RIBBON-BEVIYER.
Specification of Letters latent. Application filed January 27, 1918. Serial No. 744,572.
Patented Sept. 29, 1914.,
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JosnrH HERMAN Ax- LINE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Columbus, in the county of Franklin preferable form of my invention is and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Ribbon-Reviver, of which-the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the method of and apparatus for treating a printing ribbon such as are used upon typewriters for the reviving thereof.
An object of the present invention is to provide means whereby typewriter ribbons which have become aged and useless, may
be revived and the useful life thereof will thereby be increased.
A further object is to provide means .whereby a typewriter ribbon or similar structure may be treated without removing the same from the machine to which it is attached. I
A further object is to provide a structure whereby a ribbon having a plurality of colorings thereon may be treated without liability to smear or intermix the colorings of the ribbon.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, can be' made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings accompanyin this specification and forming a part t ereof the illustrated, in which Figure 1 is a side view of my improved ribbon reviving device. Fig. 2 is an end view thereof. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross sectional view taken on the line A-A of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4 is a vertical cross sectional view taken on the line BB of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawings in which similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, 1 is a si e plate to which is rigidly secured the cylindrical reservoir 2 and rotatably mounted upon the said side plate and directly above the cylindrical reservoir is the drum 3. The side plate 1 further serves as a support to which are secured the outstandin other I'1bb0l1 5 which is desired to be so treated or revived passes beneath one of the guide bars, upward and around the rotata guide bars 4.' The typewriter or I ble drum 3, down and beneath the other eo guide bar, and then to the ribbon'carriers which are secured to the typewriter. Thus it will be apparent that the ribbon ma. be slipped over the various guide bars wit out detaching the same from after the ribbon has been trated in Fig. 3, it is merely necessary to wind theribbon from one of the carriers upon the typewriter to the other which will rotate the drum and obtain thereby the desired effect.
The side plate 1 is provided with an aperture 6 therein which is preferably near the top thereof. A shaft or axle 7 with a head 8 at one end thereof is provided with the installed as illusthe machine and as tend through the side plate aperture 6 and be clam ed rigidly therein by means of the nuts 10. To the smaller'portion 11 of the said shaft is rigidly secured a holding handle 12 and it is by means of this handle 12 that the entire device is adapted to be gripped and manipulated. The drum 3 is provided with a cylindrical bore 13 extending axially therethrough and is of a size such that the drum 3 will fit withover and rotate nicely upon the shaft 7. The said drum is heldagainst longitudinal movement thereon by means of the shaft head 8 and one of the retaining nuts 10.
The cylindrical reservoir 2 wh :h is rigidly secured to the side late 1 and directly beneath the rotatable rum 3 i; provided with a slot 14 extending along the upper surface thereof and into which slot 1s placed a suitable wick 15. In order that the reservoir may be easily and quickly filled with a liquid solution, an aperture 16 is provided in the side plate 1 and an aperture 17 is provided in the side wall of the reservoir and is alined and communicating with the aperture 16, by means of which the reservoir may be filled with the desired solution.
The apparatus herein described ma used for the inkin of a ribbon and if it be desired, an ink SOfiltlOIl may be introduced within the reservoir 2 and will immediately saturate the wick 15 which extends therein. The wick 15 as more clearly illustrated in Fig. 3 is in constant contact with the rotatable drum 3 and is adapted to apply to the surface thereof the liquid with which the reservoir 2 is filled.
The handle 12 is firmly grasped and a typewriter ribbon or similar printing structure is passed over the free ends of the guide bars and drum and is positioned thereon as more clearly illustrated in Fig. 3. By drawing the ribbon over the drum 3 the latter is rotated and by reason of the wick 15 the surface or periphery of the drum 3 is coated or has applied thereto the liquid or ink which has been previously injected within the said reservoir thereby applying a continuous or unvaryiug amount of ink to each and every portion of the ribbon which passes thereover and thereby efi'ectually reinking the ribbon and adapting the latter to be used for a considerable length of time. However the fact has been observed that a typewriter ribbon becomes useless not through a lack of ink or ink pigments thereon, but rather through a drying up of the colorin or ink pigments and in order that the. ribbon may be returned to a condition of usefulness, the liquid solution is introduced into the reservoir 2 which is adapted to soften and thereby revive the coloring or ink pigments with which the ribbon has been originally saturated. By this means a ribbon with two or three difierent colors of ink thereon may be successfully treated without any liability of the colorings being intermixed one with the other or blurred in any way. The softening or dissolving solution with which'the reservoir. is filled is applied uniformly to the ribbons and effectually revives the same and adds'considerably to the useful life thereof, A solution having these properties is composed of oil paraflin, oil of cloves, oil of cassia, oil amber.
Having thus fully described my /invention what I claim to be new and original with me is A mechanism for treating typewriter rib bons comprising a side plate, a shaft rigidly secured to the upper extremity thereo and extending at both sides thereof, a drum ro tatably secured upon the shaft at one side of said plate, a handle rigidly secured to the remote end of said shaft, a c lindrieal reservoir disposed beneath said rum and rigidly secured to the said 'side plate, said reservoir provided with a longitudinal slot .drum and adapted to insure that the said ribbon will contact with the said drum throughout 'a semi-circumferential portion thereof.
In testimony that I' claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto afiixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
