Description

May 11, 1965 G. c. HABERSTICK PAPER AND RUBBISH PICK-UP Filed Sept. 23, 1963 V INVENTOR GEORGE CALLEN HABERSTICK United States Patent O Filed Sept. 23, 1963, Ser. No. 310,814 1 Claim. (Cl. 294-19) This invention relates to a device for pickin-g up articles of waste without soiling the hands. One form of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which FIGURE 1 is a view of the device when not in use, and FIGURE 2 is a View of the device when being used to pick up articles of Waste.
The invention consists of a piece of metal tubing 2. A metal rod 1 is placed inside the tubing 2 and secured at the top 3, and the top should be solid so that the rod 1 can be fastened to it. A spring 4 is fastened to the lower end of the rod 1, and a further rod 5 is attached to the bottom end of the spring 4 and extends to the bottom of the tubing 2. The bottom of the tubing 2 should be solid with a hole in it so that the pointed end of the rod S can pass through it at 6.
A handle 7 is xedly attached to the upper part of the tubing 2. A rod 8 is then attached to the bottom of the spring 4 and goes over and is pivoted at the side of the tubing 2 and extends from that point down under the handle 7. A piece of the rod 9 should be attached to the under side of the handle 7 to act as a stop when the extended piece of the rod 8 under the handle 7 is pressed by the lingers to operate the device. When the extended piece of the rod 8 under the handle 7 is so pressed the point will come out at the bottom of the tubing 2 and pick up `any paper or rubbish on the ground. When the extended piece of the rod 8 is released the point will recede and drop the paper or rubbish into a receptacle.
ll Patented May ll, 165
I claim:
A device for picking up and depositing in a receptacle various articles of waste without soiling the hands, cornprising in combination a metal tubing having an upper and a lower end, an element secured to and closing said upper end and depending downwardly into said tubing, an extensile coil spring having its upper end secured to the lower end of said element, an impaling rod reciprocably slidable in said metal tubing, the upper end of said impaling rod being secured to the lower end of said coil spring, the lower end of said impaling rod being pointed, said rod being manually projected from and spring retracted into said tubing, lthe lower end of said tubing having a plug which has a bore of slightly greater diameter than that of the impaling rod, said plug serving as a guide for the impaling rod and also serving to strip any refuse from said rod as it is retracted into the tubing, a handle rigidly `secured to said tubing and extending angularly outwardly therefrom, and a bellcrank lever pivoted adjacent the wall of said tubing with one end extending through said wall and pivotally secured to the top of said impaling rod, the other end of said bellcrank extending away from said tubing directly under and in alignment with said rigid handle for manual manipulation relative to said handle for projecting the impaling rod.
