SELF-CLOSING INK-WELL;
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 739,289, dated September 22, 1903.
Application filed June 24, 1903. Serial Nor 162,961. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern.-
Be-it known that I, JOHN B. CALVERT, a citi- 4 zen of the United States, residing at Guthrie,
in the county of Logan, Oklahoma Territory,
I have invented new and useful Improvements in Self-Closing Ink-Wells, of which the following is a'specific'ation.
This invention relates to self-closing inkwells, and has for its object the production of a simple and efficient appliance of this character constructed to be air-tight in closed condition and which is readily opened by pressure from the pen-holding hand of the user.
The nature of the invention will be readily comprehended, reference being had to the following detailed description and to the accomwire.
panying drawings, illustrating the invention in its preferred form of embodiment, it being understood that various modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit of invention defined by the concluding claims.
p In the drawings, Figure 1 is a top plan view of a self-closing ink-well embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the ink-well in closed condition. Fig. 3 is p a similar view with the ink-well opened.
Referring to the drawings by numerals, 1 designates the base of the ink-well, on which are supported two wells '2 2 for ink, although a single well may be employed. Each well has a sliding cover 3, which in closing position effectually seals the well against admission of air and which inopening position rests on a bracket-plate a, supported from the base by an arm 5'and resting on the top of the well at the rear of the ink-chamben Pivoted by means of an eye 6 on the rear portion'of the base is a lever having an up-' wardly-ex tending arm 7, connected by a link 8 with the cover WVhere two ink-wells are provided, the link is of T form, as shown, attachment with the covers being made at the enlils of the head 9. On the link is a pen and pencil rack 10 in the form of a spirally-coiled The lever is preferably constructed from a single lengtlr of stout wire, and the outer end of the link 8 is preferably bent around alateral bend of the arm 7, and-like wise the lever at its pivotal point is laterally bent, said bent portion occupying the eye 6.
The other arm, 11, of the lever depends from ing the upturned end 17 ofthe lever 12.
the pivotal point at an angle to the arm 7, and
at its ends to the rear portion of the base and extending, as shown in Fig. 1, about the ink well or wells. Secured to and depending from.
the forward or free end of the plate is a link 1 5, having a lower hook-shaped end 16, engag- A coiled springlS is attached at its ends, respectively, to the base and the link 8.
In operation pressure by the hand of the user on the upper side of the plate It depresses the latter, and through the medium of the link 15 and lever 12 the lever 7 11 is rocked to the position shown in Fig. 3. Such movement of the lever is communicated by the link 8 to the cover or covers, the latter being carried' rearwardly to uncover the ink-wells and in such position are supported by the bracket plate 4. In the movement of the parts to uncover the ink-wells the spring 18 isexpanded, and the pressure being removed from the plate 1i said spring operatesto retract the parts and return the covers to closing position.
I claim as my inventionl. A self-closing ink-well, consisting of a well, a slidable cover therefor, a U-shaped pivoted plate partly encircling the well, a pivoted lever beneath the well and having link connection with the plate, a pivoted lever at the rear of the Well having link connection at its upper end with said cover and having'its lower end in engagement with the aforesaid lever. I
2. A self-closing ink-well, consisting of a well, a slidable cover therefor, a U-shaped pivoted plate, a lever having link connection with the plate,'a lever arranged to be moved by the aforesaid lever, a link connecting the last-named lever with the cover, a spring conneoted to the link, and a pen and pencil rack carried by said link. i
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the two subscribing witnesses.
JOHN B. CALVERT. Witnesses:
