"H: @BPS Application led July 22,

'An object of the invention 1s to providea jointer whose parts Amay be separated where- A by the member that isla plied directly to y another of difthe work may be replaced ferent form.

Another .object 'is the provision of a fjointer whose parts are adapted to be loosened whereby the member that is applied directly to the work may be changed in position to provide a new working surface. l ,i 6 v Still another object is to furnish a jointer for mason7s use that will provide for interlchangin the actual -working member, or admit 0% its change in position for presenting'a diil'erent working surface thereonand yetso constructed that the, various parts will bethoroughly rigid relatively.

To the end that the invention may be fully understood the accompanying drawing is provided wherein: l

Figure 1 is a side elevation of one -orm of v 25, the jointer of' my invention'.

Figure 2 is a side elevation of aother form of the invention. A y

Figure 3 is a transverse section ofthe tool 'produced on line in both Figures 1 wand 2.4 1

Figure 4 is an end elevation of theform of tool shown in Figure 1. f

Figures 5 and 6 are end elevations of t wo forms of av working member usable with either type of device shown, and

Figure 7 shows in perspective a partvofv a holding portion of my improved jointer.

In Figurevl the numeral 1 designates that portion or member of the tool that is vdi,- rectly applied to the work. As shown in said ligure, and in Figure 5 which. shows the full size, the member is of square form, as is also true of the form ofto'ol shown in Figure '2, while in Figure '6 it is shown of round form, or it may be any other form desired. v

A handle structure is shown in'said Figure 1 which in ther present instance comprises three parts, a grasping piece 2, and two" holding portions 3, 4, theselatter portions being secured each at one of its ends to theL grasp' g piece 2 -b ,a screw 5 passing through al t ree hol ing them in rigid relation. l

The holding portions 3 and 4 lextend away :from the ends of the handle- 2 andY at their or holding the same in place in the handle contrari.

1927. Serial No. 20'','722.l

free ends engage 'the ends of the member 1, said yholding portions being suitably formed to space said handle a desired distance from said member. ,The end of the portion 3 has a terminal end 6 to overlie the end of the member 1 and includes a iin 7, for example, on its inner'surface adapted to lie in either of two grooves 8 ofy said member, said fin 'having an extension 6 to enter a central cavity 7 2. in the end of the member, Figiires' 5 and 6, by 'which the member is maintaine in a iixed position relative to the handle.

The end of the portion 4 remote from the handle 2 has a terminal end 9.similar to the "lo end 6 and includes a boss 10 substantially f paralleling the axis of the handle 2and lies in a socket 11 in said member 1. Both por-- tions 3 and 4..may be provided with lugs 12 to overlie the-member 1 constituting a s'ad- 75 dle to receive the said\member into it as in Eigure 3. v Asstated' earlier herein my object is to substitute one` form of the member 1 foranother as wellv as to enable the workman to present dierent working surfaces of a member to the 'work` By loosening `the screwthe portions Sfand 4 may be separated sufliciently 'to permit the fin 7 to draw out of the groove 8 inA which it lies thus per- 85 mitting the member 1 to be removed and re- Y placed by another or to be rotated to any desired position whereupon the-screw upon bein tightened secured the parts relatively ri .It is clear in this connection that one soV \ o the portions 3, 4 may, if desired; be a r part ofthe handle 2 so that by a suiiicient -loosening of the said screw the other will have enough end movement to accomplish the end stated.

'.lhe form in Figure 2 is ada ted for use in working in narrow or con ed spaces. It includes the member 1f of any of the forms mentioned and the handle 2 has'attached thereto or formed therewith a hold- 100 ving portion 3 having saddle portions 12',./

if desired, and' the terminal end 62 including the fin 7 to lie in the groove in the end of the member 1 as in the first instance, a" screw'8 extending through the end 62 into' 105 the member' serving to complete the assembl v 1t' is to be understoodA that ,it is not my purpose to confine myself to the exact modev of securing the

members

1, 1 from rotating structure since other methods are open lfor use, I having described and shown but one eiicient form for so doing.

I claim: j..

1. In a masons jointer, a handle, a member for application to the work, a portion extending from each end of said handle, each engaging an end/of the member positively supporting the same therebetween, one/ of the portions and the member having a portion complementary to one another adapted to engage for preventing the member rotating, a'nd means to secure the handle and said portions relatively rigid and for clamping the member between said portions.

2. A 'masons jointer including a handle, a holding portion extending fromend thereof rigid therewith, and a part of which portion is disposed substantially parallel to the handles length including a saddle, a work engaging member adapted to engage the saddle, the said holding portion arranged to engage upon one end of the member, and means to secure the member and portion relatively.

3. A masons jointer including a handle, a holding portion'extending. from one end thereof rigid therewith, a part of which p0rtion is disposed substantially parallel to the,

handles 4length including a saddleA in oneside thereof, a work engaging member ada ted to be lodged in the saddle, said holding portion arranged to engage upon an end o the member and having a iin extending from its surface, said member having a groove in its end toreceive said fin, and means to secure the member and portion relatively.

4. A masons jointer Finclliding a handle, a holding portion extending from .each end of the handle, a part of one of which is disposed substantially parallel to the handles length and having a saddle, a work engaging member adapted to be lodged in the saddle, each of said holding portions arranged to engage an end of the handle,

stantially parallels the handles length and including a saddle, and each also including a terminal and disposed substantially at right angles to the said handles length, a

tuv

work Aengaging member interposed between theqterminals and held thereby and having a groove in one end, and also adapted to be lodged in the saddles of the said holding portions, a iin on one of the terminals to engage in the said groove in theend of the member, and means to secure the handle, the portions and the member relatively.

6. A masons jointer including a handle, a holding portion abutting upon one end of the same and ailixed thereto, a work engaging member havingr groove across an end thereof, said holding portion havinga terminal end to receive the end of the member against it and including at that end a fin to'engage in said groove, and means to HENRY F.
