Specificaton of Letters Patents.
Patented Aug. 18, 1914:.
Application filed .Tune 23, 1913. Serial No. 775374.
To all whom it may conccrn Be it known that I, OIIARLES E. PRES-TON,
'a citizen ot the United States, and residin;
at Lake City, in the cmmty ot Galhoun and State of Io'wz, have ivented certain new and useful lmprovements in Combinecl Paper \"Veights and Calendar- Supports, of which the 'Following' is a specificaton.
The invention relates to the general class ot paper weights and has :tor an object to cquip a paper weight. in a novel and practi cal u'ainer with a band or strip containing reading matter such as a calendar, advertising matter or the like.
It is a particular object ot the invention to provide a glass paper weight in which a roll may be mounted having a band or strip of paper or the like wound on the same, and se arrauged, that as the band is unwound, reading matter on the band can be .read through the glass surface of the paper weight; and turther to provide a paper weight ot such Construction that the band or strip on the roll as it is unwound, may pass out through one side of the paper weight and there be torn off it desiredfl It is a still 'further object ofthe invention to provide such a Construction that the band containing the prnted matter can easily be removed and a new band inserted.
These and other features, capabilities and advantages ot' the invention will become apparent from a detailed description of the accon'panying drawings illustrating one specific embodiment of the invention in which- Figure 1 is a top plan view of the improved paper weight. Fig. 2 .is a bottom plan view ot' the same. Fig. 3 is a longi.- tudinal. cross-section of the same on the line 3--3 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4: is a transverse cross-section ot the same on the line 4% of Fig. 3.
l'n the Construction shown, the body A of the paper weight is shown as made of glass and in one piece. Obviously this may also be made in two or more pieces Secured to one another, without departng` from the general scope of the invention. In the preferred form, this weight is of rectangular conformation with rounded edges.
To equip the weight with a calendar, advertising' matter or the like, the novel construction now to be described has been contrived. In the present embodiment, the bottom of the weight at one end thereof, is
provided with a transversely-extending recess B which .in its upward extent, terminates within a Short distance trom the upper surface of the glass Weight, and in its transverse extent, terminates within a short distance from each side ot' the glass weight. From the upper end of the recess B, a long slot G extends outward opening at the other end ot' the body A of the weight, this slot C running parallel to the upper surface of the glass weight. Each ot' the sides ot' the recess B at its upper end, is provided with a short slot D. In the present instance, a roll E having pins l?, F is provided, the pins F, F being adapted to rest in the short Slots D, D. Obvously this roll E may be :tormed in the glass weight When casting the body of the weight, or a curved slot Gr may be provided in each end ot the recess B as shown in Fig. 3, the pins F, F of 'the roll E being passed into supporting position through these curved slots. On the roll E may be wound a flexible band H such as a strip of paper or the like containing the calendar ot the year, advertising matt-er or any other reading matter. The tree end of this band passes out through the slot C. W hen a calendar, for instance, is printed on this band, the part of the band containing the expired months may be pulled out of the slot C through the end of the body of the weight and there be torn oli', if desired. hen the year has expired and a new calendar is required, the roll E may be taken out of the recess B ifthe curved slot G is pro` vided, and a new roll substituted or else a new calendar wound around the old roll, and this old roll returned to supporting position. lt the roll is permanently positioned in the body of the weight, then the new :alendar is wound around the roll E while it is in place in the body of the weight.
While there is herein shown and described but one embodiment of the present invention, it is obvious that various changes and modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the general scope of the inventon.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In a device of the class described, a glass body, a recess at the lower side at one end of said body, a slot beginning; at the upper end of said recess and extending therct'rom parallel to the upper side of the glass body and opening out at. the other end of'sad glass body, a supporting `slo't in each end of said recess, a roll having a pin at. each of ts ends posto'ned in said recess, each of said pns being adapted to rest in one of said supporting Slots, and a band Wound around said 1 011, the free end of which passes out through said slot so that any written matter contaned thereon can be read through the upper side of the glass body; said band being adapted to bepuled 'out of said slot and there tor-n off if desred.
In Wtness Whereof, I hereunto subscribe my name to` ths speccaton n the presence o two wtnesses.
