Description

July 4, 1939. F. w. ZINK CARRIER FOR ROPE, WIRE. AND THE LIKE Filed Dec. 27, 1937 FIGA INVENTOR FRED w. ZINK BY W ATTORNEYS.
Patented July 4, 1939 PATENT OFFICE CARRIER FOR ROPE, WIRE, AND THE LIKE Fred W. Zink, Detroit, Mich, assignor to White head Stamping Company, Detroit, Mich., a corporation of Michigan Application December 27, 1937, Serial No. 181,959
'7 Claims.
This invention relates generally to portable carriers for rope, wire and the like and refers more particularly to a hand reel.
One of the essential objects of the invention is to provide a strong and durable reel that is light in weight and can be manufactured at a comparatively low cost.
Another object is to provide a reel that, aside from the handle mounting, can be quickly and accurately made from sheet metal stampings.
Another object is to provide a reel wherein two stampings cooperating with each other to form the body and rope-receiving portions of the device are constructed and arranged in such a way that they also form suitable bearings for the handle mounting.
Another object is to provide a reel wherein portions of the cooperating stampings, preferably at the juncture of the rope-receiving portions with the body, are offset or spaced apart to provide in effect notches which may be alternately used as desired for receiving the knotted end of a rope when the latter is initially applied to the reel.
Other objects, advantages and novel details of construction of this invention will be made more apparent as this description proceeds, especially when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is an elevation of a reel embodying my invention and showing rope applied thereto;
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 without the rope being applied;
Figure 3 is an end elevation of the reel;
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the reel;
Figure 5 is a vertical sectional View taken substantially on the line 5-5 of Figure 2.
Referring now to the drawing, A is the body, B and C, respectively, are the rope-receiving portions, and D is the handle mounting of a reel embodying my invention. Preferably the body A and rope-receiving portions B and C are formed from two sheet metal stampings I and 2, respectively, which, as shown, are outwardly opening channels having closed rounded ends 3.
The body A is preferably oval-shaped and is formed by oppositely-bowed intermediate portions 4 and 5, respectively, of the stampings, while the rope-receiving portions B and C are substantially U-shape in configuration and are formed by oppositely-curved end portions 6 and 1, respectively, of the stampings. At the juncture of the body A and rope-receiving portions B and C, the stampings l and 2 have abutting substantially fiat portions 8 and 9 that are secured rigidly together by rivets In. To permit the knotted end of a rope such as H to be anchored at either end of the device, the flat portions 8 and 9 are offset slightly at the inner ends of the curved portions 6 and 'l to provide recesses l2 and I3, respectively, which simulate notches for the reception of said knotted end of the rope.
A handle I4 is sleeved upon a shaft l5 that extends freely through aligned openings l6 and I1, respectively, in the bowed intermediate portions 4 and 5 forming the body of the reel. Preferably this shaft I5 is provided at its lower end below the handle M with a head 18 and is provided at its opposite end above the base l9 of the upper stamping with a head 20. M is substantially equal in length to the distance between the lower head 3 and the base 2| of the lower stamping, hence the parts are so constructed and arranged that the shaft IE will be held against longitudinal movement in the openings l6 and I1, and the handle M will likewise be prevented from movement longitudinally of the shaft, but the stampings l and 2 as a unit are free to rotate about said shaft on said handle.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. A reel having two stampings providing an elongated body and rope-receiving portions at opposite ends of said body, said stampings being provided at the juncture of said body and one of said rope-receiving portions with offset portions cooperating with each other to provide a recess for the reception of the knotted end of a rope.
2. A reel having an oval-shaped body and provided at opposite ends of said body with substantially U-shaped rope-receiving portions, the body and rope-receiving portions being formed from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the U-shaped rope-receiving portions and body being substantially fiat and rigidly secured together, said flat portions being provided at the bases of the U- shaped portions with cooperating offset parts forming notches for the reception of a knotted end of the rope, a shaft extending freely through aligned openings in the bowed sides of the body at the center thereof, and a handle sleeved on said shaft at one side of the body, opposite ends of the shaft being headed, and the construction and arrangement being such that the shaft is held against longitudinal movement in the body, the handle is held against longitudinal movement on the shaft, and the body is free to rotate about the shaft on said handle.
3. A reel having an elongated body and pro- The handle and rope-receiving portions being formed from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the U-shaped rope-receiving portions and body being substantially fiat and rigidly secured together, a shaft extending freely through aligned openings in the body atv the center thereof, and a handle sleeved'on said shaft at one side of the body.
' 4. A reel having a substantially oval-shaped body, and substantially U-shaped rope-receiving members opening outwardly from opposite ends of said body, said body and members being formed from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the members and body being face to face and rigidly secured together, opposite bowed sides of said oval-shaped body being provided substantially midway their ends with substantially aligned holes, and a handle shaft engagin said holes.
5. A reel having an elongated body and provided at opposite ends of said body with substantially U-shaped rope-receiving portions, the body and rope-receiving portions being formed. from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the U-shaped rope-receiving portions and body being substantially flat and rigidly secured together, said fiat portions being provided at the bases of the U- shaped portions with cooperating offset parts forming notches for the reception of a knotted end of the rope, a shaft extending freely through aligned openings in the bowed sides of the body at the center thereof, and a handle sleeved on said shaft at one side of said body.
6. A reel having an elongated body and provided atopposite ends of said body with substantially U-shaped rope-receiving portions, the body and rope-receiving portions being formed from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the U-shaped rope-receiving portions and body being substantially flat and rigidly secured together, said fiat portions being provided at the bases of the U- shaped portions with cooperating ofi'set parts forming notches for the reception of a knotted end of the rope, and a handle shaft spanning the space between and connected to opposite sides of said elongated body.
'7. A reel having an elongated body and provided at opposite ends of said body withsubstantially U-shaped rope-receiving portions, the body and rope-receiving portions being formed from two outwardly opening channels, the bases of said channels at the juncture of the U-sh-aped rope-receiving portions and body being substantially flat and rigidly secured together, and a handle shaft spanning the space between and I connected to opposite sides of said elongated body.
