Application filed October 16, 1908. Serial No. $58,059.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMEs R. HUNTER and JACKSON W. Fos'rnn, citizens 'of the United States, residing at Jacksonville, in the county of Duval and State of Florida, have invented a new and useful Wrench, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to tools, and more particularly to the kind used in connection with the laying and removal of railroad rails and known as rail .wrenches.
It has for its object to provide a tool of that kind designed to engage the upper flange of a rail so that the latter may be bent -for rounding curves or straightened when out of true.
Another object is to provide the tool with a s ike claw for" the purpose of extracting spi es from ties. 7
With these and other objects in view, as will more fully hereinafter appear, the pres ent invention consists in certain novel details of construction. and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and more particularly pointed out in the appended It bein understood that various roportion, size and claims. changes in the form, minor details of the evice may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing[ any of the advantages of the invention.
11 the accompanying drawings forming part of this spec1fication, Figure 1 is a vertical section of a rail showing the device applied. thereto. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the device.
Similar numerals :of reference are employed to designate corresponding parts throughout.
In carrying out the invention we provide a lever having at one end a spike claw, a fulcrum bar is pivoted to the lever a short distance from the spike claw and dis oscd between the claw and bar is what wil subsequently be termed a rail engaging socket into which fits one-half of the upper rail flange. The lever 1 is preferably formed of a single piece of metal, rectangular in cross section and rounded off at one end as shown at 2. From the rounded end the upper side of the lever converges inwardly toward the opposite end, whereby a structure substantia ly ri ht triangular in contour is formed.
; A spi e claw is provided by forming a re- Specification of Letters Patent.

cess 3 substantially u shapedadjacent the rounded end of the lever and on'the side opposite the outer side. The outer wall of this recess is bifurcated inthe direction ofiit'he length of the lever so as. to form claw teeth 4.. Cast'integral therewith or otherwise secured to the side of the lever opposite the outer side is a lateralarm 5 substantially S7lk6 claw. The si t e spike claw forms one wall of the U-s aped recess 3, while the o )posite side is provided with a recess 6 parallel to the length of the lever and the inner side-of which is coincident with the inner side of the lever or that opposite the outer side. The metal at the tutcs a, projection v7, the function of which will presently appear. The width of the recess 6 is slightly greater than the thickness of the top or tread flange of an ordinar I'flll". road rail so that when the tool is to at right angles to the length of therail; by now movingthe lever in the proper horizontal direction the upper flange Wlll enter the recess 6, and the terminal of the projection 7 will bear against the-rail web; In order that the device may be operated while in this position to flex the rail or release it from employed.
