F ELLIOTT COMBINATION TOOL.
Patented Feb. 9, 1897.
FRANK ELLIOTT, OF NORTH VERNON, INDIANA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO JOHN G. SOHIERLING, JR, OF SAME PLACE.
COMBINATION-TOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 576,563, dated February 9, 1897.
Application filed August 17, 1896.
To all whont it man! concern.-
Be it known that I, FRANK ELLIOTT, a citizen of the United States, residing at North Vernon, in the county of Jennings and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combination-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.
My invention relates to gages to be used by carpenters for placing hinges upon doors, shutters, &c.
It consists of the peculiar parts which are more fully described in the specification following, reference being had to the drawings accompanying and forming a part thereof.
Figure 1 is a plan View of my device. Fig. 2 is an end View of my device. Fig. 3 is an elevation of the same. Figs. 4, 5, and 6 are detailed Views of the main parts of my device.
The object of my device is to furnish a con- Venient and handy tool for the useof carpenters when placing hinges upon doors, shutters, or in similar places.
This gage may have its parts so set that the outline of the recess to be cut into the wood for the reception of the hinge may be accurately located upon both the door and the jamb and by which any number of doors may be laid out so that they will all correspond exactly. It consists of three different parts. The first or the base-plateA is a flat plate having upon one edge and near each end thereof side projecting rectangular flanges or lugs B, projecting wholly beyond the edge of the plate; that is, the inner surface of these lugs are made to coincide with the outer edge surface of the plate A. Upon the opposite side of the plate are two raised guiding-strips O, extending across the same. These do not extend all the way across the plate, but are stopped off a little to one side of the center. That edge of the plate opposite the one carrying the lugs B is the edge which is free from the guidingstrips 0. Upon this same edge of the plate and upon the same side which has the guidingstrip Ois laid out a rule for convenience of the user. The second piece consists of the plate 1), which is of an L shape in cross-sec- Serial No. 602,935. (No model.)
tion. The long arm of the L fits upon the surface of the plate A. This surface of the plate D has two guiding-grooves 0' extending across the same and matte to fit snugly over the guiding-strips O. The short arm of the L extends down past the edge of the plate A and has two rectangular holes I), adapted to receive the lugs B upon the plate A. These lugs B are made of the same thickness as the short arm D" of the plate D. They may bea little less in thickness, but should not be any greater. 7
The central portion of the guiding-groove O is cut entirely through, forming a slot d. Through these slots and screwing into the plate A extend two thumb or set screws E. These serve to clamp the two securely in any position to which they may be adjusted.
The third member of the gage is a plate F. This plate has a guiding-groove F extending across the inside thereof and located centrally of the same. The plate D has a guidestrip 0 centrally located thereon upon the upper surface, so as to engage this guidinggroove. The central portion of this guidinggroove is cut entirely through, forming the slot F. Through this slot and screwing into the plate D is the thum b-screw G for clamping the plates F and D together.
My device will be made of thin metal plates,
preferably of steel or brass, and nicely finished with nickel plating, 850., so as to present a neat appearance. In setting-the same for use the plate F will be set at such a distance fromv the edge of the plate D as to gage the depth of cuts for bedding the hinges. The plate D is set upon the plate A at such a point that when placed upon the edge of the door with the edge of the plate D in contact with the side thereof the adjacent edge of the plateA will be in position for locating the width of the recess on the back side thereof. WVhen reversed and the plate A placed upon the edge, it acts as a try-square to mark the ends of the recess. The scale upon the edge of the plate A will enable one to locate the other end of the recess. In locating the back side of the recess on the door-jamlo, which is itself recessed back, the plates A and D are set so that when placed thereon with the lugs B in contact with one edge of the jamb the outer surface of the arm I)" of the plate D will be in position for locating the rear edge of the recess.
This gage forms a convenient and handy gage for the purpose, and one which takes the place of two or three ordinary carpenters tools, which would otherwise need to be used. It also makes it possible to lay out all the doors and jambs exactly alike, and makes it possible to do this much quicker than can be done with the ordinarycarpenters tools, thus making a better job and saving time. It is also simple and can be made very cheaply, making it possible for every carpenter to have it, and easy to carry.
To enable the gage-plate F to be accurately set for any particular depth of recess, small scales H may be marked upon the upper surface of the plate D at each end of the gage F. These scales will be found convenient for setting the gage F.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of the base-plate having side lugs near each end thereof extending in the same direction and projecting entirely beyond the side edge of said base-plate, with an L-shaped plate, guides upon said plates permitting a cross movement of one upon the other, the short arm of the L-plate having openings therein to receive the lugs upon the base-plate, and means for clamping the two plates together.
2. The combination of the base-plate having side lugs near each end thereof extending in the same direction, with an L-shaped plate, guides upon said plates permitting a cross movement of one upon the other, the short arm of the L-shaped plate having openings therein to receive the lugs of the base-plate, means for clamping the said plates together, and a third gage-plate mounted upon the long arm of the L-shaped plate, and provided with means for adjusting it thereon.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
FRANK ELLIOTT.
