FRIEDRICK C. LUETHI, 0F STQUGHTON, WISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO ARTHUR '1. G. OLSEN, OF $TOUGHTON, WISCONSIN.
INKWELL.
Application filed November 24, 1922.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, Fnnonron C. LU'n'rr-rr, a citizen of the United States, residing at tltoughton, in the county of Dane and State ot Wisconsin. have invented new and useful lnkwells. of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to ink wells, and more particularly to therefor.
The object of the invention is to provide a device of this character so constructed as to supply ink from a container to a plurality of dip cups located adjacent the container so that several persons may use the same ink well simultaneously without conflict.
Another object is to provide the various dip cups with distinguishing means so that they may be readily located and which will also protect the edges of the cups as well as the pen holder.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spir t of the invention.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1 represents a top plan view of an ink well embodying this invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken on line 2- 2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a similar view showing a slightly different form of the invention, and
Fig. e is a detail transverse section of a pen rack used in connection with the well.
in the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 1 an d 2, a base 1 is shown which may be composed of any suitable material preferably of glass and which has an ink reservoir 2 corn trally mounted thereon. said reservoir being here shown provided with an aperture in its bottom closed by a cork 4:.
The base 1 is preferably provided on its lower face with rubber feet which spaces it above the supporting surface and prevents scratching of the surface by the well.
A plurality of dip cups 6 are arranged on the base 1, any desired number being employed, four being here shown and which Serial No. 603,020.
communicate with the central reservoir by conduits 7, the bottom of these cups being arranged in a plane below the bottom of the reservoir so that the cups will retain ink after the reservoir has become empty.
Arranged around the upper edge of each dip cup 6 isahard rubber ring8mortised to fit within the cup as shown clearly in Fig. 2 and which may be of any desired color, black preferably. This hard rubber ring is set slanting as shown in Fig. 2, and the color thereof being difierent from that of the base, renders it easy for the writer to locate the cup.
The base 10 is preferably provided at each corner with a plurality of upstanding nibs 9, four being here shown and which are designed to form pen racks.
In the form shown in Fig. 3, the dip cup 6 is located some distance from the reservoir 2 and is connected with it by a bridged conduit or passage 10, over which a removable cover 11 is mounted. By locating the cup 6' at a point remote from the reservoir, it may be disposed nearer the writer and consequently be more convenient.
The base 1 is provided with a groove 12 in its bottom near one side thereof with which a hook 13 carried by a pen rack or tray 14 is designed to be detachably engaged. This hook interlockingly engages with the base as shown in Fig. 8 and when the tray is connected, holds it so as to present a unitary structure. It is of course understood that the tray 14: may be of any suitable or desired configuration, being either trough-shaped as shown in Fig. 3 or in the form of a rack 15' as shown in Fig. 4:.
I olaim:
An ink well base having an ink reservoir mounted thereon and provided in its lower face with a recess. and a tray having an upstanding hook for interlocking engagement with said recess to hold the tray inoperative position.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own. I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
