TEMPLET.
Application-filed February 19, 1927. Serial No. 169,591.
'This invention relates to geometrical instruments and its general object is to pro-` vide a stair and building templet that is capable vofV being extremely easilyv and quickly applied `for getting accurate measurements between two given points so that accurate cuts can be obtained by said measurements with the result that when my novel templet is used, the lwork of building stairs, shelves or anything that requires accurate measurements will be simplified and can be easily done in an efficient and expeditious manner and with eXactness and precision.
A further object of the invention is to provide a templet that is extremely simple in construction, strong and sturdy and inexpensive to manufacture.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the. several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had tothe accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the templet forming the subject matter of 'the present invention.
Figure 2 is an edge elevation thereof.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary top plan view with the parts extended.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Figure 1. y
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5--5 of Figure 3. Y
Figure 6 is a sectional view taken on line 6 6 of Figure 4.
Figure 7 illustrates one of the uses of my templet and showing the same positioned between shelf uprights.
Figure 8 shows a templet applied to a board that has been scribed to be out, and secu'ied between the uprights shown in Figure Referring to the drawings in detail the reference numerals 1 and 2 indicate cooperatively `associated overlapped elongated body strips having enlarged rounded -apertured ends 3 and 4 each of which is provided with a squared inner end 5 to accommodate the adjacent end of the companion strip when the said strips are normally disposed as y shown Figures 1 and 2 of.y the drawings. The strip'l is provided with a longitudinal slot 6 extending from its center toward one vendand terminating adjacent said end while the strip 2 is provided with a similar slot 7 extending from its center toward its end opposite the termination of the slot 6.7 Secured in the inner ends of these slots 6 and is what I term a center `bolt 8 having a head 9 counter-sunk in the strip 2 and a knurled l nut is threadedly secured to the bolt whereby the strips can be held at any given length it beingapparent that the slots provide for the sliding movement of the strips on the bolt 8. The strips are further provided with tongues 10 and 11 respectively ,extendingA outwardly from thecenter bolt opening and received in grooves 12 and 13 for slidable movement so 'that a strong and sturdy structure 1s provided and the strips will be properly braced when arranged in open position as suggested in V*Figure 3 and shown in Y larged ends kof blades 18 of like shape as shown in Figure 1. These blades 18 are ta` pered towardtheir free ends and are mounted for pivotal movement on the bolts 14 and 15 whereby they can be swung at` various angles with respect to the strips 1 and 2 or in alignment therewith or in parallelism therewith as shown in Figures 1 and 2 and of course the nuts 16 are to be tightened to retain the blades in any desired position. The strip 2 is provided on its inner surface with graduations 19 and Vnumerals 2O to-indicate inches as shown in Figure 3.
From the above description and disclosure in the drawings, it will be. obvious that I have provided a templet that can be used eflicient-ly in the building of stairs, shelving and likework where accurate measurements are necessary and by the use of my novel templet the finished work will be neat and perfectly fitted, done in an expeditious manner and with very little eifort on the part of the builder. While I have shown my ternplet in Figures 7' and 8 of the drawings, in use in the building of shelves, the templet nol
