DEVICE FOR PREVENTING HOLDING THE HEAD TOO LOW IN READING AND WRITING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 17, 1906.
Application filed April 17,1906. Serial No. 312,106.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ERNST FIOHTLER, a citizen ofthe German Empire, and a resident of Stade, Province of Hanover, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Devices for Preventing Holding the Head Too Low in Reading and Writing, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device which prevents the head from being held too low when reading, and unlike well-known similar devices is an apparatus which does not require any special table, desk, or the like, but can be put up anywhere without special preparation. The apparatus according to this invention is not intended to be screwed to a table and to form a support for the head of the child, but, on the contrary, to slide when the child puts its head on itfrom laziness.
apparatus according to this invention example in the accompanying drawings.
Figure l is a front elevation of the device. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 shows the device drawn out for writing purposes.
The device is preferablymade of thin wire, so as not to'limit the field of vision of the child and not to distract his attention. To the upper edge of the book cis secured, by means ofa spring-clip e, the support I) of the frame a a a a a a. This support extends rearwardly from the frame and is stiffened at the place where the wires start toward the corners of the frame by a bridge f. The lower edge of the book 0 rests on the parts a a of the frame. In order to enable the said device to be used for writing, the frame must be considerably wider. Sufficient space must be left for the l right arm of the child. It is, however, inconvenient to make the frame of a large size, as it would not be easy to store or to lock it up. For that purpose the flame is made of two telescopic or slidingly-adjustable parts a a a and a a a so that it can be pulled out. For that purpose it is also necessary to have three sleeves d d (i Fig. 3, one of which, d, is secured to the frame part a", while d is secured to frame part a and d is secured to frame part a. In this way the section a a a is slidable over frame-section a a w, the sleeves d d d constituting guides and stops.
What I claim is 1. A head-guard for books, comprising a frame, a support extending rearwardly therefrom, and a clasp for securing said support to a book, substantially as specified.
2. A head-guard for books, comprising two slidably-connected frame-sections, a support extending rearwardly therefrom, and means for securing said support to a book, substantially as specified.
3. A head-guard for books, comprising a frame adapted to engage a book, a support extending rearwardly therefrom, and means for securing the support to a book, substantially as specified.
4. A head-guard for books, composed of two slidably-connected frame-sections, and a clasp for securing said frame-sections to a book, substantially as specified.
