Description: |
Loops on the ends of the jaws ride on rods. The pivot points for the jaws are movable. Turning the handle moves the head in and out, and opens or closes the jaws. It is an improvement on Dexter's previous patent (no. 136,907).
Pat. No. 137,130 is Dexter's application of the same principle to a large-scale tool for grasping large objects. |
