UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SAMUEL E. BARLOW,'OF DENVER, COLORADO.
POWER-OPERATED TON GS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUELE. BARLOW, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city and county of Denver and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Power-Operated Tongs; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and .to handle articles of this character in numbers at a single load and in such a manner that they are held in parallel relation, and to this end I employ a number of pairs of jaws, these pairs being suitably spaced and hingedly connected with an axle, the spaced jaws on the same side of the structure being connected with each other and suitably braced in order to give the required strength and durability.
In all forms of my invention I employ cooperating cylinders and pistons, or other suitable motors, which are connected with fluid, as air under pressure, for operating the jaws of the tongs. In one form of the invention I employ a cylinder and piston for each pair of tongs, the piston of one cylinder having its stem or rod pivotally connected with one of the aws, while the other jaw is pivotally connected with the adjacent head of the cylinder. Then, as fluid under pressure, as air, is introduced into the cylinder in the rear of the piston, the piston will be moved in the cyllnder and the two jaws will be simultaneously actuated for opening purposes. The cylinders may be arranged within the jaws, 'or they may be located above the jaws and connected with the handles or reins of the jaws; or cylinders in both positions may be simultaneously employed if it should be desirable to do so.
aving briefly outlined my improvement,
I will proceed to describe the same in detail,
reference being made to the accompanying Specification of Letters Patent. -Patented July 13, 1920, Application filed March 14. 1919.
Serial No. 282,620.
drawing in which is illustrated an embodiment thereof. In this drawing:
Figure l is an elevation of one form of my improved tongs.
Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, or a view looking in the direction of arrows 2, F ig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an end view, showing a modified form of construction.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts in all the views.
Referring first to Figs. 1 and 2, let the numeral 5 designate each of the individual jaws of two pairs of tongs, these pairs being suitably spaced and journaled on an axle, 6. Between the individual members 5 of each pair of jaws is located a cylinder 7, one head of which is pivotally connected as shown at 8 with a bracket 9 mounted on the adjacent jaw. l Vithin this cylinder is located a piston 10, having a rod, 12, which projects through the head 13 of the cylinder, its outer extremity being pivotally connected as shown at 141, with a bracket 15, secured to the adjacent jaw. The piston rod within the cylinder is surrounded by a spiral spring, 14, which is under normal tension to close the piston or move it to the position corresponding with the closed position of the jaws.
In order to support the extremity of the cylinder-remote from the hinge 8 when the jaws are opened, I employ a spiral spring, 16, which is connected at one extremity with the cylinder, as shown at 17, and at its opposite extremity with a ring, 18, surrounding the axle and arranged between the eyes, 19,1 of the two jaws, 5, at the same end of the ax e.
Assuming that the jaws are closed, air under pressure may be introduced through a pipe, 20, into the cylinder between the head 21 and the piston, with the result that the cylinder and piston are moved in opposite directions and the two jaws 5 simultaneously opened or caused to travel in opposite directions. the movement being from the axis of the axle 6. For the purposeof closing the jaws, fluid, as air under pressure, may be introduced into the opposite end of the cylinder through a pipe 22, though the spring 14 has a tendency to close the jaws and will serve for this purpose unless there is considerable resistance.
In Figs. 1 and 2 the lower portions of the pair of jaws 5, and this is substantially the same as the cylinders 7 in Figs. 1 and 2. However, in the construction shown in Fig. 3, each jaw 5 is continued to form handles or reins, 25, the handle 25 on the left, being continuous with the jaw 5 on the right. In other words, the jaws and their corresponding handles or reins are arranged shearsfashion and cross each other at the axle 6. The handles 25 are continued upwardly and equipped with brackets, 26 and 27. To the bracket 27, one head of a cylinder 28 is pivotally connected, as shown at 29, while the piston 30, within the cylinder, is provided with a stem, 31, which is pivotally connected, as shown at- 32, with a bracket 33, connected with the adjacent rein or handle 25. T he upper extremity of each handle 25 is provided with a hook, 32, which makes it practicable to lift the tongs by means of chains, 34, respectively connected with these hooks and connected at their outer extremities by a ring, 35 with which a hook (not shown) of the llfting apparatus may be connected.
In this form of construction a spring, 16, forms a support for the cylinder, 7, the same as illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, while another spring, 36, is connected with one extremity of the cylinder, 28, and affords the necessary support for the latter. The two springs 16 and 36 may be connected with the same ring, 18, the latter being clearly disclosed in Fig. 1.
The pistons in the cylinders 7 and 28 are operated by fluid pressure and will be connected with the pipes 20 and 22, the same as illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2.
For lifting the tongs a loop, 37, may be connected with the central portion of the axle 6, as' shown in Fig. 2, while in the form of construction shown in Fig. 3, the lift may be either from the axle or from the extremities of the handles or reins, 25, as heretofore explained.
It should also be explained that this construction, instead of consisting of tong arms for lifting long articles as railroad rails, may be constructed to lift fine or. granular material, as dirt, gravel, sand, etc., and hence used for excavating purposes if desired without in any way departm from the spirit of the invention. It is evident that by connecting two pairs of spaced tong arms by metal members which will close the space the tong arms alone are employed.
, consists of a cylinder and piston or other form.
