NITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
soorrr 1). JORDAN, OF CAPE ELIZABETH, MAINE.
EXTENSION CLOTH ES-POLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 275,770, dated April 10, 1883,
Application filed April 21, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that- I, SCOTT D. JORDAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cape Elizabeth, in the county of Cumberland and State of Maine, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Extension Clothes- Poles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 illustrates a side elevation of my device, showing the top stafi run up, caught by a pawl, and hitched by a cord upon the main stafl' also the clothes -line notch and the foot-spike. Fig. 2 illustrates a sectional view at the middle of the same, showing the pawland-ratchet work, and the cord socket and pulley. Fig. 3 illustrates a back view or the inner side of the top stafl, showing the liftingcord groove, the cord-socket, the pawl-slot, and
the sliding clip. Fig. 4 illustrates a back view or the inner side of the main staff, showing the ratchet indents, the guiding clip, the sheave-hole, and the foot-spike.
My invention is a clothes-line pole, and embraces the following peculiar features: a top stafi' sliding upward closely upon a main staff and guided within a pair of slipping clips or collars; also, the main staii' provided with a series of indents along the inner side, in which a lever pawl or latch placed in thelower end of the top staff automatically engages; a lifting-cord fastened at the foot of and lying loosely along a groove within the length of the inner side of the top staff, and passed through and over a pulley within the top of the main staff; and, finally, a pointed ferrule or spike fixed at the foot of the main staff, and a fork sustaining the top staff, A, when in use.
ble to warp. They have the general form of two stout poles of nearly equal length, and each correspondingly and evenly planed on one side, so as to smoothly and fittingly slide one along the other. Two suitable bands or clips are provided, the one, 0, to be fastened at the top of the main staff, so as to fittingly embrace the top staii', yet allow it to easily slide 7 sition along the main stali'. Near the foot of the staff A, and just above the clip d, a rectangular slot, 9, is out through from its inner face, within which is suitably pinned a lever pawl or catch, 6, so that the outer or handle end of the pawl will alwaysoverbalance the inner or engaging end. There are also out into the inner or flat face of the main staff B a series of indents, m, into which the lighter end of the lever pawl i successively and automatically slips, thereby keeping the stafi' A, whenever lifted, at any desired elevation. Just above the said pawl-slot g a hole or socket,
a, is pierced through the staii' A, in which one end of a suitable cord, 8, is fastened, which cord lies loosely within a groove, 10, out into and along the flat or inner side of the said top staff, and pays out through another hole or recess, a, made in the top of the main stalf B just under the clip 0, and thereby makes a cooperative or double lift with the handled pawl 45 to elevate the top staff, A. Said cord is also used to ease away the said top staff whenever the lever-pawl is disengaged and it is desired to only partially lower the laden top staff, as then the unlatched pawl readily and automatically engages the desired lower recess or indent of the main staff. Said cord, when fully downhauled, may also be belayed to the cleat f to assist the pawl i and the clips 0 and d in The main staff is provided with a pointed ferrule or spike, .70, fixed into its foot, to prevent its slipping from place on the ground, and the top of the stafi A has a notch, z, made in it, to properly confine the laden clothes-line.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
1. In aolothes-linepole,thecombination ofthe automatieally-enga-ging pawl i, the lifting-cord s, the cord-groove p, and the slipping clip ('6 of the top staff, A, with main stafi" 13, provided with the series of indents m, the sheave-hole u, and the guiding-clip a, substantially as and for the purposes herein specified.
2. In a clothes-line pole, the combination of the foot-spike w of the main stafi" B, provided with the series of indents m, and the line-notch of the top staff, A, provided with the automatic pawl t, and the lifting-cord s, substantially as and for the purposes herein specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in 20 presence of two witnesses.
