SOAPSTQNE HOLDER Filed Feb. 21, 1944 Inventor Patented Aug. 13, 1946 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SOAPSTONE HOLDER Alvin A. Plut, Ponca City, Okla.
Application February 21, 1944, Serial No. 523,377
1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to a device for holding a stick of soap stone.
An important object of the invention is to protect the soap stone from breaking.
Another object is to permit the stick to progressively be extended from the holder.
Another object is to provide a holder that presents a simple and efiicient means to enable the user to readily manipulate the stick.
Another object is to definitely anchor the stick in the holder at any desired position.
Another object is to provide an extremely simple compact holder capable of holding the stick until practically all of it has been used.
Other objects of the invention will be apparent from a reading of the specification and reference to the drawing, in which like numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views:
Figure 1 is a top elevation.
Figure 2 is a side elevation.
Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view f Figures 1 and 2', and.
Figure 4 is a detail view of the spring element.
With iron workers, welders, pipe fitters, etc., their difficulty has been in preventing the stick from breakin and also in having too much wastage of the stick.
In Figures 1, 2, and 3, the numeral l indicates the body of the holder. The numeral 2 indicates the stick of soap stone which, by reference to Figure 3, may be clearly observed in its normal position.
The spring element 3, Figure 4, having at one 2 end the bent down portion 4 which due to the pressure caused by the body I at its forward end 5 will cause the portion 4 to frictionally hold the stick 2 firmly within the body I.
The spring element 3 is, preferably, made of ordinary flat spring material.
The slot 50. in the body 1 permits of the back and forward movement of the spring 3 thereby rendering ready adjustment of the stick 2.
A knob or handle 6 may be screwed into or otherwise attached to the spring 3.
It is believed, that from the foregoing, a thorough understanding of my invention and the advantages thereof may be acquired.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
In a holder for a soap-stone, a casing, rectan gular in cross-sectional configuration and having an open end through which said soap-stone is adapted to project, and a slot in one side thereof, a leaf spring positioned adjacent said slot within said casing, a flange formed at one end of said spring inwardly turned with respect to said casing, adapted to be secured in said soap-stone, a projection secured to said spring at an intermediate point extending outwardly from Said casing through said slot, and a knob at the end of said projection of a diameter greater than the width of said slot whereby movement of said knob acts through said spring and said flange to move said soap-stone inwardly and outwardly with respect to said casing.
