RAI LROAD-TOOL.
-SPIE]tJIFIGAZLION forming part of Letters Patent No. 535,805, dated March 12, 1895.
Application filed February 19, 1894:- Serial No. 500,780. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, BERNARD MOLLOY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Golconda, in the county of Humboldt and State of Nevada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Railroad-Tools; and I do hereby 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.
This invention relates to a combination tool for use of railroad trackmen, and consists of.
the construction and arrangement of the several parts which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
The drawing shows a perspective view of the improved tool.
The tool comprises five separate devices in one structure. On one end is a claw-bar 1 formed by two outwardly extending arms 1 with an intermediate throat 1, the upper edges of the said arms l being rounded or curved and the inner edges straight, and in rear of the said arms on the shank of the tool .is a heel 1 so that when the tool is turned over the said heel 1 is brought to bear upon the adjacent surfaces .and the arms 1 slip under the opposite side of a bolt head or other device. The throat I is continued in a straight transverse plane partially through the ends of the tool and the end of the tool beneath the arms 1 is cut away to form a socket 2 which contributes to the adaptation of the implement to its several uses, and at 5' the lower portion of the said socket is a forward projection 2 which extends out equally to the outer termination of the arms 1 and is stepped as at 2 to form a wrench 2 for square nuts, and a wrench 3 for nuts of a larger size, the inner straight edges of the arms l acting with the plane surfacesformed by the steps 2 to engage opposite sides of the nut in either instance. The formation as thus far described is located in a head on one end of ashank, and at the opposite end of the said shank are an adz 4 and a hammer 5.
The tool can be made in different weights and length according to the use required, and avoids the necessity of carrying a number of tools.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is-- The herein described tool, having a shank with a head at one end provided with a pair of parallelarms with an intermediate throat, and an adjacent heel to form a claw-bar, a ledge or extension parallel to said arms, provided with stops to form wrenches for nuts of different sizes, substantially as and for the purpose described. 7
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
