v Speccation of Letters Patent.'
` Application filed July 22, 1905. Serial No. 270,821.
. Patented Dec. 5, 1905.
`To all whom4 it may concern:
Be 'it (known that I, ALWIN E. ANDREE, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Lake Linden, in the county of I-Ioughton and State of VMichigan, have invented new andl useful Improvements inv Stencil- Holders, of which the following is a specification.` i
' This invention relates to means for securing decorative stencils to walls or ceilings.
A decorator or painter when putting a stencil on the wall, and especially on the ceiling, must either employa helper or personally tack his' stencil in place.
The former method is expensive and the latter in convenient,be-
cause of the difiiculty in holding the stencil and tack and driving the tack at the same time. Furthermore, the ordinary -method of tacking is objectionable, as `the wall or ceiling is frequently soiled by the fingers holding the vtack and the tacks are constantly displaced from the fingers in driving andl re-.
moving them and drop upon the floor.
. 1 The object of the presentinvention is to' provide simple and effective means vfor holding, the tacks or fastenings upon the stencil, so that they can be conveniently driven into the wall or ceiling to secure thestencil thereto and as conveniently withdrawn to detach the stencil without becoming unfastened from the latter. 1
The preferred embodiment of the` invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawin s, in which- Y i ure 1 is a longitudinal section through the evice applied to av stencil. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the device detached, and Fig. 3 -is a cross-'sectional view taken on line 3 3 of Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 1, showing a modified construction of holding device. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the form of holding device shown vin Fig. 4. Fig. 6l is aY cross-section taken on line 6 6 of Fig. 5.
'In carrying my invention into practice I provide a holding device `1, comprising a comparatively long ,and narrow strip of sheet metal bent orfolded upon itself to forma body portion 2 and a clamping portion 3',the
main body and clamping portion being 1ntev ofrally connected at one end 'and' spaced toform a clasp to receive and engage the edge of the stencil 4. Thebody portion 2 isbent or offset at its free end to form a holding-arm 5, which lies on a plane beyond the same and parallel therewith and with the clamV ing portion 3. The arm 5 is 'provided Wit an vented from dropping on the floor.
opening 6 for the passage of the shank of the tack or fastening 7, which is adapted to eX- tend through the stencil 4 for insertion into the wall or ceiling to hold the contiguousportion of the stencil in place. The free end of tongue 8, which 1s integrally connected at its inner end tosaid arm immediately in rear of the opening 6 and is-adapted to engage and lie in the path of the head of the tack 7 to disconnection, so that the tack when once applied will constitute a permanent fixture and may be repeatedly used for securing the stencil in place. In theoperation of applying the tack the tongue 8 is bent back to permit the tack to be inserted in the opening 6, after'which the tongue is bent down on the arm again tohold the tack in applied position. The tack is thus applied and forced through the stencil for use after the holding device has-been slipped onto an edge of the stencil, as will be readily understood.
' The stencil is provided with one or more of the holders, and in applying the same to a Wall or ceiling it Will be seen that it is simply necessary'to hold the s`ten'cil in lace and to 'strike the tongue 6 over the hea of the tack `with, a hammer, whereupon the tack will be driven into the wall or ceiling to secure the stencil thereto. As the tack is held upon the stencil, the necessity of the operator holding the same is obviated, thus enabling the stencil to be applied more lconveniently and Without liability of the fingers of the operator coming in contact with and soiling the Wall or ceiling. To detach the tack, it is Wall or ceiling. InY this operation also the tack Will be held by the holder 1 and pre- .In the modified embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. 4, 5, and 6 the body portion 9 of the holding device is rovided with an oset holding-arm 10 an is longitudinally slitted to form oppositely disposed spring clamping-arms 11 to hold the stencil against said body portion, the latter thus forming a clasp to secure the arm 10 to the stencil, andthe arm 1 0 is provided with integral spring-fingers 12 ,projecting inwardly on the under side thereof from its free end, Said lingers being spaced to form a throat or passage for the reception of the fastening 7, the,
the arm 5 is longitudinally slitted to form ahold the same fromv outward movement and i vIoo I'ro
head f which is adapted to lie between said spring-fingers and the body of the arm 10. The mode of use of this form of the invention will be readily understood from the drawings.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and mode of operation of the device will be readily understood by those versed in the art and its manifold advantages appreciated.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim isH 1. A fastening for stencils comprising a strip of sheet metal bent to form a body portion having a holding-arm formed with an opening, a fastening inserted in said opening, and a spring-tongue upon the arm to hold the fastening.
2. A fastening for stencils comprising a spring-clasp having an opening to receive a fastening member and a spring-tongue to hold said member in applied position.
3. A stencil-holder comprising a resilient strip offmetal bent to form a clasp to engage the edge of the stencil, and a holding-arm projecting beyond the clasp, said holdingarm being provided with means for retaining a tack or similar fastening.
4. A stencil-holder comprising a resilient metallic strip folded at one end upon itself to form a spring-clasp to engage the edge of the stencil and having its opposite end extended to form an arm, said arm being provided with means for attaching a fastening element thereto.
5. A stencil-holder comprising a strip of spring metal bent to fold at one end upon itself to form a spring-clasp to engage the edge of a stencil and having its opposite end extended and offset to form an arm provided with means for detachably connecting a tack or similar fastening thereto.
6. A stencil-holder comprising a resilient metallic strip folded at one end to form a clasp and having its opposite end extended to form an arm, said arm being provided with a spring member to retain a tack or similar fastening in engagement therewith.
7. A stencil-holder comprising a resilient strip of metal bent at one end to form a clasp to engage the edge of a stencil and having its opposite end projecting beyond the clasp to form an arm offset from the plane of the clasp, said arm having a portion bent to forni a tack-retaining tongue.
S. A stencil-holder comprising a resilient strip of metal bent at one end to form a clasp and having its opposite end extended in an offset to form an arm, said arm having a tackreceiving opening therein, and a spring-clasp to retain the tack therein.
In testimony whereof I aHiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALIN E. ANDREE.
