UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ELMER I. NEWMAN, OF DIMONDALE, MICHIGAN, ASSIGN OR OF ONE-THIRD TO DARWIN F. EMENS, OF ROCHESTER, NEW YORK.
COPY-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 237,582, dated February 8, 1881. Application filed August 10, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ELMER P. NEWMAN, of Dimondale, Eaton county, Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Copy-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved copy-holder for writingbooks ruled parallel with the binding-edge, which holder is simple in construction and convenient in use.
The invention consists in a copy-holder formed of metal or some other suitable material, having the ends bent under toward the lower side of the holder, so as to form grooved flanges to embrace the edges of the writingpaper, whereas the upper longitudinal edge of the holder is bent over downward on the upper side of the holder to form a grooved flange to hold the copy, which is also held by the bent prongs on the lower edge of the holder.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a plan view of my improved copy-holder. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the under side of the same. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional elevation of the same on the line a: m, Fig. 1; and Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional elevation of the same on line y 3 Fig. 3.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The copy-holder is formed of a strip, A, of metal or other suitable material, which has its ends bent under on the under side to form the grooved flanges B B, to receive the edges of the writing-paper O. The upper edge of the strip A is bent over downward on the upper side, to form a longitudinal grooved flange, D, to hold the upper edge of the copy E, the lower edge of which is held by a series of prongs, F F, which are bent on the top of the holder.
The copy E is passed into the holder from the ends. The end of a transversely-ruled sheet of paper, such as legal-cap paper, or the leaf of a writing-book ruled parallel with the binding-edge, is passed through the flanged grooves B B, so that the copy-holder is held to said sheet of paper or leaf. The holder is then passed to the upper end of the paper, and is then gradually moved toward the other end as the writing proceeds.
The copy-holder can remain in the book when the same is folded, occupies very little space, and permits the writer to continually have the copy directly above the line upon which he is writing.
I am aware that oopyholders that slide upand down on the sheet have been made heretofore, but I do not claim this, broadly; but,
Having thus described myinvention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A copy-holder made substantially as herein shown and described, consisting of a strip, A, of metal or other suitable material, having its ends bent over on the under side to form grooved flanges B B, to receive the edges of the paper, and having its longitudinal upper edge bent over on the upper side, to form a grooved flange, D, for holding the upper edge of the copy E, and having bent prongs F F, to hold the lower edge of the copy, as set forth.
ELMER PORTER NEWMAN.
