.To all-whom t may cov/werft: ,i
Be it known that I, GEORGE BRYDGEs ROD NEY, a citizenof the United States, residing telescoping members and having a point at one end and a ring at the opposite end connected therewith by means of a swivel-joint, means for securin the members either extended or when te escoped, and a blade detachably fitted to an end of the stock.
companying drawings.
While the invention may be adapted to different forms and conditions by changes in the structure and minor details Without departlng from the spirit or essential features thereof, still the preferred embodiment is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a front view of an intrenchingtool embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the tool. Fig. 3 is a pers ective view of the stock or hand e extended, the blade being removed. Fig. 4 is a'detail perspective view of the blade. Fig. 5 is a cross-section of the blade on the line of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a detail view of the tool used as a shelter-tent pole.
Corresponding and like arts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The handle or stock is composed of telescopingmembers 1 and 2, which are preferably hollow and formed of lengths of steel tubing, the members being of such relative diameters as to enable the one to iit snugly Within the other, so as to obviate play and provide for a mutual bracing and strength-l ening, so as to resist a blow or other lateral force tending to indent or otherwise distort the stock or handle. The stock or handle vis provided at one end withasteel `oint 3 and at its opposite end with a ring 4, aving connecti on therewith by means of a swivel-joint,
tion of strain when the device is used as a picket-pin, so as to obviate twisting ,of the ariat or other form of tether. preferably of chisel form and welded to one end of the outer member 2 in a manner to provide an inner shoulder 5, against which the inner end of the membr 1 is adapted t'oabut. The oint 3 has the end attached to the tube 2 ret uced so as to enter the tube and form a end of the member 2 abutting thereagainst. Spaced annular ribs 6 and 7 are provided at the opposite end of the member 2 and receive between thema collar 8, having trunnions at diametrically opposite points, with which the side members of a bow 9 make pivotal connection, said bow being provided with a ringstud l0, receiving the ring 4. The collar 8 1s adapted to -turn freely u on the member 2, and the bow 9 is adapte to swing from one side to the other upon its pivotal connection with the collar.
The inner member 1 is provided at one end to overlap the end ofthe member 2 and its rib 7 and having a central 4opening l2 for a purpose presently. to be explained. Lateral openings 13 are formed in opposite end portlons ot the members 1 and 2 and are adapted to register and to receive Cotter-pins 14, b
means of which the membersare secured bot when extended and when telescoped. When the tool is to be used as a picket-pin, the member 1 is telescoped within the member 2 and made secure by placing'one or both cotterins 14 in position. The point of the stoc i is driven into the ground and the lariat or tether is connected to the ring 4. When capacity of a crowbar, it is preferred to re- 'move the lower Cotter-pin, and the hardened point 3 will resist the wear and also enable cutting or prying being readily effected.

he blade .is sti'l'ened and braced longitudinally by lme'ans oi' ribs 17, formed by pressing portion'sfromthe blade. In order thatv the blade may be fitted to the end of' the stock or handle, it is provided with a socket, which is formed between a portion of the blade and a plate 18, riveted or otherwise made fast thereto, portions. of the blade and the plate 18 being pressed outward in opposite direcstitute the socket. A socket-piece 19 is iitted into the socket and is flanged at its outer end and constitutes' a lining for the socket and is adapted to receive the point of the stock or handle. The projecting end ot the socket-piece has openings at opposite points to register with openings 13 at the inner ends of the members l and 2, so that when the lower cotter-pin 14 is passed throughthe transversely-alining openings the blade and members of the stock or handle are firmly secured. `When it is required to use the tool as a shelter-tent pole, the inner'member l is pin l/ through registering openings near the outer end of the member 2 and the inner end of the member 1, and the blade 15 is secured to the lower end of the member 2.- The stock or'handle thus extended is placed in an rection of the length of the tent, and the canvas is secured to thenpper end of the stock or pole by inserting a cartridge 20 through an opening' in the canvas and into the opening l2 of the cap l1, all as shown most clearly in Fig. 6. l
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1. A combined intrenchingtool, picketpin and tent-pole, the same comprising a stock or handle formed or' telescoping members and provided at one end with a point and at the opposite end with a ring having swivel connection therewith, means for securing the telescopingemembers both when extended and when telescoped, and a blade removably fitted to the end of the stock having the point.
2. in a tool of the character speciiied, the combination of a stock comprising telescoping members having a snug it, a point applied to one end of the outer member, a ring'having swivel connection with the opposite end or said outer member, and means for positively connecting the members either when telescoped or when extended.
3. In a tool of the character speciiied, the combination of a stock, a blade, a plate attached to the blade and having opposing portions ot the blade and plate pressed in opposite directions to form a socket, a socketpiece secured in the socket and. having an end portion projected beyond the blade, and.
means for securing the blade to the stock. y
4. ln a tool of the character specifiedthe combination ot a stock composed of telescoping sections having a point at one end and a centrally-apertnred cap at the opposite end,- said cap being secured to the inner memberA and having a portion adapted to overlap the end of the outer member, and means for securing the members both when ext-ende l.
and when telescoped.
5. The herein-described combination mtrenching-tool, the same comprising a blade having a socket, a stock or handle comprising telescoping members and having the point at one end, and `an apertured'cap and a swivelring at the opposite end, and means for securing the blade to the stock and securing the members or' the stock both when telescoped and when extended. l
