PEN AND BLOTTER.

.A-p'plieation filed December 19, 1925. Serial No. 76,515.

This invention relates to improvements in fountain pens, the general object of the invention being to provide the pen with a blotter or an eraser, with means for detaching the same from the pen, when desired.

Another object of the invention is to provide means for frictionally holding the blotter in position and to provide a cap for covering the blotter when the same is not 1 being'used.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is an elevation of the improved en. p Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the rear part thereof.

Figure 3 is a section on line 33 of Figure 2. I

Figure 4: is a view similar to Figure 2, but taken at another point, to show a rib.

Figure 5 is a section on line 55 of Figure 4.

Figure 6 is a perspective view of the ejector plate.

Figure 7 is a view showing an eraser used with the pen.

As shown in these views, the rear end of the body 1 of the pen is extended to form a chamber 2 which has a hole 3 in its side wall which communicates with the bottom of the chamber. The interior walls of the chamber also are formed with V-shaped ribs 4: which extend longitudinally of the chamber.

An ejector plate 0 is placed in the chamber and has a stem 6 projecting through the hole 3 so that the plate can be moved in the chamber by means of this stem. The plate is provided with notches 7 v for engaging the ribs. The blotter 8 has its ma or portion of cylindrical shape to fit in the chamber the cap of the pen instead of in the pen and this part will be firmly held in the chamber by means of the ribs 4 biting into the part. The outer end of the blotter is provided with a head 9 for increasing the blotting surface. The outer ends of the ribs are beveled, as at 10, to facilitate the placing of the blotter in the chamber. A cap 11 is threaded to the rear end of the body of the pen for enclosing the blotter.

7 It will thus be seen that by removing the cap and tapping the writing with the head of the blotter, the written matter can be blotted very easily and quickly. When theblotting material is worn, the stem of the ejector plate is pressed upon to cause said plate to press the blotter from the chamber a111d thus enable a new blotter to be put in p ace.

If desired, an eraser can be substituted for the blotter, the rubber eraser being placed in the chamber the sameas the blotter is, as shown at 12. in Figure 7. If desired, the blotter and its ejector can be arranged in itself.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.

I desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the so combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.

lVhat I claim is 1. A pen having a chamber in one end thereof, longitudinally extending ribs on the interior walls of the chamber and a blotter having a portion in the chamber and a portion projecting from the chamber, the

ribs acting to frictionally hold the blotter in the chamber.

2. A pen having a chamber in one end thereof, longitudinally extending. ribs on the interior walls of the chamber and a blotter having a portion in the chamber and a ing the ribs. loo

3. A pen having a recess in its rear end, and an opening in the side Wall of the recess adjacent the bottom thereof, an ejector plate in the recess having a stem projecting through the opening, longitudinally extending ribs on the interior walls of the recess, a blotter having a portion inserted in the recess and held therein by the ribs, the blotter having an enlarged head thereon and a cap threaded to the end of the pen and en- 19 closing the head of the blotter.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.

EDWARD W. GUZIK.
