APPARATUS FOR USE IN PRINTING OR STENCILING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 16, 1 913.
Application filed October 10, 1911. Serial No. 653,837.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, F RANK TVILLIAM Amn's, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at Eastbourne, Sussex, England, have invented certain new and use ful Improvements in Apparatus for Use in Printing or Stenciling, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates to an apparatus for printing or stenoiling by hand on strip or sheet paper with rubber type or other hand printing type in a clean and regular manner, the effect being the same as it printed from ordinary type locked in a form and printed in an ordinary printing machine.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple and effective apparatus for the use of drapers and other tradesmen in printing special strip or sheet announcements of their goods for displaying in store windows or the like.
A structural embodiment of my invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure 1 is a plan View of the machine. Fig. 2 a front elevation. Fig. 3 a side elevation. Fig. 4 is a plan, and Fig. 5 a side view of one member of an adjustable gage.
Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A board A which may be of any desired size constitutes the base of the machine. At or near one edge there is secured a strip 13 which acts as a lay, one end of the strip being formed with or having connected thereto a slotted bracket C adapted to carry a roll of paper 1). To the board A, is applied an adjustable strip or lay E, this being attached or secured to the board in such a manner, preferably by studs F on the board A engaging slots G in the lay E and clamped by fly nuts ll so that it can be moved parallel to the feed lay B and secured in the ad justed position. This adjustable lay E carries the other bearings I for carrying the roll of paper D. An adjustable gage is also provided consisting of two pieces J, K, one being in the form of a T square, Figs. 4 and 5, having an extension arm L in addition to the two ordinary arms M and with the leg of the T square of somewhat great thickness or depth all through or on one side. This T square portion of the gage is positioned over the adjustable lay E and the board with the arms M, L, engaging the fixed lay B so that it can be moved along the fixed lay B with the leg always at right angles to the fixed lay B. On this T square portion J of the gage is positioned an L piece K, see Figs. 1 and 2, the legs of the two pieces J, K, being coincident with each other and connected together by a pin N in the T square portion J riding in a slot P of the L portion and held together by a, thumb screw Q. The arm R of the L portion is of somewhat great depth and rides along one side of the leg of the T square portion J suitable means such as a llange S being provided to insure the L portion K moving in line with the leg of the T square portion J. At the side of the board opposite to that carrying the slotted brackets C, I, is secured a strip T under and against which the paper 1) can be moved for the purpose of tearing it oil.
In use a roll of paper I) is put into the slotted brackets C, I, and is passed over the board A with its end under the cutting strip T and one of its edges placed in touch with the fixed lay B. The adjustable lay E is then in position for its edge to be just in contact with the other edge of the paper D. The gage J is then positioned on the board with its arms M, L, engaging the fixed lay B and the L portion K is positioned to suit the place or line on the paper on which the printing is to be effected. The type preferable for use is that of the india-rubbcr kind mounted on a block of wood having its bottom sides at right angles to each other and with the handle portion Formed from a stem extending :l'rom one side (it the block to the other, and curved inward and outward toward the base on the other side so as to give a good hold for the lingers and a base for the fingers to press the type on the papers, although ordinary stencils may be used. The gage J, K, is then moved along until it just covers the edge of the printed letter and the type is again printed when the above operation is repeated until all the desired printing is ell'ecled which when done the strip I) can be passed along sul'liciently to be torn oil by the cutting strip T.
The fixed lay B may be marked with a scale as shown in Fig. 1, which can be employed where spacing between words. letters or devices other than the ordinary spacing between letters are required, say half an inch between two words in which case the gage is moved half an inch, which will be indicated in the scale or can be fairly accurately" guessed therefrom.
It is obvious that printing can be effected on a sheet of paper or card board instead of a roll of paper by simply placing a sheet between the fixed and adiustable lays, and that stencils instead of type may be used.
U is a strip aifixed to the lay E and riding under a strip V secured to the fixed lay to assist in securing a parallel move ment or" the adjustable lay E to the fixed la B.
What I claim as my invent-ion and desireto secure by Letters Patent is An apparatus for use in printing or stenciling consisting of a board or base having a fixed lay at one edge and a lay capable of being moved over and clamped to the board or base parallel to the fixed lay, bearings on each lay for carrying a roll of paper, a strip affixed at right angles to the fixed lay to enable the paper to be cut a gage for determining the position and line of the printing such gage consisting of two members one being in the form of a T square and provided with two arms for embracing the fixed lay to keep the leg of the T square atright angles to the fixed lay, the other member being formed as an L piece, adjustable and ailixable to the other member to determine the printing line of the type, the two members conjointly forming a register for each piece of type, substantially as and for the purpose described and as illustrated on the annexed drawings.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing V witnesses.
