I INVENTOR GEORGE H. TRUE WITNESSES; g 1
BY my 55 HIS ATTORNEY TTTNITED STATES OFFICE.
GEORGE H. TRUE, OF EAST OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA.
SCHOOL-DESK AND LIKE ATTACHMENT.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE H. TRUE, citizen of United States, residing at East Oakland, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented new and useful Im rovements in School-Desk and Like Attac iments, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an appliance to be attached to school and other writing-desks and tables for conveniently holding rulers, pens, pencils, erasers, and other articles such as are generally used by scholars, clerks, or accountants.
It consists of a sheet metal blank stamped to conform to the general outline of the desk, and having outwardlyprojecting ledges forming troughs at top and bottom; the sheet having also segmental slots cut in lines between the upper and lower troughs, and the unse arated portion of the tongues thus cut out eing bent outwardly to form supports for different articles.
It also comprises details of construction which will be more fully explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in Which Figure 1 is a pers ective view showing the attachment as app ied. Fig. 2 is a detailed view of the blank. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the attachment. Fig. 4 is an end elevation.
This invention is designed to provide a cheap and effective attachment for school and other desks or tables.
In the formation of my attachment, I first stamp out blanks of sheet metal, which may be about 24 gage, more or less. The upper and the rear edges of the blank meet at an obtuse angle. The front of the up er edge is cut away, and from this ortion the blank is curved forwardly and ownwardly in a somewhat parabolic form, and at the lower end is a convex curve meeting a corresponding convex curve from the lower end of the rear straight edge. The blanks being stamped in this form are then placed in dies, and the sheet A has its upper ortion turned outwardly substantially at rig t angles with the main portion of the sheet as shown at 2, and the outer edge has a narrow upturned Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed January 14, 1909.
Patented July 27, 1909.
Serial No. 472,154.
the front toward the rear, and the manner of cutting the sheet causes the rear ed e of the trough to stand substantially para lel with the rear straight edge of the plate,while the front edge of this upturned portion is curved as shown at 6. The portion intervening between the lower part of the plate A and the outer upturned portion is a trough which is suflicient to contain any short articles which may be useful about the desk. The upper trough is intended to contain rulers or longer articles.
In forming the sheet, the se mental cuts having been made as previous y described, the die bends the tongues thus formed outwardly and upwardly, as shown at 7. These tongues are formed in lines approximately parallel with the upper trough shape extension, and being upturned as shown, form a secure holder for pencils, pens and like articles, which may be readily laid into these upturned tongues, or removed therefrom.
The device may be attached to the side of the desk which is usually in the form of an iron casting, by making holes through the plate A, one near the up er front portion, and the other at a suitab e point above the line of the lower trough. Screw 8 may pass through these holes and suitable blocks 9 are fitted to rest against the inside of the desk frame, and the screws being turned so as to screw into the block, the plate will be firmly clamped against the desk frame, between the portion 3. This portion contacts against the l formed outwardly and upwardly in substantially parallel lines, and a means for securing my hand in presence of two subscribing wi tsaid device to the desk frame, said llneans 111- nesses.
