Definitions
- a handle for hand-held implements having a coating 1 117/1612 /61 C, 1 5/ J of synthetic material on a core member.
- the coating [51] Int. Cl. ..A011 1/22 material may have reinforcing'fibers or woven fabric, [58] Field of Search....' ..145/61 C, 61 J, 61 R; or both, worked into it in any shape which can be produced and in any desired or defined direction and 1 Claim, 2 Drawing Figures PATENTEUJAH23 197s 3,712,659
- the present invention relates to a handle for handheld tools, such as hoes, pick axes, picaroons, hammers, shovels, etc., and for sport implements, such as ice axes, handles for paddles, etc.
- Handles are also known which are provided with an insulating or impact-cushioning hand portion constructed of rubber of some other known material.
- An improved handle is provided according to the present invention which is constructed of a core having a coating of asynthetic material.
- the core of the handle consists of any type of known wood or of a solid or hollow body constructed from a synthetic material or a metal.
- the coating is permanently connected to the core and preferably consists of an epoxy resin. Reinforcing fibers or woven fabric, or both, may be workedinto the coating material in any shape which can be produced and in any desired or defined direction and position.
- the coating may be of one or a plurality of colors, which colors may be luminescent.
- FIG. I is a side elevation view of an ice axe which may use a handle according to the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view on an enlarged scale and taken generally along line 2-2 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. I shows a handle according to the present in-' vention which is being used with, for example, an ice axe.
- FIG. 2 shows a cross section of the handle taken generally along the line 2 2 of FIG. I.
- the handle according to the present invention consists of an inner core a and an outer coating b.
- the inner core a may be constructed in a known manner from any'suitable, known type of a wood, or from a solid or hollow synthetic material or'a metal. It is possible according to the present invention to construct a handle which is of lighter weight than possible with the construction of previous handles, particularly when a hollow synthetic or metal core is used. This type of construction makes it possible to exert a stronger vital force when using the implement.
- the outer coating b of the handle is preferably an epoxy resin. Any suitable, known epoxy resin may be used for this purpose and may be applied to the core in any suitable manner so as to set after having been applied. In addition, reinforcing fibers or woven fabrics, or both, may, in a known manner, be worked into the coating material in any shape which can be produced and in any desired and/or defined direction and position.
- the coating preferably covers the entire surface,
- handles covered according to the present invention are comfortable to hold in'the hand. They may, for example, be shaped to enhance this feature.
- the handles may be easily and permanently colored. This feature minimizes annoying mixups and makes the implements easier to locate when lost or used as markers. In addition, they can even be produced in camouflage colors for military purposes. If desired, the coloring of the handles can be luminescent.
- a handle for manual work tools, sports implements or the like which have an eye for the reception of a portion ofa handle, consisting of;
- a. a relatively long, narrow and hollow core member made of a material selected from a group consisting of wood, plastic and metal, and said core member having oppositely directed end portions along the longitudinal axis thereof;
