Application filed November .1, 190;. Serial No. 461.096.
To all whom it wlay concern:
Be it known that we, HARRY J. Rurrner and CHARLES V. Donn, citizens of the United States, residing at Elgin, county of Kane,-
nnd State of Illinois, hane'dnvented certain new and useful Improveni ents in Combinatiou Pocket-Knives an d Qigar-Clips, of which the following is a specification.
(an? invention relates to pocketknives a'nch particularly to a combination pocket knife and cigar clip. j
. The object of our invention is to provide a devicei of the. class mentioned which shall be of few parts, simple of construction and of low costto manufacture.
A further object of our invention is to provide a 4 device as mentioned having a one piece handle to which'the blade is pivotally connected and in which aportion of the has.-
dle shall serve asa spring to hold the blade firmly in bothfopened and closed position and also to hold the blade yieldingly, in
proper position when the device isused as a cigar clip.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
\Vith these objects in view, our invention consists generally in a device of the class mentioned comprising .a handle portion formed of a single piece of steel rod bent don'- ble forming a pair of substantially parallel or slightly convergent spring arms, a blade pivot-ally connected to one of said arms which is longitiulinally slotted to receive it when in closed position and having faces or shoulders to engage the other arm which serves as a spring to hold the blade ineither open or closed position.
Our invention further consists in -a knife characterized as above stated andprovided or equipped with a stationary blade arranged between the arms and secured to the'opposite one from that to which the blade is connected and adapted for cooperation therewith to form or constitute a cigar clip.
Our invention further consists in various details of construction and arrangements of 1 parts all as will be fully described hereinafter 1 and particularly pointed out in the clainis.
Our invention will be more fully under-,1
stood by reference to the accompanying drawlngs fornnng a part of this specification and n1 \VlllCll- Figure 1, is a side elevation of a knife em- 3 body-"rug our invention in its preferred form, 3
the blade being shown open in full line and f'closed in dotted lines, Fig."2,." is an-edge of the same' Fig. 3, is across sec elevation I --ti'o'n on the/line wear of Fig. 1 and illustrated upon an enlarged scale, Fig, 4', is a similar vvievv'of a slightlyinodifiedforni, Fig. 5, is a perspectivev-iew of the modified form of "stationary blade illustrated: tj'and Fig: 6, is a detail viewv of the blade of the knife.
the handle of the device. This is'formed of asin'gle' piece of steel rod'of uniforrn'diameter 'throug'l' out and bent double upon itself as tially-parallel or slightly convergent arms 2 and 3. The ends of the arms 2'and 3 are cut off square as at t ing a'shoulder or-stop to limit the movement ear hereinafter. 'The arm-2 is slotted or ifurcatod substantially throughout its length forming the parallel portions 2 and 2", and the blade recess 61 the rivet '7 is the knifeblade 8. The blade 8 is provided or or lug 9 which is perforated at 10 to receive the rivet 7. and its back edge is cut away forming a shoulder 11 at substantially right angles to the back and which abuts the shoulder 5 when the blade 8 is in open'position. The edge 12 of the shank 9, adjacent l to the shoulderll, lies against the inner edge of the outer end of the arm 3 when the blade j is opened and said arrn constitutes a spring j for holding the blade in position by bearing 1 against said edge. The shank 9 is also pro viderl with an edge or face 13 parallel with j the edge or face 12 and which lies against the 1 spring arm when the blade is closed, as l shown in dotted lines in F ig. 1, holding the point and-cutting edge. of the blade within the recess 6 in the arm 2. It should be noted that when the blade is closed its back edge 8' is held considerably above the outer edge of the arm 2 for a purpose hereinafter de-' scribed.
Arranged between the arms 2 and 3, and secured to the latter, is a stationary bladev 14 I which together with the blade-8 constitutes a cigar clip when the latter blade is in closed position. The blade 14 comprises a metal block having its end'fitted in a socket or rec'ess 15 formed in the arm 3 adjacent to the 1 end of the blade 8 when closed. The block Referring now to the drawings 1 indicates and 5, the latter constitutformed with an offset shank DODD, OF EL GINJ ILLINOIStSAID DODD ASSIGNOR TO SAID RUPPERT clearly shown in Fig. 1 forming the substanof the 'bladewhen being openedaswi-ll ape Pivotallyjniounted t the outer end of-the arm 2 and between the portions 22'- upon may be sweated or riveted in position the latter being illustrated. The upperedge of the blade 14 is formed or provided with a substantially semicircular recess 16 ,'to receive the end of the cigar and the adjacent.
edges of the arm portions 2, 2 are correspondingly recessed to complete the aperture, 18. The end of the cigar is inserted in the aperture 18 and the blade is depressed y pressing against the edge 8 to cut off the tip. When the blade is released it returns to normal position due to the pressure of the arm 3 on the face 13.
In the drawings I have illustrated two forms of stationary blades 14. That illustrated in Fig. 3, is provided with a single beveled face 18' to cooperate with the blade 8. In the modified form shown in Figs. 4
and 5, the upper edge of the blade 14 is provided with a wedge shaped kerf 19 which extends longitudinally of the upper edge there.- of and transversely of the recess 16.
' Having described our invention what we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters against the end of the opposite arm when in closed position and the other against said arm when the blade 1s in open position, the
last said arm constituting a spring to hold the blade and the first said arm being slotted substantially throughout its length, substantially as described.
2. In a device of the class described, a; handle portion formed of a single metal strip bent double forming a pair of arms, one of said arms being slotted substantially throu hout its length, in combination with a knife lade pivotally mounted in the end of said slotted arm and adapted to close thereinto'and a stationary blade arranged between said arms and secured to the opposite one from that to which the knife blade is pivoted, substantially as described.
3. In a device of the class described, a handle portion formed of a single metal strip bent double forming a pair of arms, one of said arms being slotted substantially throughout its length, incombination with a knife blade pivotally mounted on the end of said slotted arm and adapted to close 'thereinto, and a stationary blade arranged between said arms and secured to the opposite arm from that to which the knife blade is pivoted, the edge of said stationary blade and the adjacent edge of the slotted arm being recessed. substantially as described.
In testimony whereof We have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
