Description
LOUIS H. nrnrz'nn, or HARTFORD, connncrrcur.
LINOIYPE-CLAMP.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that '1, Lotus H. DIETZEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hartford, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Linotype- (Jlamps, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has relation to a linotype clamp, and the natureand objects thereof will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art to which it appertains in the light of the following explanation of the accompanying drawings, illustrating what 1 now believe to be the preferred embodiment, or
mechanical expression, of my invention from among other forms and arrangements within the spirit thereof, or the scope of the appended claim.
However, an object of the invention is to provide an adjustable clamp, utilizable in pairs to secure together a numberof typeslugs made by the linotype machine, in proper order before the slugs or type bars are inserted in a form, or after they have been removed therefrom preparatory topreserving them. for future use.
Another object of the invention is to provide linotype clamps having the above named characteristics, and in addition there to embodying means whereby the clamps may be adjusted within limits to embrace a form of linotype slugs of various heights.
In addition to the foregoing my invention comprehends improvements in the details of construction and arrangement of the co-related parts, to be hereinafter more fully described and particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings in which similar and corresponding parts are designated by the same characters of reference throughout the several views in which they appear:
Figure 1, is a diagrammatic view" in plan, of a form of linotype slugs, illustrating the manner in which my invention is applied thereto.
Fig. 2, is a view in side elevation of one of the clamps.
Fig, 3, is a view thereof in top plan.
Specification of Letters Patent. Pgmygntigfl May 21, 191%. Application filed December 22, 1916. Serial No. 138,472. i
liig. 4 is a view thereof in bottom plan, an i 1 i Fig. 5, is a transverse section taken on the line 55 of Fig. 2. j 1
According to the prevailing practice, when a form of linotypeslugs are assembled preparatory to inserting them in the form, or after they are removed therefrom, and preparatory tostoring them'away for future use, they are wrapped in cord or the like to preserve them in proper order. The use of cord has several disadvantages, such as waste, delay incurred in tying up each form, etc., and it is my object to obviate these disadvantages by providing linotype clamps constructed in the manner to be described.
With reference to the drawings, my inventioncomprises a clamp formed of duplicate relatively movable jaws, constructed preferably of sheet metal, each jaw comprising a spanning member 1 and a jaw member 2 bent at right angles to the spanning member. The spanning member is provided at op-- posite longitudinal sides with integrally formed extensions 3 which are folded back over the rear face of the spanning member and toward each other to form a guide way for a longitudinally extending connecting strip 41 which extends in the guide ways of each spanning member, thereby providing for relative movement in alinement of the clamping members toward and away from each other. The jaw members 2 are thus disposed in opposed relation and in parallelism to-engage opposite ends of a form of linotype slugs.
In practice, a form of linotype slugs indicated at 8 in Fig. 1 are set up in proper order, and a clamp constructed after the manner set forth in .the foregoing paragraphs, is applied to the longitudinal edges of the form, with the jaw members 2 directed toward each other. The tension of amnr trio.
the spring 6 of each clamp retains the jaw members in engagement With the type slugs thereby retaining the slugs in proper form and against relative displacement. It Will be obvious, that While forms are set up of various heights, and including different numbers of slugs, the clamp will automatically adjust itself to the height of the form by reason of the relative movement of the elamplng members as herein described.-
Should the form be of extraordinary height,
a longer strip 4 may be substituted for the one ordinarily "employed, and a longer spring 6 or a number 'of-said springs connected together may be utilized to urge the clamping members toward eachother and to bind them securely to the form.
WVhil'e I have illustrated my invention With some degree of particularity, I realize that in practice various'alterations thereover may be made, and I therefore reserve the rigl'it and privilege 'of changing the form of the detailsof construction or otherwise altering the arrangement of the co-related parts, Without departingfrom'the spirit of the invention, or the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A linotype slug holder, comprising a connecting strip having one side beveled toward its longitudinal edges, a pair of relatively movable members in the form of plates hav- LOUIS II. DIETZEL.
