PRINTER S DRYING-BACK.
Patented Aug. 5,1913.
Serial No. 731,144.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN L. SoorrnLD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of San Diego, in the county of San Diego and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Printers Drying-Racks, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to apparatus for rinting oflices, and some of the objects of my improvement are, facility of drying printed matter, to prevent offsetting, to prevent the sheets of paper sticking together, to save room and yet provide for spreading large quantities of printed sheets, simplicity and economy of construction, simplicity of operation, and saving of labor.
These and other objects I attain by means of the apparatus illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a plan view; and, Fig. 2 is a side elevation.
Similar reference numbers refer to similar parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
A stand, 1, and plates, 2, comprise the principal parts of the apparatus.
The stand 1 is preferably made of wood and comprises a bottom board, 3, and avertical end board, 1. In the right angle formed by the junction of board3 and board 4, I prefer to place a right-angular block, 5, and secure it rigidly in place. The plates or leaves 2 consist preferably of wood boards and may be made of veneered stock and are preferably comparatively thin. They are rectangular and provided at one end with cleats or battens, 6, to stiffen and protect the ends from warping and split ting or other injury, and also serve as spacing blocks between successive plates.
The end opposite cleats 6 is provided with. a cleat, 7, similarly arranged as cleat 6, but comparatively thinner and may be made of metal. The cleat 7 is also for protection of the end of the plate and furthermore to serve as means for securing hinges, 8. The hinges 8 are firmly secured to the one end of plates 2 and serve to hinge the plates to the slanting hypotenuse of the block 5. The plates 2 vary in length, being successively longer from the lowest to the uppermost, and are hinged to block 5, which is a part of stand 1, in stepped relation after the manner of stair steps, and are arranged in mutual parallel relation, being spaced apart by cleats 6 at one end and the hinges 8, in the position described, at the opposite end. Being hinged in stepped relation, the plates 2 are adapted for folding upward a little beyond vertical position, where they are held by gravity alone (Fig. 2) and for successively folding down into operative posltion as needed for placing printed matter, 9, upon them for drying.
The operation of the apparatus will now be readily understood. All the plates 2 are folded upward to vertical posit-ion preparatory for use. As the printing proceeds, the printed sheets are placed in suitable layers 9, first upon the bottom board 3 of stand 1. The height of these layers or piles 9 depends upon the quality of paper and the kind of printing. If the paper is smooth and calendered hard, so that it does not readily absorb the ink, the piles comprise but few sheets, but if the paper is soft and readily absorbs the ink, the layers may be made higher, the object being to permit the ink to dry thoroughly without smearing or offsetting from one sheet to the back of the next sheet above and also to prevent the sheets sticking together. After the bot-tom 3 has been covered to its capacity, the first plate 2 is folded down and rests above the layers 9 without coming into contact there with and will support another series of layers independently of those below or those that may be placed above. It will thus be seen that a large area for drying is provided, which occupies but little space in the oflice. When removing the piles from the plates 2, the successive plates, as they are cleared, may be folded up so as to expose those below. The apparatus is comparatively inexpensive of manufacture, occupies a comparatively small space, is light and easily handled, and obviously is very dura ble.
Having thus described my invention, so that anyone skilled in the art pertaining thereto may understand its construction and use, I claim:
1. A printers drying rack, comprising a stand, and plates upon which printed matter is placed for drying arranged in a vertical pile in mutual parallel relation and hinged at one of their ends to said stand, said plates being successively longer from the lowest upward, and their hinged ends being arranged in stepped relation after the manner of stair steps, whereby they may be folded in substantially vertical position and brought down to horizontal operative position successively as needed.
2. A printers drying rack, comprising a stand, and plates upon which printed matter is placed for drying arranged in a vertical pile in mutual parallel relation spacing cleats provided on the free ends of said plates, said plates being hinged at one of their ends to said stand and being successively longer from the lowest upward, and their hinged ends being arranged in stepped relation after the manner of stair steps, whereby they may be folded in substantially vertical position and brought down to horizontal operative position successively as needed.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto sub scribed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
