MILTON D. GO OD, OF ABILENE, KANSAS.
CAKE-TURNER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 606,205, dated June 28, 1898.
Application filed March 10, 1897.
To ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MILTON D. GOOD, a eitizen of the United States, residing at Abilene, in the county of Dickinson and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and usefullmprovements in Cake-Turners; and I do 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, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which I form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to those oake-turners in which the handle consists of a wire frame so constructed that when compressed by the hand in which it is held the lifting-plate will be turned over. I
The object of my device is to greatly cheapen and simplify the parts and render them much more easy to manufacture, more strong, and durable. I
To this end my invention consists in the peculiar features and combination of parts more fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the claims. v
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective top view of my complete invention; Fig. 2, a similar view showing the handle portion compressed and the lifting-plate turned over, as in the position of turning a cake. Fig. 3 is an edge view, and Fig. 4 a bottom view.
The reference-letter a denotes a liftingplate which is made of a single piece of sheet metal, preferably tin. b represents the handle, which is composed of a single piece of wire bent substantially V-shaped in general outline, with a coil 0 constituting a spring at the rear end. The forward ends of the frame of the handle are bent inwardly to form elbows d and d, terminating in forwardlyextending pivots g and g, which extend through holes e and e in a transverse hollow rib f, bent up out of the rear end of the plate. It is the pecnliarity of this pivotal connection that produces the turning of the plate when the handle is compressed. The rib f on the rear end of the lifting-plate is U-shaped in cross-sew tion to form bearings in which the pivots g and g are confined. The left-hand pivot g Serial No. 626,792. (No model.)
extends transversely through both of the side walls f andf of the rib f, and the shorter pivot g extends only through the onewallf of said rib. The pivot g is above the pivot g, so that when the resilient sides of the handle are compressed, as in Fig. 2, the lines of force of the two pivotal points will be out of coincidence and permitted to move past each other in the arc of a circle to reverse the plate.
The operation of the device may be briefly described as follows: When the two sides of the handle portion are compressed by the hand of the operator, the pivots g and will move toward and past each other in the are of a circle until the plate becomes reversed,whereupon one of the pivots -will come in contact with the opposite shoulder, which servesas a stop. When it is desiredto revolve the plate from right to left, the right-hand side of the handle should be pressed in an upward and the left hand in a downward direction to each other. \Vhen it is desired to turn the plate from left to right, the left-hand side of the handle should, be compressed upward and the right-hand side downward. A little practice will enable the operator to perform such movements intuitively.
Having thus described my invention, what Patent, is-
1. In a cake-turner, a turning-plate provided with a transversely extending U- shaped rib, in combination with a compressible handle provided with two pivots attached to the sides of the rib and being pivoted off center in therib, substantially as described.
2. In a cake-turner, the combination with a turning-plate having a transverse hollow rib, of a handle composed of asingle piece of wire forminga spring, and having longitudinal pivots at its forward ends, said pivots having bearings in the sides of the rib at points .I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters with holes for the reception of the pivots, whereby the handle is connected directly to the plate, substantially as described.
4. In a cake-turner, a reversible liftingplate provided with a U-shaped' rib, in combination with a compressible handle having I forwardly-projecting pivots operating within the walls of the rib, substantially as described.
5. In a cake-turner, a reversible plate provided with a transversely-extending hollow rib, in combination with a compressible handle having inturned ends 61, and d, and forwardly-projecting ends g, and g, constituting two pivots, one being prolonged and passed through both walls of the rib, and the other passed through one wall in the manner and for the purposes substantially as described.
6. In a cake-turner, the combination with a reversible plate of an upturned hollow rib forming a shoulder, and a compressible handle having inturned portions provided with forwardly-projecting pivots operating in the rib, substantially as described.
7. In a cake-turner, a reversible liftingplate provided with a hollow transverse rib, in combination with a wire handle having its forward ends formed into pivots, one of which is prolonged to extend through both sides of the rib, and the other made shorter to pass through one side only of the rib, both being arranged oft center in relation to each other, substantially as described.
In witness whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
MILToN D. GOOD.
