UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS E. BRALEY, OF WICHITA, KANSAS, ASSIGNOB TO LOUIS SCHWAB, DOING BUSI- NESS AS STEVENS & COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
ASSEMBLING CLAMP.
Application filed April 11, 1924.
Be it known that I, THoMAs E. BRALEY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of /Vichita, in the county of Sedgwick and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Assembling Clamps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of clamps which is intended for holding parts in assembled relation while they are being secured permanently in place; and my improvements are particularly directed to such a clamp which is designed for holding the engine manifold of a Ford automobile, or similar engine, in proper position relative to the engine block while the anchor bolts are being applied thereto.
In practice, when the manifold and carliuretor of such engines have been tenta tively assembled with, but not anchored to the engine block, they are apt to fall out of position before they can be securely fastened, unless they are held in place by the mechanic manually or through the use of some special appliance, such as my improved clamp.
In the drawings, Fig. l is a side elevation of my improved clamp, showing it applied to a manifold and engine block; Fig. 2 is an end view of the clamp, looking to the right on Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is a detail of the end of the clamp shown at the right of Fig. 1, but with the cam lock released.
The same parts are designated by the same reference numerals in all the figures.
The body 1 of the clamp is formed of a U shaped yoke, one end of which is adapted to engage against the back of the engine block 0, while the other end 3 will lie outside of the manifold when assembled against the engine block.
To the end 3 is pivoted an arm 4, having a forked end 5 adapted to engage the manifold 6 at two points to give lateral stability to the clamp; while the other end 7 of the arm projects up into the path of a cam lug 8 projecting from one side of a locking bar 9 pivoted to the body 1, so that when the locking bar 9 is dropped, as in Fig. 1, its lug will engage behind the end 7 of the arm 4: and keep the end 5 thereof pressed Serial No. 705,733.
in against the manifold, as shown in Fig. 1, thus safely holding the manifold in position while the anchor bolts are being made fast. To release the clamp, the locking bar is raised, as in Fig. 3, allowing the end 5 to swing out from the manifold so that the clamp may be removed readily from the engine and manifold.
It will be understood that this is a typical but not an exclusive form of embodiment of my invention. For details may be modified, as by the use of mechanical equivalents, without departing from the scope of my invention as claimed.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
1. In an assembling clamp for internal combustion engines, the combination of a yoke adapted to straddle an engine block and a positioned manifold, manifold engaging means pivoted to one end of the yoke, and locking means for controlling said pivoted means.
2. In an assembling clamp for internal combustion engines, the combination of a yoke adapted to straddle an engine block and a positioned manifold, manifold engaging means pivoted to one end of the yoke and provided with a bifurcated terniinal, and locking means for controlling said pivoted means.
3. In an assembling clamp for internal combustion engines, the combination of a yoke adapted to straddle an engine block and a positioned manifold, manifold engaging means pivoted to one end of the yoke and provided with a free end, and locking means embodying a pivoted latch for controlling said pivoted means.
4:. In an. assembling clamp for internal combustion engines, the combination of a yoke adapted to straddle an engine block and a positioned manifold, manifold engaging means pivoted to one end of the yoke and provided with a free end, and locking means embodying a pivoted latch provided with a lateral lug for engaging with the free end of the manifold engaging means to lock the same releasably, for controlling said pivoted means.
THOMAS E. BRALEY.
