LOUIS A. LUPIEN, OF BROOKLYN, NEVT YORK, ASSIGNOR TO EDWIN B. STIMPSONi COMPANY, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK BOOKHOLDER Application filed February 13, 1929.
My invention relates to holders or hangers of the class intended to receive and support newspapers, books, pamphlets, etc., and especially designed, in the embodiment here shown, to receive a relatively heavy pamphlet or book such as a telephone directory, and suspend it upon a chain, hook, or similar support.
The general object is to provide a holder of the type referred to, which is of extreme simplicity and may therefore be produced at very low cost, and is at the same time easily and quickly manipulated for connecting it to and disconnecting it from the book, and holds the book securely without damaging it.
The characteristics and advantages of the invention are further sufliciently explained in connect-ion with the following detail description of the accompanying drawing, which shows one preferred embodiment. After considering this example, skilled persons will understand that many variations may be made, and I contemplate the employment of any structures that are properly within the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a holder embodying the invention in one form, applied to a book such as a telephone directory.
, Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the holder, in side elevation, with the book in position.
Fig. 3 is a section at 33, Fig. 1.
, Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the holder,
apart from the book.
The holder preferably consists of only two essential or principal parts, namely a main or inside strip or bar 1 and an outside or clamp rod 2. The inside bar may be a strip of fairly thick and stiff sheet metal, and the outer or clamp rod may be a piece of heavy and stiff, but substantially resilient wire. This rod has at one end a short portion 3 bent at a right angle and terminating in an eye 4, and at the other end a similarly dimensioned and bent portion 5, terminating in a hook 6. At one end the inner strip or bar 1 has a hole 7 in which the eye 3 is inserted and clenched and near the outer (normally upper) end, another hole 8, to receive Serial N0. 339,550.
The method of applying the holder to a book is easily understood from the drawing. The book is opened at its approximate cen- .60 ter; the holder with hook 6 disengaged from the hole 8 and rod 2 in open position, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 4, is applied, with bar 1 inside, and rod 2 outside the back binding, and hook 6 is then snapped into its 05 hole 8, whereupon the thickness of the book or binding retains the hook in engagement; but by reason of the resiliency of rod 2 the hook may easily be disengaged to disconnect the holder, when it is desired to apply it to another, or new,book.
The-appliance therefore consists of only two.main parts (with or without the addition of ring 10) which are of cheap and easily worked materials; attachment and detachment are easily and quickly accomplished; the book is securely held in suspended position ready for convenient use; the rod 2 is of moderate size and lies close to the back-edge binding of the book, and it and other parts of the holder are not in the way of the person consulting the book.
I claim:
1. A book holder comprising a flat bar having an opening at one end and a second opening adjacent the opposite end, a wire member having an eye projecting laterally from one end to engage the first opening in the bar, said wire member having a hook projecting laterally from its other end to detachably engage in said second opening, said bar extending beyond the second opening away from the first opening and having a third opening adjacent the extremity of the extension, and a ring loosely engaged in said third opening. 1
2. A book holder-comprising a flat bar of stiff sheet metal for insertionflatwise between the leaves of a book and having an opening at one end and a second opening adjacent the opposite end, and a Wire member having an eye projecting laterally from one end to engage the first opening in the bar, said Wire member having a hook projecting laterally from its other end to detachably engage in said second opening, said bar extending beyond the second opening away from the first opening and having a third opening adjacent the extremity of the extension, and a ring loosely engaged in said third opening.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature.
LOUIS A. LUPIEN.
