GEORGE O. COPPER AND DAVID F. COX, OF SANDBORN, INDIANA.
WIRE- STRETCHING TOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 485,611, dated November 8, 1892.
Application filed July 12, 1892- Serial No. 439,766- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern .Be it known that we, GEORGE O. COPPER and DAVID F. COX, citizens of the United States, residing at Sandborn,in the county of 5 Knox and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wire- Stretching Tools; and We do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable I0 others skilled in the art .to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The special object'of the invention is to make a tool by which barbed Wire may be stretched quickly and broken Wire may be easily mended without kinking the wire or allowing it to slip.
The invention willfirst be described in connection with the drawings, and then pointed out in the claim.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective view of our barbed-wire tool; and Figs. 2, 3, and 4 show its application and use.
In the drawings,A represents afork, whichis made of steel; B, the handle to which it is attached; 0, a chain hung to the fork near the handle and carrying a hook D; E, a pivoted link in the non-forked end of the handle, and F an anchor-rod formed into a hook G at its free end and jointed at the other end t0 the link E.
We take hold of the first wire with the fork hold of the next Wire with the hook I) tid press the forkAagainst the post as a fulcrum and anchor to the previously-stretched wire by means of the hook G on rod F, as clearly 4o shown in Fig. 3 in dotted lines.
In treating broken wires we take hold of one end of the broken wire with the fork A and the other end with the hook D on the chain 0, as shown in Fig. 4, and drawing them together anchor them with the rod F, so as to be ready for splicing.
What we claim as new and of our invention is The handle 13, having the forkA at one end, 5c the hook D and chain C, suspended therefrom near the fork, and at the other end the pivoted link E and hook-rod G F, all substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures 5 5 in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE c. COPPER. DAVID E. COX.
