STAPLE FULLER.
Application filcd March 22; 1927. Serial No. 177,343.
The object ofmy invention is to provide a staple puller of simple, durable and inexpensive construction, which is formed of asrngle piece of stock material and prov ded with a pointed member adapted to be driven into the post in which a staple is mounted, so that the pointed end may be caused to engage the inner face of the article which is being supported by the staple, said pointed end being so arranged that the main body portion of the puller may be used as a lever'for removing the staple after'the point has been inserted by simply swinging the body portion through an angular path. I
A further object is to provide in a staple puller improved means whereby the handle of the puller may be more readily gripped to prevent the same from slipping through curved inwardly in the manner shown in Figthe operators hand.
A further object is to provide a staple puller having a staple pulling member at one end and a claw at its opposite end for stretching fence wire and the like,,the central portion of the puller being provided with a bulged portion to prevent the handle from slipping on the post while the stretching takes place.
My invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of the various parts of the device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claim, and
illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: I v Figure 1 is a top plan View of my improved staple puller. Figure 2 is aside elevation of the same, Figure 3 is a detail sectional View, taken on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a side elevation of fence post having a fence wire stapled thereto, showing the manner in which my improved staple puller is applied to remove the staple. V
M improved staple puller is formed of a singie piece of stock material, preferably a hexagonal bar 10. One end of the bar 10 is formed into a laterally extending portion 11 which is rebent and doubled upon itself to form a second laterally extending portion 12. The member 12 terminates in a tapered and pointed member 13. The member 13 is ure 2, with the pointed end'of the said member resting in a plane extending substantiallymidway between the members 11 and 1:2. The portion connectingthe members 11 and 12 is flattened at 14, the surfaceofthe flattened portion being substantially at right angles to a plane lying between the members 11 and 12, and provides means for receiving the blow of a hammer or similar article for causing "the pointed end 13 to enter a post 15 or similar article, in the manner illustrated in Fig ure 1, to cause the pointed end 13 to enter be tween the wire 16 and the said post. The member 13 isalso driven between the prongs of the staple 17. then rotated through an angle causing the outer curved surface of the member 13 to engage the post 15 and the staple is removed from said post.
The body portion. 10 'is provided with a laterally extending bulged or bent portion 18, V
which serves as a handle portion for the body portion 10. The transverse portions 19 prevent the operators hand from slipping longitudinally of the body 10 while the staple The handle member 10 is puller is being operated. The free end of I the body portion '10 is flattened at 20, said flattened portion being bifurcated to form a claw for pulling nails or engaging the barbs 21 of the wire 22 when the tool is being used as a wire stretcher, in which case the post upon which the wireis mounted is caused to enter the bulged portion 18 to prevent the body portion 10 from moving longitudinally. The free end of the body portion 10 may then be rotated about the post in an anti-clockwise direction as vshown in Figure 2, causing'tension to be applied to the wire 22.
Thus it will be seen that I haveprovided a staple p'ullerof simple, durable and inexpensive construction, which is very convenient either for pulling staples or stretching wire, and which is provided with means for preventing the operators hand from slipping longitudinally of the body portion while it is being used as a staple puller, and to act as means for preventing longitudinal movement of the said body portion when applied to a post and operated as a wire stretcher.
By looping the staple pulling end of the Y I body portion, I have provided a suitable end ported adjacent to each other, I have conv siderably reinforced the curved portion, and
at the same time enabled the pointed end of the member13 tolie in a'plane substantially perpendicular to the handle member, and at the same time IOVIdID a suitable curvedv portion for the outer surface of the member laterally and rebent upon itself with the over- 13 to act as a fulcrum while the device isflbelapping portion adjacent to the laterally exing used as a staple puller. By this arrangetending portion, with the free end of said Inentit will be seen that any blow on the suroverlapping portion tapered and curved 5 face 14 will be in direct alinenient with the slightly inwardly, the curved portion con- 15 pointed end of the member 18, necting the overlapping portions being pro- I claim as my invention: vided with a flattened face, said flattened A staple puller comprising a body portion face being perpendicular to a plane between formed of stock material of uniform dianisa1d overlapping, portions.
10 eter, one end of said body portion being bent SAMUEL T. F IELDING.
