ROTARY BLOTTER FOR PENHOLDERS.

'orm a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and useful .improvements in rotatable blotters for penholders, etc., and comprises various details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts which will be hereinatter fully described and then specitica-lly defined in the appended claim.

I illustrate my invention in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a verticall sectional view through tile device shown as applied to the end of a penholder, Fig. Q is a` detail view of the tubular sections upon which the blot/3Y ter is adapted to be held, and Figs. 3, 4 and 5 are detail sectional views of modilications of the invention.

Reference n ow being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates a hollow tube having a shoulder B about the same near one end which is threaded atv C for the reception of a threaded cap E. When said cap is mounted upon the threaded'end of the tube, the outer circumference of the tube will be flush. A cylindrical blotter, designated by letter F, is adapted to telescope over the. shell or tube A, after which the cap is Screwed in place in the manner shown in Fig. l of the drawings, said shoulder B and the flange of the ap cooperating to hold the blotter from movingA Specification of Letters Patent.

longitudinally. rlhe open end of the tube is adapted to be slipped over the end of a pcnholder or pencil or any other object toi-mino' a holder therefor.

In l ig. 3 I have shown a slight modification ot my invention in which the tube has lone end swelled, as at H, and its other end crimped, as at H', forming means for holding` the hlotter in place.

ln Fig. #t l have shown the tube having crimped ends l( serving the same urpose, while in Fig'. 5 I have shown two te escope tul c; designated respectively by letters and N', the t'ormer of which has a crimped end while the latter has a swelled portion cooperating to hold the blotter in place.

From the foregoing, it will be noted that, by the provision ot a rotary blotter as shown and described, a simple and elticient means is a [loi-ded which may be eaSil and quickly applied to a pencil or penholt er and torming a convenient means for ready use.

What we claim to be new is In combination .with a hollow tubular Ishell having the opening in one end outwardly flaring and provided with a circuirr i'crential beading adjacent to said flaring end, .said Haring end adapted to conform to and receive the tapering end of a penholder, a cap having a cylindrical shank portion tilted to said shell :5nd forming with the circumference of the latter a bearing surt'ace, a hollow cylindrical blotter mounted upon .said bearing surface and held against longitudinal movement by said beading and tlange of the cap.

In testimony whereof we hereunto atlix our signature in the presence of two Witv ncsses.
