HORACE N. TUCKER, 0F STOUGHTON, M ASSACIIUSET'ICS.
IMPRQVEMENT IN CARPET-STRETCl-IERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,552, dated December 3, 1872.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, HORACE N. TUCKER, of the town of Stoughton and county of Norfolk, in the State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Stretching Carpets; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction, character, and operation ofthe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing which makes part ofthis specilcation.
Figure l is a plan view of the implement, showing the levers connected by hingejoint, metallic teeth, and India-rubber guard, &c.
My improvement consists in the use of two levers joined by a hinge, the shorter one being furnished with metallic teeth to grapple` the carpet, and the longer one with an Indiarubber guard to prevent marriug the side of the room against which it is placed.
I make this instrument by connecting the lever A by hinge to the shorter lever B, as represented at F; the shorter one being furnished with metallic grapple, as indicated by C, and the longer one A with its India-rubber guard, as represented by D. I make the le- Ver A of two pieces, as E and G, and fasten them together with screws or otherwise. By removing these screws I can adjust the instrument to the size of the room; then insert and turn them down, when the instrument is ready then moved on, and operated in the same manner until the whole is completed.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination-of the levers A and B with the India-rubber guard D and metallic grapple C, the hinge-joint F, and the parts E G, when constructed, arranged, and fitted for use,'as herein described and set forth.
HORACE N. TUCKER.
