' DRAWER-PULL.
SPECiFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 247,907, dated October 4, 1881.
- Application filed August l3, 1881.- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES G. HALLAS, of Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Drawer-Pulls; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the 'letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-
Figure 1, a side view; Fig. 2,;the three parts of the socket detached; Fig. 3, the said three parts united; Fig. 4, the knob-spindle blank; Fig. 5, the spindle-tip; Fig. 6, the spindle and tip united; Fig. 7, section of the ball-blank in sectional side view; Fig. 8, central section of the ball complete. y
This invention relates to an improvement in that class of drawer-pulls which consist of a knob-like handle arranged in a socket, which is attached to the drawer-front by a bolt-like spindle attached to the socket proper and extending into or through the drawer-front, the object of the invention being to cheapen the construction by employing lighter material, and also to make a firm article, which is not so liable to get out of repair as the usual construction; and the invention consists in the de tails of construction, as hereinafter described, and particularly recitedin the claims.
A represents the base or socket, here shown as frustum-of-cone shape, made so as to bear over a considerable surface on the front of the drawer. It is constructed from sheet metal struck up in suitable dies, and in shape or ornamentation may be made to suit any particular class of work or requirements of the trade.
'Its outer end has a perforation, a, centrally through it.
B is the socket, which is struck from sheet metal into cup shape, and has upon one side a notch, 12, cut therein, into which the knob-spindle may swing, as seen in Fig. 1. It also has perforations (1 through its surface at right angles to the said notch I), and its closed end has a perforation, 0, corresponding to the perforation a in the base A, and'so that that perforated end may set firmly upon the perforated end of the socket.
back from the end, so that the projecting end h may pass through the two perforations "a e in the parts A B and bring the collarf againstthe inside of the base, as seen in Fig. 3. The projecting end It is then riveted down upon the inside of the socket B. as seen in Fig. 3, which firmly secures the socket and base to the screw C between the collar fand the riveted end. This method of uniting the three parts makes a much firmer and stronger article than can be made by soldering, costs little, if any, more, and the parts cannot be accidentally separated,
as is frequently the case when the parts are soldered together.
E is the knob-spindle, which is made from wire, with a head, I, at one end,the other end screw-threaded. A metal tip is applied to the knob to make a suitable finish for this outer end; Instead of making the spindle of brass or other expensive metal and forming the tip F thereon as a part of it, or, as in some cases,
casting a brass tip upon an iron screw, I make a cup-shaped tip, as seen in Fig. 5, having a projecting flange, m, at its edge, which will set over the head I of the screw, and then the edge on be turned over the head, as seen in Fig. 6. This tip, made of sheet metal and then applied, is much cheaper than the usual methods ofconstruction, and does not require the finishing that must be made upon the castmetaltip. Thespindleisattachedtothesocket by means of a ball, G. To make this also of sheet metal, and thereby save the expense necessary in making it of cast metal, I first make a blank, tubular, its one end, a, contracted and internally threaded to receive the screw end of the spindle E, the upper end being rounded from its intersection with the neck a, so as to be substantially hemispherical, the sides continuing upward, as seen in Fig. 7. Then, with suitable dies the open end, 1', is drawn inward, 5
completing the spherical shape, as seen in Fig.
8. This ball has perforations s diametrically opposite each other, and corresponding to the perforations d in the socket, so that a rivet or pivot may be inserted through the perforations 10o in the socket and through the ball, in which the knob will swing from its position of rest (seen in Fig. 1) upward into the pulling position, (seen in broken lines.)
I claim 1. The combination of the base A, socket B, and bolt 0, of a swinging-knob drawer-pull, the closed ends of said base and socket perforated, the screw provided with a collar to take its bearing inside the base, the end projecting therefrom extending through the perforation in the base and socket and headed down to secure the three parts together, substantially as described. I
2. In a swinging-knob drawer-pull, the ball 15 by which the knob is hung to its socket, made in tubular form, with the contracted neck a, its other open end turned inward to complete the spherical shape of the ball, substantially as described.
