N0 ]6(),36() Patented March 2,1875.
THE GRAPHIC C0.PHOTb-LITH.39 841 PARK PLACE, N.Y
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
LEXOR B. SNOW, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND L. GRANT MEDDAUGH, OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVEMENT IN GRAPE AND FLOWER PICKERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 160,360, dated March 2, 1875; application filed March 21, 1874.
The instrument consists of two blades orknives, Aand B, working on a pivot, at O, by grasping and compressing the two handles or short levers D and E. As the stem at F is severed, it is grasped and held firmly by a double metallic spring, G, which, passing through and held loosely by a clamp, O, which also forms the pivot, diverges from that point, and passes along the under side of each knife, and is curved and riveted at H, performing the double office of holding open the blades of the knife and grasping the stem.
Figurel shows the under side of the instrument with the blades open. Fig. 2 shows the position of the blades and spring when the handles are compressed. Fig. 3 is the side view of the blade and spring. Fig. 4 is the upper view of the instrument.
I claim for my invention the combination of the following elements:
First, the blade A secondly, the blade B thirdly, the device 0, which performs the double function of a pivot for the blades, and a clamp in which the spring is secured; fourthly, the spring G, formed of a single piece of metal, and performing the double oflice of holding open the blades at exactly the required distance and grasping the stem, as and for the purposes described.
