Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 11, 1906.
Application filed August 21, 1906. Serial No. 831,435.
To all'whom it may concern.-
'Beitknown that 1, DAVID E. ROWLAND, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Canton,in the countyof Stark and State of Ohio,
have invented certain new and useful Improvements in renches, and I do hereby declare the-following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable othersskilled in the artto which it'appertains to make and use the same, referencebeing had'to the accompanying drawings, and to'the' numerals of reference-marked thereon, which form'a part of this specification.
My invention relates to that class of wrenches in which the movable aw is operated or adjusted by the rotation of the handle.
parts of the wrench properly arranged. Fig.
3 is a transverse section on line 3 3, Fig. 2. Fig.4 is a transverse section on line 4 4, Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a view showing a portion of the shank and illustrating the internal screw- Fig. 6 is a detached view of the non-rotatab1e collar. Fig. 7 is a view showing aportion of the screw-thread ed stem and illustrating'the shank-collar located thereon. 8 is a detached perspective View of the handle-ferrule.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
In the accompanying drawings, 1 represents the shank, which is formed hollow throughout its entirelength and is provided with'the integral jaw 2, which is of ordinary construction. The shank is also provided with the pivoted pipe-grip jaw 3, which pipegrip jaw is of ordinary constructionand has no particular reference to the present inven- *tion.
\Vithin the hollow shank 1 is nor mally located the stem 4, which stem is provided with the jaw 5 and may be provided with the notched or pipe-grip jaw 6 and should be so provided, providing it isdesirable to construct a combined nut and pipe wrench. The stem 4 is formed hollow throughout its entire length, and a portion of said shank is provided with internal screwthreads, which internal screw-threads arefor the purpose of receiving the screw-threads upon the'handle-stem 7, said screw-threads being forthe purpose of providing adjustment as between the'jaw on the shank land the aws upon the stem 4.
The shank 1 is provided'with the shoulders 8, which shoulders are for the urpose of forming seats for the non-rotatab e collar or disk 9, which disk is provided upon one of'its sides or faces with the plain-facededges '10, whichplain-faced edges are seated adjacent the plain-faced edges 11, formed upon the shank 1, as best illustrated in Fig. 5, said plainfaced edges 10 and 1 1 being for the purpose of holding the disk 9 against rotation during the time the wrench-j aws are adjusted to and from each other or during the time the handle-stem is rotated. The handle-stem 7 is provided with the flange 12, which flange is located between the collar or disk 9 and the shank-collar handle is held by means of the screw-threaded nut 15, located upon the screw-threaded part of the tapered handle portion. The handle-stem 7 is provided with the lugs 16,
which lugs are seated in the notches 17,
formed in the web 18 of the ferrule 19. The ferrule 19 is located upon the handle 14,-as illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, and for the purpose of causing the ferrule to rotate with'the rotation of the handle 14 and in turn causing the handle-ste1n 7 to rotate with the handle the webs or flanges 20 are formed upon=the web 18, which flanges are seated in the handle, and the lugs 16 seated in the notches 17.
For the purpose of providing a means for rotating the shank-collar 13 it is provided with the angled flange portion 21, upon which a wrench can be applied.
It will be understood that when the handle and held in fixed relationship therewith by r 14 is rotated it will also rotate the handlev means for imparting rotary motion to the stem 7, which rotation will impart a longitudinal movement to the stem 4,. By locating the flange 12 between the disk 9 and the collar 13 and spacing said parts from each other a distance equal to the thickness of the flange 12, or substantially so, there can be no end movement of the handle-stem 7 independent of the non-adjustable parts of the wrench, thereby holding the handle-stem during the time of its rotation. The non-screw-threaded portion of the stem 4 is formed somewhat larger in diameter than the extreme diameter of the handle-stem 7 and is so formed for the purpose of providing a space between the outer edges of the screw-threads, by which arrangement there is lessliability of any binding as between the stem 4 and the handle-- stem 7. It is well understood that in use heavy strain is frequently brought upon the wrench, which in some instances may have a tendency to slightly spring the handle-stem, which would cause the handle-stem to bind to a greater or less extent if the screw-threads were extended throughout the entire length of the stem 4. To facilitate in properly molding the stem 4, it is formed hollow throughout its entire length and must be so molded to carry out the advantages derived from the open ends of the shank. It will be understood that by providing the collar 9 and locating the same as described the flange 12 will be seated against the face of said collar, thereby providing a perfect seat for said flange to rotate against. By providingthe collar 9 and detachably connecting the same to the shank 1 I am enabled to easily remove said collar for any purpose,
, such as cleaning the inner surface of the shank 1 or for any other purpose.
