BILL FILE.
SP EGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 546,244, dated September 10, 1 895.
7 Application filed April 20,1895, Serial No. 546,583 (No model.)
To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, FREDERICK WALTER OWEN, of the city of Toronto, in the county of York and Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bill-Files; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
This invention relates to asimple, cheaplymanufactured, and easily-operated bill-file; and the invention consists, essentially, of forming the arched receiving-standards and the handle from a continuous piece of springsteel wire, so arranged that by the compression of the handle the jaws of the arched receiving-standards may be opened to allow of the arched receiving-standards receiving the papers or documents to be filed, and to so shape the ends of the arched receiving-standards that they will serve as a perforator topunctare the paper while it is being placed on the bill-file, the whole device being hereinafter more fully set forth, and more particularly pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the jaws of the bill-tile open. Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the jaws of the bill-file closed.
Like letters of reference refer to like parts throughout the specification and drawings.
The bill-file consistsof two arched receiv ing-wires A A, respectively. The end a of the arched receiving-wire A is pointed to puncture or perforate the paper or document to be filed, while the end a of the arched receiving-wire A is recessed to receive the pointed end a of the arched receiving-wire A. The
total length of the arched receivingwvires A, A is approximately four inches, although I do not confine myself to any particular length for the said arched receiving-wires. The end of the arched receiving-wires opposite the ends a or are arched, and the wire is folded back parallel with the arched receiv ing-Wires A A to form with the arched receiving-wires A A' an oblong figure. The sides B B of the oblong figure respectively opposite the arched recoi ving-wires A A cross each other, and the material from which the said-sides are formed is bent outwardly at right angles to the said sides to form an oblong handle 0 of one continuous piece with the sides B B. ltnlight here be stated that the arched receiving-wires A A, the sides 13 B, and the handle O are preferably made of one continuous piece of spring-steel wire. 'By compressing together the opposite sides of the handle Othe jaws of the arched receivingwires are sprung asunder into the position shown in Fig. 1, and by releasing the pressure on the opposite sides of the handle 0 the resiliency of the material of the bill-file will bring together the jaws of the arched receiving-Wires to enable the bill-file to assume the position shown in Fig. 2. By constructing the arched receiving-wires and the handle of one continuous piece of spring-steel wire it is possible to make a cheaply-manufactured, easilyoperated, simple, and efiective hill-file.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A bill file consisting of ohlong shaped arched receiving wires, an oblong" shaped hanle in one continuous piece with the arched receiving wires, the compression of the opposite sides of which is adapted to render asunder the arched receiving wires, and perforating points for the arched receiving wires to puncture the document or paper filed, substantially as specified.
Toronto, April 13, A. D. 1895.
