WIRE-GRIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 733,855, dated July 14, 1903.
Application filed July 2, 1902. Serial No. 114,067. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J AMES CHARLES LOGUE,
a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a wire-grips for the use of linemen in stringing electric wires, the object being to provide in connection with the grip a simple device for holding alength of wire while twisting its end around the wire held in the grip? I will describe a wire-grip embodying my invention and then point out the'novel' fea-' tures in the appended claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is a side view of a wire-grip embodying my invention and showing wires in place. Fig. 1. an end view. 7
Referring to the drawings, 1 indicates what may be termed a fixed jaw, and 2 a movable j aw. These jaws in their adjacent edges are provided with V-shaped channels 3. By making the channels V-shaped the device will give a double grip on the wire. The jaw 2 is movable at all times in parallelism with the jaw 1, and to provide for such movement a link 4: is pivoted atone end to the jaw 1 and at the other end to the jaw 2, and also pivotally connected to the jaws 1 and 2 forward of the link 4 is a lever 5, from the up- Fig. 3 is a plan view, and Fig'. 4 is per end of which links 6 extend to a connec-' tion with a bolt 7, movable ina slot 8, formed in the extended portion of the jaw 1, and con necting with this bolt 7 is a loop 9, to which a draw rope or strap may be attached. A
Fig. 2 is a side view opposite that of spring 10, arranged between the links 6 and having one member engaged with a lug on one of the links and the other member engaged with the upper end of the lever 5, serves to swing the lever 5'in such a direction as to close the jaws sufficiently tight to frictionally engage a wire. When, however, strain is put upon the device, the jaws will be drawn tightly together through the medium of the lever 5 and the links connecting with the loop 9. On one side of the jaw 2 isa keeper for the wire, designed to have its end turned around the wire engaged by the jaws. This keeper consists of an outwardly extended portion 11 and 'an upwardly-extended portion 12.
In the operation the main wire is to be clamped between the jaws, and then the wire to be twisted around the mainv wire is to be placed in the keeper-that is, between the portion 12 and the outer surface of the fixed jaw. Then with the ordinary tool the end of the wire "may be twisted around the main wire. This keeper will prevent the wire engaged therein fromswinging outward.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A tool for the purpose specifiedcomprising pivotally-connected jaws and a keeper connected to one of the jaws and consisting of an outwardly-extended portion and an upwardly-extended portion, the said outwardlyextended portion being parallel with and on a plane with the gripping-face of said jaw,
substantially as specified.
- In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
