UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS J. LITLE, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
INK-STAND.
SPECIFICATION forming part of LettersPatent No. 326,044, dated September 8, 1885.
Application led March 31, 1855. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS J. LITLE, a citizen ofthe United States, and a resident of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Inkst-ands, of which the following is a specification.
r,The object of my invention is to construct a `cheap and simple inkstand which can-be very readily kept clean and easily filled; and this object I attain by constructing the inkstand as hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a vertical section of one form of my improved inkstand. Fig. 2 isasectionalview of amodication. Fig. 3 is a plan View of the same with the cover removed, and Fig. 4 is a perspective view, illustrating the two parts detached from each other, of the simplest form of my improved inkstand.
I prefer to make the inkstand entirely of glass, and the body A may be of the general rectangular form illustrated in Fig. 1,0r ofthe octagonal form illustrated in Fig. 3, or of the cubical or other suitable design illustrated in Fig. 4L. i I form the well a for the ink in the body or block A, and make the Well with a rounded bottom, as illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, and 4, While the top c is formed perfectly lat,with ont ange or rib, so that there will be no crevice into which the ink may collect to intertere with the easy cleaning of the stand.
If desired, the glass body of the stand may have molded in it at the same timea recess, B, for the reception of a pen,brush,or sponge, D, as shown in the modication, Fig. l; but this forms no essential part of my invention. In order to prevent the evaporation of ink .from the well of the stand, I provide the latter with a hopper or funnel-shaped cover, E, with a central opening for'the dipping of the pen. I make the rim F of this cover with perfectly flat under sidef, which Vcan rest on the fiat surface a of the top of thebody of the inkstand, and form a good joint therewith. -When in use, the joint is closed still.'
The rim F of the cover E is provided on f its inner upper side with a rib or iiange, e, which performs a double function.
In connection with the hopper-shaped cover E, a small ball, G, may be used, as shown in Fig. 1, to automatically close the central opening after each dip of the pen, and this rib or flange e will prevent the jumping out of the ball when the pen is quickly dipped into the ink, whi1e,on the other hand, the rib or flange e,.forms a convenient seat for the removable lid H, Fig. 2, when it is desired to use such in place of or in connection with the self-closing stopper G.
I prefer to form on the upper surface of the rim F of the'cover aseries of protuberances, f', which form recesses for holding the pen when the latter is laid across the top of the cover. i
I claim as my invention- An inkstand having a well and a dat top, in combination with a hopper-shaped cover adapted to receive an automatic ball-stopper, and having aflatunder side,f, and a iiange, e, around its inner upper edge, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have signednlyKSof name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
THOMAS J.' LITLE.
