SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,549, dated July 1, 1902.
, Application filed March 22, 1900. Renewed February 5, 19Q2, Serial No. 92,748. (No model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, SAMUEL HY. CRooKER, engineer, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, residing at 31 Furnival street, Holborn, London, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pens, of which the following is a specification.
This invention provides a pen which can be easily detached from the penholder even when fouled with ink. With the pens and penholders commonly in use it is very diffi cult to remove the pen or nib from the holder after it has been used for some time, as the parts adhere together, owing to a deposit of dry ink, frequently causing great inconvenience and soiling the fingers of the person using the pen. Such pens are usually slid into the holder, which is provided withfmeans for retaining them in position.
My improved pen instead of being secured inside of the holder is fitted on the outer side and is clipped into position by a motion at right angles to the holder. The pen or nib is formed at'or near its upper end with an extension at each side, which continues the curve of the nib through the greater part of a circle. These extensions or wings are resilient and spring onto the tubular holder, clipping it tightly, so that the nib is securely held in position. The edges of the wings aresufficiently distant from each other to allow them to open when pressed over the surface of the holder, so that they slide over it and on passing the half-circle close together to grip the holder. To detach the pen, all that is required is to push the writing end up, the other end of the pen acting as a fulcrum, so that the wings slide over the surface of the holder and are opened by it until they pass the widest portion, when the nib is released.
The accompanying drawings'illustrate my invention.
Figure 1 is aperspective view of the pen in position. Fig. 2 shows it separate. Fig. 3 illustrates the method of removing the pen, and Fig. 4 shows a-slight modification.
The holder A consists simply of a tube .the holder.
forced over it.
fitted onto the end of a handle, or the usual 'form of holder may be employed. As the with the wings 0 shown close to the upper end and continuing the curve of the stem, the gap between the wings being of sufficient width to enable the pen to be sprung over The pen may of course also be slidonto the holder to take up the same position; but it is easier to clip it on in the manner described.
Fig. 3 shows the pen partly removed, and it may be seen that the upper end bears upon the surface of the ferrule, while the wings are The wings or clipping portions, which are of course resilient, may extend along the whole straight length of the pen; but I prefer to make them short and at the upper end only.
Instead of wing-pieces at both sides of the pen a single extension A at one side might serve the same purpose, as in the form shown in Fig. 4. H
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A pen stamped from one piece of metal, having aportion of its stem extended at the side in such a manner that it can be clipped 'sidewise onto the outer surface of the penholder, substantially as described.
2. A pen, stamped from one piece of metal, having at the upper end of its stem two projecting wing-pieces continuing the curve of the stem through the greater part of a circle, and adapted to be clipped sidewise onto the outside of a penholder, substantially as described and shown and for the purposes specified.

In witness whereof I have set my hand in the presence of two witnesses.
