CHARLES A. HARDY, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN SOCKETS FOR TOOL-HANDLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N o.A 180,126; dated July 25, 1876; application filed y June 9, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES ATWooD HARDY, of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Sockets for` Tool-Handles, of which the following is a specilicationzf" The purpose of this invention is to provide for pick-handles a protective socket, which shall be expansive and adjustable to the eye ofthe pick.
Figure l is a View ot' said socket in perspective. Fig. 2 is a horizontalgtransverse section.
rlhis socket is of metal, preferably/kof malleable cast-iron, and may be of such length and breadth as may be preferred for various toolhandles.
The castings as they come from the tumbling-barrel are driven upon the handles, a templet of proper size and form (corresponding to the eye of the pick) encircling the socket at the same. time to press it to the exact form and size of the eye ofthe tool, and to prevent over expansion. Wedges, preferably of wood, are then driven into the end ofthe handle, to iirmly secure it within the socket.
The interior of said socket may be of uniform diameter, or may taper either way or both ways from tle center, to add to its iirmness when the handle is wedged within it.
The exteriol` surface of the socket is preferably tapered from end to end, but may be formed with parallel sides, which, by wedging, can be forced to assume the taper of the pick-eye.
Referring to the drawings, a is the split or opening in said socket, which permits of its expansion. Said slit may terminate ina circular enlargement, as shown in-the drawing, or in any form preferred, calculated to prevent the continuation of the slit beyond the point desired, and at the same time allow sufcieut expansion.
These sockets can be finished at small eX- pense, no ling or grinding beingreqnired to make them fit the pick-eye. nicety of t requisite may be obtained Aby simply polishing the socket upon an emerybelt.
To attach for use, the pick or other tool is simply slid upon the handle and driven forcibly upon the socket.
The socket can be further expandedY at any future time by an additional wedge.
I do not claim the attachment of picks to The greatest
