Within the two prongs c c of the base, is afurcated lever, C, which, pivoted to them, as shown at d, has its shorter arm hinged to a claw, D, all being as represented.
The opening ofthe fork of the lever is such as to enable the claw to swing through it, or the handle of the lever, when the claw is in a floor, to come down and rest upon the said iioor. Furthermore, the prongs of the lever are bent up or formed so that when the handle is resting on the door the axis of the pivot of ONEILL, i
the claw may be higher above the floor than the axis of 'the fulcrum of the lever. This causes the strain of they carpet to act through the machine, and keep the handle from rising oil the floor, thus saving all necessity of a person holding the handle down by his foot or hand, in order to keep the carpet stretched.
` In using the stretcher, the claw is to be pressed by the foot of the user into the floor. The carpet is next to be folded over and introduced between the jaws. On raising upward MICHAEL R. ONEILL.
