GEORGE GONOVER, OF MIDDLETOVVN, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN SCISSORS AND SHEARS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,672, dated December 16, 1879; application filed October 15, 1879.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE OONOVER, of the city of Middlctown, in the county of Middlesex and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Scissors or Shears, of which the following isa specification.
My improvement consists of the application of a narrow-faced cam or beveled projection to the inner face of the shank of the blade, placed about midway between the pivot-pin and the junction of the fingerliolcs with the shank. This projection is at right angles, or nearly so, to the shoulder against which the other bladeshank shuts when the scissors or-shears are closed. A slot is cut across the face of the shank, and the projection is let into it and fast ened by means of two pins, one at each end,
O, to which shoulder the projection is at right an ales, and about midway between F and G.
The operation of this improvement is obvious. As the blades of the scissors are closed the narrow-faced projection on one shank grad the cam should be made very narrow on its face.
The improvement may he applied to all scissors and shears of the general form pictured in the drawing, and will befound to facilitate the use of scissors, whether taken in the right hand or the left.
hat I claim is The combination of a narrow-faced cam or ber elcd projection with the inner face of the shank of the scissors-blade, in the manner and for the purpose substantially as described.
