(MQdeL) I Q Gr. T. WISWELL.
PORK GUARD.
Patented Oct. 16, 1883.
WlT NEI'EIEIEEZ GEORGE T. WVISWELL, SHELBURNE FALLS, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO GEORGE H. YVABREN, OF SAME PLACE.
FORK-GUARD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 286,668, dated October 16, 1883.
Application filed April 19, 1883. ModeL) I To add whom it may concern: I
Be 1' t known that I, Gnonen T. WIswELL,
of Shelburne Falls, in the county of Franklin and State of Massachusetts, have invented certa -in Improvements in Guards and Ferrules for Table-Cutlery, 850., of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to guards andi'errules designed more particularly for table-cutlery, but applicable to various tools or implements; and it consists in a ferrule provided with a plate having laterally-projecting prongs or cars adapted to serve as a guard for the hand in which the implement is held as a rest for the implement, and as a means of intercepting any fluid which might otherwise flow down to the handle.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective view of the ferrule; Fig. 2, a perspective view of a fork provided therewith, and Figs. 3 and 4 views illustrating the way in which the guard holds the forward end of the implement up from the table or surface when placed in different positions.
Various devices have hitherto been provided in the shape of guards to protect the hand of a person in using table-cutlery, to hold the implements up away from the table or cloth, or to serve both of said purposes. Hy invention is designed to accomplish not only' these two objects, but at the same time to prevent grease from running down upon the handle of the implement; and to this end I adopt the construction shown in the accompanying drawings, in which-- formed thereon or secured thereto. rule proper is made of proper size to fit upon the end of a handle, G, and is preferably formed a guard or support, is made in the form of a plate, scalloped out at the sides to form ase- ,A represents the ferrule, and B the guard The fer-' ries of arms, a, which are made of such length that when the handle and the guard rest upon a table or other flat surface the arms shall elevate the implement, fork, blade, or whatever it may be, above the table, and keep it clear of the same.
By cutting out the edges of the plate, as shown, an ornamental appearance is imparted to it, less metal is required, and there are left the projections or arms, which serve both as a rest or support, and a guard, care being taken to leave enough of the central portion of the plate to project a little beyond the handle, so as to prevent grease or gravy from working from the blade back onto the handle. The plate may be made sufficiently thick to serve as a ferrule, or the plate and ferrule may be made integral by punching or drawing the ferrule from the central portion of the metal constituting the plate, or they may be made separately and then be soldered together, as may be found most convenient. In that. class of cutlery having handles on which no ferrule is used the guard-plate will be slipped onto the tang before the tang is inserted in the handle, the gist of the invention being the guard-plate B, arranged to protect the handle from grease 0r gravy, and having the arms or projections to serve as a rest and guard.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is- 1. The herein-described guard-plate B, having a central portion arranged to protect the handle from grease, 820., and the projecting arms to serve as a guard and rest, as set forth.
2. In combination with the ferrule A, the
guard-plate B, having a central portion arrangedto project laterally beyond the ferrule, and provided with projecting arms, substantially as shown and described.
GEORGE T. XVISWELL.
