SETRAK Gr. EGHIAN, OF OGDEN, UTAH.
BOOK-HOLDER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SETRAK G. EGHIAN, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Ogden, in the county of Weber, State of Utah, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Book-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a holder which may be produced in artistic form from a single piece of fiat metal and which will hold a book securely in open position. The holder is adaptable especially to large and heavy volumes.
In the drawingsFigure 1 is a perspective view of the holder, and Fig. 2 a view of the same with a book in position.
The holder is formed preferably from a single piece of stifi' sheet-metal and consists of the two principal members 1 bent on the line 2, substantially at right angles to each other, although this angle may be considerably varied. The edges of the members 1 are formed with deep concave curves 3, to accommodate the lower edges of the book covers. The curvature of the back 4 accommodates the book back and wings or rests 5 bent at a divergent angle to the side members support the upper parts of the book covers. At the front of the holder, members 1 are upwardly curved and terminate in elliptical portions or fingers 6 twisted at an angle to the side members so as to come in front of and lie against the leaves of the book. The wings 5 and the fingers 6 thus form rests for the book.
The manner in which the book is placed in the holder and held by it will be obvious from the foregoing description and inspection of the drawing.
In some cases strips 7 may be provided connecting with the side members 1 at approximately the bottom of curved portions 3. These strips are bent to a horizontal position and may be connected by rivet 8. When these strips are provided the edges of the book covers rest upon them so that the book is securely supported without danger of cutting the covers which might occur if they rested simply on the edges of the side members. This connection of strips 7 also forms a brace which retains the side members of the holder in proper relation. At the bottom the side members may be flanged Specification of Letters Patent.
