PEROY STERNAU, OF LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO GEORGE H. BROOKS, OF LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY.
STAM P-HOLDING BOX.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 4, 1906.
Application filed August 24.1905. Serial No. 275,612.
To rI/Z/ whmn, it mm1/y concern:
Be it known that I, Pliner STERNAU, a citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented a new and useful Stamp-Holding BOX, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to means for holding printing-stamps and the like.
The principal object is to provide a box or holder wherein the stamps will be supported directly on the inking-pad, will thus be kept moistened and soft, and will be ready for immediate application to the articles to be stamped upon the removal of said stamps from the box or holder.
Two embodiments of the invention are disclosed in this application; but an inspection of the appended claims will make it clear that said invention is not limited solely to the structures set forth.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the invention that is at present considered preferable, Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view therethrough with the cover closed. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the tray removed. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a slightly-modiiied form of construction.
Similar reference-numerals designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings,
In the embodiment illustrated in the first three 'figures a stamp-holding box is employed, comprising a rectangular body 5, having a bottom and a cover 7, preferably hinged thereto, as shown at 8, and having means- 11s, for instance, a hook and eye 9 and 10for securing the cover in closed position upon the body.
Located in the lower portion of the body and preferably detachable therefrom is an inking-pad 11, which may be of any desirable vabsorbent material, said pad being located on a base 12, that rests upon the bottom 6. A tray is detachably fitted Within the body 5 and consists of side walls 13 and longitudinally-disposed partitions 14, said partitions thus dividing the interior of the body into a plurality of stamp-receiving compartments. This tray may be provided with a bottom 15, of fabric or other material permeable to the ink, said bottom being secured to the side walls by strips 16 and constituting, in effect, the top of the pad. If desired, this bottom may be dispensed with entirely.
From the above it will be apparent that stamps or stencils, as 17, placed in the compartments between the partitions, will rest upon the pad, will therefore be kept in moistened and soft condition, and when said stamps or stencils are removed from the box they will be in condition for immediate use. This structure therefore constitutes a laborsaving device, as it eliminates the necessity of detaching the stamps from the holders and applying the same to a pad before they can be used. To reink the pad, it is only necessary to remove the tray, whereupon the bottom 15 will support the stamps in the box, so that all will be carried by the tray, leaving the body of the pad exposed. There is therefore a distinct advantage in the employment of the bottom 15 but, as already stated, the bottom may be dispensed with, in which case the stamps must be removed separately from the tray.
A cross-sectional view of a slight modiiieation of the structure is illustrated in Fig. 4. In this case the body of thc bonr is designated 5, and the bottom 6LL is hinged thereto, as shown at 7, said bottom being provided with a pad S. Partitions 9, located in the body, form stamp-receiving compartments. The body 5 can bc provided with a fabric or other permeable bottom 10, constituting a top for the pad when the bottom 6l of the box is closed. A cover 11L is hinged, as shown at 12, to the upper portion of the body and constitutes a closure 'for the boX. In this structure the inking of the pad requires only the opening of the bottom 6 and does not necessitate the removal of the stamps lfrom the box.
It will thus be understood that asimple novel holder is provided wherein the stamps are supported directly on the inking means, so that they will be kept moistened and will be ready for use when removed from the box. The structure is simple, can be cheaply manufactured, and, moreover, can be made substantially dustproof.
From the foregoing it is thought that the construction, operation, and many advantages of the herein-described invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without further description, and it will be understood that various changes in the size, shape,
v having an inking-pad in its bottom, stampgniles located over the pad and supp ortedy by sai 2. A stamp-holding boX having an inkingpad in its lower portion, and a stamp-receiving tray located in the boX and supported upon and by the pad, said tray maintaining the stamps in engagement with the pad.
3. A stamp-holding box having an inkingpad in its lower portion, and a stamp-receiving tray located in the box and having a partition resting on the pad and forming stamp- K receiving compartments, the inking-pad conpad in the body, and a cover for the l body. l
stituting the bottom of said compartments.
4. A receptacle having side walls, and a bottom, an ink-pad located on the bottom, and a stam-holding tray located in the receptacle an having a bottom permeable to ink and resting on the top ofthe pad.
5. A receptacle having side walls, and a bottom, an ink-pad located on the bottom and terminating short of the side walls, and a stamp-holding tray located in the receptacle and having a bottom permeable to ink and restin on the top of the pad, said tray having si e Walls, the lower portions of which eX- tend between the lower ends of the pad and the receptacle-walls.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto aliXed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
