Description: |
| Chain wrench with provision for adjusting the grip of the chain, and which would grip a range of sizes. The handle has a cam end which rocks within a socket in the jaw section.
The specifications note a pending patent application filed Feb. 6, 1923, and call this design an improvement. The Cantilever Chain Wrench was advertised in oil and gas trade journals in the early and mid-1920s.
The initial application was filed Dec. 17, 1923, and was renewed July 6, 1927.
Corresponding Canadian patent CA-254,158 was granted Sept. 29, 1925.
Carnelli had later chain wrench patents which have some resemblance to aspects of this design. |
