HANDLE FOR TooLs.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 772,738, dated October 18, 1904. Application filed December 29, 1902. Serial No. 136,986. (No model.)
Be it'known that l, (isomer-1A. MoKnnL, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Jackson, in the countyof Jackson and State of .\lichigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Handles for a solid or continuous ring without joint or seam; fourth. the lower portion of the tubu-' lar shank 1s reinforced whenever desired to secure greater strength; fiftlnthc prongs may be also reinforced, asshown, for increasing the strength when desired. other advantages and benefits being apparent from the followin the drawings forming part of this specification. and in which liketigures of reference refer to similar parts, Figure 1 is a plan view of the plate of metal out of which the handle is made with a cup shaped portion drawn out of the middle thereof to form the tubular shank portion. Fig. 2 is a section view of the same on the line a of Fig. 1. Fig.3 is a perspective view of the blank after the edges of the extremities have been partially turned up to form the prongs. I Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the handle-frame after the prongs have been bent upward to form the forks for receiving the'hand piece. Fig. 5 shows an ad-v ditional ,piece which may be employed for strengthening the forks when desired. Fig. 6 is a section view of the complete handle with the reinforcement shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 shows another form in which a bead is pressed in the outer surface of the prongs.
In the construction of my said handle I use a blank or plate of the shape shown at 1 in Fig. 1, preferably of sheet-steel. At a mid- 5d dlc point therein I draw out acup-shaped portion 2 by means of suitable dies, and when this has been drawn to the proper depth to form the tubular shank required for the completed handle I punch out a hole from the middle of the bottom, as 3, of a less diameter than thcdiameter of said cup-shaped portion. Later on I turn up the rim thus formed at the bottom of said cup-shaped portion to reinforce the lower extremity of said tubular shank, and this is finally rolled to increase the size of the lower extremity to the size required and forming a ridgcat 12 on the outer side of approximately the thickness of said metal. 5
To form the prongs, the ends of said plate 1', as 4 and 5, are rounded longitudinally with the edges 8 and 9 turned up, thus forming the middle portion into a rounded part for the outside of the prongs and the inside flat, 7
as shown by the edges 8 and 9. These edges are later turned in until they meet and form the interior portion of the prongs, as shown in Fig. 4. The prongs are finally curved up to form the forks or prongs to support the handpiece 11, and the ends of said prongs are trimmed and punched to receive the rivet 10, which is passed through said two prongs and said handpiece and riveted securely in place, the whole thus forming a D-shaped handle, the frame being formeg from a single piece of sheet metal suitable for receiving the bandpiece and also with a suitable tubular shank for attaching the wooden handles for fork and implement handles. 5
If it is desired, the handlesmay be constructed with a head in the outer surface of the prongs to improve the appearance thereof and facilitate the manufacture by permitting the edges to be rolled B". when the inside, portions of said pron'g are rolled, as shown. in Fig. 7. The said prongs may be further reinforced, if desired, by rolling inprongs, as shown in Fig. 6, before the inside part thereof is rolled dovn.
By this construction it will be seen that a handle-frame may be made, as above set forth, out of a single piece of sheet metal, which can beformed into the proper shape to receive Patent. is the following:
and support a handpiece. The tubularshank the said handle may be further strengthened may be made into a complete shank without seam or joint, which makes it much stronger than those heretofore made out of sheet metal.
I In addition to this said tubular shank may be reinforced, as shown, by turning up the rim. as shown, to double the thickness of said tubular shank at the lower extremity and double the strength thereof. It will further be seen that by the addition of the piece shown in Fig. 5, and this may be made of the proper weight and strength to make the handle strong enough for any place or purpose.
Particular attention is invited to the arrangement of the seam on the inside of the handle. metal and the emplovmentof aseainlessshank, a combination which is of great importance and, so far as I am aware, is entirely new in this art. Another advantage of having the seam on the inside arises at the upper ends of the prongs. it will he observed by reference to Fig. 6 that the ends of the handpiece 11 abut against the seam, and thus pre ent the same spreading. \Vith outside seams the small-headed rivet cannot hold the parts together. 'ith the present structure this objection is overcome.
'hile l have shown my said invention as made from a single piece, as aforesaid, it is apparent that said handle may be made with additional pieces or parts without in any manner departing from the spirit of my said invention. It is also apparent that although I have shown my said invention as made without the use of solder or brazing ofany kind This handle permits the use ofsheet my said invention and the handle be ver v much strengthened thereby.
Having thus described my said invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Lette s 1. A tool-handle ineluding a portion formed from a single piece of metal, said portion having a portion drawn therefrom to form a seamless shank, the said shank having its free end folded inwardly and offset to make it flush with the interior of the shank.
2. In a handle, the combination with spaced hollow prongs, of a reinforcing-piece located within the prongs, a handpiece extending across the space between the prongs, and a rivet piercing the handpiece, the prongs and the ends of the reinforcing-piece.
3. In a handle,the combination with a single piece of metal bent to form spaced, hollow prongs and a tubular shank, of a reinforcingpiece located within the prongs, a handpiece located within the spaced prongs, a handpiece bridging the free extremities of the prongs, and means for secu ring the forme r to the latter.
