1 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that we, Anotrn Myers and LEOPOLD lVlYERS, trading together as M. 0 g
= Mon; Fig. 2 is a sideelevatnm of the same lllr'nns & SON, of Charlotte Street Steel Pen Works, Charlotte street, Birmingham, England, subjects of His Majesty the King of Great Britain and Ireland, residing at The Oaks, Richmond Hill Road, Edgbaston, .I-5irmingham, England, and 8 Chad road, Birmingham, England, respectively, have invented new and useful Improvements in Pen or Pencil Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to clips for holding in a waistcoat pocket fountain or stylographic pens, and pencils.
The object of our invention is to construct a substantially circular socket like clip which will be so expansiblc and contractile that it will securely grip and hold the said articles of a very wide range of diameters, said clip being constructed to grip on to the front of a waistcoat pocket so as to be retained therein and permit of the fountain pen, pencil or the like being inserted in the clip in the pocket or removed therefrom without removing the clip from the pocket, said means for gripping the clip on to the pocket being so constructed and arranged however that the clip can whenrequired be readily removed from the front of the pocket and as readily replaced. A clip for the said purposes constructed according to this invention is formed of a sheet metal blank shaped and bent so as to form two resilient clipping arms which together constitute a divided eXpansible and contractile socket furnished with downwardly projecting gripping tongues closed toward each other at their lower ends so that the said tongues and arms will grip and hold fountain pens, pencils and the like of a large range of diameters, the said expansible and contractile socket like part being formed with a back plate having a downwardly projecting gripping tongue for gripping and holding the clip on the front of a waistcoat or like pocket with the clip part inside the same. Thus by the divided socket clip part being furnished with the spring gripping tongues as aforesaid, in addition to its being divided so as to expand and contract, the range of diameters of articles which can be held by the socket is very wide.
Our invention is illustrated by the accompanying drawings of which Figure 1 1s a back elevation of our inven- Fig. 3 is a plan of the same; Fig. l is a side elevation of the same pocket clip as shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, represented in use in the pocket and holding a pencil of medium diameter, portions of the pocket being also shown in sectional elevation; Fig. 5 is a w front view of the same pocket clip as shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4, but represented as holding a fountain pen, pencil or the llkOOl large diameter, and Fig. 6 is a plan of the sheet steel or other suitable sheet metal blank from which the pocket cllp represented in the preceding figures has been 7 formed.
a is the downwardly projecting back plate bent over at the top and made with a downwardly pro ect1ng gripping tongue 0 for gripping the clip on to the front 0 of the pocket and these are made together in one piece from a sheet steel or other suitable sheet metal blank (see Fig. 6) with two side projecting arms or parts marked respectively (Z, c, which are made of such a length that when they are each bent round into a semi-circular form as in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, they meet or almost meet at f (Fig. 3) opposite to the center of the back plate part a and thus form the divided socket for the reception of the fountain pen, pencil or the like. Each of these arms (Z, c has projecting from its lower edge several spring gripping tongucs 9, say for instance four in number on each arm cl, e as shown on our drawings and these spring gripping tongues 5 are so bent that when the arms (Z, c are bent into an arc shape to form the socket part as aforesaid, these tongues g which taper toward their lower ends approach and touch or almost touch one another at their lower ends so as to grip and hold a pencil, fountain pen or the like it of comparatively small diameter as aforesaid, that is of very much smaller diameter than the upper part of the socket formed on the arms (Z, c. When in use these spring tongues 9 project downwardly into the pocket 0 as in Fig 4. The extreme lower ends 2' of the tongues g are bent outwardly slightly so as to present a rounded. surface to the pencil, fountain pen or the like it which they hold. The side arms (Z a forming the upper part of the clip are preferably strengthened and stiffened by each having an outwardly projecting circuinferential rib such as j formed on them. The lower end 70 of the gripping tongue Z) is toothed and is bent into a hook form (see Figs. 2 and 4) so as to be outside the pocket and grip the front of the same against the back plate a which is inside the same, said hook part 70 effectually preventing the clip from being pulled out of the pocket when the fountain pen, pencil or the like is being removed from the clip. The complete clip, however, can readily be removed from the-pocket when desired by inserting the finger nail or thumb nail under the lower end is of the sp ing tongue 6 and springing it away from the pocket 0.
When a pencil, fountain pen or the like of larger diameter than the circle formed by the arms (Z, 6 when closed as in Fig. 3, is inserted to be held by them, these arms (Z 6 and their gripping tongues g are expanded as in Fig. 5 so as to grip the pencil h of large diameter as shown, the clip being formed of thin sheet steel and hardened and tempered to such a nicety that the are shaped arms (Z, c
and their gripping tongues 9 can be expanded as aforesaid as shown in Fig. 5 and they will afterward contract to their original size as in Figs. 1, 2, 8. Thus by the spring clip part formed by the arms (Z 6 be ing furnished with the spring clip tongues g as above described and illustrated in addition to the clip being divided at f, so as to plate projecting expand and contract as aforesaid, the range of diameters of articles which can be held by the clip is very wide as'very small articles are held by the extreme ends of the tongues g, larger articles are held higher up 40 the tongues g and articles of the same diameter as the socket formed by the two arms (Z, 0 are gripped by the arms cl 6 as well as bv the tongues g as are also articles of larger diameter than the interior of the arms (Z, c.
What we claim as our invention and de sire to secure by Letters Patent is A pen or pencil holder formed from a single sheet of metal blank free from rivets and having a plurality of spring gripping tongues each tapering inwardly to its lower extremity, a horizontally ribbed circular socket disposed abovesaid tongues, a back downwardly from the ribbed circular socket and bent at its free end, a gripping member bent from the upper edge of the ribbed circular socket dis-- posed parallel to the back plate and having its lower end pointed and bent inwardly and upwardly toward said back plate, all as herein set forth. a
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
