Description

MaY 26, 1931. E. FYXBXYRNES 1,807,279
SPATULA Filed oct. 2. 1929 Patented May 26, 1931 UNITED STATES PATE-.NT OFFICE EDWARD P. BYRNES, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO THE'IVBOYE NEEDLE COM- PANY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS SPATULA Application filed October 2, 1929. Serial No. 396,874.
The invention is illustrated in a preferred embodiment in the accompanying drawings, 1n which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the asj sembled spatula; Figs. 2-4 are perspective views of the blade, handle and ferrule, re-
spectively; Fig. 5, a longitudinal vertical section taken as indicated at line 5 of Fig. 1; Fig. 6, a broken plan view showing the blade inserted in the handle and ferrule; and Fig. 7, a transverse sectional View taken as indicated at lineA 7 of Fig. 1.
In the construction illustrated, A designates the blade of the spatula; B, the handle supporting the blade; and C, a ferrule atthe junction of the handle and base of the blade.
The blade A comprises a thin resilient strip of metal, preferably of` tempered steel, having a broad front edge with small rounded corners and tapering back to a broader semi-circular butt-portion having a projection or tang V1. The tang has a rounded nose to facilitate its insertion into the handle.
The handle B preferably is made of a soft wood, such as bass-wood, or pine. It is of common form and is provided at its inner end with a boss or shank 2. A bore 3 eX- tends through the boss into the body of the handle. The bore preferably has a diameter somewhat smaller than the width of theV the boss 2 of the handle; and the tang 1 of the blade is then inserted through the slot 5 and forced into the bore. The action is continued until the butt-portion of the blade enters the slot 5 and cuts a kerf 6 in the wood. The edges of the tang, or shank, 1 lso cut shallow grooves 7 in the wall of the ore.
It will be noted that the wood or material in the boss of the handle is thereby compressed between the ferrule and the blade, insuring a tight iit. The tang, being slightly larger in width than the bore 3, will be tightly wedged in the bore.
The construction described enables very light gage steel to be used for the blade. The extending of the handle over the wide base-portion of the blade serves to prevent the thin metal from taking a set, even when sufficient pressure is exerted to curve the blade in a marked degree. Thus; it is possible to cause the blade to bend freely while inserting it between a cake and the bottom of a baking-pan, for example, so that the j action of loosening and lifting the cake is greatly facilitated.
The improved construction is staunch, may be manufactured cheaply, and is thoroughly adapted to its purpose.
What I regard as new, and desire to se-I cure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A spatula comprising: a handle having at one end a V.boss and having a bore eX- tending through said boss into the body of the handle; a ferrule on said boss having an end-wall and a slot through said end-wall and the adjacent portion of the ferrule; and a wide, thin, iieXible and resilient spatulablade having a tang wedged in said bore and having a widened butt-portion entered in said slot and embedded in a kerf in'said boss, whereby said blade may be flexed and curved by applying pressure through the medium of said handle without injury to the blade.
2. A spatula comprising: a handle having a bore extending into its inner end; a ferrule on the inner end of said handle provided with an end-wallhaving a slot therethrough extending partly through the cylinvan diical Wall of the felrule; and a Wide, thin, flexible, resilient spatula-blade having a tang extending into Said bore With its edges embedded in the Wall of said bore and having a wide base-portion entered in said slot and embedded in :L kei'f in the inner endportion of said handle, whereby said. blade may be ilexed and curved by applying pressure through the medium of said handle, without injury to the blade.
