March 26, 1957 W. A. JOHNSON HAND ANVIL Filed Feb. 16, 1956 INVENTOR. Lvi llicu'n, a; JO 11.115011.
United States Patent HAND ANVIL William A. Johnson, Minneapolis, Minn.
Application February 16, 1956, Serial No. 565,930
1 Claim. (Cl. 81-15) My invention relates to improvements in hand anvils.
In the marketing of fixtures and appliances for the home and elsewhere which are constructed of sheet metal in greater or lesser part, the sheet metal is frequently bent, dented or in some way slightly deformed during shipment or handling with the result that such damaged articles are frequently returned to the factory for minor repair, which for the sake of economy would be desirably accomplished on the premises of the dealer or distributor by ordinary repairmen employing simple tools.
An object of my invention is to provide a simple, inexpensive, durable and effective tool for use in accomplishment of the desideration aforesaid, which is of compact form capable of being conveniently held in the hand of a user and which has a cylindrical surface and a plurality of angularly related plane surfaces meeting one another and the said cylindrical surface in a manner providing a number of anvil surfaces of various sizes and shapes with variously shaped lines of division therebetween for use selectively in accommodation of varieties of work to be treated.
Other objects of the invention reside in the novel combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter illustrated and/or described.
In the drawing:
Fig. l is a perspective view of a hand anvil constructed in accordance with my invention and showing the back of the anvil from the nose-end thereof.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view similar to Fig. 1 showing the anvil from the butt end thereof.
Fig. 3 is a transverse cross-sectional view of the anvil shown in Figs. 1 and 2, said view being taken as on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
The illustrated embodiment of my improved hand anvil consists of a block A of suitable metal and, though slightly elongated, is relatively compact, the same being capable of being readily held in the hand of a user and shifted from one position to another therein and with respect to the work to which the anvil is applied for the selective presentation of its various faces to the particular work involved in the course of treatment.
The block A has a front planiform face 10, and meeting said face at the tip portion a of the block along a straight line of division 11 is a planiform tip face 12. Meeting said front face 10 of the block A at the butt portion a thereof and along a straight line of division 13 is a planiform butt face 14. Also meeting said front face 10 of said block at one side thereof and along a straight line of division 15 is a planiform side face 16. Said side face 16 meets the tip face 12 and the butt face 14 of the block A along straight lines of division 17 and 18, respectively and said front face 10, tip face 12, butt face 14 and side face 16 are disposed in right angular relationship with respect to each other. At the back of the block A and at the tip portion a thereof, said block is formed with a planiform face 19 which is rearwardly inclined away from the tip face 12, said inclined face 19 meeting said tip face 12 and the side face 16 along straight lines of division 20 and 21, respectively. Also at the back of the block A is a cylindrical face 22, the same being generated as from an axis extending longitudinally of the block forwardly of the front face 10 thereof. Said cylindrical face 22 meets the front face 10 of the block and the side face 16 thereof along straight lines of division 23 and 24, respectively. This cylindrical face 22 of said block A additionally meets the tip face 12 and the butt face 14 thereof along circular lines of division 25 and 26, respectively, and also meets the inclined face 19 of the block along a line of division 27 of elliptical form. Said cylindrical face 22 and the adjoining butt face 14 are rounded one into the other, as at 28, along the circular line of division 26 therebetween.
Thus, it is seen that the block A, formed as described, is relatively small and compact and conveniently held in the hand and, yet, is provided with a relatively great variety of anvil surfaces of various sizes and shapes variously associated with each other and meeting each other along lines of division of various contours, thereby adapting the tool to the ready and eflicient use thereof in a relatively great variety of applications such as those encountered in connection with damaged fixtures and appliances of the nature hereinbefore indicated.
Changes in the specific form of the invention, as herein described, may be made within the scope of What is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is:
A hand anvil consisting of an elongated block of metal having a planiform front face, and having also a planiform side face, a planiform butt face and a planiform tip face all meeting said front face along straight lines of division therebetween, said side face similarly meeting said tip face and butt face along straight lines of division, said faces being disposed in right angular relationship with respect to each other, said block having a planiform back face at its tip portion inclined rearwardly away from the tip face and meeting said tip face and said side face along straight lines of division therebetween, said block also having a cylindrical back face generated as from an axis extending longitudinally of the block, said cylindrical face meeting said front face and side face along straight lines of division, and meeting said butt face and said tip face along circular lines of division, and meeting said inclined face along a line of division of elliptical form.
