EDWARD EMRICH, OF ROCHESTER, NEV YORK, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF HIS EIGHT TO EDMUND OGUMPAUGH, OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVEMENT IN SAD-ElRoNs.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 211,979, dated February 4, 1879 application filed October 21, 1878.
lTo all 'whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD EMRICE, of the city of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of N ew York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Sad- Irons; vand I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and eXact description ot' the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a sectional side elevation of my improvement. Fig. 2 is aplan with aportion ofthe wooden handle broken away. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section. Fig. 4 is a plan similar to Fig. 2, but showing the handle removed from the iron. Fig. 5 is a section through one of the studs which connect the handle-plate with the sad-iron.
My improvement relates to sad-irons with remoyable handles, which are well known.
The invention consists of an improved construction and arrangement of the locking devices connecting the handle with the iron, as hereinafter more fully described.
A represents the sad-iron, which may be of ordinary construction, and either solid or hollow, with a iilling of non-conducting material. In the center of the top of this iron is formed a circular cavity, a, across which is a central longitudinal bar, b,- and outside of the hole a, equidistant from the center, are two studs, c c, which stand upright, as shown.
B is a curved wooden handle, set into a thin iron plate, G, by sockets d cl at the ends of the plate. This plate extends longitudinally, and has in the center an enlarged flat portion, f, which covers the cavity a in the sad-iron.
In the center of the plate is a slotted crossbearing, g g, in which are pivoted, at h h, two hook-levers, t' i'. The hooks are at the bottom, and spring under the xed bar b when in place on the sad-iron. At the top of the lever are two thumb-pieces, 7c 7c, having a coiled spring, l, between them, which constantly throws them apart, and consequently keeps the hooks at the lower end engaged under the cross bar b but by pressing the thumbpieces together the hooks may be disengaged, and consequently the handle and its plate can be readily disengaged from the bar.
m m are holes formed through the handleplate Gr, in coincidence with the studs c c, and which strike over the said studs when the handle and its plate are pressed upon the sadiron.
To facilitate the passage of the holes over the ends of the studs, the lower portion of the holes are countersunk or beveled, as shown in Fig. 5.
The studs and holes are both equidistant from the center, so that the handle will tit the sad-iron, and may be locked thereto in either direction indifferently.
I design forming the under side of the handle-plate G with projecting lugs or a iiange, which will prevent the whole body of said handle-plate from resting on said iron, and therefore will prevent, in a great degree, the passage of heat to the handle.
, The thumb-pieces 7s 7c are preferably made of wood, to resist the heat.
The novelty in this ease consists, more especially, in the construction of the iron with the barI b and pins c c, and the handle with the plate G, having holes m m, and the locking device with hook-levers i z', and spring l, as above described.
These pins and holes, being eqnidista-nt from the center, allow the handle to be placed on the iron either way. They serve as an attachment of the handle to the iron some distance from the center, so that in the lateral or v side movement of the device in ironing, in which great strain is produced, such strain will notcome on the sprin g locking device at the center, but will be taken by said studs or pins. The bevels on the under side of the 2 innove vices connected with a bar resting over a eentral opening' in the iron. Such I do not claim.
What I claim as new is- The improved sad-iron herein described, consisting` of the body A, provided with the Cross-bar b and pins 0 0, the handle B, provided With plate G, having holes m m, which fit over the pins, and the spring,` locking device, connected with pla-te G, consisting of the pivoted hook-levers 'i f5, engaging'with the cross-bar, and the spring l, for pressing` said levers apart, the Whole combined and arranged to operate as and for the purpose specified.
In Witness whereof I have hereunto signed my naine in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
EDWARD EMRICH. Witnesses:
R. F. OsGooD, CHARLES C. BARTON.
