' BRICK-CLAMP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 14, 1906.
' Application filed February 15, 1906. Serial No. 301,156.
T0 at, whom it may con/007%:
Be it known that I, JEROME H. SHAFFRANK, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Cleveland, county of Cuyahoga, and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brick-Clamps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to certain implements which facilitate the handling of bricks, &-c.; and the object of my improvement is to construct such articles in the best possible manner with regard to ease ofmanipulation, adjustment, and serviceableness. I attain this object in and with a device constructed substantially as shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 represents a part plan and sectional view of said implement. Fig. 2- is a face view of the same. Fig. 3 illustrates said article when applied for carrying brick, and Fig. 4 is an enlarged transverse sectional'view of the same on line as as (see Fig. 1) looking toward the left.
Like letters of reference denote like parts in the drawings and specification.
Substantially the article consists of three parts-namely, the fixed grab-bar A, the swinging handle-bar and grab B, and the intermediate or adjusting bar C.
The fixed grab A comprises the bar part a and the scoop part b. r
With the swinging grab and bar B is combined the loop-handle 0. (See Figs. 2 and 3.) The bar O furnishes adjustable connection of and between the members A and B and pivotal support for the member B, as seen at 6, Figs. 1 and 2.
For an extremely simple pivotal connection of member B with the bar O, I prefer to form pins d (cast lugs) integrally with member B and close the openly-cast clevis down over said pins. One terminal of said bar O terminates in a clevis e and the other in a stud f, which projects at right angle to the bar proper. About midway between the terminals of this bar O is provided the clip g, which embraces the free end of member A or bar a, while the screw-threaded stud f extends through sloth of said bar and carries the wingnut i, whereby the bars can be securely fastened in adjustable positions tosuit the distance between a greater or smaller number of bricks. The base of the stud f is slightly curved or enlarged, as at Room for this enlargement is afforded in the depressions h which are located adjacent to the slot and spaced to suit bricks of difierent thicknessas, for instance, paving, building, sewerbricks, &c. Along the slot h the bar a is flanged, as at 7L3, which flanges not only reinforce the .slotted part of the bar, but also serve as an additional guide for the bar O. A few turns on the wing-nut 'L suffice to give clearance for the part f of the stud f, to be sprung out from the depressions h to enable adjustment of the bars for a certain number of bricks. The free end of the stud is preferably split and spread to guard against accidental loss of the nut. Simply by taking hold of the loop-handle c a certain number of bricks may be grabbed, lifted, and transported.
The loop 0 affords protection for the brickhandlers hand in grabbing and depositing bricks, and eventually same becomes also useful for connection with a hook or rope when bricks are to be hoisted with such implements.
In arranging the bars side by side and by combining same in the manner as shown a comparatively very light structure will have ample strength to endure the strain and wear in handling bricks or similar articles in an expedient manner.
,What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a brick-clamp the combination with the grabbing members, of a barri'gidly con nected with one of said members, said bar containing a slot with adjacent depressions; a bar provided with an angularly-projecting threaded stud and nut, a clip and a clevis adapted for adjustable connection with the first-named bar and for pivotally receiving the other grabbing member, the latter having a bar terminating in a loop-handle adapted for manipulation of the implement in the manner as shown and for the purpose described.
2. In a brick-clamp the combination of and clip for adjustable connetion mem ber A as and for the purpose set forth.
members'A, B andC, the member A havin a grab rigidly connected with its bar part an a portion of the bar part being slotted and flanged, the member Bbeing angular and teri V JEROME s-HAFFRANK' minating in a grab and a loop handle and Witnesses: adapted for pivotal connection with the BERNHARD F. EIBLER,
clevis of member 0, the latter having a stud JOSEPH HEKER.
