UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
RICHARD R. VERNON, or SUMMIT, NEW JERSEY.
DESK IMPLEMENT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 578,589, dated March 9, 1897.
Application filed December 7, 1896. Serial No. 614,672. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern.-
Beit known that I, RICHARD H. VERNON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sum mit, in the county of Union and StateofNeW Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Desk Implements, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is a new article of manufacture, and relates to a desk implement comprising a paper-weight, calendar, and pincushion or well.
My improved article is preferably made of glass or other transparent material and of flat circular form, with a central cavity or well in the upper surface and an annular recess or cavity in the under surface.
The cavity in the upper surface is adapted to hold a pincushion or coil of paper stuck with pins, or when the same is exhausted to form a receptacle for pens, &c.
The annular recess or cavity in the under surface is adapted to receive a collection of superposed paper rings upon whose upper surfaces are printed the calendar months of the year, one on each ring of paper, and some advertisement or reading matter, or items of general information may also be printed on the rings, as desired. These are held in place Within the annular recess in any desired manner.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical section of my improved desk implement. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan below the line 8 at of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 shows a coil of paper stuck with pins as a substitute for the cushion shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
The body of the desk implement is preferably circular, with sides a and a slightly-convex upper surface I), in the central part of which is a depression or well 0, and there is an annular cavity or recess cl in the under surface. The body is of approximately the sectional form shown in Fig. 1. The well 0 is adapted to receive the pincushion 6 (shown in Fig. 1) or the coil of paper f, stuck with pins, as shown in Fig. 3. Where this coil of paper is employed, a fresh strip can be inserted in the well as each strip is emptied of pins, or, if preferred, the well'may be used as a receptacle for pens, &c.
The paper rings h are alike and correspond approximately in size to the annular cavity,
and upon one surface of each or a portion thereof is printed a monthly calendar, and I prefer to employ'twelve paper rings superposed and received in the recess d, the twelve rings having thereon the calendar months of the year, the arrangement of each calendar being, as shown in Fig. 2, upon radial lines and visible through the glass body when in place. Said group of superposed rings are preferably retained in place by a round rubber band 1., stretched over the central portion cular form having a central cavity in its up-' per surface, an annular recess in its under surface, and a collection of flat superposed rings within said annular recess upon whose faces are printed the calendar months, one entire ring at a time being visible through the transparent material, and means for holding the same in place, substantially as set forth.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a desk implement preferably of glass of flat circular form having a slightly-convex upper surface and a central cavity therein, a cushion for pins Within said cavity and having an annular recess in its under surface, a collection of flat superposed rings of paper or similar material within said annular recess upon Whose upper faces are printed the calendar months, one on each ring to be seen through the glass, and a round rubber band for holding the said rings in place, substantially as set forth.
Signed by me this 4th day of December, A. D. 1896.
RICHARD R. VERNON.
