UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE GREEN, OF ELIZABETH, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SlDlNG-GAGES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 182,187, dated September 12, 1876; application filed June 20, 1876. l
To all whom it may concern:-
Be it known that I, GEORGE GREEN, of Elizabeth, in the county of J o Daviess and in the State of lllinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Siding-Gages; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being, had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of refereucemark'ed thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts of an adjustable support and gage for weather-boarding, the peculiarities of which will be hereinafter set forth.
In .the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specificatiomFigure lis a perspective, and Fig. 2 a sectional, view.
In the figures,-A represents a block, which has a slot or opening cut through it to receive the sliding gage G and the wedge D. Secured to the inner face of this block is a metal plate, B, the ends of which project beyond the sides of the block, as seen in Fig. 2. 0 represents a sliding graduated gage, which hasaflat P head, as seen, from m to ac, and a flange, E.
The shank of this gage passes through the opening in block A, and is secured in any desired position by means of the wedge D, which passes in by the -side of it.
In using-this gage the plate B has one end inserted between the last board nailed on and the precedingone, so that the upper edge of the block will rest against the bottom edge of the last board nailed on. The gage (J is then set at any required point, and is there secured by the wedge D. The board to be'nailed on is now placed with its bottom edge upon the head of the gage, where it is kept from slipping'oft' by'ineans of the flange E. When both ends of the board have, been regulated by gages the board is easily nailed in proper place.
The wedge D can be made to clamp the board tightly between it and the plate B by making it bear against the board as well as against the gage O.
It will be seen and understood that the metal plate B is thin, and beveled at the upper end, and, when inserted between the boards, it is held by frictional contact.
Having thus fully described m'y invention,
what I claim is- The combination of the slotted block A with rigid friction-plate B, the adjustable sliding.
May, 1876.
