ABSTRACT:
A chain linking device utilizes a rod of steel round stock, wherein one end of the rod is bent to form a hook while the remaining straight section is threaded. A sleeve and pin member includes a sleeve, with an inner diameter slightly larger than the round stock which fits over the threaded portion of the round stock. A straight pin is formed with or attached to the sleeve so as to protrude radially outward. A washer and a nut are located on the threaded round stock following the sleeve. In use, the hook on the end of the rod is inserted in a gap within the chain several links removed from a free end of the separated or broken chain. The pin on the sleeve and pin member then is inserted in a comparable location several links removed from the other free end of the separation. A wrench is used to rotate the nut, so as to force the sleeve and pin member along the threaded rod toward the hooked end, which movement pulls the separated ends of the chain closer together and holds them in position so as to allow the insertion of a master-type or repair link to connect the break or separation.
