H. V. PAR'I ES PIPE WRENCH.
Patented Aug. 26
UNITED STATES I PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY V. FAR-TES, OF INDIANAPOLTS, INDIANA.
IMPRGi/EMENT IN PlPE-WRENCHES.
Specilica-tion forming part of Letters Patent No. 36,289, dated August- 26, 18652.
To an 2071,0722, it may concern:
Be it known that l, HENRY V. FARIES, of
Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented a newand Improved \Vrench for Grasping and Turning Gaslipes, Bolts, and any article of cylindrical form; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of 1 sponding parts in the two figures.
This invention consists in having a jaw of hook form connected by a pivot to a rigid or stationary jaw at thecnd of a-handle or lever, the hook-jaw extending over the'face of the rigid jaw and all arranged, as hereinafter fully shown and described, whereby the implement, when applied to its work, will grasp the article to be turned firmly and adjust itself to its size or diameter without any special manipulation on the part of theoperator, and at the same time by the ordinary manipulation of the implement release itself at each backward turn in order to admit ofa fresh hold or grip being taken.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully.
understand and. construct my invention, I will proceed to describe it.-
A represents a handle or lever, which may be of any suitable length, and having at one end of it a jaw, B, formed by having a piece of steel of a requisite width welded to the handle or lever with its outer or face side of segment or slightly convex form, as shown clearly in Fig. 1. The face or convex surface of this jaw B is toothed or corrugated as shown in Fig. 1 at a.
0 represents a steel jaw of hook form, one end of which is provided with a tang, b, fitted in a. slot,- c, in the back part of the jaw B, and secured therein by a pivot, d, onwhich the tang b is allowed to turn or work freely.
The :free or disengaged end of the jaw 0 projects over the frontcn'd'of' the jaw B, and the face side of the former has quite a quick bend or turn,- forming nearly a right angle, as shown at e in Fig. 1.
D is a spring, which may be constructed of a flat steel plate. The lower or inner end of this spring is attached to thc back part of the jaw- 13, and its outer end bears upon the back part of thejaw C and has a tendency to keep the same against the face of the jaw 13', as will be fully understood by referring to Fig. 1. In Fig. 2 this spring is shown broken oft, in order that the attachment of the jaw O to jaw B may be clearly shown.
If it should be desired tocconomize in the construction of the wrench, the jaws may be of iron and steel fitted in their face sides, in order to prevent the wear or abrasion thereof. The operation will be readily understood. The implement is adjusted to its work by the operator raising the front and disengaged end of the jaw with his thumb, so that the article to be turned may fit in between it and the face of jaw 13, and by then turning the handle or lever A from right to left, as indicated by the arrow 1,'the two jaws will firmly The spring D is an advantage, as itrenders the application of the jaw O to its work rather quicker than it otherwise would beibut still it could be dispensed with without materially detracting from the value of the implement.
The advantage that this wrench possesses over all others that have passed under my observation is thatit will adjust itself to its work and to articles of different thicknesses or diameter without any special manipulation onthe part of the operator, and in consequence of the jaw Q being arranged relatively with the jaw B, as shown, a very strong, wrench is obtained, as the pivot d of the jaw G is not' subjected to much strain, and a sliding jaw,
with, to operate as and for the purpose herein set forth.
2. The spring D, in combination with the ed in pipe-wrenches; jaws B 0, arranged as and for the purpose specified.
H. v. 'FARIES.
