, extending beyond the jaw, 10, and provided on its side with a staple-spreading head 15, preferably a cylinder normally extending substantially inparallelism with a jaw, 10, and somewhat greater in diameter than the distance between the points of the staples.
The head is preferably provided'with a broad circumferential groove, 16, which serves to prevent lateral displacment of the points of the staples when the tool is applied, as will presently appear.
The face of the enlarged part of the jaw, 10, is preferably inclined at an angle, so that when the tool is opened, as in Fig. 1, the said face will be substantially parallel with the head, 15.
In the face of the jaw portion, 11, is a depress-ion, 17, preferably so formed that it gradually increases in depth from a point adj acent the end of the jaw, toward the fulcrum, and terminates rather abruptly to afford a shoulder, 18.
The portion of the face between the depression and the extreme end of the jaw is provided with a longitudinal notch 19.
The handles are preferably oppositely offset, in order that their grips will be in the same plane to afford convenient operation.
One of the handles may be formed with a claw, 20, for drawing nails, staples, etc; and the other formed with a screw-driver blade, 21.
The handle, 8, is formed with a cutting ear, 22, which coacts with a similar oppositely-disposed member, 23, on the companion handle, to cut wire.
On the extended handle portion, 14, is a stud, 24, between which and a depression, 25, in the jaw, 10, a wire may be gripped.
When used to stretch fence wire, the heel of the jaw, 15, is engaged against the fence-post and the wire gripped as above described. Power is then applied to the o stapling a vvire to a post, a staple 1S first placed over the ivire and through the met as usual. The tool is then applied from the side of the post adjacent the Wire, with the handle, 9, disposed at right angles thereto and -with the extended portion, i l adjacentthe edge ot the p that the clenching head, 15, will he in a position to enter between and spread the prongs ot' the staple. The handle, 8, is then moved laterally to admit the head of the staple into the depression of the jaw, it), all as clearly presented in Fig. l. The are then forced together, s Lovvn in i 2, Whereupon the jaws coaot in forcing the staple through the post and bending the hrongs thereof laterally.
To snl'liciently straighten the prongs of a staple thus clenched, to permit its e ooval,
is only nec'esary to grip the pron between the an, 15, and t 1e notch, 19, or the companion iaiv, and force the pron each other by )l'QSrl: on H The head 15, adapted t hannner peen.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim new and desire to secure hf? Letters Patent of the United States, is,-
1. ln device of the class describe/ 7 staple spreading ineniher coinprisinga cylinder greater in diameter than the Width oi? the staple and having a grooved peri her to receive the prongs ot the staple.
in staple s tting tool, 1 pair of relatively niovahle handles, a part on one handle e so the head of a sta le, and
a -Jlindrical part on the other handle, having a peripherally grooved portion, said parts being movable relatively toward and from each other by movement of the handles, said cylindrical partheing greater in client eter than the width of the staple, and the ":oov d portion being adapted to enter between and thereby spread the staple prongs whens-aid parts are'inoved relatively toward each other.
:J. In a stapling tool, a pair of pivoted handles, and vs extending laterally from the handles and movable toward and from each other, the face of one of the in is having a depression to receive the head off a staple and the other of said jaws being adapted to bend the prongs ot' the staple when jaws are moved relatively toward each other, the end of said first-described jaw being notched to receive one of the staple prongs to facilitate straightening of the prongs by engaging them between the jaws.
i. In a staplingtool, pair of pivoted handles having jaws thereon movable toward and from each other, one of said ja'vs being engageahle with the head ot' a staple and the other operable to spread the staple prong when the jaws are moved relatively toward each other, the end of one of the jaws being provided ith a longitudinal notch to receive one or the prongs to facilitate straightening the prongs by engaging them between the in a stapling tool, a pair of pivoted s, a lateral jaw on one handle adapted L go the head of a staple, and a convex jaw on the other handle, movable i toward and from said irrt jaw 1 eripherally-grooved portion oiera ole to spread the prongs of a staple.
In testimony whereof l have hereunto setlland.
