mn'aon FOR PRODUCING FENS Filed Feb. 26, 1952 I Patented Aug. 14, 1934 UNITED STATES METHOD FOR PRODUCING PENS Lloyd S. Henwood, Merchantville, N. J., assignor to 0. Howard Hunt Pen Company, Wilmington,
Del., a corporation of k New Jersey Application February 26, 1932, Serial No. 595,287
2 Claims.
This invention relates to an improvement in method for producing pens.
Heretofore it has been known to provide brass pens for use in connection with a reservoir and 5 feeder, as in fountain pens, the object being to enable the production of fountain pens at a cost such that they may be sold at a low price as compared with the more expensive fountain pens equipped with, for example, an iridium pointed gold pen. Brass pens as heretofore provided have however, not proved satisfactory in such connection, since the ink supplied to the pen from the feeder will not readily flow to the writing point of the pen and hence the pen will not write or at the least writing is difficult.
Now in accordance with this'invention a methodis provided for the production of pens for various uses, including a steel penso constructed that when associated with a feeder and reservoir,
as in a fountain pen, ink will freely flow to the writing point with the result that the pen will write freely and easily, and a novel method for its production.
Having now indicated in a general way the nature and purpose of my invention, I will proceed to a detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof and of the method for its production with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure l is a plan view of the forward portion of a pen embodying this invention.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the forward portion of a pen embodying a modification of the invention as shown in Figure 1.
In the drawing, a, a indicates a pen having a pierce hole b and nibs c, c, the ends of which form a writing point, which may be plain, or formed to give a so-called ball point or otherwise as desired.
Informing the nibs of the pen embodying this invention the pen is sheared from the point to.
the pierce hole along two lines, either diverging from adjacent the point to the pierce hole, as shown in Figure 1, or in parallelism as shown in Figure 2.
, Where the pen a is sheared on diverging lines (1, d, as shown in Figure 1, a triangular piece of the body of the pen is removed leaving a triangular opening 6 between the nibs. The base of the triangular opening e is at the pierce hole, while the apex is just short of the point of the pen, the nibs being separated at the point f by shearing on only one of the lines, as for example, on line d, which leaves the nibsat thefree ends of the nibs are subsequently brought together to form the point I, as shown by dotted lines in Figure 2, leaving a substantially triangular opening e, from near the point to the pierce hole.
Thus, in the pens in accordance with my invention there is provided an opening from the pierce hole to near the point, the adjacent edges of which converge from the pierce hole to adjacent the point.
In practice where, for example, the pen in ac cordance with this invention is used with a feeder and reservoir, as in a fountain pen, ink, fed to the pen from the reservoir through the medium of the feeder will freely and continuously flow, in the opening e or e by capillary action, to the writing point of the pen as the pen is used, with the result that the pen will write freely and easily.
In producing a pen embodying this invention by the method embodying this invention, the pen is blanked from suitable steel, as, for example, stainless steel, pierced desirably centrally of the blank between its edges, raised or formed and sheared on a line through the pierce hole and the point and which line of shear extends at an 3:; angle to the axis of the pen and on a parallel line, or on a diverging line from adjacent the point to the pierce hole. When the shearing is on parallel lines the free ends of the nibs formed will be brought together to form the writing point.
It will be understood that various modifications .in the pen and method for its production embodying this invention, as described above, for purposes of illustration may be made without departing from the scope of this invention; and it 5 will be further understood that the pen in accordance with this invention may be produced from so-called stainless steel, bronze or brass, which are contemplated as equivalent for steel within the scope of this invention and within the purview of the claims appended hereto.
What I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
1. The method of producing a pen which includes blanking, piercing, forming, shearing on a line from the point to the pierce hole to form nibs, and shearing from adjacent the point to the pierce hole on a line diverging from the first line of shear in its extension toward the pierce hole.
2. In a method of producing a pen the steps for 1 the formation of nibs, comprising forming a pierce hole and then shearing on a line from the point to the pierce hole and on a line diverging from the first line of shear in its extension toward the pierce hole.
LLOYD S. HENWOOD.
