SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 724,844, dated April 7, 1903.
Application filed August '1, 1902.
T aZZwhom it may concern;
. the cast-metal frames for school and similar drawer portion partlyin section,drawer partly drawn out. Fig. 2 shows end view with dovetail attachment to frame member B. Fig. 3 shows section of sponge-box. Fig. 4 shows side view of .device cast integral with frame member B, drawer drawn out to full extent. Fig. 5 shows'end view of portion of Fig. 4 with drawer and box removed. Fig. 6 shows rear view of cast-metal box and cover.
As illustrated inthe drawings, our invention is adapted to be applied to desks already in use, or it may be combined integral with the original frame- .casting. As an attachment it consists of a plate A, conforming in outline to the metal sides or standards supporting the desk-top and having a plurality of horizontal concave ledges or troughs 2, adapted to contain pencils, penholders, and the like. Each trough is notched centrally, as at 3, to admit the fingers re'adilyto engage an article, as a pencil. these finger-spaces there is greater liability of dropping a pencil and breaking the point or disturbing the class-room in endeavoring to remove the article over the edge of the trough. At the lower end of the plate a sponge-box 4-is secured, which has a cover 5, provided with lugs 6, journaled in notchesin the back edges of the sides of the box. In
order to prevent the lid closing by its own In the absence of Serial No. 118,698. (No model.)
weight, and so disturb the quietness of the room, a spring 7 is attached to the rear of plate A and has an end adapted to extend through a perforation 8 in the plate and to bear constantly upon the rear rounded edge of the cover; The pressure of the spring on the lid is suflicient to hold the latter at any angle, and a pressure of the hand is required to close the lid.
A drawer 9, adapted to contain pens and the like needing protection from dust, is slidable in guides 10 10, disposed horizontally and vertically above the troughs. A stop 11 prevents the drawer becoming completely withdrawn.
The upper horizontal drawer-guide 10 forms the bottom'of a ruler-receptacle 12, whose walls are the extension of the outside vertical drawer-guide 10 and the upper part'of plate A.
vWhen the attachmentisin place on a desk, the upper edges of the plate and of guide 10' abut against the under side of the overhanging portion of the desk-top.
The plate A may be attached to a desk in any suitable manner. Preferably transverse horizontal dovetailed guides 13 are formed on the back of the plate, which engage corre sponding grooves on the frame B of the desk.
In Fig. 4 we have shown our deviceas cast integral with the frame member B, with the exception of the sponge-box and the drawer, which are attached subsequently. Where new desks are being manufactured, this may be said to be thepreferred form for reasons of simplicity, economy, and appearance.
The sponge-box .4 is made with a rearwardly-extending projection 14 on one side adapted to fit a guide-notch in the side of the casting, and the parts are held together by means ofa screw.
A spring 7 bears againstthe cover to prevent its being closed with any unnecessary c c bang. a)
When the desk-top is in position, the whole presents a neat unified appearance, and its IOO Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is I 1. The combination with a desk having a side standard provided with dovetailed grooves, of a plate fitting flatwise against said standard and conforming substantiallyinoutline thereto, and having dovetailed projections on its inner face to interlock with said grooves, said plate having on its outer side a plurality of horizontal, transversely-curved ledges cut away between their ends to form openings for the fingers.
2. The combination with a desk, of a plate fitting flatwise against the side of the deskstandard and conformingsubstantiallyinoutline thereto, said plate having dovetailed projections on its inner face adapted to engage corresponding grooves in the standard, and having article-supporting means on its outside and arranged in vertical series, and having on said outer faces below said supporting means, a box-shaped receptacle, a hinged closure for said receptacle, and a spring on the inside of the plate and operating through a slot therein to bear upon the inner edge of the closure.
3. The combination with a desk of a plate having means to interlock with the side standard of the desk and having projecting from the outer side of its upper end spaced horizontal and vertical flanges and having on said outer face below said flanges a vertical series of trough-shaped ledges of difierent lengths cut away at the central portions, and a projecting box-like receptacle on the lower portion of the plate.
In witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands.
