Description: |
| Corresponding U.S. patent 765,569 was granted July 10, 1904.
Abstract: "A wrench for pipes and other work consists of a hand-piece A with two guides having enlarged ends a<6> bearing against shoulders in a vertical slot passing through the screwed part of the movable jaw C, the other end of the slot being closed by a projection on a filler D. The jaw C is moved by a nut B fitted loosely between the guides on the hand-piece and pressed down by a spring d'. The piece A has a shoulder A<4>, and its jaw, which is fixed in a slot, has a shoulder A<5>, which shoulders contact with the movable jaw and prevent straining. For use as a monkey wrench, the jaws are not toothed, and the spring is removed, the nut B also fitting closely between the guides."
The "monkey wrench" version was produced as the TRIMO MONKEY WRENCH, with a thin profile 10 inch long version marketed as the AUTO.
Note: Early British patents (pre 1916) were numbered by the year and started at patent #1 at the start of each year in January. The patent # used in DATAMP represents the year of registration and the patent # (with "leading zeros" interposed to make the number total nine digits). This patent is #16,376 of the year 1904. |
