SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 370,150, dated September 20, 1887.
Application filed January 17, 1887. Renewed August 26, 1887. Serial No. 247,988. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES OTIS MANTOR, of Northampton, in the county of Hampshire and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Metallic Shovel-Handle, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a light strong metal shovel-handle of simple structure. To accomplish this I preferably form the side pieces of the handle and the socket for the reception of the ordinary wooden stern of a single piece of metal. The graspbar is by preference formed of a separate piece of metal and secured in place by being interlocked with the ends of the side pieces, as appears more fully from the following description.
Figure 1 is a view of a blank from which the side pieces and socket are formed of asingle piece of metal. Fig. 2 is a view illustrating the blank bent or forged into shape. Fig. 3isaview of a blank of sheet metal from which the grasp-bar may be formed. Fig. 4is aside view illustrating the manner in which each end of the grasp-bar may be interlocked or connected with its side bar. Fig. 5 is a detail view illustrating another plan for connecting the grasp-bar and side pieces, and Fig. 6 still another plan.
The blank illustrated in Fig. 1 is formed of two narrow elongated projecting portions, a, which form the side bars of the handle when the enlarged rectangular portion 1) is bent up in the manner illustrated in Fig. 2. By this means the side bars and socket are formed of a single piece of metal. The construction is simple, light, and strong, and the metal is readily worked into the required shape.
0 is asheet-mctal blank from which the graspbar may be formed. In order to provide for an interlocking joint between the grasp-bar and the side bars,the blank 0 is preferably cut away at each end,at 0, so as to leave a central projection, d, and a projection, d, at each corner when bent into circular shape to form the .the end of the grasp-bar.
grasp-bar. The corner projections, d, come together, as clearly shown in Fig. 3, and fit into a slot, a*, in the side bar. The side bar fits in the depressions 0 in the end of the graspbar, and is cut away around its end, so as to form a seat for the elongated projection d on The face of the proj ection d, the face of the side bar, and the faces of the corner projections, d, will then be flush. This construction gives a strong, simple interlocking joint.
As illustrated in Fig. 5, the side bars may be formed with concave depressions (t the concave bulge being turned inwardly on each side, so as to fit in the open end of the hollow graspbar, as will be obvious from the drawln s. l
is illustrated in Fig. 6, a cast grasp-bar, 0, having central lugs, c, on each end, which fit into apertures c in the ends of the side bars, is formed; or, a s also shown in this figure, the grasp-bar may be formed of wood and provided with a central pin, c,which fits into apertures e" in the ends of the side bars.
I claim as my invention-- 1. A shovel-handle having the socket-piece and side bars formed or wrought of a single piece of sheet metal and the socket-piece having but a single seam.
2. A shovel-handle having the socket-piece and side bars struck up or forged from a single piece of sheet metal, in combination with a separately-formed grasp-bar.
3. A shovel-handle consisting of the socketpiece and side bars struck up or forged from a single piece of metal, in combination with a grasp-bar connected with the side pieces by aninterlocking joint,substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
JAMES OTIS MAN TOR.
