application filed March 3, 1924. Serial No. 696,717.
ToaZZ whom; it may 0m 7 I Be it known that I, RICHARD LI WADE, a citizen of the United States, residing" at Aberdeen, in-the county of Grays Harbor and State of W a'shingtOm-have invented certain new and useful Improvements in 21 Nail Stripper, of which the following is a spe'cification. v
My invention relates to carpenter'sappliances a'ndin particular to nail strippers dental dislodgment or displacement ofnails adapted for use by persons engaged'in laying, shingles and "generalroofing work.
- The objects of the invention'are toprovide a portable nail stripper adapted to be wornby carpenters and the like so constructed andarranged as to be carried at all times in a convenient and acc'ess'iblepositiongto provide a nail stripper having means for autom'atically fcedin'gnai'l's to delivery position; to provide a nail stripper having means for adjustably regulhv ing a delivery portion of said stripper to different sizednails; and to provide a nail stripper equipped with means for preventing accic'arried therein.
With these eneral ob'ects in view and,
i such others as will be apparent from the description, the invention resides in the novel combination, construction and er rangement of parts hereinafter described and claimed and illustrated in the, accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a sideelevationof a stripper constructed in tion; I I V Fig. 2, a top plan view thereof,

Fig. 6, a detail section of the delivery end of'the stripper, i r
Fig. 7, a perspective of one of the feed fingers employed and v Fig. '8, a perspective of another of the feed fingers'employed. T
In detail, the stripper comprises a member roughly formed in the shape of a shoe and consists of side walls made of leather or othersuitable flexible fabric 1 and 2, and end walls 3 and 4. In the preferred form of the invention, each of the side and end walls are constructed of a single strip of accordance with. the inven fabricor leather joined along the rear end of wall 4. The'b'ottom oft-hepocket is are disposed in parallel relation and are spaced apart adesired distance to accommodate the size of nails employed by means i of shims .18 disposed between the fingers adjacent the rear end of the stripper, as best shown in Figures 2 and 3.
Each of the fingers 5,6, 7. and 8 is provided adjacent its rear end with one or more depending flanges 9 transversely apertured to receive bolts 10 passed therethrough T carrying nuts 11 for clamping the fingers and shims togethertoprovide a unitary bottom for the pocket.: The twocentral feed fingers 6 and 7 are identicalin construction and are clearlyillu strated in Figure 7. Ad'- jacent the rear end each finger isprovided w th a flat upper surface 12 and an upstanding rear flange 13. From the forward endof the flat'sur'face 12 the body of the finger is curvedtoward its outermost end, to
' provide a dished effect for the bottom when the fingers are assembled in position; The outerends of each finger arecurved slightly upward to extend above the plane. of the flat surfacesat the opposite ends of each finger. The finger 5' at one side ofthe stripper is substantially identical in con struction with the intermediate fingers 6 and 'T' just described with theez-zception that it is provided with an upstanding flange 14 along the outer side and across eachend thereof. The opposite sidefinger," desig nated as 8, 1s curved along ts'out'er side.
edge to conform approximately to the outline of the body of the person using the stripper; Along this outer edge and across each end this fingercarries an upstanding flange 1-5 and the fabric or leather strip comprising the "sides and endwalls' of the stripper is secured along its lower end by suitable fasteningelements to the respec'tive flanges 13, 14and-15 ofthe fingers.
Atthe delivery end ofg t-e' stripp'er' the fingers terminate "in the same plane andare covered by 'a' depending flange 156 formed Ont-heend-"'vvall- 3 of the stripper, as best illustratedin Figurel partition inen'iber 17. extends/transversely across the stripper between the side Walls 1 and 2 and is mounted on a bar 20 extending therebetween and rastened in side walls, whereby the partition 11' may be rocked on the bar 20 as a pivot. This partition member is located at the forward end of the fiat portions 12 of the feed fingers and serves in etfect to term a (381th partment at the rear of the stripper tor the reception of the nails to be employed. From the partition to the delivery end or the stripper the feed fingers are, as previously explained, dished and are formed concave in cross section, as best illustrated in Figure 5, to provide for a ready delivery oi the nail shanks into the longitudinal spaces between the finger along the bottom o t the stripper. This conca. formation of the fingers provides grooves along the under face of the stripper allowing for rear y application of the fingers of the user in drawing the nails from the stripper. The pocket is carried across the chest of the user means o1 body straps 19 arranged in any desired manner so as to support the stripper in the most convenient position.
y In operation, the stripper is adjusted in position across the chest of the user, and by reason of the configuration ot the one side 2 it will lie firmly in position. The nails to be used are then poured into the compartment at the rear end of the stripper from which they will be fed down into the dished portion of the bottom of the stripper underneath the partition 17. By reason of the concave cross sectional configur tion of the feed fingers, the shanks of the nails will be guided into the spaces between the fingers and the nails will hang down from the stripper in the position illustrated in Figures 1 and 5. By applying the fingers to the bottom of the stripper the shanks of the nails may be grasped and drawn towards the delivery end of the stripper, from which they may be taken from beneath the flap 16. The upward curvature of the delivery end of the stripper and the depending flap 16 will prevent any accidental displacement of the nails from within the stripper.
While I have illustrated and described certain details and materials entering into the construction and operation of the invention, I desire it to be understood that I do not intend to limit the invention to such as are disclosed, but that any changes and mod ifications may be made therein as will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
I claim:
1. A portable nail stripper comprising a receptacle having a slotted bottom formed of a plurality of longitudinally disposed fingers, and spacing members removably posiills tioned in certain portions of said slots to permit the width of the slots to be varied.
2. A portable nail stripper comprising a receptacle having a bottom formed of a plurality of longitudinally disposed fingers, spacing members interposed between sections of adjacent portions of said fingers in transverse alinement, and removable fasterr ing means, for clamping said fingers and spacing members in assembled position.
3. A portable nail stripper comprising a receptacle including a substantially fiat rigid bottom formed of a plurality of longitudinally disposed laterally spaced fingers, means for permitting the space between the fingers to be varied which increases or decreases the lateral width of thebottom, and the side and end walls of said receptaclebeing formed of a single" piece of flexible material secured to the edge of saidbottom whereby variation of lateral width of said bottom is permitted.
4. A portable nail stripper comprising a receptacle having closed side walls, a bot tom for said receptacle, consisting of a plurality of transversely spaced longitudinally disposed members, one end of said receptacle being open to provide a delivery end therefor, spacing members adapted to be disposed between said first named members for regulating the width of the spaces therebetween, means for clamping said first named members and spacing members in assembled relation, and means in said receptacle for causing the shanks of nails to move downwardly into the spaces between saidfirst name-d members.
5. A portable nail stripper comprising a nail holding receptacle, a plurality of transversely spaced longitudinally disposed fingers disposed on the bottom of said receptacle, certain of said fingers terminating short of one end wall topro vide a delivery end for said receptacle, means for spacing said fingers, means for clamping said fingers in assembled relation, said fingers being curved upwardly toward the delivery end of said receptacle to prevent accidental dislodgment of nails from within the receptacle, a partition member in said rece tacle and means for su ortin said 7 b receptacle on the body of the user. 7,
6. A portable nail stripper comprising a receptacle having closed side and end walls, 7
a slotted bottom formed of a plurality of longitudinally extending laterally spaced fingers, spacing members positioned between said fingers at one end of the bottom and forming a closed end therefor, and a trans verse partition in said receptacle disposed over the slots adjacent the closed end of the bottom to cause the shanks of the nails in said closed end to enter the slots.
