JOHN BELL, OF HARLEMNEW YORK.
PRINTERS TYPE-CASE.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 6,994, dated January 8, 1850.
T 0 all 'whom/t may concern.'
Be it known that I, JOHN BELL, of Harlem, in the city and county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Printers Type-Case; and I hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of t-he same, reference being had to the annexed drawings.
In the common type case the bottom is only secured to the sides and main :trame work, and consequently is very apt to spring from the lower edges of the partitions that form the recesses tor the letters, when a case charged with type is removed from one place to another. This .almost invariably takes place; and hence small type drop down and become insinuated between the bottom and these edges and produce a well known source of annoyance; besides prematurely wearing out the cases Now my improvement consists in grooving the bottoms of cases for the reception of the lower parts of the partitions and gluing these in them-thus giving each recess a tight bottom-one always in Contact with it-rendering the entire case more compact and durable, and eftectually preventing the escape of the thinnest leads or letters from their places.
The drawing is a perspective view of my improved case, a part of which is represented complete and a part (marked a, a, a, 0,) with the partitions removed to show the grooved bottom.
I have not described the tools for grooving or the mode or modes of using them, as both are too well known to require explication; nor have I named any particular depth of grooves as this will be regulated by the thickness of the bottoms and judgment of workmen. I @Online my claim to- Grooving the bottoms of type-cases for the reception of the lower edges of the partitions, and to securing these in them by glue, in the manner herein set forth or of modes substantially the same.
JOHN BELL.
