EXTENSION TREE-PROP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 8, 1911.
Application filed August 15, 1910. Serial No. 577,340.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES P. TATRo, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of Seattle, in the county of King and State of lVashlngton, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Extension Tree Props, of which the following is a specificatlon.
My invention relates to devices of the above type and aims to provide a novel construction which is simple, comparatively inexpensive to manufacture, can be readily adjusted and positioned for use and W111 be efiicient in operation.
With the above and other objects in view, to be referred to as my description progresses, my invention resides in the features of construction, arrangements and combina tions of parts hereinafter described and succinctly defined in my annexed claims.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, wherein like numerals of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views: Figure 1 is a fragmentary vertical section of the invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective illustrating more particularly the limb seat or rest, on enlarged scale. Fig. 3 is a perspective of the guide member of one of the connecting devices, and Fig. i is a section taken on line H of Fig. 1.
My invention comprises a body part 1 formed of the sections 1, whose contiguous end portions slidably engage one on the other and are loosely received in the open guide members 2, which latter are provided with swingingly supported cam levers 3, and thereby serve as connecting devices which are preferably arranged in spaced relation, as shown.
Reference numeral 8 indicates a base or foot for the body part 1, the same being removably held thereon, as by a pin 9, seated in and depending from said body part.
IVhile the preferred form of my invention hereinbefore described will operate in a satisfactory manner, is simple and capable of being knocked down or set up with ease, I am aware that modifications in the minor details can be readily resorted to, and I therefore do not wish to be understood as restricting my invention to this specific construction except as called for in my annexed claims.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, 1s:-
1. A tree prop comprising a body portion, a socket member on the upper end portion provided with spaced seats, spaced arms removably engaged in the seats of said socket member, and a limb seat carried by said arms.
2, A. tree prop comprising a body part,
a member mounted on the upper end portion of said body part, said member being provided in its side faces with oppositely disposed grooves, upright arms having their lower portions removably engaged in the grooves of said member, and a limb seat extending between and carried by said arms.
3. A tree prop comprising a body part, a member mounted on the upper end portion of said body part said member being provided in its side faces with oppositely disposed grooves, upright arms having their lower portions removably engaged in the grooves of said member, stop lugs on said arms for limiting downward movement of 15 the latter in the grooves of said member, and a limb seat extending between and carried by said arms.
Signed at Seattle, Washington this 9th day of July 1910.
CHARLES P. TATBO. Witnesses STEPHEN A. Bnoons, ARLITA ADAMS.
