The plate, furthermore, has an opening ist in the center of its lower portion, and
marginal rib extends from the lowerv edge ermind the upper portion of the same, id rib having a curved portion disposed concentric to the opening i4 and having n iioteh lo disposed directly above the openin the present embodiment this rib inises in thickness toward the notch, Ias y shown in Fig. Il but this is not :m esal feature. .n offset heed i?, the inner fece .of which the plate i1. This hoed is provided i opening 18, elined with the opening the plete. A heeded pivotebolt 19 through the opening i8, the portion Missing' therethrough being of' less diameter n the opening, es clearly shown in Fig. 3.
; sinfi boit is provided with a shoulder 20, that Tesis ooit extending through the opening 14 1n the egizi: st the 'plate 11, the shank 21 of the plete und through the end iva-ll 7 of the cese. A nut 22 is threaded on the inner end of' the boit-shank and serves to securely bind the piste #einst the. end Vall, the shoulder 20, howeve preventing sind bolt troni clamping the 'sind i7 of the bail-erin l0 and permitting the necessary pivotfzl action of the handle niembei. The outer .d or the head 17 terine-tes in a shoulder 23, that cooperates with the inner side oi the rib, es 'hereinafter explei. ed, and the erin 1U, directly adjacent io seid shoulder, extends across the'outer tee-e oi theribnnfl rides thei'eegainst,v This por ion i the erin is movable into and ont of the net/eli. i6, there being suitieient resiliency izisure the entre-nee of the arm into the rotoli.
The operation of the device nitty be briefly u described as follows: When not in use, the
handle member can be elevated, and the arms 10 being located in the netehes of the ribs willA :maintain seid hendle member in its elevated position. 4At the seme time the operys-'tor may swing the handle member to either side of *he notch. Lt will be evident that with tistruetnre when the sweeperi is pushed away troni the operator by the handie member the impnise Wiil .be transmitted through tie pivots 19,4 inasmuch as the handle nieinbe vwill `bem against the same.
Yi/Yhen, however, the handle is drawn toward th the ribs l5 and the pivots will be relieved trom the14 strain. .s eV consequence, the spetter will be'applied at one side of the ver The haii-erin l() terminates f e operator, the draft will be brought againstl ICO ticalcenter'of the sweeper-body.A l Therefore the danger of tiltin said body is practically eliminated. It wil be observed that this structure is very simple, that theparts may be easily manufactured andassembled, andthat to apply the same to the sweeper-.body it is only necessary to secure the plates to the flat surfaces, of the end walls, there being no lcuttin or other fitting to be done.
A s ightly-'modiied form of construction is illustrated in Fig. 5. The same plate is employed, and therefore the same referencenumeralsl have beenA applied thereto.
. body, so .as to permit the necessary longi- Y to be unnecessary.' While this modified conl tudinal movement of the arm and head with respect to the plate.4 The operation of the structure is the same as that already described,and a reiteration-thereof is believed struction is 'more' simple than the first-described embodiment and is therefore perhaps cheaper to. manufacture,` it does not have the positive connection. between the handle vmember andplate, for there is some chance of. the pivot 19a springing out ofthe opening. From the foregoing it is thought thatthe construction, operation, and many advantagesof the herein-described invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art Without further description, and it will be understood that various changes'inthe size', shape, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacricing any of the advantages of the invention. y
" Having thus fully described my invention,
what l claim as new, and desire toseeu're by lLetters Patent, is-f 1. .In a device of the character described,
,the combination with a sweeper-case, of a plate secured thereto, a han e member, a s'inglefpivotal connection between the lower ongitudinal movement of the handle member in both directions and prevents its detach- 5 5 ment from the plate, an outstanding curved rib on t-he upper edge of the plate projecting beyond the outer'face of said plate and dis- The the handle member and the central portion of the plate that -permits a limited.'`
posed substantially concentric to thepivot connection, and a shoulder carried by the handle member and bearing against the inner side of the rib upon the movement of said handlev member in one direction.
2. In a device ofthe characterA described, the combination with av plate having an o ening, and a curved marginal rib, of a hand ebail having an armprovided with an o ening, a shouldered bolt passing through t eo'pening of the arm and of less diameter than the same, said bolt passing through the opening in the plate and having its shoulder bearing against the same, and a draftshoulder carried by the bail-arm and operating against the inner'side of the marginal 3. In a device of the character described, the, combination with an outstandin curved rib having anotch, of a pivoted hand e member having a shoulder bearing against Athe inner side of the rib'and-being movable into and out of the. notch thereof.
4. In ai device of the character described,
5. In a device of the character described.,
the eornbinationwith a sweeper-case, of a plate secured to the end thereof and having an opening, a marginal outstanding rib carried by the plate and having a curved portion disposed substantially concentric to the opening, said rib having a notch in an inter? portion, a handle-bail having an mediate arm provided with a head thato crates over the plate, said 4arm being movallile into and out of'the notch ofthe marginal rib, and said head having a shoulderthat operates against the inner side of the rib, and a pivot conrect` ing the head and plate, said pivot engaging in the opening in the plate and permitting a by the arm and coaeting if vwith the inner side of the rib. go;
slight longitudinal movement of thearm and head with respect to said plate.` y y' In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature' y in the presence of two witnesses.A y
