STOVEPIPE-FASTENE.
sPncIFIcATIoN forming part of Letters Patent No. 786,900, dated April 11, 1905.
v Application filed October 1, 1-903. Serial No. 175,341.
T0 a/ZZ whom it may concern,.-
p Be it known that we, RICHARD H. l-IoDG and WALTER C. HODGE, citizens of the United States, residing at Medford, in the county of Jackson and State of Oregon, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stovepipe-Fasteners; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and eX- act description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The objects of our invention are to provide means for adj ustably fastening to a chimney that part of a stovepipe which is inserted in the Hue-orifice and to prevent the pipe from being accidentally detached or pushed too far therein; and it consists in the constructions, arrangements, and combinations herein illustrated, described, and claimed. y
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this application, and in which like reference-symbols indicate corresponding'parts, we have illustrated one form of embodiment of our invention, though it is to be understood that other forms of embodiment may be used without departing from the spirit o f our invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view 0f our device, showing the fastener unclasped. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the fasten-.
ing means, and Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of our device in operative position holding a section of pipe in place.
Referring to the drawings in detail, a, indicates a band of suitable material carrying at approximately right angles to its face a projection b, having its outer end bent atan angle, as at b3, to engage the inner edge of a flueoriiice and prevent the pipe from being pulled therefrom when the band is clasped on the pipe, which projection is adjustable to-'diflerent-length orifices by having a slot b2 therein, through which is passed fastening means, preferably a flat-headed screw-bolt X with a nut b4. Y
To permit adjustable attachment to the band, a plate c is-provided with a slot c at one end, through which is passed the band a, the band being then bent or folded, as at a2.
l 5o Intermediate of the ends of the plate e, on
therein.
one side thereof, is a lug c2, adapted to bear against the outer edge of the flue-oriiice and prevent the pipe from being pushed too far On each side of one end of -the plate c is a lug c3, constructed pivotally to hold the attached ends of the tightening-lever d, which is fulcrumed thereon. The lever d is constructed with a cross-bar d2, disposed intermediate of its length, to which is attached the end of the band ct, as at a3, and the outer end of the lever .is curved, as shown, thereby adapting it to lie flatly against the band a when the device is clamped in operative position.
Carried by the plate c is an adjustable projection b, having its outer. end bent at an angle, as at b3, to engage the inner edge of a flue-orifice, additionally insuring that the pipe shall not be pulled therefrom when the band is clasped on the pipe, which projection is adjustable to different-length orifices by having a slot therein, through which passes fastening means, such as a screw-bolt carrying a nut.
For simplicity of construction and cheapness of manufacture the lugs c2 c3 c3 are preferably formed integrally with `the plate c from a single piece of me-tal and turned at an angle thereto; but other forms of construction may be used. For the same reasons the band a, is likewise formed of one piece of metal. Y v
The bent ends @zas of the band are suitably retained in position, as by clips a4 or by other suitable means permitting adjustment of the band. By making eitheror both of the bends a2 13 in the band nearer the ends thereof and slipping the retaining-clips a4 toward the plate c until they-pass over the bent ends of the band the device may be made to iit a larger pipe. It is obvious that by reversing this operation the device may be adjusted to t a smaller pipe. Y f
In the operation of the device with the 'le'- ver d in the position shown in Fig. 1 the bent ends b3 of the projections b are slipped into engagement with the inner edge of the flueoriiice and the projection e2 brought-to bear against the outer edge thereof. Proper ad- IOO ing means b4 and sliding the projections b to the proper distance. This adjustment securelyholds the device in position. The pipe is then insertedthrough the band a and between the projections I) into the {lue-orifice and the leverd brought to the position shown in Fig. 3, Which movement of the lever causes the band to clasp the pipe and, together with the projections running along the inside of tllae lueeoriiice, holds the pipe rigidly in proper p ace.
To secure adjustment of the pipe or remove the same altogether, it is necessary only to bring the lever to the position shown in- Fig. 1,When this maybe accomplished Without disturbing the connection of the device to the Hue-opening.
Without limiting ourselves to the exact details of construction shown, What We claimI and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A stovepipe fastener, comprising a band, a projection adjustably carried by the band, a plate attached to the band,a proj ection attached to the plate, lugs formed integrally With the plate and arranged to form a fulcrum, a lug on the plate constructed to bear against the outer edge of a flue-orifice, and a lever fulcrumed on the fulcrum-lugs of' the plate and arranged to tighten the band, substantially as described.
2. A stovepipe fastener, comprising a band, a projection adjustably carried by the band, a plate attached to the band, a proj ection adjustably attached to the plate, lugs formed integrally with the plate and arranged to form a fulcrum, a lug on the plate constructed to bear against the outer edge ofthe lue-oriice, and alever ulcrumed on the fulcrum-lugs of the plate and arranged to tighten the band, substantially as described.
3. A stovepipe fastener, comprising a band, an adjustable projection thereon having a bent outer end,1 a plate adjustably attached to the band,a projection carried by the plate and having a bent outer end, integral lugs upon the plate constructed to 'l'ornl a fulcrum, a lug carried b y the plate and constructed to bear against the outer edge of a 'llue-oriiice, and a lever fulcrumed on the fuln crum-lugs of the plate and arranged to tighten the band, substantially as described.
4. A stovepipe fastener, comprising a band, an adjustable projection thereon having a bent outer end, a plate adjustably attached to the band,a projection carried by the plate and having a bent outer end, integral lugs upon the plate constructed to form a fulcrum, a lug carried by the plate and constructed to bear against the outer edge of a flue-orifice, and a curved lever fulerumed on the fulcrum-lugs of the plate and arranged to tighten the band, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof we aflix our signatures in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
