FOUNTAIN-PEN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 658,917. dated October 2, 1900.
Application filed June 19, 1900. s'erial No. 20,802. \No model.)
To all whom it may concern: a The pen may be of any of the usual styles, BeitknownthatI,FRANKJORDAN,a citizen so long as it is provided with an elongated of the United States, and a resident of the slot extended lengthwise of the pen from the borough of Manhattan, in the city and State inner end of the slit leading to the nibs. 5 of New York, have invented a new and useful The fount is denoted by B, and it is of ta- Improvement in Fountain-Pens, of which the pered tubular form, having a large opening following is a specification. at its'inner end and a small opening at its My invention relates to an improvement in outer end. The top bof the fount is curved in fountain-pens, and more particularly to that cross-section to snugly fit the concave inteto class in which a fount is provided for use in rior of the pen A, and its bottom I) is prefconnection with the pen. erably flattened, so that the fount projects One object of my invention is to provide a only a slight distance below the lower sides fount upon the concave side of the pen which of the pen. The fount is provided on its top is so secured to the pen that it does not i'nterwith one or more projections arranged to i5 fore in any respect with the nibs of the pen pass through the elongated slot a in the pen and also will not become displaced by such and be bent over into snug engagement with spreading, but will at all times be held snugly the top of the pen in such a manner as to sein engagement with the under side of the pen, cure an extended engagement of the fount so as to feed the ink'contained within the with the pen to prevent any movementof the 2o fount freely to the nibs. fount when the nibs of the pen are forced A further object is to provide a fount of the apart, as when the pen is in use. The fount above character which will hold a large supis formed from a blank of sheet metal or ply of ink, the fountat the same time being so other suitable material of tapered form, the situated that it will not interfere with the free side edges of the blank being bent around to 25 use of the pen and also will not interfere with nearly meet along the top of the fount.
the dipping of the pen into ink-wells having In the form shown in Figs. 1 to 4, inclusmall apertures. sive, there are two projections or prongs b A practical embodiment of my invention is 17 which are formed integral with the blank, represented in the accompanying drawings, and when the side edges of the blank are 0 in which brought together to form the fount these two Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of a pen with prongs are brought together and extended myimproved fount attached thereto. Fig. 2 upwardly from the top of the fount. These is a vertical longitudinal section through the prongs are of slightly-less width than the pen, showing the manner of attaching the length of the elongated slot a in the pen and 5 fount thereto. Fig. 3is a transverse section, are of a length sufficient to permit them to be on an enlarged scale, through the pen and the inserted through the said slot and then bent fount, taken in the plane of the line 3 3 of Fig. laterally in opposite directions into snug en- 2.

Fig. 5 is a top plan view of In the form shown in Figs. 5 and 6 only 0 0 a pen, showing a modified form of attaching one of these prongs b forinstance, is shown. meansfor securing the fount to the pen. Fig. In the form shown in Figs. 7 and 8 the two 6 is a view in perspective of the fount shown prongs b b are shown as being very narrow in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a view in perspectiveof and as projecting from the top of the fount a fount, showinga third way of attaching the at points near the inner and outer ends of 45 fount to the pen; and Fig. 8 is a partial top the fount. These projections when inserted plan view of the pen, showing the fount repthrough the slot a in the pen may be bent resented in Fig. 7 attached thereto. laterally, as in the case of the prongs 19 12 or The pen is denoted by A, its nibs by a a, they may be bent to extend lengthwise of the the slit leading lengthwise inwardly from the pen, as shown in the accompanying drawings. too 50 nibs by a and the elongated slot leading In all of the forms illustrated in the accomlengthwise from the inner end of the slit by panying drawings the fount is secured to the pen in such a manner that the movement of the nibs of the pen is not interfered with in any way, and the fount is also held absolutely against any movement when the pen is in use. This is a very important feature, as it insures the close contact of the fount with the under side of the nibs of the pen at all times, thus insuring the constant feeding of the ink within the fount thereto.
Theinterior of the fount may be roughened in any desired manner for preventing the toorapid flow of the ink therefrom, either by roughening the inner wall of the blank itself or by applying a coat of paint thereto. This roughened surface is denoted by C.
It is evident that changes might be resorted to in the form and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention. Hence Ido not wish to limit myself strictly to the structure herein set forth; but
hat I claim is 1. The combination with a slit-ted-nib pen having an elongated slot extended lengthwise from the inner end of the slit, of a fount located along the concave side of the pen and provided with means having an extended engagement with the slot for securing the fount against movement when the nibs are forced apart as in use, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with a slitted-nib pen having an elongated slot extended lengthwise from the inner end of the nib, of a fount located along the concave side of the pen, the said fount being provided with a pair of prongs arranged to pass through the said slot and be folded over in opposite directions into engagement with the convex side of the pen for holding the fount to the pen against movement when the nibs are forced apart as in use, substantially as set forth.
3. A pen-fountblank comprising a sheet of metal or other suitable material of tapered form havinga pair of prongs extended laterally therefrom, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of two witnesses, this 13th day of June, 1900.
FRANK JORDAN.
