Description: |
| This improvement on Wheeler's January 2, 1883 patent (no. 269,902) adds a shield or cover around the functional parts. The shield also reinforces the jaws against lateral strains, and serves as a limit for outward movement of the jaws if the adjusting ring slips off. The wrench as produced matches this patent, although it was marked with the earlier patent date. |
