WALL-POCKET OR PAPER-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 430,138, dated June 17, 1890.
Application filed September 2, 1889- Serial No. 322,777. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES MEE, of Cort land, in the county of Cortland and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in all-Pockets or Paper- Holders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to wall-pockets or paper-holders.
The object is to provide a deviceof this character that will effectually retain newspapers, magazine's, &c., of various forms and sizes in a convenient manner for removal, and which, when opened, will lock itself in its op en position, and, finally, to provide a device which shall be simple in construction, durable in use, and comparatively inexpensive of production.
Vith these ends in view the invention consists in certain features of construction and combination of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the wall-pocket or paperholder, and Fig. 2 is a vertical central sectional view of the same.
In the drawings, A represents the back piece of the wall-pocket or paper-holder, which may be suitably ornamented and which is shown in this instance as provided at its upper end with an aperture a, through which a nail is adapted to be inserted to secure it in position. A bar-.13, having its intermediate portion rounded, as shown at b, and formed with shoulders b, is secured to the back piece across its lower portion.
0 denotes side pieces secured to the back piece near its side edges and to the ends of the cross-bar, as clearly shown in Fig. 1. The front piece D, which may be suitably ornaniented, is pivoted to the side pieces 0, and is preferably provided with a seat or depression d in its inner face, the object of which will presently appear.
3 denotes a spring-arm, which is seated to slide in the seat or depression d, and which is retained therein bya keeper 61, secured across said seat. The spring-arm in this instance consists of a piece of spring-Wire doubled upon itself and terminates in coils E, which encircle the rounded portion 1) of the cross-bar B between the shoulders b, and have their ends secured in the back piece A. The energy of this spring is exerted to clamp the front piece to the back piece for the purpose of holding the papers, 820., securely in place. Although I prefer this form of spring, I contemplate as coming within the scope of my invention any improved or well-known form. A knob F is secured to the front piece by means of which the said front piece may be swung out and the papers removed.
A spring-casing B issecured to the inner face of the front piece D, and is provided with an end slot B through which the free end of the spring-arms works. A locking-spring B is secured within the said casing and is provided with atooth or shoulder 13*, which, when the front piece is swung out, abuts against the end of the spring-arm s, as shown in Fig. 2, thus locking the device in open position, so that both hands may be employed in searching for and removing papers.
To release the end of the sprii'ig-arm and allow the front piece to return to its normal position, I provide a push-pin B, which is shown in this instance as being inserted through the front piece, thence through the loop of the spring-arm s, and finally secured to the free end of the locking-spring. This push-pin may, however, be arranged and secured in position in any suitable manner without departing from the spirit of my invention.
It will be noticed that when the front piece is in its normal position the upper end of the spring-arm s will be above the shoulder or tooth B and when the front piece is swung out to remove or file papers the spring-arm will slide beneath the tooth or shoulder of the spring B and thereby lock the front piece in open position. To allow the front piece to return to its normal position the push-pin is depressed, which will thus free the tooth or shoulder of the locking-spring from the sprin garm 5, and allow the spring E to act.
Beneath the pivoted front piece is a supplemental pocket G, of usual construction, in which may be placed small articles, such as pencils, envelopes, &c.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the drawings hereto annexed, the operation and advantages of the invention willbe readily understood. It will be noticed that I dispense With the chains, cords, or elastics generally employed to connect the pivoted front piece with the back piece, such means of connection being usually secured to each edge of the front piece at their upper or intermediate portions and then to the back piece. It is obvious that such a construction will only permit papers, magazines, &c., of a breadth equal to or less than the breadth of the pivoted front piece to be clamped in the pocket. To obviate this I have provided a device that will enable papers, magazines, &c., of various sizes to be easily placed into the wall-pocket or paper-holder either from its top or at its sides.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim- 1. The combination, with a back piece, a cross-piece secured thereto, and side pieces secured to said back piece and the cross-piece, of a front piece pivoted to the side pieces,
and a spring attached to said cross-piece and having an arm engaged with said frontpiece, substantially asset forth.
2. In combination, a back piece, a front piece hinged thereto, a spring for clamping the front piece to the back piece, and a device for locking the front piece in open position, substantially as set forth.
3. In combination, a back piece, a front piece hinged thereto, a spring for clamping the front; piece to the back piece, and a device for automatically locking the front piece in open position, substantially as set forth.
4. In combination, a back piece, a front piece hinged thereto, a spring secured to the back piece and provided With an arm engaged with the front piece, a spring-actuated tooth for engaging said arm and locking the front piece in open position, and a push-pin for disengaging said spring-actuating tooth'from the said arm, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
CHAS. MEE.
