Description
ALICE URILLA DAVIS. OF EL PASO, TEXAS.
PAPER-GUIDE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 8,1912.
Application filed December 12, 1911. Serial No. 665,222.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALICE U. DAVIS, a citizen of the United States, and a resident f El Paso, in the county of El Paso and S a e of Texas, have invented a new and 1m.- proved Paper-Guide, of which the following is a full, clear,and exact description.
Among the principal objects for which the present invention is designed are: to provide means forguiding the paper and carbon inserts to and from a typewriting machine cylinder, to revent the disarrangement of the sheets ot paper or carbon inserts carried thereby, after delivering from the platen; and to provide means for holding the paper, which are light, simple and durable in construction.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views, and in which Figure 1 is a side View of a fragment of the frame of a typewriting machine, showing in conjunction therewith means for guiding the paper on delivery from the platen, said means being constructed and arranged in accordance with the present invention; Fig. 2 is a detail view, on an enlarged scale, showing a top view of the paper-support and guide constructed and arranged in accordanc .vith the present invention; Fig. 3 is an edge view of the guideyFig. 4 is a detail view, showing in its separate relation the back bar to the guide; Fig.' 5 is a detail view, on an enlarged scale,, showing the mounting of the back bar and bracket arms; Fig. 6 is a detail view in section, taken on the line 66 in Fig. 5; Fig. 7 is a detail view in section, taken on the line 7-7 in Fig. 3;
and F ig. 8 is a detail view in section, taken on the line 88 in Fig. 2.
An advantage in the use of this particular device is that the limp carbons are prevented from fallin or curling between the leaves of the paper before the paper and carbons enter the paper-feeding device, thus preventing blank spaces on the carbon copies. It is for this purpose that the attachment of the device is made to the sides of the paper table 15, which paper table is usually furnished in typewriting machines. The support and guide herein shown is formed as a rectangle lar H-trame, the parallel members of which are formed by bracket- bars 16, 16. The bars 16, 16, at the outer ends, are provi-ik-d with elongated slots 17. Each slot 17 holds snugly the squarr shank 18 of each screw 19. The shank 18 is rcctan ular, the opposite sides of the said shank being each adapted to fit one of the slots 20, 20 formed in the rest-bar 21, (seen best in Fig. 4 of drawings) The length of the shank 18 is slightly less than the combined thicknesses ot' one ot' the bars 16 and the rest-bar 21. This discrepancy in lengthof the shank permits the clamping of the bars 16 and 21 between the head 22 formed at the outer side of the shank 18 and the flange of a milled nut 23. The milled nuts 23, 23 are each tapped to register with the threads of the screws 19.
The lower ends of the bars 16 are each provided with an underturned section 24;, and an overturned section 25. The sections 21 and are separated, (as seen best at Fig. 8 of drawings), to straddle the lateral edges of the paper table 15. The section 25 is-tapped to provide a threaded perforation with which the threads of a screw 26 register. When the screws 26, 26 are upset hard against the table 15, the bars 16 are held rigidly in adjusted position.
-At the outer ends of the rest-bar 21 are provided tapped and threaded perforations operative position a holding bar 31 (seen best in Fig. 2 of drawings). At each end of the holding bar 31 is formed an eyelet 32. The enlarged portion of the eyelet 32 is formed to a dimension ca able of passing the screw 29 and the b0 y of the shank wherein is formed the groove 30. The narrowed portion of the eyelet 32 is formed to a dimension to snugly fit the shank of the 100 screw 29 within the groove 30. By means of this arrangement, the holding bar 31 is quickly ad usted in position to overrlde the paper as the same is delivered from the ph-itcn of the typewriting machine. The ad-- jusiment is elieclted by superposing the enlarged portions of the eyelets 32 over the heads of the screws 29,ni1til the same register with the grooves 30, when, the bar 31 being moved toward the narrowed secti -ns .110
of the e -Jelets, the said narrowed sect-ions the eyelets straddle the reduced shank within the groove 30. Screws 29 are threaded to allow them to be screwed in'and out, thus making the space between the back bar,
. screws 26, the rest-bar 21 is adjusted to suit the. length and character of the paper being used in the typewriting machine. In making this adjustment, the method pursued by the operator is to loosen the nuts 23. This releases the clamping engagement of the bars 16 and 21; the bar 21 is then moved lengthwise of the slots 17 in the bar 16. In all positions of the bars 16 and 21, the shanks l8 maintain the perpendicular relation or" the said bars. When the adjustments between the bars 16 and 21 have been properly attained, the nuts 23 are set up against the exposed surface of the bars 16, to clamp said bars 16 and 21 in fixed relation. If preferred, the holding bar 31 may be removed While making the adjustment above described. When the paper A is placed in printing position upon the platen B of the machine, the upper ed c thereof is bent down to rest upon the 1 ar 21. 'While the paper in this position, the holding bar 31. is adjusted upon the screws 29, and shifted ,to look within 'the grooves 30' thereof.
Thereafter, the paper is uided as it is delivered from the platen and is held in s'u'chposit-ion that the carbon inserts do not fold over or become. otherwise disadjusted between the sheets of paper being imprinted. ,Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 2- 1. A paper guide, comprising a plurality of supporting arms; a rest-bar adjustably mounted on said supporting arms; and a holding member detachably mounted upon said rest-bar to form a guiding slot for the paper as delivered to and, from the platen of a typewriting machine. 7 i
2. A paper guide, comprising a plurality of longitudinally slotted supporting'bars; a cross-bar having adjacent the ends thereof longitudinally-disposed slots; a rectangular sliding member disposed insaid slots to maintain said bars in perpendicular relation; means for clampin said bars in fixed' relation; a holdin bar" is'posed abovesaid rest-bar; and suitable butt-on and eyelet connections between said rest-bar arid said holding bar.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. 1
