PIPE, ROD AND WIRE-CABLE CLAMP 0R COUPLING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 11, 1908.
Application filed August 80, 1906, Serial No. 382,720. Renewed January-3, 1907. Serial No. 409,240.
To all whom "it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN J. BQUCHARD and ISAAC A. BRAVIN, citizens of the United States, residing at Bradford, in the ,county of McKean and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pi e, Rod, and Wire- Cable Clamps or Coup ings, of which the following is a s ecification, referencebeing had therein to t e accompanying drawing.
Our invention relates to improvements in rod clamps.
The object of our invention is. to rovide means by which the broken ends 0 pipes, rods, or wire cables may be readily clamped together and firmly held. The device being applicable at any place and readily applied.
Another object of our invention is to provide almore simple, cheap and effective device of this character.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1, isa side elevation of the improved coupling. Fig. 2, is a longitudinal vertical sectional view. Fig. 3, is a transverse vertical sectional view taken on the line :r:2c of Fig. 1. Fig. 4, is a transverse vertical sectional view showing the rods or wires provided with heads, and Fi 5,, is a longitudinal horizontal sectional view of Fig. 4.
lleferring now to the drawings, 1 represents an elongated cylindrical-shaped socket having its lower side provided with a solid flat vertical portion 2, formed integral with the cylinder. The cylinder is preferably made of cast metal and cast in a single piece, as will be hereinafter more fully described. The cylindrical socket is provided with a lon gitudinal centrally arranged opening 3 which extends entirely therethrough, and is for the reception of the two ends of the rods, bolt's, or cables to be coupled together.
The vertical portion 2 of the coupling is provided with two transverse horizontal openings 4 and 5 which are so arranged that they intersett the opening 3 of the cylindrical member. These openings, as shown, are of an angular form, and preferably square, having the lower angles or corners 6 and 7 of the two openings intersecting the longitudinal opening or socket, as shown.
The two ends of the bolts, rods or cables 6 and 7 to be fastened or coupled together, are inserted within the opening 3 from opposite the center of the socket. he openings 4 ent, is
and 5 being arranged as shown, adjacent to the ends of the sockets: When the rods, bolts, or cables are in this position, the bolts 8 and 9 are inserted in the transverse openings 4 and 5. The bolts or holdingmeans are of a shape to correspond to the openings 4 and 5', and are slightly ta ered towardsthe ends, and are provided wit 1 a screw-threaded portion 101 The wedges'or bolts 8 and 9 are driven into openings, and the sharp upper corners engage the inner ends of the bolts, rods, or cables to be coupled, and bite into the same. Placed upon the opposite screw- .threaded end of the bolts on the opposite side of the socket from which the bolts are inserted, are nuts 10 which, when tightened,
up, draw the bolts inwardly into the openings and cause the upper sharp edges thereof to bite deeper into the bolts, rods, or cables to be coupled, and firmly hold the two ends of the rods, bolts, or cables within the socket, and
In the form shown in Figs. 4 and 5, we have shown the sockets with an enlarged portion 1 1 at one side of the center, in order to receive the heads12 and 13 of the bolts 14 and 15 when it is desired to couple-the two headed ends of the bolts together, or in coupling any headed members.
In all the figures, the vlower'vertical flat portion of the socket is provided with a central transverse opening 13 by means of which the coupling can be attached when it is desired to do so.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim and desire to secure by Letters Pat- 1 1. A coupling, comprising a socket having .-a longitudinal opening therethrough with av central enlarged portion at one side', and angular transverse openings intersecting the.
on itudinal o ening, headed memberswithin t e longitu inal opening, and having their heads within the enlarged centralportion, angular taperin keys passing through the transverse angu ar openings and having one corner thereof engagmg the members within the longitudinal openings, and nuts on the ends of said keys on the opposite side of the coupling from which the keys are inserted.
2. .A coupling, comprising a socket having a longitudinal opening therethrough with a central enlarged portion at one side, andari gular transverse openings intersecting the ongitudmal opening on the opposite side positively prevent the same from being pulled out of the socket.
' having one corner thereof engaging the members within the longitudinal opemngs, and a separate means carried by the small ends of each key for tightening and holding the same within the transverse openings.
3. A coupling comprlsing a socket having a longitudinal opening therethro'ugh with a central enlarged portion atone side, and angular transverse openings intersecting the ongitudinal opening on each side of the central enlarged portion, bolts having heads of a size to passwithin the longitudinal 'openin s, angular taperin keys passing through t e transverse angu ar openings and having one corner thereof engaging the bolts and forcing the heads thereof downwardly Within the enlarged portion, and a separate means carried byothe smallend of each key for tightening and holding the same within the transverse openlngs.
4. A coupling comprising a socket having.
a longitudinal opening therethrough with a central enlarged portion at one side, bolts having heads of a size to pass within the longitudinal opening and means carried by the JOHN KAHLE, 7 CHARLES F. HILLW G, Jr.
