Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 7, 1907.
Application filed February 2. 1907. Serial No. 355,353.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, PATRICK JAMES COURT- NEY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Elizabeth, in the county of Union and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and'Improved Masonry-Tool, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention is an improvement in ma sonry tools, having for objects among others, the provision of a convenient tool of this character for handling the mortar in building construction, and forming the joints of the same between the several layers of building material. With this in view I have combined with an ordinary trowel, in a manner that its usefulness is not impaired, a j ointer, comprising beads so arranged that they can be brought into action without inconvenience and without loss of time as is attendant when these functions are performed by separate devices.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of my invention, and Fig. 2 is a rear end elevation of the same.
In carrying out my invention I employ a trowel of the ordinary or any preferred construction, consisting of a blade 1 and a handle 2 jointed together by a shank 3, said shank being formed integral with the blade at one end thereof, as shown in Fig. 1. On the under face of the blade 1 and arranged longitudinally thereof, is formed preferably as an integral part, a bead 4 adjacent to the shank 3.
The handle 2, as shown in Fig. 1, is constructed with a ferrule 5 at each end, the outer ferrule having a bead 6 on its under side, which joins with a bead 7 extending centrally across the end of the ferrule, the junction of said beads being rounded ofi, as clearly'shown in Fig. 1.
In the operation of the tool, the trowel is used in the ordinary manner for handling the mortar. As the several layers or courses of brick or other material are laid, the bead 4 is brought into action to form a smooth joint therebetween, commonly known in masonry as a jointer struck joint. In corners and angles of masonry where the bead 4 is not accessible,.the beads 6 and 7 are used. It is thus seen that I have combined in a single device, a trowel for handling the mortar and jointing means for forming the joints between the several layers of building material as the same are placed in position, also that the arrangement of the jointing means is such that it Will not interfere with the use of the trowel in the ordinary manner and may be applied to the joints withoutremoving the hand from the trowel handle.
Having thus described my invention I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A masonry tool, comprising a blade having a shank rigidly connected at one end thereof, a handle carried by the shank, a bead formed'on the bottom face of the blade adjacent to said shank, and a bead formed on the under face of the handle and extended over the end thereof, for the purpose described.
2. A trowel comprising a blade having a shank connected to one end thereof, and a jointing bead formed on the bottom face of the blade at the end adjacent to said shank.
3. A trowel having a handle, and a joint ing bead formed at one side of and passing over the end of the handle.
4. A trowel comprising a blade having a shank, a handle carried by the shank, a jointing bead formed on the under face of the blade at the end adjacent to said shank, and a jointing bead formed at the end of said handle.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
PATRICK JAMES COURTNEY.
