narran stares ROBERT E. L. SIVITH, OF HOLLAND, MISSOURI.
TOOL.
Application filed August 4, 1921. Serial No. 489,793.
To all whom t may concern.
Be it known that ll, ROBERT E. L. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Holland, in the county of Peniiscot, State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tools; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in tools and particularly to tools adapted for farm use.
One object of the invention is to provide a tool which is readily adapted for use in stretching` fence wires, removing staples from fence posts, and for holding plow bolts while the nuts are being secured thereon.
Another object is to provide a tool of this character which is simple in construction, formed of few parts which can be cheaply manufactured, and which can be easily oper-y ated.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the .following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the tool in use for stretching the barb wire of a fence, y
`Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the device in use for holding a plow bolt, and
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the device in use for removing a staple from a fence post.
Referring particularly to the accompanying drawing, 10 represents a metal bar having a chisel point 11 at one end and having its other end bent at right angles thereto and formed with the claw 12. Slidably disposed on the bar 10 is a plate 13, and loosely connected to the end of this plate is the eye 14 of an elongated plate 15. rThe plate 15 is longitudinally curved and has its other end reduced in width, and yformed with a rightangularly extending claw 16. In the opposite edges of the intermediate portion of the plate l5, and adjacent the ends thereof, ape formed the inwardly extending notches 1 ln using the device for stretching a barb wire, the wire is passed through one of the notches 17 and the claw endrof the bar 10 engaged with the opposite side of the post, and then the bar rocked on the post as its fulcrum, with the result that the wire will be pulled in a direction toward the post. By reason of the fact that the plate ljis longitudinally curved, the edges of the walls of the notch will bite into the wire, forming a kink therein, and thus holding the wire securely from slipping.
In using the device for removing a staple, 'the claw 12 is engaged beneath the wire on the post, in such position that the claw strad- 'dles the staple, and then upon rocking the bar baclr on the heel formed at the inner end' of the claw, the wire will be drawn out and the staple forced from the post. F or pulling small staples the claw 16 is employed.
ln using the device for holding a plow bolt, the chisel end 11 is engaged with the flat head of the bolt, the claw 16 engaged over lthe upper edge of the plow share, andv then the bar 10 pressed downwardly to cause the chisel point to bite firmly into the head of the bolt. This serves to hold the bolt in the opening of the plow and prevents turning thereof. i
What is claimed is:
A tool of the class described comprising a bar, a plate slidable on the bar, a curved plate having an eye loosely engaged with the first plate and having an angularly extending claw at its outer end, the intermediate portion of the body of the curved plate having notches in its opposite edges adjacent the ends thereof.
ln testimony whereof, I aiix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
