Patent No. 836,026.,
My invention is well adapted for plates carrying addresses for use in an addressingr machine. A number of addresses may be carried on one plate, or the plates may be individual, one for each address, as desired. The invention is hereinafter more fully explained and its essential characteristics set out in the claims.
ln thel drawings, Figure lis a perspective of a type-carrying plate embodying my invention, it being understood that the same may be made of any length and carry any number of addresses; Figff is an enlarged section of the same; Fig. 8 is a pen spective of the type oit the character which As'shown in the drawings, A designates a plate' preferably of sheet metal, adapted to carry the type lines, the plate as shown carryingl a number of groups of lines, each being adapted to represent an4 address. v
The type carried bythe dividual types or logotypes. In the drawing, B designates such individual type, each type being formed with grooves b' on its opposite sides. This type is also formed, as shown, with a beveled toot b for convenient operation in an assembling and dis- Type so formed are made in accordance withand covered by mypla-te may be in- B represents a logotype. I have shown the address proper, as composed of individual type and the salutation as the logotype; however, such arrangement may be i'eversed or inodied, ,as desired.
The printing members are carried in the slotsl a, a in what may be called the body portion of the plate, the grooves iin the sides of the' type being occupied by the edges of the plate adjacent to the slot. It will be apparent that. grooved type the construction shown may be held in place in the slots in lines, as desired. It will be further apparent that, as the base portions ot the types are of greater width .than the slots, it will be necessary either to leave the slot entirely open at the'end or to provide some enlargement for the insertion of the base of the type. lTo leave the slots open at the end after the manner of a comb would leave the eitective. .On the other hand, to provide enlargements in the plane of the plate opposite the ends of the slots requires a double movement of the type in being inserted, lirst into the enlargement and then at right angles thereto along the slot. Now l have discovered that l can provide the enlargement without unduly weakening the plate and in a form which will allow the passage of the type in a continuous straight `movement into the slots by offsetting the plate adjacent to the ends of the slots and forniing' the enlargement in suoli odset. This offset, or loading portion of theeplate, is designated in the drawing as a2. It may be plate entirely too weakv and limber to be made at an angle of about 4-5 degrees to the sslots. By this means the plate is adapted for most convenient cooperation with a suitable assembling or distributing mechanism, or for placing or removing the type by hand,
i either assembling and distributing them di-' rectly from the plate, or simply inserting a previously assembled line, or removing a line for subsequent distribution.
'It Will be apparent that either individual type or logotypes may be inserted through Beyond the offset, the
tion, the other extreme portion being out qualification,
linotypes, or other printing"members.-
the openings a4, as desired; and, as heretofore stated, in place of the individual type forming the body of the address, logotypes may be used for this purpose, if desired. Where I use the term type herein, with- I intend it to include logoy invention ,is primarily adapted for carrying metal type, and such type may well carry a typewriter font whereby the address may be printed through a ribbon in imitation of typewritten matter.
or to metal type, as it may be advantageously used with other forms. When metal type are emplo ed, I use suitable stops, as rubber plugs forced into the slots after the type are installed to hold them in place.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
l. A stiff type-carrying plate having ay permanent offset in its plane, a slot in the plate, and an enlargement communicating with the slot and located in 'the offset. f
2. A typeholding plate made of a sheet of metal bent into two extreme portions connected by an intermediate portion, a plurality of parallel slots in one of the extreme portions, and enlargements of saidslots respectively ing with the slot, said opening being of larger width than the slot, and type having grooves in its opposite sides adapted to be passed through the' enlargement and slid along the slo l 4. A stiff type-holding plate having a lurality of parallel slots through it, an o set in the plate transverse of the Slots, and enlargements at the ends of` the slots through such offset, the plate being continuous beyond Vthe enlargements andv thereby bracing the strips between them.
5. A type-holding plate made in three planes, two of them parallel and connected by an offset portion, a slot in one of the planes, and an enlargement at the end of the slot in the oiset portion.l
6. A type-holding plate made in three planes, two of them parallel and connected by an odset portion, a slotI in one of the planes, the slot in the offset portion, combined with type having grooves on its opposite sides and having bases below the'grcoves Copies of this patent may beobtained for ive cents each, by K'Washington, D. G.
The invention, however, is not limited to typewriter type, 'h
and an enlargement at the -end ofv 7. A typeholding plate having a plurality' of typeholding slots, saidv plate having'a portion at an angle to such slots, and enlarged openings through the said portion connnunicatin with the slots.
8. A typeho ding plate bent from a single sheet of metal and' having an address carrying portion, an o'l'set portion and a bracing portion, the address carrying portion having parallel slots in it, the offset portion aving enlargements communicating with such slots,- an'd vthe'bracing portion extending crosswise'of the slots and enlargements and connected with the portions vof vthe plate which 'are outside of the extreme slots and between the slots. Y
V9. A typ'ecarryingl rality of slots arrange the slots inthe group lengths, the said slots end, and the closed ends occupying a stepped relation. to each other in the roup.
10. A typeholding vplate aving a plurality'of typeholding slots, said p ate having a portion at an angle to such slots, and enlarged openings through 'the-said portion communicating with .the slots, vsaid plate late having a plu being closed at one having a continuous portion beyond the enlargements connected with the material of the plate between the enlargements.
11. A typecarrying plate havin a body portion with slots through it, a loading portion at an angle to the body portion having enlargements through it communicating with the slots of the body' portion, a bracinof portion beyond the enlargements connected with the material of the plate betweenthe type 'grooved on its opposite sides occupying the slots of the body porenlargements,
tion and .removable therefrom individually through the enlarged openings, and individual stops occupying the slots at one end of the type'lines to prevent inopportune displacement of the typeV therein.
12. A printing device comprising a plate having an edge flange-and providedwith a typeslot having one end intersecting the flanged edge of the` plate, the Harige having an opening communicating with and wider than that part of the slot which intersects the iianged edge of the plate to permit the introduction of type through the opening into the slot.
lIn testimony whereof, I hereunto atlix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
