UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CORYDON E. CRANDALL, OF CANANDAIGUA, NEW YORK.
FRUIT-JAR HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 439,931, dated November 4, 1890.
Application filed June 27, 1890. Serial No. 356,954- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, OoRYDoN E. CRANDALL, of Oanandaigua, in the county of Ontario and State of New York, have invented anew and useful Improvement in Fruit-Jar Hold ers, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and shown in the accompanying drawings.
My invention is an improved device for holding f ruitj ars whilehot from thecontained fruit for the purpose of screwing on or affixing the cap or cover of the jar in the act of sealing the same. The device is provided with a projecting handle to be held in the left hand while the cap or cover is put in place upon the jar by the right hand.
The inventionis hereinafter fully described, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan of the device with parts longitudinally sectioned; Fig. 2, a side view, seen as indicated by arrow in Fig. l; and Fig. 3, a modification of the form of the pad.
Referring to the parts shown, A is a circular hoop, preferably of metal; B, the handle, and O a screw-clamp. The hoop is formed with an offset part a, forming an internal recess 13. The shaft or screw 0 of the clamp is threaded within the hoop at the middle of the offset part a and provided with a hand-wheel (1 without the hoop. At its inner end the clamp is formed with a head 6, covered with a cap f, of some soft material, as leather, cloth, or india-rubber, to bear against the jar D.
The hoop A, which is designed to pass over the jar, is not a continuous unbroken ring, but is'divided at g opposite the oifset part a, the two ends being formed into tan gs h h and bent outward in parallel positions, as shown, the handle B being driven thereon. The construction is such that the handle and the clamp are diametrically opposite, with their axes in the same straight line. Opposite the clamp, upon the interior surface of the hoop, is placed a pad 2', of soft material, to prevent the hoop from coming in contact with the jar. This pad may be of leather, india-rubber, or similar substance, and is formed with a shank is, extending outward between the tangs h h. The elasticity of the part 70 serves to hold the tangs within the handle by a yielding pressure, and in turn the tangs, being pressed toward each other by the handle, serve to hold the pad in place on the hoop. The extreme ends of the pad may, if necessary, be secured to the hoop by some adhesive substance. These ends of the pads are sometimes formed with enlarged parts Z, so as to hold the jar within three bearing-points Z Z and f, which serve to hold the jar more firmly.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A device for holding fruit-jars, consisting of a circular hoop formed with a recess 1), in combination with a clamp and a handle for the hoop, the latter being divided at one side and formed into parallel tangs to enter the handle, substantially as shown and described.
2. A holder for fruit-jars, consisting of a hoop, in combination with a clamp, a handle for the hoop, the latter being divided and formed into tangs to enterthe handle, and a pad 2', formed with a shank k to enter the space between the tan gs, substantially as shown and described.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand, this 24th day of May, 1890, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
CORYDON E. ORANDALL.
