i NITED STATES ,EDWARD T.'GIBSON, OF FORT WASHAKIE, WYOMING TERRITORYL PATENT OFFICE@ TRACING DESK SPECIFICATION forming To all whom it may concw Be it known that I, EDWARD TINKHAM Grn- SON, a citizenpt' the United States, residing at Fort Washakie, in the county ot' Sweet- Water and Territory of W yoming, *have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tracing-Desks, ot' which the following is a luli, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the annexed drawing, forming part of this specification. i
The 'object of my invention is to aft'ord a ready means of making tracings, copies, &c., upon paper orlinen .and theinvention consists of a transparent desk of novel Construction, as hereinai'ter described.
In the accompanying drawing is shown a perspective viewof my improved tracing-desk D represents a narrow table upon which is supported an inclined desk, D', consisting of thethree-sided rectangular base 0, theft-ame B, sccured in 'an inclined position upon "the base, and a plate of window-glass, A, whichjs let into the frame. The plate, of glass is to be of any desired dimensions,preferablyeighten by twenty-four incles, and may be supported.
in an inclined position" by any suitable frane-' work.
4 Near. the lower edge of the frame B is secured a strip, E, which serves as a rest for the sheets ot' paper to be placed upon the glass, and a similar strip, F, placed above the strip E, is designed to hold the two sheets together. To employ this desk in making tracings from sheets ot' paper, Sto., it is to be placed close in front of a window in a room' with the upper border of the inclined plate A and the open side of the base G toward the window. The
windowc'nrtain, which should bean opaque part of Letters Patent No. 253,:368, dated February '7, 1882.
Application filed December 5, 1881. (No model.) v
"one, is then to be lowered until it reacles the upper edge of the frane B, so as tolimit the entrance of the light to the open side ofthe base beneath the plate A. The object to be traced or'copied is. then placed upon the glass plate and over it-'is laid. the' sheet of blank paper or linen which is to receive the tracing. W'ith' this Construction the light illuminates the paper and object to be traced, so that a copy is easily taken. The illumination of the object may be still further increased by-providing the interier of the base'C with reflecting-surfaces, such as white paint, tin, or re-. fiect'ors. At night an artificial light may be employed.
The advantages possessed by this invention over the usnal neans for making copies and .tracings are that it saves time and material,
since thedesired tracing is taken at one operation. Its valueis also very great in quickly -preparing accurate copies of original reports which have to be made in duplicate and triplicate. It also fur'nishes a ready means of detecting inaccuracies in similar reports. l Having thus described myinvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
ln a tracingdesk, the combination of the I base G', open at one side for the entrance of the light and lined with a reflecting-surface, .the frame B, Secured thereto in an inclined position, the glass plate A, let into the frame, and the strips E and F, snbstantially as' shown and described. i O
