ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates, in general, to wire bending tools, and, in particular, to wire bending tools that make it easier to form different shapes.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
In the prior art various types of wire bending tools have been proposed. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,530,576 to Gregory discloses a spring winder which has a first member around which the wire is wrapped, and a second member at a right angle to the first member. The second member has an aperture to receive the end of the wire and turning the first member coils the wire around the first member.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,907,368 to Barnes discloses a wire bending jig with a plurality of different size pegs placed in apertures in a plate and a wire is bent around the different size pegs to produce different shapes.
British patent No. 880,382 to Wood discloses a wire bending jig which has a non symmetrical spacer around which a wire can be bent to produce a specific shape in the wire.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to a wire bending tool kit which has a plate with a plurality of apertures and a plurality of pegs of different sizes which can be inserted into selected apertures in the plate. The pegs have structure for holding wire onto the pegs. In addition, the kit contains a plurality of spacers which can be placed over one or more of the pegs to produce different shapes in the wire as it is being bent. Also, one of the pegs has an aperture therein which allows an end of a wire to be inserted to produce spiral shapes.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved wire bending tool kit.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved wire bending tool kit which will allow jewelry wire to be bent easily and quickly.
