PATENT OFFICE.
PENCIL-SHARPENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 759,499, dated May 10, 1904.
Application filed July 16, 1903. Serial No. 165,846. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, H ERMAN H. BRANDES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Corydon, in the county of Henderson and State of Kentucky, have invented a new and useful Pencil-Sharpener, of which the followingis a specification.
The invention relates to a pencil-sharpener for tablets.
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of pencil-sharpeners and to provide a simple and inexpensive construction adapted to be readily applied to a tablet and capable of being secured to the same by the fastening devices which bind the leaves of the tablet together.
A further object of the invention is to provide a pencil-sharpener capable of enabling a pencil to be quickly and accurately sharpened and adapted to permit the shavings of a pencil to be readily removed from it.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details of construction within the scope of the claims may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacri ficing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a tablet provided with a pencil-sharpener constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken transversely of the binding of the tablet. Fig. 3 is a similar view taken transversely of the pencil-sharpener. Fig. 4 is a similar view taken longitudinally of the pencil-sharpener. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the penoil-sharpener.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
1 designates a pencil-sharpener constructed of steel and extendinglongitudinally of the top or binding 3 of a tablet 4:; but instead of arranging the pencil-sharpener at the top of the tablet it may be located at any other desired point on the binding. The blade is designed to be approximately the width of the binding; but it may be of any desired size, and it extends inward from the outer edge of the tablet and is provided with an inner longitudinal cutting edge 6, which is turned outwardly or upwardly slightly in order to engage readily a lead-pencil. The blade or cutter is perforated at its ends for the reception of suitable fastening devices 7, which extend entirely through the binding of the tablet and constitute the binding fastening devices thereof. The pencil-sharpener is provided near its ends with transverse ribs 8, formed by grooving or bending the material from the inner or lower face thereof and providing upwardly or outwardly extending portions at the terminals of the cutting edge of the pencil-sharpener. The cutting edge of the pencil-sharpener between the transverse ribs is adapted to engage the lower side of a pencil, which may be drawn across the pencil-sharpener from one end of the cutting edge to the other, and the ribs, which form upwardly-extending portions, are adapted to cut the pencil at the point or outer end, substantially half around the same. The ribs are especially adapted for shaping the pointof a pencil, and it will enable the same to be quickly and accurately cut. In sharpening the point of a pencil the latter is placed at one end of the cutting edge against the rib, which will form a support for the penoil and extend partially around the same. The rib will prevent the pencil from accidentally slipping, and there will be noliability of accidentally breaking the point from such cause. The central portion of the pencil-sharpener [its against the tablet, and the outer edge preferably extends upward or outward slightly beyond the same, and any pencil-shavings may be quickly removed from beneath the pencilsharpener by blowing the same therefrom.
Any suitable devices may be employed for securing the pencil-sharpener to the tablet and for binding the leaves thereof together, and the said tablet is also provided at the binding with elastic loops 9, which are secured to the tablet by the fastening devices 10 of the binding'. The fastening devices 10 are spaced from the fastening devices 7, and by this construc= tion the leaves of the tablet are firmly bound together. The elastic bands consist of strips of elastic material arranged as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawings; The oops are adapted to receive the pencil, as shown in Fig. 1, and they hold the pencil in convenient position for instant use.
It will be seen that the pencil-sharpener is simple and inexpensive in construction and that it is secured to a tablet by the fastening devices of the binding thereof. It will also be clear that the pencil-sharpener is adapted to be applied to note-books and all other forms of blank books.
Having thus fully described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A pencil-sharpener for tablets consisting of a blade having a longitudinal cutting edge and provided at the ends thereof with ribs having upwardly or outwardly extending cutting portions, substantially as described.
2. A pencil-sharpener for tablets comprisinga blade having a longitudinal cutting edge, and grooved at the ends thereof to form outwardly-extending ribs and forming projecting cutting portions, substantially as described.
3. A tablet provided with a pencil-sharpener having an inner outturned longitudinal cutting edge and grooved at the inner face to provide transverse ribs and forming outwardlyextending cutting portions, the central portion of the pencil-sharpener being arranged against the tablet, substantially as described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
HERMAN H. BRANDES.
