To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GERALDDUMARs, a citizen of the United States, and resident of New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Character-Transfer Devices, of which the followa in is a specification.
y invention relates to means for producing, composing, or bulldln up, on a desired surface, characters, symbo s, figures, designs or plans of any kind, by means of a pre determined pattern or outline. It has heretofore been customary to make up si s or designs, by the use of ordinary stenci s and like devices, but stencilled characters or figures have a crude appearance and lacka certain finish that is desirable in work of this class, and my present improvements overcome these drawbacks as well as the shortcomings of other sign or design making devices as heretofore employed, and pro? vides a very flexible means or system by means of which the pattern or outlined guide may be transferred to the desired surface, either in toto, or by sections from well as the method of carrying out the work,.
all as hereinafter. fully set forth and then pointed out in the claims.
I have illustrated types of my inventions in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1, is a front face view of an intaglio pattern used in carrying out my invention, and shows a transparent sheet containing the letters of the alphabet and a set of numerals from 1 to 0.
Fig. 2, is an enlarged view of a portion of theepattern sheet shown in Fig. 1.
. Fig. 3, is a cross-sectional view of the pattern-sheet, the section being taken on a plane indicated by line 33, in Fig. 2, with a crayon or bar of transfer material shown as being applied to the back face of the sheet to coat the outlines of the characters on the back.
Fig. 4, is a similar view tothat of Fig. 3,
with the coating-crayon removed and the coated sheet applied to the surface upon which the figures or design is to be made.
Fig. 5, is a front-face view of the character or design bearing'sheet or surface to which the transfer has been made from the pattern and on which the ultimate work is done.
Fig. 6, is a front-face view of a card bearing an intagliofigure of an animal-pattern and mayv form one of a set of cards having different characters, each card embodying my invention.
Fig. 7, is a front-face view of another intaglio pattern sheet of transparent material and bearing a series of characters usually found in Noahs ark toys. i
Fig. 8, is a front-face view of a pattern sheet of transparent material bearing the figures or characters to be transferred, said figures being formed in suitable transfer.
substance or material on the-back-face of the sheet, so as to read in positive relation from.the front face thereof. I
Beferringto the drawings, in which like numerals of reference designate like parts throughout, 1 indicates a sheet of suitable flexible, transparent material, on the front face of which are formed a set of characters, symbols or figures 2, with continuous indented lines 3, producing intaglio figures or characters with respect to the front face of the sheet and in positive relation on said front-face. The depressions of the characters in outline arecarried through the material of the sheet, so as to provide upon the back-face of the sheet, the same outline in relief 4, which stand up sharply from the surface of the back of thesheet so as .to be sufiiciently prominent to be readily smeared or coated with a transfer substance in the form of a powder, paste or bar, a crayon or bar of such material being-shown at 5,,in Fig. 3. The ordinary colored writing'or marking sticks, such as those found onthe market for lettering or drawing purposes, may be used for this purpose.
In the group of letters of the alphabet and the numerals shown on the pattern in Fig. 1, the characters are all ofthe same style and are alike in size. as to the capital letters and the small ones, and they are arranged in horizontal lines in 'COIISGClltlVG order, so as to enable theuser to quickly select the desired character in building up the words or figures in the process oftranssign which is to be produce ferring the same. Near the base of each character and to one side, is arranged a horizontal guide line or mark 6, which is designed for aligning the characters on a 5 certain line of the work or sign at the time of the transfer of the particular character, to its proper place in the work or sign, such as indicated on the placard 7, in Fig. 5. As a preliminary, the desired si 11, plan or deon a surface, may first be roughly indicated thereon or laid off by pencil-marks in order to get the proper position and arrangement of the matter, when the transferring is being done.
In other words, some. means of guiding the location of the separate characterson the piece of Work, is desirable, and this ,may be done b rough sketches. In order to roduce the work desired, the pattern s eet may be'placed face down and the raised characters on its back he then rubbed over with a stick 5, of transfer material, so that a quantity of such material will adhere to I all the raised lines as indicated at 5, in Fig. 4, or the transfer material may be ap-. plied in any other suitable way, for example a pressing the raised characters down forcib y on an ordinary sheet of carbon paper used for making copies in typewriting. If
so it is desired to make a sign, for example,
like that shown in part in Fig. 5, the pattern-sheet shown in Figs. 1 to 4, is utilized by firstv smearing transfer material 5*, on all of the raised outlines on the back-face of the sheet, in the manner indicated in Fig. 4:, and then the letter N is brought into proper position on the placard 7, and the stylus or pointed instrument 8, is passed along the grooves orintaglio of the letter 0 with suflicient pressure thereon to cause the transfer material to mark the surface of the paper or sign surface 7. Then-the letter E I on the pattern sheet is positioned so as to bring it next to the N and on a line therewith by use of the guide-line 6, and the stylus is then operated to make the impression of the letter E, and this is followed by causing the letter W to be outlined on the sheet 7, as indicated at 5", which shows the double lines of the transfer or copy, which may afterwards be filled in with ink or a crayon. in solid heav lines like the two let ters N and E, or al of the letters may be left un-filled like W, according to, the character of lettering desired. As the patternsheet is bf sucha nature that it can be read- 11y seen through, the proper position of an of the characters on the pattern can be read ily-located on the Signor placard. 7, in formingthe matter thereon, and the material being flexible, the transference ofthe characters is thereby greatly facilitated 'as a more intimate contact is thus obtained between the coated raised outlines and the surface on which they are to be transferred, and
this is an important advantage in my improvements.
In the arrangement shown the letters and numerals on the patternsheet, the indented lines are double and spaced apart some distance, and they are 'so formed that the point of the stylus or instrument 8, may be entered in the trough of the ooved lines and moved continuously throug the same to complete the outlines of the articular letter being transferred, the requisite pressure being exerted on the stylus as it is so moved.' The double line eflect is shown in the work on sheet 7, at. 5", and as before stated the letter may be left inthis form after the lines have been touched up by hand work, or the space between the lines may be filled in as shown in the two letters N and E of the word New, on the sign. A pattern-sheet containing various symbols or a trade-mark, may be used to place cer tain characters on the sign, in addition to ,the lettering and numerals, such a symbol being shown at 15, on the sheet 7, in the form of a star, the outlines of which are in a single line, instead of doubTe, and thisdevice may be filled inor left as shown, ac-
in respect to cording to the effect desired. Thus the outlines of the different characters on the patterm may be made in double lines or single lines, as desired, and the lines may of course be varied as preferred. The attern-sheet may contain various configurations and conventional designs which may be used at will in roducing a si with more or less artistic effect, and t e same may be touched up byhand and elaborated by the operator, in order to embellish the work and make the same more ornate, and in this respect the I pattern has the widest pcssible range, as to the various characters it mayv contain and the style of the same.
InFig. 6, I show a small card 1, containing in intaglio the figure of a lion-9, which in outline is raised on the back of the card inthe same way as described in reference to the letters in Figs. 1 to 4, and the card may form one of a set for the use of children, each ard containing a different animalfigur or kindred subjects. In Fig. 7, I
show a pattern sheet or card l containing in the same way as already described in reference to the previously] described figures, and the characters or symbols are coated with transferrin material and the pattern manipulated in t e same way, so as to get on a sheet of aper or other suitable material, a trans erence of thevarious char acters, which may then be treated in the way! hereln before set forth to finish'the same.
In the modification flexible, transparent sheet 1, has formed on itsrear face the characters 12, here shown as letters of the alphabet, and they are made of transferring material, like for example the carbon compounds used on the carbonsheets used for making copies in type-writing. The carbon composition being easily make a distinct impression on the blank sheet, by placing the pattern-sheet 1, thereon, in position to properly locate the place for the particular letter that is to be formed on the blank, and then rubbing the front face over the area covered by the particular letter and after making up the sign or placard in this way, the letters may be gone over and touched up and added to by hand work, in the manner already described. In the modification, as in the other form, the characters are in positive relation when read from the front-face of the pattern-sheet. In Fig. 8, there is also shown thb blank sheet 7*, on which the sign or design is to be built up or made, and part of the letter b is shown as transferred to or copied on the blank as at 13, by the rubhing process referred to. The pattern-sheet is turned up at one corner in order to show the transferred character on the blank.
As stated herein before, the pattern sheet is made of flexible and pliable material in order to better lend itself totransferring individual characters from the sheet to the blank, and the sheet is transparent in order transferable, it will to enable the user to locate the place for the particular part or character on the; blank. The material of which the sheet is made should also be water-proof, so as to permit of frequent washing inorder to keep 1 it perfectly clean and to remove the smutty transferring substance which is smeared on the ridges of the characters on the back of the sheet for the transferring process. I use celluloid or any suitable cellulose material, or various vegetable or other parchment materials may be employed for the transparent or semi-transparent pattern sheet. In fact any well known material may be used for this purpose so long as it is flexible and will receive and retain the indented outlines of the characters. The outlines of the characters are shown as being-in continuous lines so as to permit of an instrument 8, bein readily and quickly run over the path of t e lines and the material should be such as to withstand the pressure on the instrument which must-be suilicient to make a clear and strong mark in thus transferring the outline to the blank, and of course'the material should be durable enough to stand repeated operations thereon of the relatively sharp instrument referred to, in making the wanted design. 7
In addition to using the invention for ducing certain des1gns and signs on the shown in Fig. 8, the
map of one of the States struct them in spelling words. The pattern design may be a map, or part of a map, each pattern sheet for example may contain a of the United may use the set in up the complete map of the States States, and children buildin and in t is way made very familiar with the relative location of the different States. Of course, various pictures may be formed on the pattern-sheets, or parts of a picture, like the well known sectional picture-puzzle and the various parts assembled step by step, in composing the complete picture.
From the foregoing description, it will be seen that; my improvements provide a very flexible means or system by means of which lettering, or various symbols or characters, or designs, plans, and maps or pictures of the most varied kind may be readily utilized in making up the desired article in the way of a design, sign, picture I am able to employ patterns of practically any design and artistic nature and arrangement, and in this respect the scheme is practicall unlimited in its range close. it will also e noted that my improvement is peculiar in that it provides a self-contained or unitary pattern device, which is made ready for use by merely coating the raised charactors on the back of the pattern-sheet. lln using the form of pattern-sheet shown in Fig. 8, the transferred or copied character 13, is or course touched up by hand as her inbefore stated in reference to the other form.
I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is 2- v l. A device of the class described, comprising a transparent pattern-sheet having formed thereon a set of characters in positive relation as seen from the front-face of said sheet, and from which set characters are selected at will to make the desired com-. position on the transfer-surface, and the said characters being outlined upon the back-face v of said sheet in suitable transfer material and bein arranged to be placed normall against the surface to which the transfer 18 to be made and to cause the production on said surface of any of said characters by pressing or rubbin upon the front-lace off a character on sai sheet, the transparency or said pattern-sheet serving as means for enabling the operator to correctly position said pattern-sheet on said transfer-surface in order to transfer a character of said sheet to a desired or selected place on said transfer-surface.
2- A device of the class described, com rising a transparent pattern-sheet having donned thereon characters in positive relapattern sheets may be or what not, since Having thus described my invention, what.
