Description

IN1 STATES PTENT FFIG.
JACOB KINZEB, OF PITTSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
HtlPRVEIVlENT IN SEAL-BOLTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. ll.l8,2l9, dated March 3, 1874; application filed September 9, 1873.
To all whom it may concerm Be it known that I, J A0013 KINZER, of the city of Pittsburg, county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Seal-Lock, of which the following is a specification:
The drawings illustrate the nature and scope of this invention so fully that a brief description will enable a mechanic to make and use it.
Figure 1 shows the bolt or pin, with its tubular seal attached, as seen iu use. Fig'. 2 is a face view of the bolt or pin,with the tubular seal broken, showing the catch O in a locked position. Fig. 3 is a sectional viewot the bolt or pin, showing the arrangement ofthe spring D and catch G. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the tubular seal E.
The arms B B are made to project from either side of the bolt or pin A a' sufficient distance to keep it from being turned around when locked.
The object of this device is to prevent any tampering with the spring or other portions of the lock, which might otherwise be done.
Fig. 3 shows the combined arrangement of the spring D, catch O, and tubular seal E, forming the lock on the pin. The recess F is formed in the back of the pin about two ,inches in length, with an opening through to the face of the pin A to receive the catch C. This catch is held in its place and operated by the spring D, which is fastened at both ends to the pin A by rivets or in any other secure manner.
The seal, Fig. 4, can be made of glass, iron, or any material which will not yield enough to be forced downward over the catch O without breaking. The one shown in the drawing is made of cast-iron, and is also made to go round the pin; but I do not confine myself to this particular form of the tubular seal. Any tubular form which accomplishes the double purpose of covering and protecting` the springcatch, and at the same time operating as a part of the lock device, will be clearly within the spirit of my invention.
The seal E is made with a recessed opening, h, which corresponds in width to the `width of the pin, and in depth to the depth or thickness ot' said pin and the projection ofthe catch. On the upper side of the seal, and at the upper end, the edge is brought down so as to make the opening h to correspond with the thickness of the pin at or immediately above the catch. At the lower end of the seal the edge is brought down to make the opening l1, correspond with the thickness of the pin below the shoulder z'. On or near the upper end of the seal I also form lugs or projections, R
It', between which an instrument can be inserted to break the seal. On the face of the bolt or pin A I form two shoulders, t' t', the upper one, z', about one-fourth of an inch above the catch C, the lower one, i', about threefourths of an inch below it. I make these shoulders about one-eighth of an inch in depth. The principal object of the lower shoulder is to prevent the insertion of any instrument under the seal E to operate on the springcatch. Now when the seal is applied to the bolt or pin A, as soon as it has passed the catch O, its upward movement is stopped by the shoulders z' i', and the seal operates, as will be seen, as a keeper to the spring-catch O, thus completing the locking device. At the same time it completely covers the sprln gcatch O, and is held in its place by the catch, so
that it cannot be drawn down until it is broken. When the pin is to be unlocked, any suitable instrument can be inserted between the projections It B, and the seal will be easily broken and will drop oi' from the pin.
I claiml. The bolt or pin A, with arms B B', shout' ders z i', and spring-catch C, arranged substantially as shown, and for the purpose described.
2. In combinatipn with the bolt or pin A, a tubular seal, E, arranged to receive, cover, and protect the spring-catch O, by which it is held and prevented from being removed without first being broken, substantially as described. I
3. The bolt or pin A with its shoulders, i i', and spring-catch O, in combination with the tubular seal E, constructed and operating substantially as described.
JACOB KINZER.
