RAZOR STROP.
Application filed February 2, 1823. SerialgNo. G16,547.
To all whom it'may conoem:
Be it known that I, JOHN W. SHEPARD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Tucson, in the county of Pimaand State of Arizona, have invented a new and Improved Razor Strop, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description. V
This invention relates to razor strops which may be used for an ordinary razor but which is particularly adapted for stropping safety razors.
The object of the invention is to provide an improved simplified construction of strop which may be readily held in operative position by one hand while the other hand manipulates the razor[ A further object of the invention is to provide an improved form of strop arranged with supporting or retaining cup members at each end articulated to the stropping structure so as to be engaged by the thumb and one of the fingers of the hand according to the desire of the operator and in this manner held in position during the stropping operation.
A further object of the invention is to provide a strop adapted to be carried by the hand in which a comparatively stiff resilient member is provided to present a supporting body.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1 is a perspective view of a strop embodying the invention, the same being shown applied to a hand.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the structure shown in Figure 1, one end being shown in section for better illustrating the structure.
Figure 3 is a sectional view through Fig ure 2 approximately on line 33.
Figure 4 is a plan view of the spring shown in Figure 2.
Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 1 indicates the body of a strop which consists preferably of a leather face 2 and a canvas or other special face 3 secured to the face 2 so as to make an endless structure. A pair of links 4 and 5 are provided and act as end brackets or fittings for the body 1, said links having apertured lugs 6 and 7 for accommodating the respective pins 8 and 9, which pins extend through bifurcated projections 10 and 11 arrangedon the bottom of the cup- shaped supports 12 and 13. These cup-shaped supports are preferably of identical construction and are, sufficiently long to fitover the thumb or any of the fingers whereby either cup-shaped support may be used on the thumb as shown in Figure 1 and-the opposite cup-shaped support Qnmember used on any of the fingers.
The device, when in use, may be held as shown in Figure 1 though in many cases the support 2'vis arranged on the second finger instead ofthe index finger as it allows a greater stretch. lVhen the device is mounted as shown in Figure 1, arazor may be readily stropped. It will be noted, of course, that either face of the strop may be uppermost so that the operator may secure any result desired. The strop may be used by the hand when in use and when not in use, may be stored space.
In order to assist the thumb and finger in properly supporting the strop while in use, a plate 14 is provided which is preferably of some resilient metal though sufficiently stiff to act as a proper support while yielding somewhat in order to provide a proper angle for the blade. Preferably, the plate or spring 14 is provided with reduced ends 15 and 16 extending into bifurcated projections 17 and 18 extending from the respective links 4 and 5. The reduced portions 15 and 16 are slidingly mounted in the bifurcated members 17 and 18 so that they may freely slide as they bow though these members are sufficiently long to prevent any disengagement while the razor is being stropped.
What I claim is 1. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a strop body, links connected with the ends of said body, and a pair of cup-shaped supports articulated with said links.
in a comparatively small 2. A razor strop of the character de- I scribed, comprising a strop body; and a cupshaped support connected with said body adjacent each end thereof.
3. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a strop body provided with a pair of stro'pping faces connected together at their ends, a link threaded through the body near each end, each of said links having an apertured lug, and a cup-shaped support articulated with each of said lugs.
4. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a body, a link pivotally connected with each end of said body, each of said links having an apertured lug, a cup-shaped support arranged adjacent each end of said body, and a bifurcated member secured to each cup-shaped member, said bifurcated members being pivotally connected with the lugs on the links so as to present an articulated structure between the cups and said body.
5. A razor strop of the character de-: scribed, comprising a strop body, links connected with the ends of said body, a pair of cup-shaped supports articulated with said links, and a comparatively stiff supporting body arranged beneath the razor engagin surface of said strop body.
6. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a strop body, links connected with the ends of said body, a pair of cup-shaped supports articulated with said links, and a comparatively stiff sup; porting member for said body slidingly connected with said links.
7. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a strop body formed as an endless member, a pair of links carried by said body, each of said links having bifurcated members, a cup-shaped support for each link, and aresilient supporting plate slidingly mounted in said bifurcated members.
8. A razor strop of the character described, comprising a body having upper and lower members, said members being connected together at the ends, a link surrounding the ends of said body, each of said links having a lug extending in one direction and a pair of bifurcated members eX- tending in the opposite direction, a supporting member connected with each of said lugs, and a resilient plate slidingly mounted in said bifurcated members, said plate r being arranged between said upper and lower members.
