SGLDERING IRON.
Application led October 20, 1926. Serial No. 142,952.
.The Object is the provision of an electrically heated soldering iron which shall be of an extremely simple construction, cheaply manufactured and marketed, ornamental in appearance, heats instantly and which is thoroughly efficient for its purpose.
A further object is the provision of an electrically heated soldering iron which is light in weight, constructed so that the same Vmay be easily and conveniently' handled and which in ap carance resembles a fire-arm in the nature olf) a pistol, and wherein a Contact is made between a carbon stick and a copper wire or electrode upon the actuation of the triggerof the pistol and which will be found most efficient in soldering` radio parts.
To the attainment of the foregoing, .the improvement resides in the construction, combination and operative association "of parts, a satisfactory embodiment of which is disclosed by the drawings which accompany and form part of this application.
In the drawings: c C
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improvement with parts in section.
Figure 2 is a sectional view on the l1ne 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional View on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a' sectional view on the line 4-4 of Figure 1. Y
The body of my improvement comprises two similar sections of insulatinr material. As disclosed by the drawings tlie body is shaped to represent an ordinary pistol, provi'ding a barrel 1 and a handle 2. The Vsections constituting the body are removably connected by means 3.
Extending longitudinally through a bore or opening in the upper part of the-barrel 1 there is a copper tube 4. This tube 1s rounded at the butt end ofthe body, and i the handle 2, is hollow. Received in the hollow handle and soldered or .otherwise-secured to the rounded and preferably flexible end of the tube 4 there is electric conductor 5a AThe copper tube 4 proJects a suitable distance through the barrel 1 and is designed to frictionally receivethere'm a copper wire 6. The wire is in the nature of an electrode and has its outer end roundedV downwardly and from thence extended inwardly, as at 7 i Extending lon'tudinally through the iower portion of e barrel 1 there 1s a secper tube s. This-tube has en@ which extends through the barrel andthe-Qv said end is preferably widened and slotted longitudinally to form the same with clamping aw; 9 that are designed to receive therebetween a carbon stick 10. It isto be noted that the carbon stick and the wire electrode G are both removably associated with the device so that should either of these elements be burnt out they can be readily replaced. In addition to this the spark gap between these elements may be properly adjusted. Connected to the inner end of the tube 8 there is a second electric conductor 1l. Of course, both the conductors 5 and 11 have a protective covering and are both connected with a plug to be received in a'house socket.
Pivoted, as at 12, in a hollow portion of the body of theimprovement there is a trigger member 13. The trigger member carries a rod 14 that passes through a slot or opening in the tube 8. The trigger is influenced in one direction by an arched spring 15.
The simplicity of my construction and the advantages thereof will, it is thought be perfectly apparent to those skilled lin the art to which such inventions relate when the foregoing description has been read in connection with the accompanying drawin s. It will be apparent that by swinging t e trigger 13 the rod or conductor 8 will be moved longitudinally through the barrel of the body to bring the carbon stick in proper relation to the hooked end 7 of the electrode 6 to establish a continuous spark between these elements, the said spark being of sufricient intensity to melt solder. The improvement may be cheaply constructed, is ornamental in appearance and is particularly adapted for use in soldering radio parts.l e
Having described the invention, I claim l. A soldering iron comprising a body of insulating material, longitudinally arranged copper tubes therein, a wire electrode having one end frictionally received in one of the tubes and having'a hooked end in a line with the axial center of the second tube, said lastV mentioned tube having a'clamp on theV outer end thereof for the reception of a l carbon stick, electric conductors connected with both of the tubes and means for impart-ling longitudinal movement to` the carbon'` stick carrying tube.
2. A soldering iron as herein described, comprising a bo y shaped to resemble'a pistol, a fixed copper tube extending longitudinally through the barrel of the pistol, a.
conductor extending through the handle of the pistol and connected to the tube, a Wire electrode rictionally received in the tube and having a hooked outer portion Whose end is directed toward the barrel, a second and slidable copper tube in the barre] said tube having its outer en'd slotted longltudinally to provide spaced jaws for the reception of a, carbon stick therebetween, an electric conductor passing through the handleI l0 and connected to the last mentioned tube, a trigger member pivotally secured in the body and extending therethrough and having :i loose connection with the lastmentoned tube and spring means inuenoing the trigger 15 member in one position.
In testimony whereof I aHix my signature.
