Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Application led April 27, 1909. Serial No. 492,510.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN BAUM, Jr., citizen of the ,United States, residing at East Liverpool, in the county of Columbiana and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sectional Liners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to drafting implements and more particularly to a gage for properly spacing the section lines on a drawing.
The object of the invention is to provide al section liner including a gage adapted to enter a seating recess in a triangle or similar drafting instrument for controlling the sliding movement of said triangle, thereby to enable the draftsinan to properly space the section lines and draw the saine in parallel relation to each other.
A further object is to provide a gage including a body portion having a guiding groove formed therein for the reception of a sliding rule, the latter being graduated to inches and fractions thereof and provided with a terminal head for limiting the sliding movement of the triangle.
A further object is to provide a gage capable of being used with equally good results for drawing either oblique or vertically disposed section lines.
A still further object of the invention is generally to improve this class of devices s as to increase their utility, durability and efciency.
Further objects and advantages will appear in the following description, it being understood that various changes in form, proportions and minor details of construction may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claims.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof, and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction and the means for effecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a plan view of a section liner or gage constructed in accordance with my invention, showing the same in position on a triangle, the head of the rule being shown retracted to permit rearward sliding movement of the triangle. Fig. 2 is a similar' view showing the head of the rule in engagement with the adjacent wall of the slot in the triangle and the latter in position for drawing a section line. Fig. 3 is a plan view showing the position of the gage when the latter is used for making vertical section lines. Fig. 4 isa longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 4 4 of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the gage with the sliding rule detached. Fig. 6 is a plan view of one side of the sliding rule. Fig. 7 is a similar' view looking at the other side of the rule.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following specification and accompanying drawings by the same reference characters.
The improved section liner or gage forming the subject-matter of the resent invention is principally designed fiir use on triangles and similar drafting instruments and by way of illustration is shown in position on a triangle 5 having its body portion formed with intersecting slots or recesses 6 and 7 The device comprises a body portion 8 adapted to fit in either the recess 6 or 7 and provided with a longitudinally disposed guiding groove 9 for the reception of a sliding rule l0. Extending transversely across the body portion 8 and secured in any suitable manner to the flanges 11 of said body portion is a metal plate 12 having its central portion provided with a threaded boss 13 which receives a correspondingly threaded adjusting screw 14. The free end of the screw 14 entends through the boss 13 and is adapted to bear against the adjacent face of the rule for securing the latter in adjusted position. One side of the rule 10 is provided with a plurality of scales 15 and 16, the scale 15 being graduated to inches and fractions thereof so as to enable the operator to draw obliquely disposed section lines with a forty-five degree triangle, and the lower scale 16 being also graduated and designed to be used in connection with the triangle when the latter is employed for making vertical section lines. The opposite face of the rule is also graduated to form spaced scales 17 and 18, one of which is graduated for use with a sixty degree triangle and the other for a thirty degree triangle. @ne end of the rule 10 is rovided with a terminal head 19 having a p urality of angularly disposed faces 20 corresponding to thirty, forty-five and sixty degrees, respectively, so that the gage may be used in connection with dierent styles of triangles.
Patented Mar. 8, 1910.
' with triangles of such a character. The rear ends of the anges 11 are preferably inclined or beveled ath22 andare adapted to abut against the wall of the triangle at the juncture of the intersecting slots 6 and 7, so as to space the angular face of the head 19 from the adjacent inclined wall 21 of the y slot 6 and thus permit the triangle to be moved rearwardly on the blade 23 of a T- square the distance between the angular face of the head 19 and said inclined wall 21, thereby to properly space the section lines and enable the operator to draw the same in spaced parallel relation to each other.
In using'the device, the gage is positioned in either the recess 6 or 7 of the triangle and the rule 10 moved longitudinally until the head 19 of the rule bears against the adjacentv inclined face 21 of said recess. The operator then loosens the screw 14 and slides the body portion 8 laterally until the terminals 22 of the flanges register with the proper graduations on the rule 10 corresponding to the desired width of the section line, after which the clamping screw 14 is rotated to lockV the parts in adjusted position. vWith the parts thus adjusted as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, the draftsman is' enabled to draw an oblique section line along the inclined edge of the triangle in the usual manner. The operator then places his thumb on the triangle below the gage with his first and second ngers disposed on opposite sides of the uclamping screw 14, and moves the gage bodily and longitudinally within the recess 6 until the terminals 22 of the flanges 11 abut against the rear wall ofthe slot and in which position the head of the rule will be spaced from the forward inclined wall 21 of the slot 6 so that a rearwardmovement imparted to the triangle 5 will cause the latter to move the distance between the head 19 and wall 21, and thus properly position the active edge of the triangle to permit the draftsman to draw a second section line in spaced parallel relation to the first line, this operation being repeated until all of the section lines are formed. In order to draw vertical section lines, the triangle is reversed, as is best shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing and the operation before described repeated.
While the gage is shown and described in connection with a T-square it will of course be understood that the same may be used in connection with any other drafting instrunient employed for section lining drawings, withoutdeparting from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. The combination with a triangle having intersecting recesses formed therein, the end walls of which are inclined, and a gage slidably mounted in one of said recesses and provided with a head having a plurality of angular faces, one of which is adapted to bear against the inclined wall of the adjacent recess.
