Description
P. OREND. NEWSPAPER HOLDER. APPLICATION FILED MAR-2, I920.
Patented Apr. 26, 1921.
entree stares PETER OREND, OF CEDAR RAPIDS, IOW'A.
NEWNS]?APEli-HOLDER.
Application filed March 2,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Prxrnn Onnwo, a c1t1- zen of Hungary, formerly Austria-Hungary, residing at Cedar Rapids, in the county of Linn and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Newspaper-Holders, of which the following 1s a specification.
lhe ectof this invention is to provide a convenient holder for newspapers, more especially designed for use out of doors, or wherever currents of wind would blow the parts of a paper about and disarrange them.
The invention consists in providing a light wire frame, to one side of which the folded side of the pa aer is attached, the frame serving to hold the paper straight and flat, and permitting its sheets to be turned over and perused like the leaves of a book.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 illustrates my improved newspaper holder, as in use. Fig. 2 is a view of the same, with the paper detached.
In the drawing, the numeral 5 denotes a rectangular frame formed of wire, the terminals of which meet at the middle to form a twistedanid rib (3. A continuation of the twisted part '7 serves as a shank, and to this attached suitable handle 8. To the ends of the frame as thus outlined, intermediate wires 9 are attached, and from side to side extend cross-wires 10, preferably twisted into the midrib, as shown, The inside wires may be considerably lighter than the mar ginal wires, and where joined to them, and at the crossings, should preferably be sol- (lei-ed fast. The wire should be of material which will spring considerably without permanent bonds. This forms a light grid, easily held in the hand, and giving a stable back support for a newspaper spread over it.
At 11 the wire of the outer frame is GX- panded, and to it is pivoted a clamping wire Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 2e, rest.
1920. Serial No. 362,712.
12. At 13 the wire is similarly expanded, and to it is pivoted a stirrup 142 to engage the lower end. of the clamping wire. The latter is provided with a slight projection at 15 to hold the stirrup in place when engaged.
The page of the paper shown in Fig. 1 represents a back page, rather than the front page, as the title would seem to indicate.
It will be evident that the pages may be turned over the clamping wire, and will be in position for reading, by reversing the holder.
Near the upper corner of the frame to which the clamping wire is pivoteo, is formed an eye 16, by which the holder may be suspended, when not in use, the inclined paper ianging from its folded side flatly and neatly against the frame.
Having thus described my invention, I claim: 1
1. A newspaper-holder, comprising a rectangular frame of wire formed as a grid, with a central, twisted midrib, a handle connected therewith, a clamping wire hinged to the frame near one corner, and a fastener for the free end. thereof attached to the opposite corner on the same side.
2. A newspaper holder, comprising a rectangular outer frame formed of wire, intertwisted in t e middle, lengthwise, and provided with a suita ,e handle, intermediate longitudinal wires of lighter gage connecting with the ends of the frame, similar crosswires connecting with the sides of the frame, and threaded through the midrib, and a clamping wire and fastener to hold the fold of the paper at one side of the frame.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
PETER OREND.
Witnesses F. W. ARMSTRONG, H. S. ROBERTSON.
