UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES SULLIVAN, OF CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
T 0 0 L H A N D L E SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 637,045, dated November 14, 1899. Application filed May 12, 1899. Serial No. 716,502. (No model.)
all whom it 1nay concern:
Be it known that I,'JAMES SULLIVAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Concord, in the county of Merrimac and State of New Hampshire, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tool-Handles; 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 handles for any such tools as a screw-driver, gouge, or chisel, but is more especially adapted or essential to the latter.
The invention will be fully 'set forth in the following specification and claims and clearly illustrated in the drawings accompanying and forming a part of the same, of which- Figure 1 is an elevation representing a chisel having a handle provided with my improvements. Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation showing the construction and manner of applying my improvements to a tool-handle. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing my improvements in modified form.
This improved construction possesses two strong advantages over the ordinary construction of tool-handles. It can be struck hard blows even by a metal hammer without defacing its end, and it is so heavy that if dropped it will protect the tool from injury by striking the ground before the point or sharp edge of the said tool.
A represents a chisel, and B is its handle. The wooden tool-handles B when adapted to my improvements will be made fiat across their free end, as seen at b, and provided with I a central perforation b, and my improved protection-tip 0 is formed of metal and rounded ofi on its outside, as shown, its fiat face 0 conforming to the flattened end I) of the handle B and provided with a stem 0, adapted to enter the perforation b of said handle.
If preferred, the tip (3 maybe provided with a flange c*, as seen in Fig. 3, in order to keep the adjacent edge of the wood uniformly smooth and even, and the stem 0' may be made hollow, as shown in Fig. 2, so as to be filled, as at D, with a heavy metal, such as lead, for increasing the weight of that end of said handle for the purpose hereinbefore mentioned; but whether or not the stem 0 should be made hollow, so as to be loaded with a heavy metal,
, as described, the tip 0 will always protect the end of a tool-handle against splitting or becoming otherwise injured from being hammered.
Having described my improvements, what I claim is 1. A tool-handle formed of suitable wood having its top flat and provided with a central perforation, a metallic tip rounded on its outside and fiat on its under side, a hollow stem projecting from said under side into the perforated outer end of said handle, and a filling of lead or other heavy material.
2. A handle for mortisingchisels having its top flat and provided with a central perforation, a metallic tip having one side rounded and the other side flat to conform to the flat end of said handle, and provided with a stem adapted to be driven into the perforation in said handle.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JAMES SULLIVAN.
