PEN-DISTRIBUTER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 48,717, dated July 11, 1865.
To all 'whom t may concern:
Beit known that I, STEPHEN A. POTTER, 0f the city of Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania,'have invented what maybe termed a Pen-Distributer,7 which may be made ofwood metal,orofany suitable material. Itis designed (as the naine indicates) for the use of schools in distributing and collecting the pens daily or at intervals required for the writing exercise; and Ido declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof.
Figure 1 is the pen-distributer in perspective with one drawer drawn out. Fig. 2 is a crosssection showing the front of the drawers, the tongue and the groove, in which the drawer y slides, also the groove for the spring and screw catch, which fastens the drawers by means of pins in the groove, to hold it when closed, also when drawn ont. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical section showing the interior and the partit-ions. Fig. 4 is atop view showing the interior with the drawer, partitions, and numbers. Fig. 5 is a niodiiication of the springcatch.
A, in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 4, indicates the drawers; B, in Figs. 1, 3, and 4, the pen-box to hold the spare pens and holders, C, in Figs. l, 2, and 4, the spring-catch D, in Figs. 2 and 4, the screws t0 hold the drawers; E, in Figs. 1 and 2, the grooves in the drawers for the catches;
F, in Figs. 1 and 4, the pins in the grooves, to strike against the spring and screw-catch G, in Fig. 4, the'extensicn ofthe slide of drawers to keep it steady when drawn out; H, in Figs.
1, 2, and 3, the partitions to keep the pens in their place when any one of the drawers is drawn out; K, in Fig. 5, the modification of the spring-catch; L, in Fig. 5, the spiral spring.
The pen-distributer is a case of drawers, more orlessin number, asdiierent-sized schools may require, and so constructed as to allow the least possible waste room, thereby making it portable, convenient in size, and. yet capable vof holding any number of pens required, so as to save time and prevent confusion in giving to each writer his own pen at each writing eX- ercise.
What I claim as new and original, and for which I desire to secure Letters Patent, is-
The peculiar construction and combination of a oase ot drawers so arranged with partitions H H, divisions A A, and spring-catches C C, or their equivalents, for the purpose and in the manner substantially as shown and described.
