HAND-HOLD FOR ELEVATOR SHlPPER-ROPES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 450,697, dated April 21, 1891.
Application filed June 26, 1890.
T0 ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HERCULES SANCHE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hand-Holds for Shipper-Ropes of Elevators, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple, durable, and inexpensive hand-hold for the shipper or hand rope of an elevator, to be used as a protection for the hand of the operator or attendant within the elevatorcage.
It is my purpose, also, to provide a hand hold which shall be centered orheld in place automatically within the elevator-cage, and which may be divided, if desired, into two independent hand-holds normally free from contact with the shipper or hand rope, either of which may be used upon the upward or downward movement.
It is mypurpose, finally, to provide a handhold which is held normally free from the shipping-rope and which shall relieve the hands of the operator from the wear and tear ordinarily incurred.
To these ends my invention consists in the several novel features of construction and new combinations of parts hereinafter fully set forth, and then definitely set forth in the claims which follow this specification.
To enable others skilled in the art to understand and practice my invention, I will proceed to describe the same in detail, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a handheld constructed according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of Fig. 1 upon the line 0c 0:. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective of the shoes or foot-pieces through which the rope passes to the shipping mechanism. Fig. a is a perspective view showing a modification. Fig. 5 is a view showing the applica tion of the invention to an elevator, the elevator-cage being shown in dotted lines.
In the said drawings, the reference'numeral 1 denotes the elevator-cage, rising and falling within a well of the usual construction, and the numeral 2 designates the shipping-rope, which runs in the usual manner Serial No. 356,821. (No model.
of two semi-cylindrical parts 7, united by a longitudinal joint 8. At the upper and lower ends of the hand-hold or elsewhere thereon are applied metallic elasps 8, hinged together in the line of the joint 8, the hinged ends being bent inward to bring the axis of the hinge into the inner line of the joint. These clasps are riveted or otherwise fastened and are each provided with an eye 9. Said clasps also may be two or more in number. In order to center these parts in the elevator or cage and preserve them in substantially the same position with relation to the operator, I attach springs 12 and 13 to the eyes 9 in or upon the clasps riveted to the parts of the semicircular portions 7, and connect the other ends of these springs to the similar eyes 6 upon the separate parts 4. and 5 of the shoes, a like spring connection being made both below and above.
The hand-hold may be lined upon its interior face with rubber, leather, or other suitable material, or with rubber mingled or combined with other material, such as strong canvas, and, as already set forth, its body may be made of metal, wood, or other material and united with the interior lining by rivets, as shown in Fig. 5, or in any other preferred manner.
In ordinary constructions the interior lining of rubber or leather will possess sufficient elasticity to throw the two-part hinged handhold open and release it from all practical frictional contact with the shipper-rope.
I may substitute for the hinged two-part hand-hold (shown in Fig. 1) the longitudinally-cleft elastic hand-hold illustrated in Fig. 4. This device is constructed of rubber or of rubber having one or more plies of thereon is a han d-hold 7, which may be formed strong canvas combined therewith by vul canization or otherwise, although I may substitute for the canvas any other material adapted to the purpose. The body 14. is integral, save that it is divided upon one side by a longitudinal cleft 15, extending from end to end. At the extremities of the handhold are attached clasps or clips 16, which are shown as formed in two parts, which are united by a hinge 17; but these hinges are not essential. The clasps are used for the purpose of providing convenient means for the attachment of the eyes 18, to which the springs 12 and 13 are connected.
hat I claim is- 1. A hand-hold for the shipper-rope of an elevator, consisting of two rigid sections hinged together at one side and open at the opposite side and a lining secured to the inside of the rigid sections and composed of rubber, the inherent elasticity of which acts to normally hold the rigid sections separated to free them from contact with the shipperrope, substantially as described.
2. A hand-hold for the shipper-ropes of elevators, consisting of a suitable tubular part held centered within the elevator-cage or retained Within the reach of the operator by means of springs, substantially as described.
3. A hand-hold for the shipping-ropes of elevators, consisting of a longitudinally-divided cylinder having its two parts hinged or pivoted one to the other and provided with an interior elastic lining by which said parts are normally prevented from making frictional contact with the shipper-rope, in combination with two independent springs connected to the floor and ceiling of the cage and to the extremities of the hand-hold, substantially as described.
4. In an elevator, the combination, with a hand-hold surrounding the shipper-rope, of springs connected to. the floor and ceiling of the cage and to the extremities of the handhold, substantially as described.
5. In an elevator the combination, with a hand-hold having clasps or clips upon its ends which are provided with eyes, of springs connected to similar eyes formed or mounted upon shoes which surround the shipper-rope and are fastened to the floor and ceiling of the cage, said springs being also connected to the eyes upon the clasps on the hand-hold, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
