CALENDAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of LettersPatent No. 749,528 dated January 12, 1904.
Application filed June 30, 1903. Serial No. 163,755. (Nu model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN ALBERT CHEAPE, a citizen of GreatBritain, residing at Charlottesville, in the county of Albemarle and State of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Calendars,of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in calendars, and more particularly what are known as perpetual calendars, the objects being to provide a simple and inexpensive article of manufacture, which can be printed complete in a single passage throughthe press, if desired, and afterward cut apart toform the several elements of the calendar, or, if preferred, these several elements might be printed consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, which. W111.
independently.
With these objects in view my invention be hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims. n
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a view of my improved calendar, showing the parts assembled in operative position. Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the center, and Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are views of the different parts of my improved calendar.
A represents the back. This isslitted, as in dicated in Fig. 3, by the numerals 1, 2, 3, and 4, the slits 1 and 2 being parallel and 3 and 4 parallel with each other and at right angles to slits. 1 and 2. Just below the slit 2 and above the upper ends of the slits 3 and 4 are arranged the names of the days of the week, commencing, as usual, with Sunday at the left and ending with Saturday at the right-hand end.
B indicates the month-slip. (Shown in Fig. 4.) This is sufficiently long to have indicated thereon the twelve months of the year, comwhich is co-extensive with the length of the slits 3'and 4, through which this slip is adapted to be slid. The length of the slip C is pref' erably the same as the length of the slip B;
This slip C is peculiarly numbered. 1n the first place it is subdivided to have thirteen squares across, and there are six horizontal rows of these squares. The uppermost row is numbered from 1 to 7, both inclusive, from the center to the right-hand end. The second row is numbered across its entire length from 2 to 14, both inclusive, the third row from 9 to 21, the fourth from 16 to 28, the fifth from 23 to 31, as far across as those figures go, and the last row from to 31. In this last line is indicated the key to the adjustment, and this comprises the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.
Referring back now to the month-slip B, on its margins are indicated six different years opposite each month from 1903, say, to 1908. Of course many more might be indicated by a simple extension of the idea. Opposite each year is a letter which corresponds to one of the seven letters of the key, and it is by means of these that the operator knows just how to set his calender. For example, opposite the month of June, 1903, is the letter F, which means that the date-slip should be adjusted so that the letter F at its bottom should be opposite the arrow 5. This will bring the dates of the calendar or of the month of June beneath the proper days of the week. For July, 1903, the date-slip would be shifted until the letter D was opposite the arrow, which would bring the dates properly under-their respective week-days. To carry the idea still further and also to indicate that the extension might be carried on indefinitely and elsewhere than on the month-slip B, I
have indicated it carried on for several years on the back A, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. In this way I provide a very simple and inexpensive calendar which can be used for an indefinite period, thus having great utility for the purpose it is actually intended, and at the same time I provide-a simple advertising medium which can be utilized for that purpose, if desired.
Slight changes might be resorted to in the form and arrangement of the several parts described without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention, and hence I do not wish to limit myself to the exact construction hereof which is slitted or slotted, and the other two parts adapted to slide through the slits or slots, the slitted part bearing the days of the week, one of the sliding parts bearing the days of the month and several key-letters and one of o the other two parts having a plurality of dates and key-letters opposite each date corresponding to each of the key-letters on the part having the days of the month.
3. A calendar comprising three members, one slitted and bearing the days of the week and the other two sliding in directions at right angles to each other throughsaid slits, one of these sliding parts having the days of a month and a key character for several of the vertical columns thereon, and a plurality of years with a corresponding key character opposite each on one of the other parts.
4. As an article of manufacture, a calendar comprising a base, month and day-of-themonth slips adjustably carried thereby, the months on the month-slip each provided with a series of year-numerals and a single one of a series of symbols opposite each year-numeral,the day-of-the-month slip provided with a series of corresponding symbols and a point opposite which any one of the symbols on the day of the month slip is adapted to be brought.
5. As an article of manufacture, a calendar comprising a base, provided with a fixed indicator, month and day-of-the-month slips adjustably carried by the base, the day-of-themonth slip provided with a series of key characters, any one of which may be brought opposite the fixed indicator, the month-slip provided with the names of the month, a series of year-numerals adjacent thereto and a predetermined key character located adjacent each year-numeral, the key character adjacent any month and year numeral denoting that key character which should be brought opposite the fixed indicator in order that the dayof-the-month slip may correctly indicate the sequence of days.
6. A calendar comprising three strips of material, one of which is slotted or slitted, the other two being flexible and adapted to be threaded through the slots or slits and adjustably held therein, the slotted strip provided with a fixed indicator thereon, one of the flexible strips provided with a series of key characters and the days of the month, and the remaining strip provided with the years, months and key characters, the latter corresponding with those on the day-of-the-month strip whereby to indicate the adjustment of the last-named strip with reference to the fixed indicator.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOHN ALBERT CHEAPE.
