Description
* UNITED. STATE SAMUEL .BACHARAOH', or BROOKLYN, NEW
Patented February 16, 1904.
YORK.
PFEN-HOLDER-IGUIVDY'E.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 752,432, dated February 16, 1904.
Application filed AugustZQ, 1903.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL BAGHARAGH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the State of New York, have invented anew and useful Penholder-Guide, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is an improved guide for a penholder or pencil, the object being to provide a cheap and simple device which can be applied to the forefinger of the hand and which will hold the pen or pencil in an easy position during the operation of writing and will relieve the fingers of considerable strain, thereby preventing the hand becoming cramped from continuous writing; and with these objects in view the invention consists of a ring having alateral projection at one side adapted to contact with the second finger, and a 'lateral projection substantially opposite the firstnamed projection and against which the upper portion of the pen-stock is adapted to rest.
The invention consists also in certain details of construction and novelties of combination, all of which will be fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective viewshoW- ing the practical application of my invention. Fig. 2 is a detail view showing the position the parts assume when the device is in use. Fig. 3 is a view showing the manner in which the inner projection contacts with the second finger. Fig. 4: is a detail perspective View of the device disconnected from the hand. Fig. 5 is an edge view of the device. Fig. 6 is a detail view showing the manner of connecting the outer projection to the ring.
In carrying out my invention I employ a ring A, which is of a size to fit snuglyupon the forefinger and is provided with two radially-extending projections B and C. These pro ections are on'oppositesides of the ring at a point below the'center, whereby they are closer together around the under portion of the ring when in position for use than around the upper portion. The projection B, or what I shall call the inner projection, because it is upon what I shall call the inner side of the ring, is adapted to engage with the under side Serial No. 171,290. (No model.)
of the second finger and prevent the ring from turning, and the other projection, C, which I shall call the outer projection, is located on whatI shall call the outer side of the ring and in position to support the pen-stock and hold it at its proper inclination. The projection 0 comprises two diverging members() and ashank C, which may be pivotally secured to the ring so as to permit the projection to swivel or adjust itself to the movements or variations in the inclination of the stock in writing. The outer ends of the members C may be curved inward, as shown at C to give a broader bearing-surface and also to give them a neater appearance and to prevent them catching, as upon the clothing. The members are preferably arranged to stand at an angle to the plane of the ring, as shown in Fig. 5, which will present-the full flat face of the projection for the engagement and support of the pen-stock. The two projections are fixedlysecured relatively to each other, so that after the ring has been placed on the finger and the inner projection placed in engagement with the second finger the outer projection will stand in the right place to hold the pen-stock in the correct position.
In operation the ring is placed upon the finger so that the inner projection B will bear against the under side of the second finger, and when the pen-stock or pencil is grasped between the thumb and forefinger the pen-stock or pencil will rest comfortably and easily upon the outer projection C, and the writing operation can then be carried on for an indefinite period without cramping or tiring the hand.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A device of the kind described comprising a ring having a projection adapted to engage the second finger. and a second projection upon which the pen-stock or pencil is adapted to rest, said projections being fixedly held at less than a half-circle from each other around the under side of the ring, as set forth.
2. A penholder guide comprising a ring having a projection fixed thereto, and a second flatprojection pivotally connected thereto, said second projection comprising a pivotal shank, and diverging membersbent toward each other, as shown.
3. A penholder-guide comprising a ring and two radially-arranged projections upon opposite sides thereof but fixedly held at less than a half-circle from each other, one of the projections being flat and arranged to normally stand at an angle to the plane of the ring to support the pen-stock when in use and the 1 other one being in position to engage with the under side of the finger adjacent the ring-finger as set forth. I
SAMUEL BACHARACH.
