Description

Nov. 19, 1929. F. R. FEHLHABER BENDING TOOL Filed July 51, 1928 INVENTOR Fgd H. Fab/linker ATTORNEY Patented Nov.- 19, 1929 UNITED STATES FIRED R. FEHLHABER, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
BENDING TOOL Application filed July 31,
This invention relates to a bending tool designed and adapted to be used principally by workers on a building construction job, for the purpose of carrying out clip bending operations in conjunction with structural elements to support the latter in readiness for application thereto of other structural material.
The principal object of the invention is the provision of a tool of the indicated character which is well adapted for the intended purpose, and with which the work to be performed may be carried out in an expeditious manner.
The nature of the invention and its distinguishing features and advantages will appear when the following specification is read in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a tool constructed in accordance with the invention.
Fig. 2 is a View illustrating the tool being used for the purpose of bending the ends of a clip, in conjunction with two structural elements.
Fig. 3 is a view showing the clip after being bent by the tool.
While the tool hereinafter described is principally designed for bending clips, it is to be understood that it is not necessarily limited to such use, as it may be found use ful for other purposes.
The tool includes a rigid element 10 of metal which is cross sectionally round in the present instance, but which may be of any other cross sectional shape. Pairs of work engaging and bending members 11 may be formed integral with the element 10, or may be provided by extending short rods trans versely through the element 10. A pair of members 11 extend laterally from and are disposed in spaced parallel relationship at each side of one end of the element 10. The opposite end of the element 10 is flattened and spread out, and is provided with a hole 1928. Serial No. 296,543.
12. The said element 10 is bent in its length in order that the tool may be wielded or used in a most convenient manner.
The tool having the features described may be used advantageously for bending the ends of a clip, such as the one designated 13, in conjunction with two structural units, such as those designated 14 and 15, to fasten the same together. The element 14 is in the form of an angle iron, and the element 15 is in the form of a channel iron, the latter being supported by the former, and serves for supporting metal lathing. On a building construction job, thousands of clips, such as the clip 13 are used and have to be bent in order to fasten structural elements such as the elements 14 and 15 together. The tool serves effectively for carrying out clip bending operations in an expeditious manner. The tool is used by bringing the members 11 into engagement with the ends of the clip 13, after the clip has been brought into association with the elements 14 and 15 with the ends thereof positioned over the element 14. It will be apparent that the ends of the clip 13 are disposed respectively between the members 11 of each pair. It follows therefore that when the element 10 is manipulated by a worker who will pull the element 10 toward him, with the members 11 engaged as explained, both ends of the clip 13 may be bentdownwardly, as shown in Fig. 3. Thus both ends of the clip 13 are bent downwardly in engagement with the upstanding flange of the structural element or angle iron 14, in a single operation.
l/Vhen by reason of the conditions existing at a certain location, it is impossible to engage both pairs of the members 11 with the ends of a clip, one end of the clip ata time may be bent, by entering the said end of the clip in the hole 12, whereupon the element 10 may be manipulated for the purpose of bending the clip end in hooked engagement with the associated structural element.
I claim: A bending tool comprising a rigid element, and pairs of equally spaced rigid Work engaging and bending members rigidly secured to and extending laterally from and disposed respectively at opposite sides of one end of :said element.
Signed at City Island, in the county of Bronx and State of New York, this 26th day of July A. D. 1928.
