SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No, 309,191, dated December 16, 1884.
Application filed January 28, 1884. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY G. BRILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Southington, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curry-Combs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in curry-combs; and the objects of my invention are to produce a very strong and rigid comb, and to so simplify the construction that the comb may be produced at a small cost. I at tain these objects by the construction illus trated in the accompanying drawings, in whieh-- Figure 1 is a plan view of my comb as constructed with a closed back. Fig. 2 is a sectionalyiew thereof on line a x of Fig. 1, partly in elevation. Fig. 3 is a detached side eleva tion of one of the comb-bars of my comb. Fig. a is a transverse section thereof on line y 7 of Fig. 3, on an enlarged scale. Fig. 5 is a plan of my comb as constructed with an open back, and Fig. 6 is a side elevation thereof.
I form all of the comb-bars with a loop, a, which is cut out and pressed up from the back of the respective comb-bars and integral therewith. This may be done by means of the same die which bends the comb-bar into the U shaped form, so that bending the comb bars, and cutting and swaging up the loops a can be accomplished at a single blow. The first combbar, A, I form into U shape, with both sides thereof of equal length, so as to form two rows of teeth thereon, as sh own most clearlyin Fig. 2. The other comb-bars, B, are formed with one side longer than the other, and with teeth only upon the longer side, as shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 4;. The short side of the U-shaped comb-bars is long enough to afford a sufficient bearing-surface for abutting against the longer side of the adjoining combbar, as shown in Fig. 2. The loop a of each successive combbar is a little shorter than the one immediately preceding it, so that lines drawn across their opposite ends will describe a taper. I form the shank C of the handle D preferably of malleableiron, and with a connecting-plate, E, having tapering side edges which conform to the taper described by the ends of the successive loops a a. The end of the plate E which is nearest the shank C is provided with downward projections or wings I), for abutting against the outside of the first comb-bar; A. After the parts have thus been formed, they are assembled by passing the plate E through the loops of thesuccessive comb-bars, as shown. WVhen the plate E is thus passed through the loops of the comb-bars, its narrowest end eX- tends straight in the same plane with the body of said plate. The parts are then placed in suitable dies, the comb-bars all pressed firmly together, and by a blow of said dies the new row end 0 of the plate E is bent down over the outside of the last comb -bar, to hold them firmly in position.
The usual knockers, (6, may be attached in any desired manner.
If desired to make an open-back comb, I form the bars A with teeth upon both members, substantially like the bar A, first described. Instead of letting these bars abut one against the other, I connect them at suitable distances apart by means of suitable plates, F, riveted to the ends of said bars. The loops a of these bars A, the shank, and its plate E are the same as the plate and loops of the corresponding bars represented in Figs. 1 and 2. After the bars A have been riveted to the plates F, the handle is secured, and the comb-bars prevented from racking by inserting the plate E through the loops and bending down its end 0 in the manner first above described.
I am aware that a prior patent shows acurry-comb having a series of sheet-metal combbars, all but one of which have only one row of teeth, and with said bars abutting against each other, and secured together by metal plates riveted to the ends of each bar, while a wire shank for the wooden handle extends through round holes in said bars; and that another patent shows one having a series of comb-bars with eyes formed on their backs, and a block provided with an eye between each bar, and a flattened bolt which passes through the eyes in the respective bars and blocks, and secures them together when the nut at the end of said bolt is tightened. All of said prior art is hereby disclaimed. By
forming the loops integral with the bars struck up from the backs thereof they can be made so long that a wide plate may be employed, which will prevent the bars from twisting on the plate. The loops are also somewhat yielding, so that they may be only partially opened at first, and then finally fitted to the plate E by the act of driving that plate through them, and consequently insure a snug fit.
By my invention a very firm rigid comb is produced, and it can be produced by very little labor, and consequently at a small cost.
I claim as my invention 1. The improved curry-comb herein described, consisting, essentially, of a series of sheet-metal comb-bars having on their backs integral loops, the loops in each successive bar being a little shorter than the one immediately preceding it, and a holding-plate tapered at its edges to conform to the series of loops extending through said loops and secured therein, substantially as described, and for the purpose specified.
2.'The herein-described curry-comb, coning upon the outside of the outer'comb-bar, to
bind the Whole together, substantially as de scribed, and for the purpose specified.
HENRY O. BRILL.
