IMPROVEMENT IN HAND-STAMPS.
The Schedule referredto in these Letters lPatent and making part o the same.
county of Rutland, and State of Vermont, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Hand- Stamps; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full7 clear, and exact description of `the operation and construction of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side view of the stamp prepared for use.
Figure 2, an end view, showing the face with which the impression is made.
Figure 3, a section through the type-wheels and casing on au enlarged scale.
Figui-e4, the rkey for turning the type-wheels.
Figures '5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, other parts shown separately.
This invention consists inthe peculiar construction and arrangement of' a series of type-wheels with a view to post-markingletters, papers, Snc., sho win the month, day, hour, and place of 'mailing or stamping.
The typewheels, made of suitable metal, are so constructed that the letters or figures are raised upon the outer edge or periphery, which is wider than the general thickness of the wheels, the interior of the Wheels being hollowed out, so as to allow the operation ofthe spring-catch s, one end of which is attached to the'inne'r surface of the case A, and the other catches in'n'otches: in tl1e-inner edge of the ange ofthe type- Wheels, as shown in fig. 5, the dotted lines indicating the position of the spring s.
Referring to iig.A 3, a., b, c, and (l, are the type-wheels or disks; A A,tlie outer casing; s s s, the springcatches; and t t, the plate, to which are attached the springs s s, which regulate the type-wheels b and c.
The plate t t is more fully shown in iig. 48, where e is a projection, placed so as'to fit into the ,loop w, to hold the plate in position. Fig. 9 shows the interior of the case A.
The reverse side of the type-wheela is shown at Iig. 6, lig.' 5 showingthe hollow side of the same.
The type-wheels are operated by the key shown in fig. 6, having a larger and smaller end to lit the keytuds k k and h h.
The small type-Wheel e is constructed in the same manner as the larger wheels, the catch-spring regulating it being attached to the inside of the cap P P.
This small A. M. and I. M. wheel may be dispensed with by combining it with the Wheel d, if desired, or placing the letters jon wheel (l, the samebeing made wider for that purpose.
The cancelling-stamp m is attached to the cap P, and can be used at the time of stamping.
The reverse side of the stamp is the same as shown in iig. l, with the exception 0f the small key-stud h. y The place 0I" mailing is placed on the face of the stamp, in raised letters, as shown in iig. 2.
As will he seen in iig. 3, the type-wheels a and d are turned or adjusted by the larger key-stud l: k, and the wheels l) and c by the smaller key-stud h h.
When thetype-wheel is brought into the proper position, so that the -letters or figures to be stamped upon the document are brought .to the face of the stamp, the spring-catch s, acting as a pawl, holds the wheel in position until it is desired to change the date or hour.
By this method of constructing the type-wheels, and regulating and adjusting them by a double key and spring-catch or pawl, the stamps may be made lighter than usual, and a greater variety of letters and figures placed upon them.
Having thus described our invention,
What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The spring-catch s, in combination withrthe recessed type-wheel andcap A or'plate t, constructedand opemting substantially as and for the purposesl set forth. p
2. The arrangement and combination of the Wheels a, b, c, Il, and 0plate t t, springs sss, cap P, and case A, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
