GEORGE REX DIXON, OF ROCKY MOUNT, NORTII CAROLINA.
LAUNDRY-INDICATOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 9, 1907.
Application filed February 8, 1907. Serial No. 356,474.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE REX DIXON, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at Rocky Mount, in the county ot Nash and State ot' North Carolina, have invented a new and useful Laundry-Indicator; and I do hereby declare the following to be a iull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The invention relates to laundry indicators, and has ier its object to provide a simple7 and accurate device v oi' this character which will indicate in an instant, the
number oi' collars, cutis, shirts and dresses or the like that have been sent to the laundry.
A further object is to provide a device of this charactor, having an aperture, adapted to be engaged by a bent portion oi the hand.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in thel novel construction and arrangement hereinafter described and shown, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims. i
In the drawings, Figure l is a plan view ot a laundry chart constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view oi' one oi the fields. FigA 3 is a longitudinal sectional view through the hand.
Referring to the drawings, I designates the fields oi' a laundry chart which ina-y, it' desired, have any number of said fields in each oi which is mounted a rotary hand 2L. Each of these iields or squares has the name ol' some article written above such as collars, cutis and the like7 and the hand is turned to indicate the number oi such ol' these articles as have been sent to the laundry. This hand comprises two parts, a pivoted portion and an adjustable portion which will be presently described. Each Iield or square has marked thereon,
numbers [rom l to 19. Adjacent to each number is an aperture 3L as indicated by numerals in Fig. 2 of the drawings.
The adjustable portion ift oi the hand is provided at one end with a downwardly projecting point 6, while its other end is provided with ilexible flanges forming a sleeve 5., that is, when the said flanges are bent around the pivoted portion 7 l ol the hand; this construction is i'or the purpose oi' allowing the portion 4 to be extended so as to allow the downwardly projecting portion (in to engage the apertures 3 oi the squares or fields, which apertures, are not oi` the same distance from the pivot oi' the hand as will be clearly understood l'rom the drawings; the exact numeral can be indicated and the liability ot' having the hand accidentally rota-ted, is reduced to a minimum. The outer end ot' the pivotal portion 7 l is bent upwardly as at 7b to limit the outward movement ot the portion 4f.
What I claim is;
A laundry indicator, comprising, a chart composed ot outlined squares or ields having numbers on their faces, said squares having; apertures adjacent the numbers. :i hand pivoted in the center of each square, said hand comprising two parts, the pivotcd portion and the adjustable portion, the pivoted portion having at one of its free ends a bent portion, the adjustable portion having at one end a downwardljv projectingv point to engage the apertures, while at its other end. it is provided with a sleeve composed ot flexible anges to engage the pivoted portion of the hand, the said adjustable portion beinglimited in its movement by the bent portion of the pivoted portion of the hund.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this speciiicution in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE REX DIXON.
