UNITED STATES JOHN WILLIAM MILLER, OF DAYTON, OHIO.
PATENT OFFICE.
.ClGAR-PIERCER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 522,076, dated J une 26, 1894. Application filed March 13,1894. Serial No. 503,433. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, JOHN WILLIAM MILLER, of Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Oigar-Piercer, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
It is desirable to pierce cigars laterally,
rather than to cut off the tips, as, if ,the tips are severed the cigar gets out of shape and unrolls and, moreover, the smoke is likely to burn the tongue and make it sore. The cigar tips cannot be conveniently pierced by hand; and the object of my invention is to produce a very simple and easily operated machine which has a socket to receive a cigar tip, and which has a depressible top, the depression of which actuates a pair of blades and pushes them laterallyinto the socket and into the tip contained therein. A further object of my invention is to provide means for returning all the parts to normal position after the cigar tip has been pierced.
To these ends my invention consists of certain features of construction and combination of parts, which will be hereinafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a central vertical section of the machine embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan on the line 22 of Fig. 1, of the machine. Fig. 3 is a detail sectional view showing the piercing blades forced into a cigar tip. a I
The machine is provided with a suitable stand 10 which is hollow and preferably cylindrical, but not necessarily so, this stand resting on a suitable base 11, and above it is. a depressible top or finger plate 12, which has centrally therein a socket 13 projecting preferably above the plate 12 and to a considerable extent below the plate, the socket being shaped so as to approximately fit a cigar tip.
The socket 13 is, at its lower end and on opppsite sides slotted longitudinally, as shown at 14, so as to receive the points of the blades 15 which move in slotted guides 16 attached to the finger plate and have, on their upper edges,'shoulders 17 to engage the guides and limit the outward movement of the blades.
The blades 15 are pivoted at their outer ends, 4
as shown at 18, to the stand 10 and they have enlarged central portions 19 which are piv-.
oted to the spring rods 20 which project downward through a cross brace 21 in the stand and arenormally pushed upward by spiral springs 22 which encircle the rods and press against pins 23 therein. The pressure of the springs normally raises the blades and the finger plate 12. To prevent any lateral displacement of the finger plate it is provided with depending pins 24 which slide through vguides 25 on the inner wall of the stand 10,
of the finger is removed the springs 22 raise.
the plate 12 and blades 15 to theirnormal position.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A cigar piercer comprising the hollow base, the finger plate thereabove and provided with a depending slotted socket for the cigar, slotted guides depending from the plate at opposite sides of the socket, guide rods extending down from the plate through guides in the base, blades pivoted at their outer ends in the upper portion of the base and projecting through the guide and socket slots, vertical rods mounted in bearings in the base and pivoted at their upper ends to the middle porrods upwardly, substantially as set forth.
