Description
Tammy kanns; cri mating-Maertens serrer* specification of Letters Patent N. 2,87%*datediieenaoerla; 18412:*
To all who/m, 'it may concern Be it known that I, Triror'rrrffrmmr, of Barre, in the county of'Worce'ster'andState of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Metallic Vriting-Pens, of which the following specication, taken in connection with the vaccompanying drawings, forms a full and exact description, the nature and principle of my said invention by which it may be distinguished from others of like character, together with such parts thereof as I consider new and claim as my discovery, being therein duly represented. Y
Of the drawings above mentioned, Figure l, represents a general View of the'pen or the blades thereof inserted in or connected with the socket of the handle. Fi 2, is the same havingthe upper portion o the metallic socket removed so as to exhibit the relative position of the parts in the interior thereof; and Fig..3, isa vertical central and longitudinal section of thel whole apparatus. Fig. 4, represents the metallic points or blades as they appear when removed from the holder or socket of the handle. Fig. 5, is a front viewof that end of the barrel or socket, through which the metallic points areinserted, while Fig. 6, is a front elevation of the semicircular stud or .foot piece, which sustains the rear pivots, or those on the extremities or rear ends of the metallic li s.
pMy improved pen consists of two blades a, a, Figs. l, 2, 3, 4, of steel or other suitable material, formed as represented in the drawings and otherwise properly shaped to adapt them to their intended purpose. Each of the said blades has a shank or arm b extending rearward of a shoulder 0 formed on the side of the blade as represented in Fig. 4. A metallic point or pivot Z is inserted in, the rear side of the shoulder c, a similar one e being also fixed in the extremity of each of the shanks b, so as to extend therefrom as seen in Fig. 6. The axes of the two points or pivots Z and e of each blade L should be arranged in the same or nearly in the same straight line g h Fig. 4, the said line as will be seen in the drawing making an acute angle g h z' with the inner side 7L z' of the shank l). The metallic nibs or blades being thus prepared, their Shanks are inserted in the socket of the handle Z through a semicircular opening m Figs. 3, 5, formed in the front end of the said socket as seen in Fig. 5,
and are i to be fo'i'ce'd into said socket, juiitil` the shouldersc' correinto Contact withtlre head or frontendrcf thesecket'as see'ntmA4` Figs. l, and 2, and also until the extreme ends of the shanks abut against a piece of metal or bearing stud n Figs. 3, 6, fixed in the interior of the socket as seen in the drawings, the metallic points or pivots d, e, of each blade at the same time entering into corresponding holes 0, 0 Fig. 5 and p, p, Fig.V 6, bored in the front sides of the head of the socket and stud n. Each of the metallic blades is secured in position or prevented from dropping out of the socket, and pressed down upon the seat or lower part 0f the semicircular orifice in the head of the socket by one of two suitable springs g, Q, Figs. 2, 3, whose rear end is att-ached to the upper part of apiece of metal or plug o,
inserted in the socket in rear of the bearing piece n as seen in Fig. 3, and whose front end is bent downward at right angles and enters into a notch or indentation s Fig. 3,
Vsuitably formed in the upper side of the shank b.
From the above it will be seen that the metallic blades or nibs are secured to their holder or socket by pivots or hinges as it were, upon which said blades turn when their points are pressed downward upon a sheet of paper during the operation of writing. This movement of the blades on their pivots or hinges causes them to separate from each other to the degree required in writing pens, the pressure and retraction of the springs g, g, upon the blades, causing them to come together, when the pressure of the pen on the paper is relieved.
The above described pen may be constructed o-f any of the hard metals usually employed for such articles, and if the points are well made and fitted a very excellent article for Ywrit-ing will be obtained, it having all the soft feeling and act-ion of a fine goose quill, and with few or none of theobjectionable qualities ofthe metallic pens Y now in common use.
I construct the blades a, a, with -shoulders n c, c, and pivots (l, e, as before described, for
the sake of convenience in removing theV blades from the socket, but it will be evident that there are various other methods similar in character by which the blades may be c connected or hinged to the socket and which tially as herein before set forth.
as represented in the accompanying drawlnos. Y
n testimony that the foregoing is a Vtrue description of my said invention and im-V provements I have hereto set my signature this twenty sixth day of November in the year eighteen hundred and forty two.
