ATTACHMENT FOR PENI-IOLDERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led March 11, 1913.
Patented Apr. 1t, 19ML.. Serial No. 753,575.
To all 't0/Loot` t may concern Be it known that I, F RANois A. HERMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Slatington, in the county of Lehigh, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Attachments for Penholders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to attachments for pen-holders and has for an object to provide an extremelyT simple and inexpensive attachment that may be applied to all sizes of penholders and will limit insertion of the pen in the ink.
A further object is the provision of a spring wire attachment having a novel clamp portion which may be readily manipulated to adjust the device longitudinally of the pen-holder.
W'ith the above objects in view the inven tion consists of certain novel details of construction and combination of parts hereinafter fully described, and claimed, it being understood that various modifications may be made in the minor details of construction within the scope of the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawing illustrating this invention: Figure 1 is a side elevation of t-he device applied. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the manner of adjusting the device away from the pen. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the manner of adjusting the device toward the pen. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the device.
Referring now to the drawings in which like characters of reference designate similar parts, lO designates an ordinary penholder.
The device comprising the subject-matter of this invention consists of a single length of spring wire bent initially to form a loop l1, the terminals thence being crossed as shown at 12 and bowed outwardly thence inwardly to form a second loop 13, both terminals then being twisted together to form a straight shank 14, one of the terminals then being bent laterally at a rightangle to the shank as shown at 15 and the other terminal being severed or terminating at the base of the shank.
In the application of the device to a penholder, the penholder is thrust through the spring loops 11 and 13 with the shank 14; extending toward the pen point and the terminal 15 projecting at a rightangle to the penholder.
The device is so adjusted on the penholder that the terminal will contact with the mouth of the ink bottle and limit insertion of the pen point in the ink.
The spring loops 11 and 13 by virtue of their resiliency bind snugly upon the pene holder and normally hold the device against displacement. Should it become necessary to move the device back along the penholder away from the pen point the operators lin ger may be placed against the loop 13 and pressure exerted thereupon with a resultant expansion of the loop whereby the device may be easily slid back upon the penholder. To move the device toward the pen point the operators finger is brought to bear upon the loop l1 and the latter forced forwardly with a resultant expansion thereof whereby the device may now 'be easily slid toward the pen point.
From the above description it will be seen that I have provided an extremely simple and inexpensive penholder attachment that may be easily and quickly adjusted to any longitudinal position on the penholder.
that is claimed, is
The combination with a penholder, of an attachment formed of a single length of spring wire initially bent and forming a closed spring loop, the terminals thence being crossed and bowing outwardly then toward each other and forming a second spring loop, the terminals thence being twisted together and forming a straight shank, one of said terminals lbeing then bent at the extremity at a rightangle to said shank, said penholder being inserted through both of said loops with the loops binding snugly upon said penholder, and said shank extending longitudinally of said penholder toward the pen point and said bent terminal extending at a rightangle to said penholder.
In testimony whereof, I atlix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
FRANCIS A. HERMAN.
