H A VBAZIE PENCIL HOLDER AND SHARPENER. No. 521,744.
Patented June-19. 1894.
[UNITED ATENT PENCIL HOLDER AN'D SHARPENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 521,744, dated June 19, 1894.
Application filed March 22, 1894. Serial No. 504,672- (No model.)
Toall whom it may concern.-
, Be itknown that I,- HENRY A. VEAZIE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Orleans, in the parish of Orleans and State of 5 Louisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pencil Holders and Sharpeners; and 1 do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled IO in the art to which it appertainsto make and use the same.
This invention has relation to an improvement in pencil holders and Sharpeners, and it has for its prime object to provide a device at a comparatively small expense which will be very effective for the purposes designed and will serve the functions of holding a pencil, sharpening the point, and carrying an eraser in a neat and compact form.
Other objects and advantages will appear from thefollowing description and claims when taken in connection with the annexed drawings, in which Figure 1, is a plan View of my improved device removed from the pencil. Fig. 2, is a longitudinal, sectional view of the same. Fig. 3, is a cross sectional view taken in the plane indicated by the dotted line as, w, on Fig. 2. Fig. 4', is an enlarged perspective, sectional '30 View of the tubular casing or holder with parts broken away, and'Fig. 5, is a perspective view of the knife removed.
Referring by letter to said drawings:A, indicates a tube which is preferably composed 3 5 of sheet metal although it may be composed of other suitable material. This tube is of a sufficient length and diameter, and is designed to receive and hold a rubber B, at one end, and a pencil at the other. This tube is also designed to carry the cutter or knife, and a cone receiver for the pencil to be sharpened. In the present illustration, I have shown the cone as comprising an integral part of the tube, and for the sake of cheapness in manu- 4 5 facture, I prefer such construction, but I would have it understood that as it may in some cases be desirable to form the cone separately from the tube, I reserve the right to make the cone separately and fix it within the tube by such means as may suit the fancy or dictation of the manufacturer; there'being many ways in which the tube can be fixed in the position hereinafter fully described.
'In forming the tube and cone 0, entire, I would slit the tube longitudinally for a sufticient distance in its length, and then transversely at each end of the longitudinally slit ted portion as shown at a, and b,after which, the materialof the tube should be carried downwardly and within the tube, as shown so 50 as to form the cone 0, as better illustrated'in Fig. 4, of the drawings, and the free end of said cone is then bent longitudinally so as to form a groove 'D to receive and seat the knife or cutter, and the free edge of this grooved seat will co-operate with the opposite edge d, in forming a longitudinal slot e, for the discharge of the cuttings. At the large end of the cone 0, and embracing the tube A, is preferably placed or fixed a collar f, for the purpose of strength, and for the additional purpose of forming a stop or limit to the inward movement of the knife or cutter, although good re sults might be had with this collar omitted. The end of the tube adjacent to the small end of the cone is designed 'to receive the eraser B, and a band g, may or may not be placed around this end of the tube, as may be desired. The opposite end of the tube is preferably slitted as shown at h, so as to afford 8o elasticity and permit the pencil end to be held firm and yieldingly when inserted.
E, indicates the knife or cutter. This knife is formed from a narrow strip of steel or other suitable material, and although it may be 5 made straight, yet'for good practical results it is preferable to have it curved longitudinally as shown. This knife is shouldered near its outer end as shown at i, and it may have another shoulder is, on the opposite side, 9 and when inserted in the groove D, of the cone, this shoulder or shoulders will abut against thecollar f, or a suitable stop formed at that point. The blade is furthermore provided with a short shank l, and a slide band F, is placed upon the split end of the tube A, which is designed to take over the shank and hold the knife to its seat in proper position.
'Should it be desirable to omit the shank from the blade, the band. coming in contact with the outer end of the knife will serve olfectively in holding the latter to its seat.
With a device of this character, a pencil can be quickly and easily sharpened and the device will also serve as a protector to the sharpened point. Such device may be placed upon the end of a pencil so as to'be conveniently carried in a pocket, and the rubber or eraser is always ready for use. It will also be observed that the knife being removable, it can be quickly and conveniently taken out and sharpened and quickly replaced.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- 1. A pencil holder and sharpener comprising a tube adapted to receive a pencil at one end, and having a collar f, a cone arranged in the tube and having a groove,a removable knife arranged in the groove of the cone and having a shoulder adapted to engage the collar of the tube, and a suitable means for holdiinthe knife in its seat, substantially as speci- 2. A pencil holder and sharpener comprisin g a tube adapted to receive a' pencil at one end, a cone arranged in the tube and formed integral therewith and having a longitudinal groove D, a removable knife arranged in the groove of the cone and having its rear portion resting upon the outside of the tube, and a suitable means for holding the knife in position, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
3. The tube having the cone arranged therein and slotted as described, and also having the groove to seat a removable knife, in combination with the knife and the slidable band for holding the knife in its seat, substantially as specified.
4. The knife for the purpose described, formed from a single piece of material and comprising alongitudinallyourved blade, having one or more shoulders at oneend, and a shank on the outer side of the shoulder or shoulders, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HENRY A. VEAZIE.
