ERNEST F. DU BRUL, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO THE MILLER, DU BRUL & PETERS MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
ORDERING BOOK OR CARD FOR ClGAR-IVIOLDS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 663,332, dated December` 4, 1900.
Application filed July 3l, 1900 Serial No. 25,435. KNO model.)
To all whom t may concern,.-
Be it known that I, ERNEST F. DU BRUL, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ordering Books or Cards for Cigar-Molds, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being` had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
M v invention relates to an ordering book or card for cigarmolds. Many thousands of different sizes and shapes of cigars are demanded by the trade, and it is necessary to have a distinct mold for every specific shape of cigar produced no matter how minutely the shapes may differ among themselves. There is no way of adequately designatingthe al most innumerable shapes except by the use of a picture or drawing of the thing itself; but the desirability of ordering by telegraph precludes the use of a picture or drawing, and even when ordering by mail the plan of sendingacutor drawing is troublesome and causes Waste of time and labor. A cigar shape cannot be satisfactorily described in words, and aside from being thus troublesome such a de# scription in telegraphic orders is very expensive. The plan of giving each shape a name has been resorted to, but this was unsatisfao tory, because the name was entirely arbitrary and in no Wise descriptive and gave rise t-o frequent misunderstanding.
To these ends my invention consists in its fullest conception, first, in providing a suitable illustration of every individual shape of cigar produced by a mold; second, in designating every such shape by a separate number; third, in having each number so constructed that the first three figures shall consist of the integer and fractional figures or digits expressive of the length of the cigar and the last one, two, or three figures or digits of said number indicate a definite form underthepai-ticularlength,naughtsorciphers being introduced between the ends of the number for the purpose of filling out the number and giving to all the numbers an equal number of figures; fourth, in having a distinctive name for every shape, and, fifth, in having the shapes of each length grouped and each group indexed by the nulnber rationally Written expressive of that length.
My invention will be fully understood upon reference totheaccompanyingdrawings,illus trating suggestive portions of my improved system, and in Which- Figures l toet represent fourgroups of forms having the index-numbers 5, j -g, and 5%. Fig. 5 represents a group of forms having the index f but with the names and numbers in slightly diiferent arrangement.
As Will be seen, each group comprises a number of outlines or representations of shapes, a series of distinguishing-numbers applied to the respective shapes, a series-of different names also associated with the respective shapes, and a bracket grouping the shapesandhavinganindex5"5,&c. The names are arbitrarily applied, but the numbers are made up of special arrangements of digits, so as to each express intelligibly the length of the form and its number-that is to say, referring to Fig. l, the numbers employed are 500,001500,062,&c., which numbers are made up of 500 and 6l 62 63, dto., with an intervening O. The first digit expresses the integer or whole number of the dimension, and the second and third digits express the fractional portion of said number, While the last one, two, or three digits make up the ordinal number designating the form. Hence all the forms listed in Fig. l are five inches long, (no fractions of inches,) and they are numbered consecutively from )7 (71.77
Fig. 2 represents a group indexed 5i-f meaning the forms are all live and one-fourth inches long, and consequently they are expressed by numbers all commencing with 514, 5 being the integer of the length and l and 4, respectively, the numerator and denominator of the fraction of an inch. Said numbers terminate in numerals running from l to 12, one or more intervening Os being employed to llout the number.
In like manner Fig. 3 is indexed 5 and the numbers given to the forms in the group therefore begin with the digits 518; so, also, the numbers of Fig. Ll, which begin 536,
IOO
are understood to mean cigar forms iive and th1eesixteeutl1s inches long, the (3 being understood by its position to stand for 10.
It will be observed from Fig. 5 that I do not limit myself to the precise arrangement of the illustrations, names, numbers, and group-indexes shown in Figs. l to 4; but these may be arranged in other suit-able wayssuch, for instance, as suggested in Fig. 5.
I claim as my inventionl. A book or card having means designat ing cigar-molds of varying dimensions and shapes, the same consisting in a series ot' numbers respectively applied to the definite shapes of cigars, produced by the several molds, and each number expressed by a plurality of digits, the digit or digits forming one end of the number being expressive of the style or shape of the cigar produced by the mold.
2. A book or card having means designating cigar-molds producing cigars of varying shapes and sizes, consisting of a series of numbers, respectively applied to the specific shapes produced by the several molds, and the numbers being expr rssed by a uniform number of digits of which the digits forming the ends of the numbers respectively express dimension and style, and naughts or ciphers being employed intermediate of the digits in the numbers, to render the numbers uniform.
3. A book or card having means for designating cigar-molds according to the dimensions and shapes ofthe cigars which they pro duce the same consisting of a series of numbers composed of a uniform number of digits, of which the digits forming the left-hand end of the number designate in inches and fractionsof an inch the lengths of the cigars proeease duced by the molds, and the digits forming the rigl1t-hand end being arbitrarily selected to designate styles or shapes produced by the molds, and intermediate ciphers or naughts being employed to render the numbers uni-v form and give space for substitution ot' digits to designate the variations in size and style.
l. A book or card having means for designating cigar-molds according to dimensions and shapes ofthe cigars which said molds produce, the same consisting in a series of numbers composed of a uniform number of digits, of which the rst digit is the integer or Whole number of the oigars longitudinal dimension andthe second and third digits are respectively the numerator and denominator of the fractional part of said dimension while the digit or digits at the opposite end of the number designate the style of mold; substantially as herein set forth.
5. A book or card having means for designating cigar-molds according to dimensions and shapes of the cigars which said molds produce, th-e same consisting in a series of numbers composed of a uniform number of digits, of which the first digit is the integer or whole number of the cigars longitudinal dimension and the second and third digits are respectively the numerator and' denominator of the fractional part of said dimension while the digit or digits at the opposite end ofthe number designate the style of mold; the varying shapes being grouped according to size and the groups being indexed by numbers expressive of the size. y
