I A N. CLARK. Gnmpound Pocket-Implements. I No. 155,790, Patented ct. 13,1874.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALLISON N. CLARK, OF PLAINVILLE, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN COMPOUND POCKET IMPLEMENTSL Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 155,790, dated October 13, 1874; application filed February 20, 1874.
' To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, -ALLISON N. CLARK, of
I Plainville, in thecounty of Hartford and State In my improved pocket implement a single shaft, with an ear-spoon at one end and awatch-key at the other, is pivoted between a pair of spring-jaws, which have curved faces, after the manner'of a well-known spring-joint. The pieces forming the spring-jaws are long enough to form two pairs of spring-jaws, and are rigidly secured together between thei ends, all as hereafter described.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is an edge view of an improved pocket implement, which em bodies my invention; and Fig. 2 1s a side view of the same.
a b designates a shaft, the end a of which is provided with a square hole, thus forming it into the pipe of a watch-key. The end I) of the shaft a bis formed into an ear-spoon. c c designates two pieces of spring steel, which are preferably formed from sheet metal, and struck up in dies into the form shown. These pieces are'connected midway between their two ends to a post, I prefer to make a flat tenon at each end of the post d, and secure it in a hole of a corresponding shape made in the pieces 0 c by upsetting the ends of the tenons.
If desired, the post at may be wholly omitted, and a portion of each of the pieces 0 c swaged inward, so that when the inwardlyswaged parts are riveted together the pieces upon each side of the connection will be open, and form spring-jaws at each end, and the forming the pipe, and the tweezers on one end of the pieces 0 0 forms the handle of the key, and if the end b is outward the device is converted into an ear-spoon, the same part form ing the handle as when it is used as a watchkey.
If desired, instead of a watch-key and earspoon, other convenient pocket-tools may be substituted therefor, and hung between the spring-jaws, as herein described.
I do not claim a swi\-*el-shaft pivoted be tween spring-jaws; neither do I claim a combination implement, consisting of the aggrogation of tweezers, ear-spoon, and watch-key but What I claim as my invention is In a pocket implement, consisting of tweezers, ear-spoon, and watch-key, as described,
the spring pieces 0 c, constructed as SIlOWn and described, and connected together between their ends, thus forming a pair 01' spring-jaws upon each side of said connection, one of which jaws is provided with the swivelshaft a b, all substantially as set forth.
ALLISON N. CLARK.
