UNITED STATES JAMES G. DAWSON, OF PORTSMOUTH, OHIO.
TOOL FOR INSEB'IING SPRINGS IN DISTRIBUTORS.
Application filed August as, 1921. Serial No. 495,626.
To all 10 7mm it may concern:
Be it known that I, James G. Dawson, residing at Portsmouth, county of Scioto, and State of Ohio, a citizen of the United States, have invented certain new and use it'ul Improvements in Tools for Inserting Springs in Distributors, of which the following is a specification.
Myinvention relates to an improvement in tools for inserting springs in distributors.
Much diiiiculty, annoyance, inconvenience and expense is experienced in inserting the spring in the distributor on the leverage point or the well-known Remey ignition. The purpose oi my invention is to obviate this difliculty, and it consists in a pair of pliers having jaws with recesses to receive and grasp the opposite edges of the lever, and an integral eXtension having a notch to receive the end of the spring, whereby to hold it in shape and under tension in position on the pintle of the lever, while the entire device is being inserted in place.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. l is a view of the tool applied to the device;
Fig. 2 is a side view of the tool;
a Fig. 3 is an edge View at right-angles to Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 shows two views of the lever taken at right-angles to each other.
The handles 1 and 2 are crossed. and belt together by a pivot 3, as in any other pliers. The jaws 4- and 5 are preferably turned at right-angles, and provided with notches 6 and 7 on their inner edges to receive and loosely fit the opposite edges of the lever 8 of a distributor, as shown in Fig. 1, which is in that way held rigidly by pinching the handles together.
The difliculty in handling a distributor of this character is the spring. This is often applied by the use of the mechanics fingers without a tool, and it is a slow, tedious and expensive job, frequently taking from one 4 half to three-quarters of an hour at least, at an expense perhaps of over a dollar an hour, and even then without taking the tension out of the spring, which is decidedly undesirable.
To obviate this, the jaw l has a finger 10 in the form of an extension of its outer end, and this has a notch 11 which receives the free end of the spring 12 and holds it while the distributor lever and hand-spring are being distributed in place.
Thus in a very simple way, and with an inexpensive but efficient tool, I am able to overcome the objections I have mentioned, and so well-known to everyone using the Henley ignition whenever he suffers the misfortune of havingto have one of these devices inserted, either without a tool, or with one not adapted to the purpose.
I claim:
1. A tool for distributors including two straight and slender members pivoted together and comprising each a handle and jaw on opposite sides of the pivot, said jaws having each a notch on its inner face, and one of said jaws provided with a notched finger at its extreme outer end. 7
2. A tool for distributors including two straight and slender members pivoted together; whereby handles are formed on one side of the pivot and jaws on the other, the members bent so that the handles and awe are substantially at right-angles to each other, one jaw terminating in a finger, and
each jaw having a notch in its inner face,
said notches being located approximately opposite each other.
In testimony whereof I hereunto atlix my signature.
JAMES G. DAWSON.
