This invention relates to tongs and is adaptpunch whereby to securely retain the same in ed particularly for use by blacksmiths for the position between said jaws. i purpose of holding the work in a positive The off-set section of the jaw 6 is promanner while the same is being shaped or vided with aplurality of transversely extend-y 5 formed in a desired manner. ing openings 14 adapted to receive pins 15, 55
The invention has for an important obsuch as cotter pins or the like, with the ends ject the provision of means for adjusting of said pins engageable with the edges of the jaws of the tongs with respect to each the off-set portion 8 of the other jaw whereby other and securing the same in adjusted posito retain the jaws against relative longitu- 16 tion. 4 dinal movement occurring thereon, namely in 60 Another object is to provide a tool of this one direction. By moving the pins into the character in which the parts entering into various openings the jaws may be secured in the construction thereof are reduced to a longitudinally adjusted position. In this minimum, which is strong and durable, and manner the gripping area of the edge 13 of 15 relatively inexpensive to manufacture. the jaw 6 may be increased to accommodate 65 Other objects and advantages reside in the various sized objects. If desired one of such special construction, combination and arpins may be inserted in the openings forwardrangement of the various elements forming ly and rearwardly of the edges of the offset the invention as more fully hereinafter 'deportion 8 to limit the extent of relative lonscribed and claimed, reference being had gitudinal movement in either direction. '70 to the accompanying drawing forming part When only one pin 15 is used, the same will hereof, wherein: serve to limit the relative longitudinal move- The' drawing illustrates a perspective view ment of the jaws in one direction in order of the invention illustrating the construction to indicate the proper position of the jaws thereof and showing the manner in which for engaging work of a predetermined size, the jaws may be adjustably arranged. but at the same time, provides for the move- Referring now tothe drawing, we have ment of the jaws in an opposite direction to illustrated our invention comprising a tool enable the gripping of objects of either a adapted for use as a pair of tongs and formed larger or smaller size, depending upon the 0 of a pair of angular arms one end of each placing o-f the pin forwardly or rearwardlyv 80 thereof constituting handles 5 with their opof the oset 8, as the case may be, without posite ends formed into jaws 6 and 7 respecnecessitating a removal of the pin for the adtively, said jaws being off-set longitudinally justment thereof. with respect to the handle portion, the off-set It is obvious that the invention -is susportion 8 for the jaw 7 having a slotted openceptible to various changes and modifications 85 ing 9 extending longitudinally therethrough without departing from the spirit thereof and through which is inserted the olf-set poror the scope of the appended claim and we tion 10 of the other jaw 6. It will be obaccordingly claim all such forms of the deserved that the jaw 6 is relatively narrower vice to which we are entitled. Y than the jaw 7 whereby to permit the same le claim: 90 n to be readily inserted through the slot 9. In a tool of the class described, a pair of The jaw 7 is provided with a flattened jaws having handles formed at one end theregripping surface as indicated at 11 whereof, said jaws being oset longitudinally with 5 as the gripping edge of the jaw 6 is hoolrespect to said handles, one of said jaws hav-.j` 5
shaped having its extreme end 12 Hattened ing its offset section provided with a longifor engagement with the flattened gripping tudinally extending slotted opening adapted surface of the opposite jaw, the inner edge to receive the offset sections of said opposite 13 of the hook-shaped portion of the jaw bejaw therein for the opening and closing move- 50 ing adapted to embrace the side of a roundment of the jaws upon the operation of the- 100 ed object, such as for instance, a chisel or handles and also providing a mounting for the longitudinal movement of the jaws with respect to each other, said other offset sections having a plurality of transversely arranged openings, afpin removably carried in 5 said openings adapted for vengagement with one edge of said slotted offset section for retaining the jaws against longitudinal movement` in one direction and vpe-irrnitting free longitudinal'movement in an opposite direc- 10 tion, one of said jaws having a flattened grip- Y ping sunfa'eefiandsaidi"other jaw having a hook shaped end providing a gripping sur- `face at its inner edge and adapted to have its gripping area regulated by the longi- 15 tudinal adjustment of said aws.
