GUY'EI HOLLIS, OF BENTON HARBOR, MICHIGAN.
CLOCK-HAND REMOVER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 478,009, dated June 28, 1892.
Application filed August 24, 1891. Serial No. 103,623. (No model.)
. andI do declare the following to be a full,
clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same,
. referencebeing had to the accompanyin gdrawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective view, and Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section.
This invention has relation to tools for removing hands from clocks, the object being to provide a tool of this character by the use of which the clock-hands may be readily and quickly removed without injury thereto or to the clock; and the invention consistsin the novel construction and combination of parts, as hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, the letter A designates the upper jaw, and B the lower jaw, each of which is provided with the curved handle extensions a a. The upper surface of the lower jaw is provided with a perforated lug or projection b, which loosely engages a socket or seat formed in the under side of the upper jaw. A pin 0, passing through perforations in the side walls of and intersecting this slot and also engaging the perforation of lug b, forms a pivotal connection between the jaws. At their forward ends the upper and lower jaws are provided with the coincident V-shaped recesses or slots 01, forming the claws of the tool. The points of these claws on both jaws are slightly turned up. The upper jaw on its upper surface near dial with the lower jaw bearing thereon, the
V-shaped coincident recesses in the claws engaging the post or stem. The handles of the jaws are then pressed toward each other, causing the claws to open or move away from each other, and consequently forcing the hands from their seats. In this manner a firm easy action is obtained as the lower claw takes a bearing 011 the dial, while the upper claw bears against the'hand, the spring G which normally holds the claws together being compressed and serving to prevent any sudden movement or jerk which would be likely to injure the face or hands-or strain the post.
- Having thus described this invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In a watchmakers tool, the combination, with a lower member or jaw having a lug or projection on its upper face, of an upper member or jaw having a socket in its lower face pivotally engaged by said lug or projection, a pivot-pin extending through said lug or. projection and through the socket and forming a connection between said members or jaws, whereby when their handle portions are brought together their claw portions are spread, coincident V-shaped recesses in the forward ends of said jaws, and a spring seated between said members at the rear of their pivotal connection, substantially as specified. In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GUY E. HOLLIS.
