- MOUNTING BLOCK FOR RUBBER STAMPS Filed April 21, 1939 mmmm IN VENT OR [A RL M MORSE ATTOR EY Patented Apr. 2, 1940 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,195,994 I MOUNTING BLOCK FOR RUBBER STAMPS Earl W; Morse, Rochester, N. Y. Application April 21, 1939, Serial No. 269,189
4 Claims. This invention relates to rubber hand stamps and the like and more particularly to-the construction of the mounting block for the rubber stamp and the attachment thereto of identiflca 5 tion means for identifying the stamping or printing element in the mounting-block, andthe invention has for its principal object to provide the mounting block with simple anchoring means in combination with a novel form of holding memher for efliciently clamping and displaying the identifying label of theprinting element on the mounting block.
A further object ofthis invention is to provide novel label fastening means which are adapted for use on varying lengths of mounting blocks cut from fabricated strips of uniform cross section available as stock articles.
These and other objects and attendant advantages of this invention will become more readily apparent from the detailed description The rubber hand stamp embodying the sub ject matter of the present invention comprises the mounting block I which is formed of wood or other suitable material and is provided at the bottom with an inverted longitudinally extends ing mounting channel, 2. One side of the mounting block is provided withthe anchoring groove 4 3 which extends angularly into the side toward the bottom of the block and is spaced a predetermined distance from the'bottom of the block. A-handle dis suitably mounted in the middle of the top of the block. A yielding bed or cushion member 5 of sponge rubber or other suitable material is set into the mounting channel with one of the sides of the bed left unattached in the channel for a purpose that will presently appear. The rubber stamp 6 which carries the type is suitably secured to the bed 5 to be yieldingly supported thereon. From the foregoing it will be apparent that a substantiallyfinished mounting block of any desired length may be cut from a stock length of wood or similar material which has been fabricat ed with a continuous mounting channel 2 and a continuous anchoring groove 3 the full length thereof.
" The type carried by the rubber stamps is usually not readily readable by the person or persons 5 ,1 using the stamp, and if a number of such stamps are used, each carrying a difierent legend, name or address, it is dimcult to quickly tell the difference between the stamps unless each is properly identified with a label carrying the legend, name 10 or address on the side or top of the mounting block.
In the present invention the label used for this purpose is one printed from the type of the rubber stamp in the form of a strip of substantially the 16 height of the type. This label is permanently fastened to the side of the mounting block by means of the transparent locking strip 8 which is formed of celluloid or other suitable material and is provided along one edge with the angular l0 anchoring flange 8 and along the opposite edge with the locking flange ill.
The anchoring flange 9 is adapted to engage into the anchoring groove 3 of the mounting block While the locking flange is adapted to slide 25 over the rounded bottom edge of the mounting block and engage into the mounting channel 2 for frictional engagement with the'side of the bed 5% illustrated in Figure 3. In sliding over the bottom edge of the mounting block, the lock 80 ing flange l8 draws the anchoring flanged into the anchoring groove 3 so that the locking strip v 8 istightly'drawn over the label I and the label firmly clamped against the side of the mounting block. Furthermore the frictional engagement 35 of the locking flange ill with the side of the sponge rubber bed 5 provides additional holding means for the locking strip sothat once the locking strip is snapped in place, it firmly holds .the label on the mounting block withouttheneed 40' of any other fastening means.
As will be seen from an inspection of Figure 5 of the drawing, the label strip l has a width which normally extends between the anchoring flange Q and the locking flange it of the locking (,5
strip so as to permit its ready insertion thereinto prior to the attachment thereof to the side of f the mounting block. When, therefore, the locking strip is snapped in place, as above pointed out, the bottom portion of the label is wrapped around the bottom edge of the mounting block so label is thus attachable to theside of the mount- 58 ing block for clear display and identification of the type carried by the stamp.
I claim:
1. In a mounting block for rubber stamps and the like the combination of a block member having an inverted mounting channel in the bottom and an anchoring groove in the side thereof, a transversely bendable label strip for attachment to one side of said block member, an anchoring flange along one edge of said strip for engagement into said anchoring groove and a locking flange along the other edge of said strip for lateral movement over the bottom of said mounting block and engagement into said mounting channel with the anchoring flange in engagement in said anchoring groove,
2. In a mounting block for rubber stamps and the like the combination of a block member with an inverted mounting channel in the bottom and an anchoring groove extending angularly toward the bottom in the side thereof, a yielding bed in said mounting channel, a locking strip, an angularly extending anchoring flange along one edge of said locking strip for engagement into said anchoring groove, a locking flange along the other edge of said locking strip extending toward said anchoring flange in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the locking strip for engagement into said mounting channel and frictional contact with said yielding bed.
3. In a mounting block for rubber stamps and the like the combination as set forth in claim 1 including a bendable label adapted for insertion into said locking strip between the inner end of said anchoring flange and said locking flange so as to hold said label against the side of the block member and partially wrapped around one edge thereof.
4. In a mounting block for rubber stamps and the like the combination of a block member with an inverted mounting channel in the bottom and an anchoring groove extending angularly toward the bottom in one side thereof, a locking strip, an anchoring flange projecting downwardly at an angle from the top of said strip, a locking flange spacedly arranged at the bottom of the strip in a plane parallel to the strip and projecting upwardly toward said anchoring flange, said anchoring flange engaging into said anchoring groove and said locking flange engaging into said inverted channel so as to cause the locking strip to be drawn against the side of the mounting block along the top and bottom edge thereof.
EARL W. MORSE.
