RAZOR STROP. Y

JOSEPH R. TORREY, OF WORCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
RAZOR-STROP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 295,840, dated March 25, 1884.
Application filed December 2T, 1883.
To @ZZ whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, .Iosnrrf R. ToRREY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Worcester, in the county of Worcester and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Razor-Strops, of which the following is a specication, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings. A i
`My invention relates to that class of razorstrops having stropping-belts, the tension of which is regulated by adjustable tighteningplates; my object being to cheapen the manufacture of such plates, and at the same time produce platesof such construction that the rigid wooden bodies of the strops will -be less weakened by the holes entered by the projecting pins or 'lugs of the platesV than by the forms of tightening-plates heretofore in use.
I accomplish this object by striking out the pins or lugs (which enter holes in the end of rigid bodies of the strops and thus serve to prevent the `rotation of the tightening-plates with their adjusting-screws) from the body of the plates, thus leaving the said pins or lugs integral with the bodies of the plates. In thus` striking out these lugs, one is left connected with theplate near one corner thereof, and
`the 'other is left connected near the corner diagonally opposite, both of the lugs being thus in different horizontal planes from each other, and also from the threaded hole in the plate through which the adjusting screw passes. From this construction it follows that the holes in the end-of the wooden body of the strop, entered bythe said lugs and screw, will all be in different `planes relative to the grain of the wood, andsaid body will, therefore, be less weakened by said holes than where the holes for the pins or lugs'of the plate and the hole for the adj listing-screw are all in the same horizontal or vertical plane across the end of the strop, as in the construction heretofore generally in use.
' In the drawings,-Figure-l is a side view of a strop embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a` transverse section of the same, on the line `2 2, Fig. I;` and Fig. 3 is a detail perspective View of my improved tightening-plate.
5o A indicates the rigid wooden body of the (No model.)
strop. B is the'handle, having a screW- threaded shank, b; and G is the stroppingbelt, passing over a bridgepiece, c, at the outer end `of the strop and the tighteningplate D at the handle end. The plate D is provided with a threaded hole, d, through which the shank b of the handle B passes into the body A, and with pins or lugs d arranged diagonally opposite to each other on the plate, as clearly shown in Fig..3, said pins or lugs being preferably struck out from the body of the plate. the end of the body A, and prevent the rotation of the tightening-plate with the screwshank b when the handle is turned to adjust the tension of the belt. These pins or lugs, formed as above described, take the place of pinswhich have heretofore been riveted to the plate, my improved plate, with struck-out lugs, being much cheaper as well as better than the tightening-plates heretofore generally in use. 4
While it is deemed preferable to leave the struck-outings connected to the body of the plate near the diagonally-opposite-corners thereof, the object of this arrangement may be in a measure attained by leaving both of the lugs connected to the same side or end of the plate near the corners thereof, this latter arrangement brnging the lugs out of line from the threaded hole in the center of the plate. Asingle struck-out lug, left connected to the body of the plate near one corner thereof, will also serve a very good purpose, but two are obviouslyabetter.
It will be understood that my improved` tightening-plate may be used in connection with other forms of strops than that herein shown-as, for example, to strops the rigid bodies of which are made concave under the belt, or to the form of strop shown by Patent No. 288,389.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A tightening-plate for razor-strops having projecting pins or lugsarranged diagonally opposite to each other on the body of the plate, substantially as described.
2. A tightening-plate for razor-strops having projecting pins orylugs struck out from These pins or lugs enter holes in` IOC) the body of the plate and arranged diagonally l ing projecting pins or lugs struck out from opposite to each other, substantially as del the body ofthe plate and connected with said scribed. l body near the corners thereof, substantially 3. The combination of the body A, the hanl as set forth. 15 5 dle B, having the screw-threaded shank b, the In testimony whereof I affix my signature in stropping-belt G, and the tightening-plate D, presence of two Witnesses. having the diagonallyarranged projecting T pins or lugs d, struck out from the body of JOSEPH R TORREX' the plate, and the threaded hole d, substan- Vitnesses: 1o tally as described.
