LetteraPatent No. 60,581, dated December 18, 1866.

To ALL wHoM IT MAY ooNonRN:

Be it known thatwe, JOSEPH SIGOURNEY, Azar. T. ROBINSON, and JAMES SHEPARD, of Bristol, county of Hartford, and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and improved Hanger for Stove Hooks, Pokers, and

other light articles used about a stove; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to inake and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a perspective Viewl of our invention.

Figure 2 is a perspective view of the hook or hanger.

Figure 3 is a perspective viewrof a band for holding the hook or hanger upon the pipe.

Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.

Our invention consists in the employment or use of one, two, or more hooks or hangers, each provided with a shank, which shank is received in a swedged groove, made in a band, encircling and fastened or secured upon a stve pipe, about a foot or two above the top of the stove.

E designates a length of stove pipe; F designates the band; A designates the shank of the hook or hanger; B designates the swedged groove to receive and secure the shank A; C designates the shank or pointed end of the band F; D designates an eye, through which the shank C passes, and is then bent or clenched, thus securing or fastening the F upon the pipe. The shank A is then placed in the swedgedgroove B, which brings the hook or hanger in its proper position, and ready for use. g Y

The pipe made by different stove dealers varies in size, although they may term it the saine.4 .Therefore by leaving the pointed or narrow end or shank C narrow enough for an inch (more or less) of it to pass through the eye D, the variation of the pipes will be accommodated.- By fastening or securing the hook or hanger upon the pipe as described, it can readily be placed in position, without taking down or disturbing the pipe. A hook or hanger, riveted upon a band having an eye in each end of the band, might be fastened upon a pipe, by drawing a-small wire through the eyes of the band and twisting or fastening the ends together, but it wouldbe found too expensive. When it is desired to put the hanger upon new pipe before it leaves the tin-shop, a swedged groove canbe riveted upon or made in the pipe, c s the hanger might be riveted directly upon the pipe.

By our invention we produce an article t'o hang 'af s'tovehook 'or'stove-lid lifter, pokers, &c., upon, which can be sold at a very small cost. It will cause the lifter to be kept in a convenient place, and not liable-to be lost; and although it will often be-warm, it can never be heated to a/degree that will burn the hand. The lifter, poker, &c., if hung upon the hanger, will always be ian, and not soil the hands of those who usethem, as they would if left (as they commonly are) in the wood-box o? coal-scuttle. If made in an artistic manner, it will also be ornamental as well useful. It is evident that two or more hooks or hangers can be applied to one pipe if desired. v i i What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

l. The band F, with the swedged groove B, when applied to a stove pipe, in the manner and for the purposes described.

2. In combination with the foregoing, we claim the cast-metall hook or hanger, the whole constructedland used as' set forth.
