SAD-IRON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 633,659, dated September 26, 1899.
A li ati fil d March 18, 1899. Serial No. 709,653. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, JOHN W. PETTIJOHN and JOHN GLENN, citizens of the United States, residing at Montesano, in the county of Ohehalis and State of lVashington, haveinvented a new and useful Sad-Iron, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sad-irons, and has for its object to provide a detachable handle therefor having animproved interlocking engagement therewith and which may be detached from the iron without the employment of both hands.
To this end the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawings, Figure l is a side elevation of the device. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional View thereof. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view on the line as m, Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the body of the sad-iron, the handle being removed.
Like numerals of reference denote like and corresponding parts in each of the several figures of the drawings.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, 1 designates the body of the sad-iron, having a longitudinal rib 2 extending nearly the entire length of the upper face of the iron. In cross-section the rib is dovetailed, having its opposite side faces 3 converging downward. The rear end of the rib is rounded upwardly, as at at, and a recess 5 is provided in the upper face of the rib near its rear end. The toe 6 of the body of the iron is thickened, forming stop-shoulders extending above the upper flat face of the iron, and at opposite sides of the centrally-located rib 2 each shoulder is provided with a recess 7. i
The handle 8 may be of any preferred form and is provided with a flat base-piece 9, connecting the legs 10 of the handle. A dovetailed groove 11 is provided in the under face of the base piece and extends the entire length thereof, being open at both ends. At opposite sides of the groove and at the forward end of the base-piece is provided lugs or fingers 12. The handle is adapted to be mounted upon the body of the sad-iron by engaging the rib 2 with the groove 11 and sliding the handle forward thereon until the lugs 12 are received within the respective recesses 7 in the toe of the iron-body. construction and arrangement the handle is connected to the iron-body.
To prevent the handle from being accidentally disengaged from the body of the iron, a locking-key is provided, consisting of a block 13, which is carried in a vertical slot 1.4:, formed through the base-piece 9 and adapted to aline with the recess formed in the rib 2 when the handle has been fitted in place. The block is operated by means of a lever 15, connected at one end to the block and pivoted intermediate of its ends in a slot 16, formed in the front leg of the handle. This lever ex tends through the slot and upward in front of the leg to a point adjacent the forward end of the hand-grasp of the handle, where it is provided with a thumb-piece 17. As shown in the drawings, the lever and thumb-piece are formed from a single length of heavy wire bent intermediate of its ends into an eye 1.8, which receives a pivot-pin 19, carried by the front leg 10 and extending transversely through the slot 16. A staple or eye is provided upon the upper face of the base-piece 9 intermediate the block 13 and the front leg 10 and embracing the lever 15 to hold the same in place. By reason of its weight the lower portion of the block 13 normally hangs within the groove 11, and the forward lower end of the block is rounded, as at 21. In sliding the basepiece upon the rib 2 the rounded end of the block 13 engages the rounded end of the rib and rides up over the same until the vertical slot 14 alines with the recess in the rib, when the block will automatically drop into the recess and lock the handle against accidentallongit-udinal movement upon or displacement from the body of the iron. When it is desired to release the handle, it is simply neeessary to press upon the thumb-piece 17 with the thumb of the hand whichis grasping the handle and the block will be lifted out of engagement with the recess in the longitudinal rib and the handle is free to be removed from the body of the iron. A single handle may be used in conjunction with a plurality of sad-iron bodies.
The construction and arrangement of the By this present invention places the releasing device in convenient control of the hand which is grasping the handle. The interlocking engagelnent between the handle and the body of the iron extends nearly the entire length of the iron, which provides an exceedingly strong and durable connection between the parts. The locking-block being carried within a slot in the base-piece of the handle effectively protects the block from being accidentally disengaged or broken.
Changes in the form, proportion, size, and the minor details of construction within the scope of the appended claim may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificingany of the advantages of this invention.
Having thus described the invention, what we claim is- In a sad-iron, the combination with a base having a dovetailed longitudinal rib, provided with a recess formed in its outer face, of a detachable handle provided with a base-piece connecting the legs thereof, and provided with a dovetailed longitudinal groove slidably receiving the rib of the base, and also a vertical opening located between the legs of the handle and adapted to register with the recess in the rib, the front leg of the handle locking-key, and the forward end of the lever being located in front and alongside of the front leg, and provided with an operating thumb-piece located within convenient reach of the thumb of the hand which grasps the handle, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereto affixed our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
