SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 718,311, dated January 13, 1903. Application iiled April 5, 1902. Serial No. 101,573. (No model.)
T0 tl/J wiz/0m, t may concern:
Be it known that I, ADONIRAM JUDsoN CAMPBELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Media, in the county of Delaware and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sad-Irons, of.
which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sad-irons; and the primary object of the same is to simplify and improve the means for holding a detachable handle to the body of the iron, and, secondarily, to have the said handle of such construction that it may be :readily applied to iron-bodies now well known in the art.
With these and other objects and advantages in view the invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts, which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a sad-iron embodying the features of the invention and showing the handle in locked connection with the body of the iron. Fig. 2 is a partial longitudinal vertical section of the iron as shown by Fig. 1, illustrating the handle as locked to the iron-body in full lines and released in dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section taken in the plane of the line 3 3, Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view of the detached handle. l
Similar numerals of reference are employed to indicate corresponding parts in the several views. J
It is mainly the purpose of the present improvement to provide a detachable handle which will be applicable to and t in ironbodies made on what is known in the art as the Potts principle, (see patent to Potts, No. 113,448, April 4, 1871,) which embodies many patterns or shapes, but all having the same general construction or elements for engagement with a handle.
The numeral 1 designates an iron-body, shaped as usual, and which may be of any dimensions or proportions. The top of the said body 1 is formed with a central longitudinal groove 2, into which opens the upper portion of a central socket 3, having a rod or pin 4, extending transversely across the upper portion thereof.
The handle forming the gist of the present invention comprises a semicircular or othershaped grip 5, which is usually constructed from suitable wood and has end caps 6 to strengthen the same and protect the terminals against wear. In the present improved construction a spring-plate 7 is terminally secured against t-he caps 6 and the plate and caps are secured to the ends of the grip 5, the said plate havingacentral slot 8 cut therethrough and coinciding with a similar slot 9, formed in a lower asbestos layer or shield 10, which deiiects the heat radiation from the iron-body below and not only materially protects the spring-plate 7, but also the hand The opposite extremities ofvr the operator. of the plate 7 and asbestos shield 10 are secured to the ends of the grip 5 by screws or and also holding the asbestos shield 10 and the spring-plate 7 at a suitable elevation above the top portion of the iron. A double wire hook 15 movably depends through the slots 8 and 9, respectively, of the plate 7 and shield 10 and has its free terminal so shaped as to rmly lock against the rod or pin 4 when properly adjusted to come into engagement with the latter. The hook 15 depends from an upper loop 16, extending over the upper side of the plate 7 and having its outer terminal held by one of the caps 6. The loop 16 and the hook 15' are resilient,'and engaging the inner terminal of the loop above the hook is an eccentric locking device formed of Wire and having a central tongue 17 rotatably bearing in the said inner end of the loop and also provided with opposite fulcrum extensions 18, adapted to be brought into contact with the spring-plate 7, the said extensions having legs 19 continuing therefrom and terminally secured to a handle or grip 20. It will be observed that the hook is provided with an eccentric wire locking attachment comprising the tongue 17 and the fulcrum extensions 18, the said locking attachment being rendered effective by the resilient nature of the plate 7, on which it works.
ICO
In the operation of the device the handle is applied to the iron-body, with the hook 15in the position shown in dotted lines, and when the said hook is in this position it is below the plane of the rod or pin 4. The anges 13 when the handle is applied mainly pass in between the opposite walls of the groove 2 and contact with the bottom of said groove, and hence a reliable bearing exists at each end of the handle to prevent the latter from shifting laterally in opposite directions. After the part-s of the handle have been so disposed in relation to the iron-body the eccentric locking attachment is pulled over to the position shown by full lines in Figs. 1 and 2 and' the terminal of the hook 15 is drawn up against the under portion of the rod or pin 4, thereby firmly locking the handle to the ironhody. When the eccentric locking attachment is pulled over from the dotted-line position to the full-line position, (shown by Fig. 2,) the plate 7 yields under the pressure, and when said attachment is fully over in its locking position the legs 19 contact with the said spring-plate 7. This plate 7 operates to hold the hook 15 in iirm engagement with the rod or pin 4 until the eccentric locking attachment is again thrown over into the dottedliue position, when the handle may be readily detached and similarly applied to another iron-body.
The improved device will be found exceptionally convenient and is of a strong and durable nature, and in view of the fact that the hook 15 is the only working part that depends below the spring-plate 7 and the asbestes shield 10 the usual form of iron-body hereinbefore referred to does not have to be modified in the least to adapt it for use with the improved handle.
Having thus fullydescribed the invention, what is claimed as new is 1. In a sad-iron, the combination with an iron-body having a cent-ral socket and an upper transversely-extending pin, of a detachable handle having a spring-plate secured to the terminals thereof and formed with a central slot, a locking-hook movably depending through the slot, and an eccentric operating and locking attachment engaging a portion of the hook and having bearing on the upper side of the spring-plate.
2. In a sad-iron, the combination with an iron-bodyhavingasocket with a transverselyextending pin, ot' a detachable handle comprising a grip with a spring-plate connected to the terminals thereof and formed with a central slot therethrough, a loop above the spring-plate having its outer extremity secured to one of the grip-terminals and its inner portion provided with a depending hook to removably engage the said pin, and an eccentric operating and lockingattachlneut engaging a portion of the loop and movable on the upper side of the spring-plate.
3. In a sad-iron, the combination with an iron-bodyhavingacentrallongitudinalgroove and a socket with a horizontal pin transversely disposed thereacross,of a handle having a supporting device with a locking-hook movably depending therethrough to removably engage the under portion of the pin and having means for operating the same, the said handle also being providedwith depending ianges cut away at opposite portions to fit over` the side walls of the groove, the hook being movable in the socket below the plane of the pin.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ADONIRAM JUDSON CAMPBELL.
