Application filed" October 25, 1821. Serial lto. 510,217.
Be it known that 'L'L Mo'rrn SMITH, a
I "citizen of the United States and a resident new and useful Support and Shock-Absorber plates.
for Typewriters, of which the following is a ,3 of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga and State of New'York, have invented a certain specification. A v
This invention has for ts ob ect' a support and shock absorber device for typewrlter machines, which is particularly simple and, economical in construction, and 111 hly em- 'cient and durable'in. use, and on w ich the typewriter frame can be readily mounted and secured;
'- vThe invention consists in the novel features, and in the combinations and construe:
".tions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is had to the accompanyingdrawings in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all-the views.-
Figure 1 is a side elevation of one of th supports,.the contiguous partsof the typewriter frame being also shown.
Figure 2 is a sectional view-looking downwardly, taken on line 22, Flg. 1. v
These devices are adapted for typewriting machines manufactured by the well known L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter 'Co., or forsimilar machines, having vertical screws in the lower edges of each of the side members cally shoulders'depending from the lower edge of the typewriter frame.
My typewriter support and shock absorber comprises a pair of resilient strips 5 having feet 6 at their front and rear ends whereby the strip 5 is oifset'fromthe desk or table,
front and rear brackets 7, 8 mounted on each strip and having portions 9 overhanging the strip and formed with a slot 10 opemng through the edge of the overhanging portion for receiving one of the feet of the typewriter.
Preferably, the overhanging portions 9 extend in the direction of the strip and the slots 10 0 en through the front end edges of the over anging portions so that the typedesignates the side menu Means'is providedfor locking the frame from movement after it has been placed in juxtaposition on the strips and as here shown, one of-the brackets 77, 8 as the front bracket 7 of each strip is formed with a slot ll'opening into the slot 10 through the .bottomor inner end thereof, the slot 11 bemg of less wldth than the slot 10 but being of suffic ent width to receivethe fastening screws ,4, and a latch 13 is m'ounted on each front bracket and-is movable to close the entrance of the slot 11 and thus hold the typewriter frame from movement owing to the fact that the screw 4 is'held from move- 'm'ent'out of the slot by the latch.
- In the illustrated embodiment of my invention, the'latch 13 is pivoted at 14 on a vertical pivot to the front bracket of each strip 5 and has an arc-shaped slot 15 for receiving the screw 4;, and an arm 16 movable across the entrance of the latter slot, the latch 13 being preferably mounted on the upper side of the overhanging portion 9 of the frontabracket 7 of each strip.
The rear bracket 8 of each strip is also shown as formed with a slot similar to the slot 11 but such slot is present in the rear bracket owing to the fact that both front and rear brackets are made withthe same In operation the typewriter is placed so that it stands on the back member of the frame, thescrews 4 are turned in the screw holes directly behind the front rubber feet of the frame are adjusted so that the rubber 'feet project beyond the heads of the screws.
The shock absorbin device is then placed in positionwith the feet of the typewriter in'th'e slots '10 and the screws 4 in the slots 11. The screws 4 are then adjusted to fit in the slot 11" loosely. The latch is then moved on its pivot to close the slots 11.
The machine with shock absorber attached thereto is then'set on the desk and the shock absorbers secured to the desk by screws pasing through the feet of the shock absorber.
What I claim is:
1. A support and shock absorber device for typewriters having feet and depending pins depending from the loweredgesof the t pewrlterframe near'one of the feet, said divices comprising a bracket formed with an overhanging horizontal portion said" pin on the frame adjacent one of the feet on overhangin portion being formed with openings' or receiving one of the feet ofthe typewriter and the adjacent pin and means coacting with the pin for holding thegframe from dis-H placement from the bracket, substantially as and for the purpose described;
