D-HANDLE Speccation of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 8, 1907.
Application filed April 1,1907. Serial No. 365,687.
To all whom it may concern: l
Be it known that I, FREDERICK P. MAUS, of Newcastle, county of Henry, and State of Indiana, have invented a certain new and useful D-Handle; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof,rreference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which like letters refer to like parts.
The object of this invention is to materially cheapen the construction of D handles for tools and implements. Thewidth of the D in the handles has required the use of a relatively large amount of wood in making the handles. Various efforts have been made to obviate this difficulty7 especially as the cost of the Wood has in recent years become comparatively very great. My invention for accomplishing this result greatly reduces the cost of the handle and yet it is extremely strong and durable.
The nature of this invention will be understood from thc accompanying drawings and the following description and claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of the D handle employing one piece or sheet of metal that extends across the upper part of the handle. Fig. 2 is an elevation of a modified form' employing two pieces or sheets of metal and not extending across the top. Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is an elevation of a third modified form embodying three sheets or strips of metal.
In detail 10 represents the portion of the handle to which the tool, such as a spade or fork, is secured.` It is a straight piece of wood of substantially uniform diameter throughout so that it can be very economically manufactured from wood.
The D is not integral with the part l0 of the handle and is partially made of metal. In the form shown in Fig. l a single strip orsheet of steel is employed. The two ends 11 of said sheet are oppositely secured about the upper end of the part 10 of the handle by bolts 12 that extend through said part 10 and at each end are riveted to the ysheet of steel. At the upper end of the part 1() of the handle the sheets of steel are separated into arms 13 so as to form the D and receive the wooden hand-piece 14 and to which they are secured by a bolt l5 that extends entirely through the wooden handpiece 14 and is riveted at the ends to the steel strip 13. The sheet of steel then is turned transversely across the D and longitudinally of the wooden hand-piece 14, thus forming a cross strip of steel 1G that fits very closely upon the top of the part 14 so that the parts 14 and 16 together form a comfortable and extremely strong part for the hand to grasp during the use of the implement. Thus it is seen that in this form shown in Fig. 1 there are two wooden pieces 10 and 14, round and of substantially uniform diameter and therefore cheaply made of wood, and a single thin but strong sheet of steel united to said parts l0 and 14. This makes an extremely strong handle and the cost is but a l fraction of the cost of regular wooden D handles.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 2 there is no cross metal strip 16, so it is formed of two similar and oppositely located sheets of steel embodying portions 11 and 13. This is likewise a cheap and strong construction but not so strong as that shown in Fig. 1.
In Fig. 4 a cross strip 26 of steel is added to the two strips of steel shown in Fig. 2 so as to provide a structure very similar to that shown in Fig. l, except that it is made of three strips of steel instead of one. The 'ends of the cross strip 26 in Fig. 4 are turned down and secured by the bolt 15.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A D handle having a transverse wooden hand piece, sheet metal secured to each end thereof and curved t0 form the D and extended so as te be secured about the handle of a tool and a metal reinforcement of said wooden hand piece extending between tl upper ends of said sheet metal side pieces and secured thereto, substantially as shown.
2. A D handle having a transverse wooden hand piece, a strip of sheet metal secured to each end thereof and curved to forni the D and extended so as to be secured about the handle of a tool, and a strip of sheet metal extending across the D upon and adjacent the wooden hand piece and secured at each end, substantially as shown.
.In witness whereof, I have hereunto axed my signature in the presence of the witnesses herein named.
FREDERICK P. MAUS.
