THOMAS C. TOWNSEND, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
BLOTTE R.
. SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 252,546, dated January 1'7, 1882.
Application filed June 16, 1881.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS C. TOWNSEND, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Blotter, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to furnish a blotter for desk use convenient in every respect.
The invention consists in a blotting-roller provided with a balanced handle, and formed with a hinged segment that retains the blotting-paperin place, all as hereinafter described and claimed. v
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of the blotter partially broken open, and Fig. 2 is a cross-section of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the blotting-roller, consisting of a hollow cylinder, preferably constructed of metal, and covered with one or more layers, a, of paper. The cylinder is formed with a segmental portion, 1), of its surface attached by hinges at 0, so as to swing outward, which segment is held in place, when closed, by spring-catches The outer edge of segment I) and edgeof the opening are turned inward, so that there is a slot in the cylinder that receives the ends of the strip of paper. The paper is to be put around the roller with the ends turned over the edges (No model.)
of the segment and opening, and the segment then closed, which draws the paper tightly and holds it firmly.
B is the handle, consisting of a bent or forked wire rod 0, carrying an ornamental end piece of wood or other material on its outer portion, and having its ends passed through the ends of the roller, so that the roller can turn freely. Within the roller, on the ends of rod 0, is fixed a weight,/, which serves to balance the handle and retain the same in an upright position when the roller is not in use. The handle will thus be kept in position for being readily taken hold of, and is also prevented from dropping upon and blurring the writing.
This roller-blotter is convenient and inexpensive. The paper can be readily renewed from time to time, as required, and the roller is not liable to become mislaid.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The balanced handle consisting of forked rod 6 and weight], combined with the hollow blotting-roller A, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
