ALEXANDER O. DECKER, OF KEOKUK, IOWA.
CURRY-COMB.
SPECIFICATION-forming part of Letters Patent No. 484,849, dated October 25, 1892. Application filed July 5, 1892. Serial No. 438,988. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ALEXANDER O. DECKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Keoknk, in the county of Lee and State of Iowa,
have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curry-Combs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relatesto curry-combs; and it consists in the novel construction of the same, as hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved comb, and Fig. 2 a horizontal sectional view of the same.
The body of the comb comprises an outer band A and a series of smaller bands B,-C, and D, located one within the other and of varying degrees of curvature, the general direction of the smaller bands beingtransverse of the body of the comb or at right angles to the handle E. These bands are made up of a narrow strip of steel notched 0r toothed along one or both edges, as may be preferred, and have their ends overlapped and fastened by rivets, as at a in Fig. 2. These overlapping ends are perforated, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, to receivethe cylindrical shank or stem 1) of the handle, said shank or stem having near its outer end laterally-projectinglugs or shoulders c to engage lateral slots in the outer band, substantially as in my former patent, No. 476,189, dated May 31, 1892. The stem or shank b is provided at its inner end with a pin or other fastening device and is encircled between two of the frames by a coiled spring, as in my former patent referred to. The spring is not essential, however, as the resiliency of the frame or band B is sufficient to keep the lugs in engagement with the slots formed in the outer band A. It will be noticed that all the bands touch at two opposite edges and are united to each other and to the outer band by means of rivets d, as clearly shown in both figures of the drawings.
By making the frame or body of the comb of a series of bands located one within the other and uniting them at two opposite edges, as shown, I find it only necessary to employ two rivets or fastening devices d, which effects a material saving in the time and labor required to assemble the various parts, the separate frames or bands being previously bent to proper form and having their overlapping ends united. By arranging the hanle stem or shank b to pass through all of the bands at an angle to their length, as shown, all tendency to tip or rock upon the rivets or fastenings d is prevented.
A comb constructed as herein shown and described is strong and well braced and will. be a peculiarly-good-wearing comb. Furthermore, by arranging the oval or elliptical frames one within the other and connecting them at their ends, as shown,I am enabled to dispense with spacing-blocks between the frames, which increase the cost and make the comb heavier.
While I have shown the body of the comb as having applied thereto a reversible handle, I do not wish to be understood as restricting myself to this combination, as it is obvious that the handle may be rigid without in any manner modifying the form of the body or combing portion of the comb.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. The herein-described curry-comb, comprising an outer band and a series of bands located one within the other and arranged within the outer band, all of the said bands being united one to the other at two opposite edges, and a handle.
2. In a curry-comb, the combination, with the outer band, of a series of smaller bands located Within the same and secured thereto and to each other at two opposite edges and- ALEXANDER C. DECKER.
