JIG FOR ASSEMBLING INDICIA PIECES ON AN ALIGNING STRIP Filed Aug. 12, 1954 IN VEN TOR. JOHN DE'MPN SMITH) OLSEN & K0778 United States Patent HG FOR ASSEMBLING INDICIA PIECES ON AN ALIGNING STRIP John Dempnock, Jr., Van Dyke, Mich.
Application August 12, 1954, Serial No. 449,447
Claims. (Cl. 1541.6)
This invention relates to an assembly jig for positioning indicia pieces on an aligning strip. The jig can be used in the method of aligning letters disclosed in my copending application, Serial No. 449,446, filed August 12, 1954.
In the above noted method letters or numbers or the like are cut from a thin sheet of gummed plastic and are then removably fastened in predetermined position on a gummed aligning strip, whereupon they can be handled as a unit for pasting against any desired surface to form a sign. It is essential that the letters be correctly aligned on the aligning strip, otherwise they Will be incorrectly aligned on the finished sign.
One object of this invention is to provide a device of simple construction for transferring an indicia piece from a stack of pieces onto a predetermined spot on a gummed aligning strip.
Another object is to provide a jig in which the stackforming members are removably mounted whereby the contour and number of stacks may be changed to give varying indicia arrangements.
Other objects of this invention will appear in the following description and appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification wherein like reference characters designate corresponding parts in the several views.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a sectional view taken on line 11 of Figure 2.
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line 33 of Figure 1 but with the cover plate partially raised.
Before explaining the present invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and arrange ment of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawings, since the invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced or carried out in various ways. Also,
, it is to be understood that the phraseology or terminology employed herein is for the purpose of description and not of limitation.
With particular reference to the drawings the jig is seen to include a base plate 1 having four posts 2 extending upwardly therefrom in slidable engagement with frame 3. Springs 4 floatably support the frame in contact with the under surface of wing nuts 5 threaded on posts 2. Removably positioned within frame 3 (by means of screws 6) is a plate 7 having follower blocks 8 cut therefrom to form recesses 9 for receiving a stack of indicia pieces 15. As shown, blocks 8 merely rest on the upper face of base plate 1, but if desired they can be removably fastened thereto.
One side of frame 3 is provided with ahorizontal bar 10 which serves to hingedly mount cover plate 11, the underface of which is covered with a sheet of sponge rubber 12. A latch (not shown) releasably retains cover 11 in the Figure 1 position.
In using the jig a stack of indicia pieces are first placed 2,760,547 Patented Aug. 28, 1956 in recesses 9, after which a gummed aligning strip 14 is placed over plate 7 with its gummed surface facing blocks 3. After cover 11 is latched in place, frame 3, block 7, and cover 11 are manually pushed down as a unit against the action of springs 4 until the gummed surface of strip 14 contacts the uppermost indicia piece in the stack. On release of the pressure frame 3, block 7 and cover 11 will spring up as a unit (under the influence of springs 4) to disengage the uppermost indicia piece from the rest of the indicia pieces in its stack. Rubber sheet 12 will force strip 14 into contact with any stack of indicia pieces that might not be as high as the other stacks.
The contour of the indicia can be changed by unscrewing screws 6, and replacing plate 7 and follower blocks 8 with another plate having dilferently contoured follower blocks.
From the foregoing description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it can be seen that an assembly jig has been provided wherein indicia pieces may be effectively removed from a stack of pieces onto a predetermined spot on a gummed aligning strip, and the contour and number of stacks may be changed to give'varying indicia arrangements.
I claim:
1. A jig for positioning an indicia piece on an aligning strip comprising; a base plate; a second plate parallel to said base plate, said second plate having an aperture therein; spring means maintaining said apertured plate away from said base plate; a indicia-supporting block on said base plate and in alignment with said aperture; 21 cover plate disposed on the face of the apertured plate remote from the base plate; and means mounting said cover plate for movement from a position closing the aperture in the apertured plate to a position exposing said aperture; whereby when a stack of indicia pieces are placed on said indicia-supporting block and in said aperture, a gummed aligning strip is positioned between said apertured plate and cover plate with its gummed surface facing said stack of pieces, and said apertured plate is moved toward said base plate the gummed face of the aligning strip will contact the uppermost indicia piece in the stack and raise it from the stack upon release of the moving force.
2. A jig for positioning an indicia piece on an aligning strip comprising; a base; a member parallel to said base, said member having an aperture therein; means yieldably maintaining said apertured member spaced away from said base; an indicia-supporting block on said base in alignment with said aperture; and a cover plate disposed on said apertured member; whereby when an indicia piece is placed on said indicia-supporting block, and a gummed aligning strip is positioned between said cover plate and said apertured member, the apertured member can be moved toward said base plate for permitting the gummed face of the aligning strip to contact one face of the indicia piece.
3. The combination according to claim 2 wherein a part of the indicia-supporting block at all times extends into the aperture with which it is aligned; whereby the indicia piece is prevented from shifting off the indiciasupporting block prior to the time when it makes contact with the aligning strip.
4. A jig for positioning an indicia piece on an aligning strip comprising; a base plate; a frame parallel thereto; an apertured plate removably mounted in said frame, spring means maintaining said frame and apertured plate away from said base plate; an indicia-supporting block removably positioned on said base plate in alignment with the aperture in the apertured plate whereby differently contoured indicia pieces can be accommodated by changing the type of apertured plate and indicia-supporting block; a cover plate disposed on the face of the apertured plate remote from the base plate; and means mounting said cover plate for movement from a position closing the aperture in the apertured plate to a position exposing said aperture; whereby when a stack of indicia pieces are placed on said indicia-supporting block and in said aperture, a gummed aligning strip is positioned between said apertured plate and cover plate with its gummed surface facing said stack of pieces, and said apertured plate is moved toward said base plate the gurnrned face of the aligning strip will contact the uppermost indicia piece in the stack and raise it from the stack upon release of the moving force.
5. A jig for positioning an indicia piece on an aligning strip comprising; a base plate; a plate having a plurality of apertures therethrongh and positioned parallel to the base plate; spring means maintaining said apertured plate away from said base plate; a plurality of indicia-supporting blocks on said base plate in alignment with the apertures in the apertured plate; a cover plate disposed above the apertured plate and having a resilient sheet on its lower face; and means mounting said cover plate for movement from a position closing the apertures in the apertured plate to a position exposing said apertures; whereby when stacks of indicia pieces are placed on said blocks and in said apertures, a gummed aligning strip is positioned between the resilient sheet and the apertured plate with its gummed surface facing said stack of pieces, and said apertured plate is moved toward said base plate the gummed face of the aligning strip will contact the uppermost indicia piece in the stack and raise it from the stack upon release of the moving force, the resilient sheet serving to allow the aligning strip to contact any stack of indicia pieces that might be thinner than its adjacent stack.
