CUSPIDOR-LIFTEFL SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 759,253, dated May 10, 1904.
Application filed February 8, 1904. Serial No. 192,526. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that I, VVILLIAM J. ENZ, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Cincinnati, county of Hamilton, State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cuspidor-Lifters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to cuspidor-lifters. Its object is to provide a simple, cheap, and effective device by which cuspidors may be lifted, moved from place to place, and firmly held during the process of cleaning.
The invention for which I desire to obtain Letters Patent is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in connection with which it will be first fully described, indicating the parts by similar reference-letters in the different views, and then particularly pointing out the novel combinations in the appended claims.
Figure 1 is a perspective View of the device, the grasping-jaws being in the open position. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, showing the grasping-jaws upon a cuspidor and locked in the closed position.
The straight rod A has its lower end bifurcated, forming the forks a, which rest upon the inner wall of the flaring mouth of the cuspidor. The forks a near their upper ends are enlarged, forming bosses which are perforated to receive the stud or fulcrum bolt a, upon which the angle-lever B is journaled. The angle-lever B has its upper or handle end 6 straight and its lower end semicircular at b, with upturned rounded ends to hear, when the handles are closed, upon the outer flaring wall of the cuspidor.
The lever B has a ratchet 6" formed upon it to contact a pawl (0 which is carried by a swinging yoke (4 which is pivoted at a on the lever A. By throwing the yoke a downward, as shown in Fig. 2, after the lifter has engaged a cuspidor the arms may be locked firmly together.
It is seen that after the arms 5 and a have engaged the flange of cuspidor it will not become disengaged therefrom as long as the levers B and A are together, since the pulling upward upon the lifter causes the arms and a to have a tendency to spread apart, and that a slight pressure upon the arms A and B evercomes the tendency of the arms a and I) to spread apart, and therefore prevents the lifter from becoming disengaged from the cuspidor.
WVhat I claim is- 1. A cuspidor-lifter consisting of two jaws pivoted together the end of one being straight to contact the inner surface of the cuspidor, and the end of the other having two outwardlyprojecting arms to contact the outer surface of the cuspidor, and means for actuating the jaws to grasp and release the cuspidor substantially as shown and described.
2. In a cuspidor-lifter the combination of two levers pivoted together, one a straight lever and the other curved downward near its lower end, the curved lever having its lower end branched to engage the outer surface of a cuspidor substantially as shown and described.
3. In a cuspidor-lifter the combination of two levers pivoted together, one a straight lever forked at its end and the other a curved lever passing down between the forks, the curved lever having at its lower end two curved arms substantially as shown and described.
4:. A cuspidor-lifter consisting of two lovers pivoted together, one lever being straight and the other curved near its lower end, the curved end being branched to engage the outer face of the cuspidor and means for locking the levers together after they have engaged a cuspidor substantially as shown and described.
