Various types of utility cabinets have been provided and numerous elements and devices have been combined therein, however, such devices do not combine a general run of devices used throughout a day and, consequently, considerable valuable space is utilized by the different articles. With this thought in mind this invention contemplates,a calendar cabinet such as may be used on a desk or the like in which a plurality of articles, such as a mirror, rule, ile, spirit level -and pencil Sharpener are combined so that the same area usually required for a calendar or calendar pad includes a plurality of useful articles.
The object of this invention is, therefore, to provide means for incorporating a plurality of articles or devices in a pocket calendar cabinet.
Another object of the invention is to provide a combination calendar and mirror cabinet which is so constructed that a pencil Sharpener may be provided therein and wherein a ruler, tile, and spirit level may be positioned on the outer surface.
A further object of the invention is to provide a combination calendar and mirror cabinet in which the device is of a simple and economical construction.
With these and other objects and advantages in view the invention embodies a comparatively small rectangular-shaped housing having a calendar pad slidably mounted in a frame in the face or front thereof, a mirror positioned in the back, a pencil Sharpener incorporated therein and also with a spirit level formed in one side and a ruler and le positioned on the surface.`
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description taken in connection with the drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the cabinet showing the side in which the mirror is positioned.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the cabinet also showing the side in which the mirror is positioned, and showing the mirror partly extended from the cabinet.
Figure 3 is a plan view looking downwardly upon the upper end of the cabinet showing an opening for a pencil and through which a pencil to be sharpened may be inserted.
Figure 4 is a view similar to that shown in Fig. 3
' 2,804,198 Patented Aug. 27, 1957 showing a slide for gripping the pencil in the'pencil sharpener'extended from one side of the housing.
Figure 5 is a front elevational view of the improved calendar cabinet showing the device positioned on one end and showing the ruler and tile on the lower surface thereof.
Figure 6 is a sectional plan through the housing taken on line 6 6 of Fig. l with the parts shown on an enlarged scale.
Figure 7 isa view looking upwardly toward the under surface of the cabinet showing a ruler and tile and with the parts shown on an enlarged scale.
Figure 8 is a plan view showing the upper surface of the cabinet also with the parts shown on an enlarged scale.
Figure 9'is a longitudinal section through the cabinet taken on line 9-9 of Fig. 4 also with the parts shown on an enlarged scale and showing, in particular, the spirit level glass and pencil Sharpener. Y
Figure 10 is a view showing a holder for the blade of the pencil Sharpener to facilitate sharpening the blade,
- part of the handle of the holder being broken away.
Figure 11 is a cross section through the blade holder taken online 11-11 of Fig. 10 with the parts shown on an enlarged scale.
Referring now to the drawing wherein like reference characters denote corresponding parts the utility calendar cabinet of this invention includes a calendar pad 10 mounted in grooves 11 and 12 of end walls 13 and 14 of the cabinet and adapted to slide through a slot 15 in the end wall 16, a mirror 17 mounted in slots 18 and 19 in the walls 13 and 14, a spirit level glass 20 having a bubble 21 therein mounted between the upper panel or wal-l 13 and an intermediate partition 22 and positioned to register with an opening 23 in the wall 13, a ruler 24 on one side of the wall 14 and a file 25 on the opposite side, and a pencil sharpener including a block 26 having a conical-shaped opening 27 extended inwardly from an opening 28 in the end wall 16 `of the cabinet and having a cutting blade 29 secured in operative position upon the block 26 with a screw 30.
The cabinet is preferably of rectangular-shape with the end wall 14 forming the base and the wall 13 providing the top and with the end wall 16 providing a closure at one end and an end wall 31, a closure at the `opposite end. The front in which the calendar pad 10 is positioned is provided with a rim 32 and the opposite side or back, in which the mirror 17 is positioned is provided with a rim 33.
The end 16 is provided with a slide 34 having an opening 35 positioned to register with the opening 28 whereby the slide is adapted to be actuated to grip a pencil in the openings to facilitate sharpening the point thereof. The outer end of the slide 34 is provided with a finger nail slot 36 to facilitate removing the slide.
The cutting blade 29 is provided with a sharp cutting edge 37 and the device is provided with a holder 38 having a handle 39 to facilitate sharpening the blade, the holder being provided with a recess 40 in which the blade 29 is secured by a screw 41, as shown in Fig. 11. By this means. the blade may readily be stropped or sharpened by other means.
