SHEET METAL KNOB.

SHEET-.Nl ETAL KNOB.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 558,862, dated April 21, 1896.
Application filed December 12, 1891. Serial No. 414,889. (No model.)
State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sheet Metal Knobs, of which the following is a speeiiieation, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of the same, in which- Figure l represents a side elevation of a completed knob embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same. Fig. 8 is a detached and sectional view of the piece forming the crown before it is applied to the base in the completed knob. Fig. 4. is a detached and sectional view of the expanding plate by which the wings of the base-section are held from collapse. Fig. 5 is a top view of the same. Fig. 6 is a detached seetional view of the base. Fig. 7 is a top view of the same.
Similar letters refer to similar parts in the different iigures.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, A denotes the base-section of the knob, and B the crown-section. The base-section A is stamped or pressed into the desired form or shape from a piece of sheet metal by means of suitable dies and punches in the usual and well-known manner, the base-section shown in the accompanying drawings being flaring or bell-shaped, the smaller end A being closed and provided with ahole A2 to receive an attaching-bolt. The larger end A3 is open and is closed by the crown-section B, the edge B being turned over the flaring or open end A3 of the base-section A, as represented in sectional view in Fig. 2. The base-section A is provided with openings A4, extending from the edge A3 downward into the body of the base-section, the flaring end of the basesection being divided by the openings A4 into a series of wings A5, a sufficient amount of stock being removed to form the-openings AJL to enable the wings Ato be pressed into the flaring or bell shape without requiring excessive drawing or upsetting of the metal forining the wings, and in order to accomplish this result without multiplying the number of openings A4 the wings A5 are left separate at the edge A3, or with a space or opening between the points a d. In order to prevent the Wings A5 from being collapsed, l insert a dish-shaped plate O within the open or flared end of the base-section A prior to the application of the crown-section B. The plate O is provided with flaring sides O', the outer surface of which is made to t the inner surface of the edge A3 of the base-section, so that the edge O2 will substantially correspond with the edge A3 of the base-section. After the plate C is inserted within the flaring end of the base-section A the crown-section B is attached by turning the edge B over the edge A3 of the base-section, the crown-section being drawn over and brought in contact with the edge O2 of the plate O, so as to hold the plate O in position firmly pressed against the inner side of the edge A3. The plate O is thus held from longitudinal movement within the knob by means of the flared side C' resting against the flared edge A3 of the base and the edge O2 bearing against the crown-section B, the disk-shaped bottom O3 forming a brace within the wings A5 to resist outward pressure upon the wings, enabling the base-section A to be made of thin sheet metal, thereby effecting a great saving in lightness, cost of material, and a corresponding decrease in the cost of shaping the base into the desired form.
The employment of a plate O, provided with a flaring side O resting against the ilaring edge of the base, facilitates the construction of the knob in uniting the base and crown sections. lVhen the base-section is formed, the diameter of its open end is liable to vary, owing to the elasticity of the wings and the amount of set given to the metal in the operation of shaping the base, so that when the base-section is removed from the shapingdies the diameter of its open end may correspond closely to the diameter of the dies, or it may be larger, owing to the springing apart of the wings. Vhatever the diameter of the base-section may be when the plate O is placed within it the flaring sides of the plate will rest against the flaring ends of the wings, thereby properly centering the plate and holding it in a plane at right angles with the axis of the base-section.
If the diameter of the open end of the base- IOO section be smaller than they diameter of theV iiarin g sides of the plate, the Vertical pressure applied upon the crown-section Will force the plate into the base-section, pushing its flaring sides over the inner surface of the Wings and crowding the Wings apart; but in case the diameter of the open end be greater than the diameter of the iiaring sides of the plate the horizontal pressure applied in turning the edge B of the crownsection over the edge A3 of the base-section Will compress the wings and crowd the plates C upward until the edge of its flaring sides is brought into contact With the crown-section B.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a sheet-metal knob, the combination with a base-section havin g Wings, and a croWntact With the inner surface of the crown-section, said dish-shaped plate being held from longitudinal movement in one direction by the conformation of the base-section, and in the opposite direction by the contact of its sides With the inner surface of the croWnsection, substantially as described.
Dated the 10th day of December, 1891.
