HARRY E. KELLEY, OF NIAGARA FALLS, ASSIGNOR TO THE ONEIDA COMMUNITY, (LIMITED,) OF COMMUNITY, NEIV YORK.
AN l MAL-T RAP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 409,468, dated August 20, 1889.
Application filed January 11, 1889. Serial No. 296,084- (No model) To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY, E. KELLEY, of Niagara Falls, in the county of Niagara, in the State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Anim al-Traps, of which the following, taken in connection wit-11 the accompanying drawings, is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention has reference to the class of animal-traps in which spring-actuated jaws are hinged to posts on the base-plate or frame and close over a bait-pan, which is also hinged to a post on the frame of the trap.
The purpose of this invention is to form the aforesaid posts in an expeditious manner and at the same time render them more secure and durable in the operation of the trap; and to that end the invention consists, essentially, in forming the post and its attaching-rivet of a blank stamped out of sheet metal, as hereinafter more fully described, and specifically set forth in the claims.
In the'annexed drawings, Figure 1 is an end view of a trap provided with my improved pan-post and jaw-post. Fig. 2 is a detached perspective view of a single bait pan post embodying my invention. Figs. 3 and 4 illustrate my invention embodied, respectively, in a double bait-pan post and in a jaw-post; and Figs. 5 and (Bare plan views of i the blanks from which the double bait-pan post and jaw-post are formed, respectively.
II represents the base ofthe trap, to which are secured two posts 13, to which the jaws D D are hinged, and a post A, to which the bait-pan P is connected in the usual and wellknown manner. The jaw-postB has integral with it the rivets c c, by which it is secured to the base II, which is perforated for the reception of said rivets. Said post and its rivets I form of a blank stamped out of suitable sheet metal, which blank consists of an elongated plate B, provided with a notch 12 in the center of one of its longitudinal edges and with prongs O O on the opposite edge, as illustrated in Fig. 6 of the drawings. This blank is bent at right angles and in one and the same direct-ion on the dotted lines (Z (Z, so
that the two end portions of the plate form two walls h h, standing parallel side by side, as shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings. Each of said end portions is provided with two perforations e, which coincide with thoseof the other end portion when the blank is bent into the shape aforesaid. The ends of the jawsD D are also perforated, and are inserted between the walls h h of thepost, and are hinged thereto by pins passing through the perforations of said parts.
The bait-pan post A, I also form of ablank stamped out'of sheet metal, and when the attaching end of the baitpan is to straddle the post I make the blank of the form shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings; but when a duplex post is required I form said post of a blank consisting of an elongated plate A, terminating with the prongs C O, as shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings, which blank I bend at right angles and in one and the same direction on the dotted lines I) b, which are respectively equidistant from the opposite ends of the plate A. The blank is perforated outside of and equidistant from the lines Z) I), as shown at t t, and when the blank is bent as aforesaid the perforations are directly opposite and in line with each other, the bait-pan being hinged to said post by a pin passing through the perforations of the post and through a perforation in the shank of the bait-pan.
Having described my invention,what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
1. In an animal-trap, the pan-post. A and its rivets c a, formed in one piece of a blank stamped out of sheet metal and consisting of the elongated plate A, terminating with the prongs C O, bent at right angles and in one and the same direction 011 the lines I) Z), and perforated outside of and equidistant from said lines, substantially as described and shown.
2. In an animal-trap, the jaw-post B and its rivets c 0, formed in one piece of a blank stamped out of sheet metal and consisting of the elongated plate B, provided with the notch 01 in the center of one of its longitudinal edges, and with the prongs 0 0011 the op- Niagara, in the State of N eW York, this 3d posite edge, and bent at right angles andl in day of January, 1889.
one and the same direction on the lines 6 d, T
substantially as described and shown. HARRX KELLEY In testimony whereof I have hereunto WVitnesses:
signed my name, in the presence of two Wit- C. F. GEYER,
