J. LARSEN ET AL PENCIL ATTACHMENT Filed Aug. 16, 1924 Patented Sept. 22, 1925.
UNITED STATES PATENT WITC JOHN LARSEN an]; HJALMAR ease, on NEW Yoax, is. Y.
ToaZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN LARSEN and HJALMAR BERG, citizens and subjects of the King of Norway, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Pencil-Attachment,"of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to attachments for pencils and the like and more particularly to means for attachingdevices of this character upon laths or the like.
An important object of the invention is to provide means for securing a pencil or other marking devices upon astrip of wood or similar article to enable carpenters to mark picture molding and similar markings which cannot be reached by hand.
A further object of the invention is the provision of an attachment which can be used for pencils, pens, brushes, or any type of marking devices.
A still furtherobject of the invention is to provide an attachment of this character adapted to enable the attachment of a pencil or the like upon an extension strip which may be securely positioned upon the strip and may be readily removed.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same:
Figure 1 is a plan view of our improved device showing the pencil positioned therein, Figure 2 is a side elevation showing a pencil in position in the device, and a lath.
ordother strip engaged by the attachment, an
Figure 3 is an end elevation of the same. In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 indicates the body of our device, this body being substantially heart shape and constructed of spring steel. The transverse member of the body 5 is provided with a circular disk 6, while the extremities are circular in form and provide jaw members 7 The inner co-acting faces of the jaws 7 are provided with pointed projections 8 adapted to securely grasp the extremity of the lath 0r retaining strip.
The sides of the body 5 carry a pair of Application filed August 16, 1924.' Serial No.. 732,556. r j
" I PENCIL A'rTncmvnen'1 oppositely disposed arm members9, these arms being preferably rigid in construction and being doubly curved, the rear-extremities being tapered and riveted to the sides of the body 5 While the forward extremities are substantially circular information to form finger clips 10. I Secured to or formed integralWith-the disk 6 formed'on the body 5 is a tubular retainer ,11, the forward extremity being provided witha slit 12 producing-aspri'ng action. The forward extremity of the tubu lar retainer is normally of smaller diameter than the common form of p'enc'il, the' pencil or other marking device being forcedinto the retainer and securelylheldctherein, by
the spring action thereof. It is to beznoted that the side arms 9 maybe formed with the body of the attachment or maybe riveted as shown.
This device-while being particularly constructed to meet the requirements of car p'enters who often find it necessary to employ step ladders for the purpose of marking picture moldings and similar construction, which is usually much higher than themerage man can reach, is also adapted for other purposes. WVith our improved device, the carpenter may mark surfaces of this character by merely securing our attachment to the extremity of a lath or similar strip and readily trace the device upon'the loca-. tion desired. It is also obvious that this device may be employed for many other purposes, such as decorating, painting and the like, permitting the user to manipulate the marking device directly from the floor. Numerous marking implements may be inserted in the attachment such as pencils, pens, paint brushes and the like, thesize of the retainers varying according to the marking-implement to be mountedthereon. The attachment itself may be readily mounted upon a strip of wood or the like by merely clasping the extension arms-9 together causing the engaging jaws to open and receive the strip. The same operation will readily release the lath when found desirable.
Having thus described our invention, we claim:
1. A device of the character described, comprising a loop shaped member constructed of spring material and having a pair of extremities lying adjacent each other, a jaw formed on each extremity of said loop shaped member, a pair of arms carried by said loop shaped member for opening said jaws upon movement of said arms towards each other, and an element retaining member carried by said loop shaped member intermediate the extremities thereof.
'2. A device of the character described,
-' comprising a loop shaped member constructed of spring material and having a pair of extremities lying adjacent each other, a jaw formed on each extremity of said loop shape-d member, a pair of arms carried by said loop'shaped member for opening said jaws upon movement of said arms towards each other, and means carried by said loop shaped member and positioned between said arms for supporting a pencil.
3. A device of the character described, comprising a loop shaped member formed of spring material and having a pair of extremities lying adjacent eachlother, jaws member intermediate the extremities thereof for supporting a pencil in a direction opposite to the direction from which said aws extend.
4. An attachment for pencils and the like, comprising a heart shaped body member constructed of spring metal, enlarged circular extremities formed on the body member adapted to form engaging jaws, the inner sides of the awmembers being provided with a plurality of pointed projections, arcuately bent arms secured to the sides of the body member adapted to actuate the jaws signatures.
