Description
H. SCHULTZ BATTERY PLIERS Feb. 10, 1931.
Filed Nov. 14. 1928 Patented Feb. 10, 1931 HENRY SCHULTZ, 0F YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO I BATTERY rmnnsi Application filed November 14, 1928. Serial No. 319,282.
The present invention relates to improvements in tools, and has reference more particularly to a pair of pliers for use in loosening the nut of a battery terminal, said pliers 5 being further of such construction as to facilitate the removal of the terminal from the post of a battery when the same hasbecome corroded on the post.
A further object isto provide a battery 1tpliers of the above mentioned character which will at all times be positive and eflicient in its operation, the same being adapted to effectivelyand easily remove a terminal from a battery post without injuring either the 15 terminal or the post.
Still a further object is to provide a tool of the above mentioned character which is simple in construction, inexpensive, strong and durable and further well adapted to the 551i purpose for which it is designed.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the' following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing.
In the accompanying drawing wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved tool.
Figure 2 is an edge view thereof.
Figure 3 is a view showing the tool in use for loosening the nut'of a battery terminal, and v Figure 4 is a view illustrating the manner in which the tool is used for pulling the terminal oil of a battery post.
In the drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral .1 designates generally my improved battery tool,
the same comprising a pair of cross levers 2 and 3, respectively, that are pivoted at their point of intersectionas at 4. The pivoted end of the lever 2 terminates in the curved laterally extending jaw 5, the free end of which is cut away'to form a shoulder 6, the purpose of which will be presently described.
A coacting jaw 7 is formed on the pivoted end of the lever 3, the outer end of the jaw 7 projecting beyond the outer end of'the complementary jaw 5 and the outer end of the jaw is formed with the inwardly directed battery post engaging projection 8.
The inner opposed faces of-the complementary jaws are formed with grippingteeth 9. The free ends of the cross pivoted levers constitute handles for actuating the tool whereby to either open or closethe jaw.
When tlie tool is used in the manner as shown in Figure 3 the nut 10 that is associated with the bolt 11 that connects the free end of the terminal clamp 12 together is gripped between the jaws 5 and 7, and by grasping the handles 2 and 3 together and urging the same inwardly to positively hold the nut between the opposed jaws, and by turning the In order to facilitate the removal of the terminal from the battery post 13 when the same has become corroded on the post, the tool is used 111 the manner as shown in Figure 1.
In removing the terminal 12 from the post 13, the projection 8 is adapted to engage with the upper end of the post 13 while the shoulder 6 engages with the terminal 12 as shown in Figure 4. By swinging the tool in a right hand direction, while holding the levers 2 and 3 clamped together the projection 8 will exert a downward force, while the shoulder 6 will push upwardly on the terminal, thereby effecting the ready and easy removal of the terminal from the post without damaging either the post or the terminal.
It will thus be seen from the foregoing description, that I have provided a tool that is, particularly adapted for use in loosening the nut on a battery terminal as well as pulling the corroded'terminal from its post.
The simplicity of niy improved tool enables the same to be constructed at a very low cost, and the same will be strong and durable and at all times positive and efficient in carrying out the purposes for which it is designed.
While I have shown the preferred embodiment of my invention it is to be understood that minor changes in the size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to 7 without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A tool for removing battery terminals from their posts comprising a pair of pivotally connected crossed levers an outer laterally extending jaw formed on the terminal of one of the levers, the other lever extending forwardly from the pivot'toward the jaw, an inner laterally projecting jaw formed on the last mentioned lever and arranged in substantially parallel relation to the outer jaw, a battery post engaging projection extending inwardly from the outer end of the inner jaw, the inner face of the outer jawbeing provided with a shoulder for engagement with the terminal and for receiving said projection and there being battery terminal nut gripping teeth formed on the inner opposed faces of the jaws.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
HENRY SCHULTZ.
