I, JOSEPH HAMPTON, the younger, of Old Park Road, Kings Hill, Wednesbury,
in the County of Stafford, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to the improvements hereinafter described in jewellers
vices, and has for its object to provide means whereby the same may be constructed
in a cheaper and better manner than heretofore.
My invention consists essentially in casting two parallel guides to the fixed
jaw of the vice so as to form two flat surfaces for the movable jaw to slide along
which is moved by a screw and handle, the screw passing through the fixed jaw;
the lower part of the movable jaw forming the screw box. The lower portion of
the fixed jaw and the guides form a rectangular shaped box the extreme end being
raised so as to form an anvil, the end of the screw being screwed to this end by a
washer and pin.
I provide the parallel guides with ears furnished with screw holes for con-
necting the vice to a work bench or the like.

by a washer and pin. I provide the parallel guides with ears furnished with
screw holes for connecting the vice to a work bench or the like.
In order that my invention may be clearly understood I will describe it by
reference to the accompanying drawings the same letters referring to similar
parts throughout.
Fig. 1 shows my improved vice in side elevation. Fig. 2 is a plan and Fig. 3
a cross section.
The two parallel guides a, a, are cast to the fixed jaw e, and form flat surfaces
for the moveable jaw b, to slide along which is moved by a screw c, and handle h.
The screw passes through the fixed jaw e, the lower part of the moveable jaw
forming the screw box g. The extreme end of the guides is raised and forms
the anvil s. The end of the screw is secured to this end by a washer m, and
pin n.
The vice is connected to a work bench or the like by means of screws passing
through the ears K.
and ascertained the nature of my
Having now particularly described
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is
The combination in a jewellers parallel vice of the fixed jaw e, cast with the
parallel guides a, a, the moveable jaw g, which forms a screw box for the screw c,
the anvil s and ears k, substantially as herein described and illustrated.
