Description
'UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
WILLIAM A. OVERTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVED RlGGlNG-SCREW FOR TURNING IN DEAD-EYES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 44,741; dated October 18, 1864.
To all w/wrn/ t Inlay er1/worn.'
Beit known that I, WILLIAM A. OVERTON, of the city, county, andState ot' New York, have invented a new and Improved Rigging Screw or Clamp for Turning in Dead-Eyes; and I do hereby declare lthat the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same', reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specication, in which- Figure l is a plan or top view of my invention applied to its work; Fig. 2, a side view ot' the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention relates to a new and useful implement or device for adjusting or fitting the ropes of shrouding in the grooves of deadcyes, and which is technically termed turning in dead-eyes.77
The object of the invention is to obtain a device by which the work can be accomplished with great facility and in a much more thorough way than hitherto, the ropes heilig tted around the dead-eyes in a more compact and snugger manner.
A represents a dead-eye, constructed in the usual way, a being the lanyard-holes, and b the groove extending around its periphery.
B represents the rope, which is tted or adjusted in the groove around the dead-eye', and secured therein by wha-:t is technically termed a throatseizing,77 C.
D represents a metal clasp, which may be of wrought-iron. It is composed of three or more parts, connected together by joints c, said parts being curved longitudinally to correspond to the curvature ofthe periphery of the dead-eye, and having their inner surfaces made concave, to t snugly on the rope B.
The two upper parts, d d, of this clasp are provided at their outer ends with fianges or lugs e e, which project out from said parts, as shown clearly in Fig. 2.
E E represent two clamps, which are coIn posed each of two rods, ff, having eyes g at their inner ends, through which and the upper lanyard-hole, a, a holt, h, passes. The rods j' fot' each clamp are connected at their outer ends by a har, i, and through each bar a screw, F, passes. These screws F, at their inner ends, bear against bars Gr, which are fitted loosely on the rods f, and are pressed against the upper parts, d d, of the clasp D, under neath the flanges or lugs e e, by turning the screws F.
The clamps are at opposite sides of the dead-eye, and when the clasp D is adjusted to the rope and the screws F turned, it will be seen that the action of the bars G upon said clasp will cause the latter to dra-w or force the rope snugly into the groove b. When the rope is adjusted in the groove, the throat-seizing O is applied, which holds the rope around the dead-eye, and the clamps may then be rcmoved.
By this device it will be seen that the rope may be adj usted around the dead-eye with the greatest facility, but little time and labor being required in order to perform the'work.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The clasp D, composed of two or more parts, connected -together by joints c, inconnection with clamps E E, constructed to operate upon4 the clasp in the manner substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
