Aug. 5, 1952 M. M. SANCHEZ MAGNETIC TOOL Filed May 2, 1949 INVENTOR. WZarczaZ 772. Sanaiez;
ATTO RN EYS Patented Aug. 5, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a tool, and more particularly to a tool for use in straightening dented vehicle fenders, door panels, and the like.
The object of the invention is to provide a tool which will enable the user to readily straighten dents in vehicle door panels or fenders, the tool 01 the present invention being capable of straightening dents which are incapable of being straightened by a conventional hammer in view of the inaccessibility of such dents.
Another object of the invention is to provide a dent straightening tool embodying a magnet which securely attaches the tool to the dented portion, the tool further including a sliding hammer which is adapted to produce a sharp shock or hammer blow to thereby straighten the dent.
A further object of the invention is to provide a tool which is extremely simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this application, and in which like numerals are used to designated like parts throughout the same:
Figure l is an elevational view of the tool, according to the present invention;
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1, but with certain parts of the tool in section;
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3-4 of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 2; and
Figure 5 is a view showing the use of the tool for straightening a dent in a vehicle door panel.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the numeral I0 designates a bar or rod which may be fabricated of any suitable material such as steel and the bar In may be cylindrical in shape. Mounted on one end of the bar In is a magnetic head which has a conventional structure and includes a coil l2. A line or cable I3 is connected to the magnetic head H and the line i3 has a plug l4 for insertion in a wall socket l5, Figure 5, whereby the head II is connected to a source of electrical energy for energizing the latter.
Secured to the other end of the bar [0 is a handle l6 which is adapted to be gripped in the user's hand for steadying the tool during the use thereof. Further, by pulling 0n the handle l6, small dents may be removed from door panels and the like. Arranged contiguous to the handle l6 and secured to the bar In is a stop member ll.
Mounted for movement into and out of contact with the stop member i1 is a hammer l8 which may be made of steel or other suitable material. The hammer carries a tubular bushing is which is fabricated of a non-magnetic material, the bushing is being slidably arranged on the bar In.
In use, the tool is especially suitable for straightening dents such as the dented or damaged portion 2! of the door panel 20, Figure 5. Thus, to remove the dent 2| with an ordinary hammer would be impossible or could only be done with great difiiculty. However the tool of the present invention enables the user to readily remove the dent 2i and this is accomplished without the necessity of disassembling the door panel 29 in order to gain access to the dented portion 2 I. The user merely inserts the plug l4 into a suitable socket 15 to thereby energize the magnetic head ll. engagement with the dented portion 2| so that the magnetic head ll becomes securely attached to the dented portion 2|. Next, the operator manually forces the hammer 18 against the stop member I! to form a sharp impact or hammer blow when the tool is in use. One or more of such impacts is usually suflicient to remove the dent 2! from the member 20.
The tool is especially useful in repairing members which are hard to get at and the various parts of the tool can be made of any suitable material. The tool can also be made with a permanent or electro-magnet and can be made so that it will operate on A. 0., D. C2, or can be actuated by means of a suitable battery.
What I claim:
1. In a tool, a bar, a magnetic head mounted on an end of said bar, a stop member mounted on the other end of said bar, a hammer slidably arranged on said bar and adapted to strike said stop member, a handle arranged contiguous to said stop member and secured to the said bar, and a non-magnetic bushing carried by said hammer and slidably embracing said bar.
2. A tool for straightening dented portions of a member, comprising a bar, a magnetic head mounted on one end of said bar for engagement with the dented portion of said member, a line for connecting said head to a source of electrical energy, a hand engaging handle secured to the other end of said bar, a stop member arranged contiguous to said handle and mounted on said bar, a hammer adapted to strike said stop member, and a non-magnetic bushing carried by said hammer and slidably embracing said bar.
