STENCIL AND METHOD OF MAKING THE fiAME.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 2, 1914..
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALBERT .l MGGAULEY, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Stencils and Methods of Making the Same, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a stencil and the method of making the same.
The object of the invention is to produce a stencil through which clear legible characters may be marked or painted.
Prior to this invention stencils or patterns for use in painting alphabetical characters, have been made by cutting fragments of the characters from a sheet of material, thereby producing mutilated characters which in many instances are vague, confusing and misleading. This is particularly true of small characters produced by stencil cutting machines, it being necessary to omit a large proportion of the smaller characters so that the paper stencil will have the required strength. Owing to the shape of many alphabetical and numerical characters they cannot be completely represented by slots in a sheetof material and the ordinary stencil characters are therefore essentially fragmentary and incomplete.
My improved stencil is formed by slotting a sheet of material to represent shadows of complete alphabetical or numerical characters, and leaving portions of the material between some of the slots to represent faces of the characters. The material between the slots is an integral part of the stencil sheet so that the stencil has ample strength, and the characters formed by painting though the stencil do not have the mutilated appearance of the ordinary stencil characters. Owing to the relative positions of the slots and the webs of material between the slots, the characters produced are legible and appear to be completely formed.
Figure I is a face View of a stencil cinbodying the features of my invention. Fig. H illustrates the characters formed by marking through the stencil shown in Fig. I.
The sheet of material 1 is provided with slots which are located to represent shadows of alphabetical and numerical characters and the webs of material between some of the slots represent faces of the characters. For example, the character C may be produced by cutting slots 2, 3 and l in the stencil sheet 1, said slots representing shadows of a complete character C. The upper end of the slot 2 is located directly opposite the slot 3 and the web of material 5 between these slots corresponds to the width of the face of the character represented. The lower end of slot 2 is located directly opposite to a portion of the slot a and the web of material 6 between said slots 2 and t. corresponds to the width of the face of the character C. In painting through the slots 2, 3, and 4c, the shadow marks 2, 3 and r are produced, as shown in Fig. 11. The marks are spaced by the stencil webs 5 and 6 so that the spaces 5 and 6, (Fig. II), correspond to the width of the face of the character C. It will be noted that the shadow marks 2, and t conform to the contour of the character G and that the marks 3' and L are extended to points above and below the mark 2, so as to give the character a well defined contour, and further that the width of the face of the character is definitely represented by the spaces 5 and 6'. Therefore, the stenciled character apparently has all of the essential features of a completely formed character, namely, a definite contour and adefinite width. It is true that all of the lines of the complete character are not marked through the stencil; however, 011 account of the novel arrangement of the slots and webs, the character does not appear to be mutilated by the webs which are essential to a stencil structure.
I do not deem it necessary to describe the method of forming all of the alphabetical and numerical characters. The drawings clearly show that the stencil sheet may be slotted to represent shadows of various different characters and that the small webs of material between the slots are integrally connected to the stencil sheet to provide the required strength and at the same time represent the widths of the faces of the characters.
To more clearly distinguish the invention from the prior art, I will term the stencil slots shadow slots, because they conform to the configuration of shadows cast by the Copies of this patent may be obtained for terial provided with shadow slots conforming substantially to the contour of shadows of an alphabetical character and face webs separating said shadow slots so that the shadow slots apparent-1y lie on opposite sides of the face of said character, the said face webs being formed so as to represent the width of the face of said character.
