ASSEIIIBLING TOOL FOR AUTOFIOBILE SPRINGS.
Application filed January 29, 1926.
This invention relates to a tool for a sembling and removing spring hangers in the front and rear springs of Ford automobiles and has for an object to provide a construction which may be quickly applied and removed and which will easily move the spring and hold the same in proper position for receiving the hangers.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved tool of simple construction with only one moving part, the arrangement being such that the tool may be quickly applied to the perch of the automobile and to the spring and as quickly removed after the hanger has been applied.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a fragmentary view showing the rear axle housing, perch and associated parts of a Ford automobile together with a tool embodying the invention shown in position ready to move the spring so as to apply the hanger.
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 but showing the parts moved to their operated position with the hanger in place.
Figure 8 is a detail perspective view of the tool shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the tool shown in Figure 3.
Figure 5 is a fragmentary view showing part of the front axle, one of the front perches and associated parts, together with a tool embodying the invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawings by numerals, 1 indicates the rear axle housing of a Ford automobile and connected to this is the usual perch 2. Associated with the perch 2 is the usual spring 3 having an eye 4 co-acting with the eye 5 on the perch 2. The tool 6 is shown applied to the perch of a spring ready to move the eye 1 to such a position as to readily receive the hanger 7 as shown in Figure 9. It will be noted from Figure 1 that part of the tool is hooked over the eye 5 and part under the spring 3 back of eye 4; so that when the tool is swung with the eye 5 as a fulcrum, spring 3 would move to the proper position for permitting the hanger 7 to be inserted.
The detail construction of the tool 6 is shown particularly in Figures 3 and 4 from which it will be observed that there is provided a handle 8 having preferably, though not necessarily, an ofiset 9 at the end whereby it may be readily grasped and operated. At the end of handle 8 opposite the member Serial No. 84,598.
9, is an offset or turned over portion 10 which is secured to a connecting section 11 by any suitable means, as for instance, screws 12. The connecting section 11 is preferably integral. with the plates 13 and 14 forming the head of the tool. Each of these plates is provided with a pair of recesses 15 whereby hooks 16 and 17 on each plate are produced. One set of these books is adapted to be placed over the eye 5 when the tool is in use as shown in Figure 1. A hook 18 is rotatably mounted in the plates 13 and 1 1 and is so formed that the hook bar 18 fits properly beneath the spring 3 when the same is in use. Preferably, the bar 18 is parallel with the section 10 and, therefore, fits flatwise against the under surface of the spring 3 when the tool is in use.
In operation, when it is desired to apply a hanger to the rear of the automobile, the tool is positioned as shown in Figure 1 and then the handle or extension 8 is swung over to the position shown in Figure 2, whereupon the hanger 7 may be readily inserted. After this has been done, the tool may be swung back a short distance whereupon it will be released. The nuts may be placed in position either before or after the tool has been removed. The same action takes place in regard to the front perch 2 so that the same tool may be used in the front and rear of the automobile for applying or removing the hangers as desired.
What I claim is:
1. A tool for applying hangers to the springs and perches of Ford automobiles comprising a handle, a head connected with said handle formed with a hook structure on each side of the handle, a swinging hook member mounted on the head formed with a hook bar adapted to interlock with a spring when the tool is in use.
2. A tool of the character described com prising a handle, a head rigidly secured to said handle formed with a pair of spaced plates, each plate having a hook at the end, and a spring engaging hook having a section extending through said plates and rotatably mounted therein whereby the free end of the spring hook may swing.
3. A tool of the character described comprising a handle formed with a bent over portion at one end, a head rigidly secured to said bent over portion, said head compris ing a central section and a pair of side plates extending at right angles to the can tral section, each of said side plates having a hook at each end, and a spring engaging hook rotatably mounted in said plates.
l. A tool adapted to be used in applying hangers to Ford automobiles, said tool comprising a handle, a head formed with a hook on each side of the handle and stationary in respect to the handle, and a swinging hook, the hook being positioned in respect to the head to co-act with either of the first mentioned hooks.
5. A tool for applying hangers to the springs and perches of Ford automobiles, comprising a head having a pair of hooks at each end, a handle connected to said head centrally thereof so as to swing the head in either direction on either set of hooks, and a U-shaped member having one leg extending through said head and pivotally mounted therein, the opposite leg acting as a hook for engaging and pulling the end of the spring when the handle is swung to a given position,
6. A tool for applying hangers to the springs and perches of Ford automobiles, comprising a head having a hook structure, a handle connected with said head for swinging the same, and a substantially U- shaped member having one leg extending through the head and swingable therein, the opposite leg acting as a hook member or bar for engaging the spring in such a manner as to pull the spring when the tool is in use.
7. A tool of the character described comprising a head formed of a single plate havinga central bar or section, and a pair of end plates extending at right angles to the central plate, said end plates having a hook at each end, a handle having a turned over end fitting fiatwise against said sect-ion screw members extending through said turned over end and said section for clan; ing the head to the handle, and a swingahe hook mounted on said head.
