UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
THOMAS T. LUSCOMBE, OF OARTHAGE, MISSOURI.
BLOTTlNG-PAD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 441,498, dated November 25, 1890.
Application filed November 1889- Serial No. 329,273. (No specimens.)
To all whom it may concern,.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS T. LUSCOMBE, of Carthage, in the State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Blotting-Pads, of which the following is a specification.
The blotting-pad in which my invention is comprised is one which is made from the natural tripoli rock. This substance I find pos-A sesses the absorbent properties requisite for a good blotting-pad, while at the same time it does not soften by water or moisture or mix with it. Moreover, the face of the pad can be readily renewed whenever necessary by rubbing with sand-paper or the like, which operation will remove the surface of the pad,
Y which may be filled with the ink, and will present a fresh surface equal in absorbent properties to the original. The pad not only possesses the above advantages,but is cheap and durable. Moreover, the material of which it is composed is so heavy that of its own Weight it will press sufficiently upon the paper to which it is applied to take up the ink thereon, so that the manual pressure which must be applied to the ordinary paper pad is here unnecessary. The pad, indeed, by reason of its weight will serve all the purposes of a paperweight as well.
The preferred form of my invention is represented in the accompanying drawing, to which reference now Will be made.
The drawing is a perspective view of the pad.
The pad here represented is what is known as a roller-pad, consisting of a handle A, a yoke B, terminating at its outer ends in pins which form theV gudgeons or pintles on which the roller-pad turns, and a roller-pad consistsult in grinding away and enlarging the bearv ings in the tripoli, and for this reason the separate bearings cv, fixed to and revolving with the tripoli roller, are interposed between the pintles and the material of which the body of the roller is composed. It is obvious, of course, that the bearings might be in the yoke and the pintles or gudgeons might be fixed to the roller. This would be but a mere reversal of the arrangement shown in the drawing.
The yokeB is made of spring metal, so that its ends can be spread apart to permit the i'usertion or withdrawal of the tripoli roller.
Vhat I claim herein as new and of my own invention isl. As a new manufacture, a blotting-pad of tripoli rock, substantially as set forth.
2. As a new manufacture, a roller blottingpad consisting of a frame or handle and a rotating cylindrical block of tripoli rock supported therein in bearings, substantially in the manner described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
THOMAS T. LUSCOMBE.
