To all whom it mar concern:

Be it known that I, IZYGMUNT" GADOMSKI, ZIOIUZQH of Poland, and resident-of'Jersey City,in=the county of Hudson and State-of New Jersey, have i-nvented'c'ertainnew and useful Rin Holders-for *Pencils, of which i 5 and this pin passes also through the lower the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements "in pencil-holders,-and more ,particul'arlyf to a novel ring-holder for 'lPllGllS, and" the "like,

and it'is 'thefpri'ncipal objectofthe invention to provide a holder adapted to'se'c'urely hold aipencilinlplace 'during its use and toallow a holding of the pencil on the finger when not in use without interference wit-h the other occupations of the fingers of a hand, thus providing a device which does away with the necessity of searching for a mislaid pencil or the like consuming considerable time.

Another object of the invention is the provision of a ring-holder for pencils allowing a convenient adjustmentjof the ring to any size of finger.

A further object of the invention is the provision of a ring-holder for pencils with which a clip is combined for holding pencil and device attached to the pocket of a person, if this is desired.

, A still further object of the invention is the provision ofa holder for pencils having substantially the form of an adjustable ring and one which allows a folding of this ring against the pencil when carried on the person.

These and other objects and advantages of my invention will become more fully apparent as the description thereof proceeds, and will then be specifically defined in the appended claims.

In the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure:

Fig. 1 is a side elevationof my improved ring-holder for pencils and the like on an enlarged scale and attached to the finger of a hand in writing position of the pencil.

Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the ringholder.

Fig. 3 is an end view thereof. Fig. 4 is a top plan view of my improved pencil-holder. o

The holder comprises a split sleeve or socket having upper parallel flanges 11 and 12, and a lower, rearwardly extending bot-tom element 13 trough-shaped in crosssection and presenting a support for a pencil 14 or the like. The extreme outer end of theelement 3 is folded upon itself to form aclipl5 with an outer enlarged and rounded end-16. 2'

Between the flanges 11 and 12 a pin 17 is transversely passed through both flanges,

flanges: 18, 19of a ring generally indicated "20, and of a construction 'more fully to :be

described hereafter. In this manner the -fla'1iges 18, 19 are pivotally held between flanges lland 12 they'have lower rounded lips 21 :and 'rearwardly extending lips 22.

Lips 21 and 22 have comparatively sharp lower edges adaptedto engage and cut somewhat into the material of the pencil in either posit-ion of the holding-device, to hold the pencilto the device when it is used and to hold it in place thereon when not in use.

The ring member consists of two bands 23, 24, the outer one, 24 being provided with a segmentally formed slot 25, and a plurality of holes 26, while the inner one, .23, has its free end angularly bent and passed through the slot 25 and formed into a grip bottom element 13 and socket 10, and if now the ring is attached to a finger and moved forward, the sharpened lower edges of its flanges 21 will engage and sink into the wood of the pencil and hold the parts in position. The ring is then adjusted to the size of the finger by the proper operation of handle 27 to depress the inner member and move it with its prongs or teeth 29 into engagement with the openings 26. If the device is not in use, the ring 20 is swung about the pivot point 17 into the position indicated in broken lines in Figure 2, in which the lips 22 will engage the wood of the pencil and hold the same in position in the holder. The clip 15, 16 is used in the ordinary well known 7 and of its minor details without departure from the scope and spirit thereof as defined by the appended claims.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let ters Patent is:

1. Ring holder for pencils comprising a socket split to form upstanding flanges, a trough-shaped rearwardly extending body element formed with said socket, and a ringshaped holder for a pencil pivotally secured between the upstanding flanges of said socket.

2. Ring holder for pencils comprising a split socket, upstanding flanges on said socket, a trough shaped, rearwardly extending member formed with said socket for supporting a pencil, an adjustable finger ring pivotally attached between said upstanding flanges, and means on said ring for engaging the pencil in either position of the ring With respect to the pencil.

3. Ring holder for pencils comprising a socket, flanges connected therewith, a transverse pivot pin, a ring composed of an outer and an inner member having flanges secured by said pivot pin between saidflanges, means for holding the outer and the inner members of said ring in their adjusted relative positions, and a pair 01" lips on said flanges adapted to engage the pencil in either position of the rings to the pencil.

4. In a ring holder for pencils of the class described comprising a' pencil rest and clip, a ring composed of two parts, an outer part having a segmental slot, and a plurality of perforations therein, and an inner part having its end extended through the segmental slot and fingers formed at the edges of said inner part to grip over the outer ring, and teeth formed with said fingers to engage the holes in said outer part, and pencil engaging lips on said ring parts.

7 igned at New York in the county of New York and State of New York, this 21st day of March, A. D. 1925.

ZYGMUNT GADOMSKI.
