EVAN L. REED, OF STERLING, ILLINOIS.
PAPER-ROLL SUPPORT.
Specification of Letters Yatent.
Patented June 1, 1920.
Application filed February 24, 1919. Serial No. 278,633.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EVAN L. REED, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sterling, in the county of VVhiteside and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Paper-Roll Supports, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has reference to paper roll supports, such as are in common use in stores and other places for holding rolls of wrapping paper. These devices are usually provided with a cross-bar, or blade, which is held against the roll of paper under tension, and by means of which a strip of paper of desired length may be torn from the roll. This tension is usually provided by spring action, and when one roll has been used up, and it is desired to place a new roll in place, such spring action tends to hold the blade in the way of the roll, so that it is a diflicult matter for one person to perform the operation. The chief purpose of the present invention is to overcome this difficulty by means for automatically engaging the blade mechanism, so as to hold the same out of the way, but in such a manner that it can be instantly released, and returned to an operative position.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a vertical section of support for paper rolls, with my invention embodied therein. Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the arm supporting clip, with the arm in an engaged or inoperative position.
1 represents a frame of common construction, provided with an upper cross-piece 2, to the lower face of which is secured a clip, comprising a plate 3, and side plates 4 integral therewith. Mounted in said clip is a pin 5, having at each end a head 6, and pivoted at one of its ends on said pin is an arm 7, being one of a pair such as are usually employed for supporting a blade 8. EXerting a downward pressure upon the arm 7 is a loop 9, ending in spring coils 1O on'the pin 5, which coils are projected into ends 11, having a bearing against the lower face of the bar 2. By this means the blade 8 is held normally in contact with the paper roll 12, supported on the roller 13, mounted in the frame.
Theinnerfaces of the plates 4 are provided with bosses 14, formed by forcing a small portion of the metal inwardly, and the arm 7, upon being elevated to a suflicient height, will slip past such bosses and be held thereby against return movement. The passage of said arm between the bosses is facilitated by a slight spread of the plates 4, which possess sufiicient resiliency to permit the same. The engagement of such bosses with the lower face of the bar 7 is of greater force than the tendency of the spring 9 and force of gravity of the blade 8 to move such bar downwardly. When it is in elevated position, as shown-in broken lines in Fig. 1, it will be seen that the blade and arm are out of the way, so as not to interfere with the operation of placing the paper roll in position. After the roll has been renewed the bar can be readily caused to again pass the bosses 14 in a downward direction, by merely pressing upon the blade 8.
If desired, both of the supporting arms for the blade 8 can be equipped and controlled in the manner above described, but if such means is provided for one of such arms it is deemed to be suflicient.
The preferred embodiment of my invention has been shown and set forth. herein, and it is realized that changes can be made in the form and arrangement thereof without departing from the spirit of the invention.
lVhat I claim and desire to secure, is:
A device of the class described, comprising a frame provided with a cross-bar; a clip secured to the lower face of said crossbar and provided with resilient side-plates; an arm pivoted in said clip; a spring in engagement with said arm and tending to force the same downwardly; and bosses projecting inwardly from said side-plates, adapted to engage said arm and hold the same releasably in elevated position.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
EVAN L. REED.
