UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

JOSEPH ALLEN, or PALMYRA, NEW YORK.-

COMBINEIj ANi/ll. ANDYVISE".

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 650,363, dated Ma 29, 1966.

Application filed March 2 1, 1 9 0 To all whom it may concern:

.Be it known that I, JOSEPH ALLEN, of Palmyra, in the county of Wayne and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Anvil and Vise; and I do hereby 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 pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in a combined anvil and vise combining simplicity in construction and cheapness in manufacturing, as the material which it is made of is hard cast scrap-iron.

After the anvilis cast it requires very little labor to produce a practical tool for the farm, shop, or house and which can be furnished to the trade at a low price; and to this end my invention consists in the combination of the several parts, as will hereinafter be described and pointed outin the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view in perspective of my combined anvil and vise. Fig. 2 is a rear view. Fig. 3 is a view of the punch which may be used in connection with my device, and Fig. 4 is a View of a removable horn for the anvil.

A represents the body or web of the anvil, and B the working face, which is hard.

0 is the horn to the anvil.

D is the anvil-seat, the bottom of which is smooth.

E is the jaw to the vise, which opens parallel with the jaw on the anvil.

F is the slide or spline, which is cast solid with the jaw, the upper and lower edges of which are shaped, which goes through the 0. Serial No. 9,549. (No model.)

H is a hardy cast solid to the anvil-seat and body of anvil, handy for opening links or splittingwooden pieces for Wedges.

I is the hole near the head for the hardy:

, J is the punch-block for punching hoops for casks, located under the heel of anvil, a pro jection from the base.

K is the screw to the vise, which is made of American refined iron within a cast-iron head. L is the lever to the same, with knobs cast on ends of lever. I

M M are the slots on the seat'to screw anvil to bench.

N is the nut to the screw, which is cast of soft iron, octagon in shape, as long as the anvil is thick. The body of the anvil is cast around it of hard iron. The nut is also ser rated, so as to hold it solid in the anvil.

0 represents three project-ions formed triangular around, on the rear side of anvil, and the adjustable horn Q.

P is the hardy proper for the anvil.

Q is the adjustable horn. It enters therear of the body of the anvil and is convenient for forming ferrules and can also be used for a punch and variety of uses.

R is the punch proper, that is furnished with each anvil.

S is an extension of anvil-seat D for the support of the jaw and to hold it in its proper place when the vise is in use, especially when a large body is screwed between the jaws, and is important in a small vise when in use for large pieces to hold and keep the jaws parallel and in upright position. It will be observed the extension S is a continuation of the base, which further improves the anvil by adding to it a larger base.

T is a hole near the heel for the hardy.

U is a hole at the bottom on the side of the hole T for the purpose of letting out any dirt or material which may get in.

V is a square piece of soft wrought-iron cast in the body of the anvil, on each upper side of the aperture, for the passage of the spline through the body of the anvil and extends out front and rear one-fourth of an inch, more or loss, which can be bent or upset, which is important, being a cheap way to adjust the spline and jaw in their proper position.

From the foregoing description it will be metal nut united thereto in casting, and a shaped opening extending therethrough beneath the nut, a vise-jaw having the projecting slide F, and screw K, engaging, respectively, with the opening and nut, substantially as shown and described.

2. A combined anvil and vise comprising a cast anvil provided with a shaped opening and with an irregular-shaped metal nut and soft Wrought-metal pieces V, united with the anvil in casting, a vise-jaw, respectively, engaged with the nut and opening, all connected and arranged as shown and described whereby the soft-metal pieces may be swaged to adjust the vise in relation to the anvil.

JOSEPH ALLEN.
