HANDLE FOR OPERATING LnvEns.
Application filed March 19, 1928. Serial No 262,849.
This invention relates to handles for operating-levers, such as the gear shift levers of automobiles, for door knobs, and foruse in connection with sodafountain apparatus and the like. r
' The object of the invention is to, produce a handle or knob, adapted for screwthreaded engagement with a lever or tool end, which shall be pleasing in appearance, require no exterior attaching means and in which the screw threaded bushing or other means for engaging the lever end shall be securelyand non rotatably positioned with respect to the outer shell and interior filling,
v In the drawings: I V
Figure 14 is an elevation showing the outside of the knob or handle attached to one end of a gear shift lever; v I
Figure 2 is a vertical, sectional view of the knob. i V
' Figure 3 is a horizontal, sectional view taken on the line 33 of the Figure 2, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows, with the filling material and the bushing removed.
'Figure 1 is a vertical,sectional view of a 'modification of the invention.
Figure 5 is a horizontal, sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Figure 1, with the filling material removed.
In that embodiment of my invention shown in Figures 1 to 3, inclusive, the handle comprises two hemispherical shell portions 10 and 11, respectively. The lower portion 11 is apertured as indicated at 12 to receivethe cylindrical lower portion 13 of a bushing having an exterior hexagonal portion" 14. The upper closed end oi'the bushing, indicated at 15, is also cylindrical in contour, and both of the cylindrical portions 13 and 15 are of less diameter than the'hexagonal or angular portion 1 1. The part 14: is integral with and merges into the cylindrical lower portion 13 thereby forming a' slightlyinclined shoulder 16 complemental to the inner sur- The top of 131163116X- tending outwardly from its connection to the cylindrical end 15. The bushing is screw threade'd' interiorl as indicated-at 18. This bushing insartedin the lower part 11' before the latter is connected to the hemisphere 10. a
After the bushing is positioned, as shown in Figure 2, a circular plate 19, having a central aperture 20 and a plurality of smaller apertures 21, is placed over the end 15 of the bushing so thatthe margins of the plate sur- PATENT oFFlca rounding the aperture 20 will engage the side 7 I of the cylindrical vportion 15 of the bushing and the lower surface of the plate near the ap erture 20 will rest upon the shoulder 17 I The plate 19 is of such size that its peripheral margin engages theinner surface of the wall of the hemisphere 11 slightly below themargin of said hemisphere and is rigidly cemented in place,'as indicated at 22; r 3
After the'bushing 14: and plate 19 have been positioned, any suitable filling material,in dicated at 23; is poured into the interior of the hemisphere 11 through the apertures 21. Anyfilling material capable of becoming S01- lidif-led will answer the purpose. It will be the inner surface of the hemisphere 11 and -will extend upwardly through the apertures 21 of the plate which is fixedly secured in the part 11. By this arrangement the bushing 14 is prevented from rotating with respect to the i filling material and the filling material is fixedly held inposition by those portionsexten ding through the apertureso fthe plate 19 as .well as by the natural engagement of the filling material with the interior'of the :hemisphere 11. Thereafter the upper hemisphere 10 may be cemented to the lower portion 11, as
indicated at 2t. -The- shell 10, 11 may be made of pyroXylimimitation pearl or any other suitable material which will be' pleasing in appearance.
The device shown in Figure 2 thenready I to be attachedto a lever 25 which is exteriorly screwthreadedgas indicated at 26 in Figure 1.
The knob or handlemay be applied to operating levers of various sizes, the adjustment be- -1ng accomplished by inserting asleeve of any desirablethickness, screw threaded exteriorly and interiorly' in the bushing 18s I v p T w Ubvmusl he bush ing 14- not he hexwardly through the aperture 1.2.
otherwise angularly shaped to make a nonrotative engagement between it and the hard ened filling material. The shell member need not be hemispherical in shape and may assume any form desirable for the particular purpose for which, the knob or handle is in; tended 1 Referring now to the modified form shown in Figures 4 and 5, which is more particularly adapted for use in connection with operatinginner surface of tlie hemisphere 11 adj-acent I tothe opening 12 Extending inwardly from the. wal1 .11,' between the opening 12 and the upper margin of the hemisphere 11, and preferably nearer to said upper margin, are aplurahty. of studs 30.
