UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ERNST DIERLAMM, OF LONG ISLAND CITY, NEW YORK.
GUARD FOR PENHOLDERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 500,564, dated July 4, 1893.
Application filed February 16, 1893- Serial No. 462,614. (No model.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ERNST DIERLAMM, of
"Long Island City, Queens county, New York,
have invented an Improved Guard for Penholders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a guard for pen holders which is adapted for the reception of the tip of the index finger and serves to hold the hand of the writer in the proper position.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a pen holder provided with my improved guard, showing it in use. Fig. 2 is asimilar view with the hand omitted; Fig. 3 a perspective of the guard detached and Fig. 4 a cross section of the same.
My improved guard consists of a plate of steel, rubber or other elastic material, bent to form two communicating 'open spring clamps or circles of different size.
a, represents the section of the guard forming the larger circle and b, the section of the guard forming the smaller "circle. The
smaller circle projects with its free end E), into the opening of the larger circle and beyond the free end a, of the same (Fig. 4). Thus the smaller circle will securely embrace the pen holder A, and prevent the guard from slipping. The larger circle is made of the shape of a truncated cone, tapering from top to bottom (Fig. 2), so as to embrace the index finger closely without cutting into the skin with the upper edge.
The index finger is introduced into the larger circle (Fig. 1) and holds the hand in proper position.
I prefer to make both sections a, b, of open work as shown, so as to make the guard light and yielding.
What I claim is A guard for penholders consisting of a plate bent from a longitudinal axis in opposite directions so that the outer edges of the two bent portions approach each other on the same side of the plate, one of said bent portions being adapted to receive the pen and the other the finger, each of said portions having slots or holes stamped out thereof in the direction of the bend, but said slots not extending to the outer edges thereof, substantially as described.
ERNST DIERLAMM.
