Description
GEORGE VVdMoCLINTOOK, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
LANDING-NET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 317,820, dated May 12, 1835. Application filed September 23, 1884. (X0 model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. MoOLIN- TOOK, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Landing-Nets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the portable dipnets carried by anglers for the purpose oflanding fish caught by a hook.
A net of the class to which my invention relates is composed of a flexible metallic strip or rod adapted to be bent into a ring or marginal frame to support the netting, and a handle provided With means for securing the ends of the strip or rod and holding it in ring shape, the strip being detachable from the handle and capable of being straightened and placed,with the net, in a cavity in the handle, the whole device being thus reduced to a compact form for transportation.
The invention consists in certain improvements in the form of the ends of the flexible strip or rod, and in the means employed for detachably securing it to the handle, all of which I will now proceed to describe and claim. I
Of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 represents a plan view of the handle and the strip or rod secured to it in position to hold the net. Fig. 2 represents a section on line 00 00, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 represents asection on line y y, Fig. 2. Fig. 4. represents a'section on line a 2, Figs. 1, 2, and 3. Fig. 5 represents a section on line z z. the ends of the strip or rod being removed from the handle. Fig. 6 representsa section on line 2 2, Fig. 5. Fig. 7 represents a perspective view of the ends of the strip or rod, and Fig. 8 represents a section of a modification.
The same letters of reference represent the same parts in all the figures.
In the drawings, a represents the handle, and b represents the flexible metal rod or strip which. supports the netting. One end of the handle is provided with a metallic tip or ferrule, 2,. having a portion of its periphery threaded, and provided at its end with a stud, 3. The shank of said stud is tapered or decreased in size from the tip 2 outwardly, and is provided with an enlarged head at its outer end. 0 represents an internally-threaded collar or sleeve provided at one end with a head having an orifice, 4, of sufficient size to receive the shank of the stud 3, but smaller than the head of said stud. The collar is screwed to the threaded portion of the tip, the shank of the stud 3 projecting through the orifice in the head of the collar, its head preventing said collar from being entirely removed by unscrewing. The stud is of sufficient length to permit a considerable outward movement of the collar before it is arrested by the head of the stud, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. When the collar is thus moved outwardly, a considerable space is formed between the inner surface of its head and the end of the tip 2. The collar is provided under its head and at opposite sides of its periphery with slots 5 5, communicating with the space between-the head of the collar and end of the tip, and formed to admit the ends of the strip or rod into said space. The edges of the rod near its ends are provided with semicircular notches 6 6, which, when the ends of the rod are placed against each other,'as shown in Fig. 2, bear against and inclose the shank of the stud.
The operation of applying the strip or rod 1) to the handle a is as follows: The collar 0 being adjusted outwardly on the tip 2, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the notched endsof the strip are inserted into the slots 5 5 and engaged with the reduced outer portion of the shank of the stud 3, the strip being bent into a ring to permit its ends to be thus inserted. The handle is then rotated in the proper direction to cause the end of the tip to move toward the head of the collar. The ends of the strip are thus clamped between the end of the tip and the inner surface of the collar, and at the same time the tapered shank acts as a wedge, forcing the edges of the ends of the strip laterally against shoulders 7 7 ,formed on the inner surface of the head of the collar. (See Figs. 4 and 5.) The ends of the strip are thus securely locked, so that they cannot move in any direction.
When it is desired to separate the strip or rod from the handle, a few turns of the latter will release the ends of the rod, so that they can be withdrawn from the slots 5 5. It will be seen, therefore, that the strip can bequickly l slots in its sides to receive the ends of the and securely fastened to the handle and as quickly released. The collar 0, being prevented from separating from the handle by the headed stud 3, cannot be lost or mislaid.
The stud may be made with a straight instead of a tapered shank, as shown in Fig. 8. I prefer the tapered form, however, because of its wedge function.
The rod or strip 1) may be cylindrical in cross-section, instead of flat,the slots 5 5 being correspondingly formed.
I claim 1. The handle having the threaded tip pro vided with the headed stud 3, combined with the flexible notched strip b,and the internallythreaded collar 0, having an aperture in its head to receive the shank of the stud 3, and
strip 12, as set forth.
-2. The combination of the threaded tip having the tapered and headed stud 3, the flexible strip having notches 6 6 at its ends, and the internally-threaded collar 0, having an orifice formed to receive the shank of the stud, but smaller than the head thereof, and slots 5 5 in its sides,formed to receive the ends of the strip 1), as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, this 18th day of September, 1884.
