IMPROVEMENT IN INKSTANDS.
key or otherwise, the object being either toprevent the shifting ofthe ink-holder from the lock, excepting by the person holding the key, or simply to protect it from being incautiously upset, While guarding the ink from dust and dirt when not in use.
On the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 Sheet I, is a plan of an iukstand, embodying my invention, asrit appears when ready for use. Fig. 2, Sheet I, is a plan view of saine when not in use. Fig. 3, Sheet I, is a section of same, showing general arrangement of lock and ink-holder. Fig. 4., Sheet II, is a plan of 1ock-plate, drawn to an enlarged scale 5 and Fig. 5, Sheet II, is an inverted plan of same.
A is the ink-holder or reservoir; B, its cup 5 C, a slot or lu g upon the reservoir for receiving the lock-bolt; D, lock-plate; E, opening by which ink flows from reservoir A to supply cup B whenever the supply'in the cup is so much reduced as to permit air to enter the reservoir; F, ange on ink-holder A, forming its bearing on lock-plate D; G, opening in lock-plate to receive ink-holder A; H, lockbolt; h, its spring; I, slide traversing in groove K to open and close orifice g, through which the pen is dipped into the ink; L, spring for keeping slide I in its place; M, lug or seat for slide I when closing dipping-oriiice g. The ink holder or reservoir A, being held by the bolt H, can only be removed from the lock for .refilling by pushing back this bolt by the aid from the lock and hold it so that the openingV E is uppermost 5 then pour in the ink by the cup B, using a funnel or a measure with suitably-curved spout or other suitable contrivance; or, with care, the ink may be at once supplied from an ordinary ink-bottle. When filled pass the ink-holder through the opening G of the lock-plate D until the iiange F rests on the lock-plate and the bolt H passes between the lug (l and the iiange F, where it will be held by the spring h.
When the inkstand is in.use the cup B will be in the position shown, Fig. l; but when not in use it may be turned to the position shown, Fig. 2 5 and in making this journey the cup will carry with it the slide I, which, coming beneath the dipping-orifice g, will completely guard the cup and lock from inroad of dust or dirt. The facility of thus shutting off access to the ink will` be found very convenient where inks of several kinds are held on one stand.
It will be obvious that a staple or other equivalent device may be substituted in lieu ofthe lug or slot C for receiving the lock-bolt; that the shape of the ink holder or reservoir may vary at pleasure, or to meet any particular requirement; that the ink-holder may be made of porcelain, glass, enameled metal, of metal lined with a glass or porcelain cup, of glass with a metal cap, as shown on the accompanyin g drawing, or of any material which I may iind suitable; that the lock may be more or less complicated, and be screwed or otherwise fixed to any kind of desk or upon any desired base; that the lock might be placed at one side, at top or bottom of the inkstand, and the bolt pass through any kind lof staple adapted to any part of the ink-holder, which might be open at the top 5 but I give preference to a self-feeding inkstand, as shown on the accompanying sheets of drawing; and
I claim as my invention- 1. The ink-holder, in combination with plate D provided with the locking-device, substantially asfdescribed.
2. The ink-holder, in combination with plate D provided with the closing device, constructed and operating substantially as described.
