APPLICATION FILED OCT. 17, 1912.
UNITED STATES JOHN HENRY 'IINK, OI" MQRDIALLOC, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA.
HANDLE FOR KEROSENlEJ-TINS ANI) THE LIKE.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed October 17, 1912.
Patented Dec. 16, 1913. Serial No. 726,237.
To all whom may concern Be it known that 1, JOHN HENRY TINK, a. subject of the King of Great Britain. resid ing at Mordialloc, in the State of Victoria, Australia, farmer, have invented Improvements in and Relating to Handles for Kerosene-Tins and the like, of which the following; is a specification.
This invention consists in a simple, durable, and inexpensive handle attachment for empty kerosene or petrol tins whereby same may be employed as buckets or the like, or it may be used as a detachable handle for tin buckets and other receptacles.
The invention is illustrated by the accompanying' drawings, whereof- Figure 1 is a vertical sect-ion through a tin, showing the handle attachment, Fig. 2 is an enlarged side elevation of one of the clamping devices, showing same unlocked, Fig. 8 is an elevation of the clamping; device unlocked, the same being taken at right angles to F ig. 2 and from the side remote from the receptacle, Fig. l is an elevation thereof taken from the side of the device which is toward the receptacle, Fig. 5 a vertical section, and Fig. 6 a perspective detail of the cam lever of the clamp.
According to this invention the attachment comprises a spirally coiled wire grip 1 reinforced internally with an auxiliary length of wire 2 turned up at each end 3. l, to prevent sagging of the end coils of the spiral grip. The ends 5, 6, of the wire spiral grip are extended downwardly on each side so as to constitute a yoke and are each formed with a loop or hook 7, 8, to receive a clamping device 0 having a cam lever 9 adapted to grip the sides 10 of the tin and securely hold same. Said clamping device may consist of a jaw 11 formed on one interior side with a groove 12, adapted to receive the cam portion 13 of the lever 9, and constituting the fulcrum of the latter, while the cam 13 is preferably serrated as illustrated in Fig. 6. The other interior side of the jaw is preferably formed with a recess 14, in which the side 10 of the tin is clamped by the cam portion 13 of the ever. The levers are preferably formed with slots 15 with which the loops or hooks '7, 8 of the ends 5, 6, of the grip are engaged, and each lever is non-detachably seated in the jaw 11, by partially closing the lower ends of the jaw during manufacture. To permit of this the jaw is made of malleable metal.
It will be seen by reference to Fig. 2 that when the levers 9 are turned down, the sides .10 of the tin may be inserted in the jaw 11, while by turning the levers up as in Fig. 5) the cams 13 clamp said sides, so that a detachable handle is provided. by means of which tins may be used as buckets, or tin buckets fitted with detachable handles.
By reason of the flexibility of the spring wires, 5, G, forming the yoke of the grip 1, they may be stretched to suit tins of variable size within limits.
I claim 1. A handle clamp for tin receptacles consisting of a jaw member to embrace the edge of the receptacle, a cam member consisting: of a cam proper and an eyelet to engage the handle, the cam having its greatest dimension normal to the wall of the re ceptacle at that point, and at right angles to the line connecting the eyelet and the cam, and equal to the greatest distance between the jaws, decreased by the thickness of the tin.
A handle clamp for tin receptacles consisting of a jaw member to embrace the edge of the receptacle, a cam member consisting: of a cam proper and an eyelet to engage the handle, the cam having its greatest dimension normal to the wall of the receptacle at that point, and at right angles to the line connecting the eyelet and the cam, and equal to the greatest distance between the jaws, decreased by the thickness of the tin. the jaw opening being; reduced at the mouth and of greater dimension at a point back from the mouth.
A handle clamp for sheet metal receptacles, consisting of two rigid jaw members to embrace the edge portion of the receptaole, a member cooperating with each jaw member and having a cam portion, and means for engaging a handle, the greatest dimension normal to the wall of the receptacle at that point, and of the cam member being at right angles to a straight line joining the center of the cam to the handle engaging means, and said dimension being equal to the greatest distance between the 5 jaws decreased by the thickness of the sheet meta].
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set t my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
