for corrections, transfer or distribution, thus preventing the spilling of tne type.
In t e accompanying drawings forming part of ths specification, Fgure l is a per- .spectve VleW of my nventon showing a line To ali' whom it, may concem:
Be it known that I, "WILLIAM A. Sono, a citizen of the United States, residing at the county of Ramsay and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and usetul Improvement in Line Unit- Cases for I oI typeset up in the unit case; Fig. 2 is a ?writing-Machines, of which the following longitudinal central section in elevation of a s a specficaton. detail portion of the unit case showin the My nvention' relates to improvcnents in line cases for holding type in printing na chines and has for its' primary object a simple and nexpensive device which permits of re-adjustnent of the type.
he primary advantages obtained by the use of my invention are as follows:-A uniform pressure is applied upon the entire line when it is locked, so that there is o tendency for the spacers or justifiers used type therein and Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional View of the line case withthe type therein.
In the drawings A represents the line unit case which is composed of a pair of parallel and vertical plates 2 and 3 forming sides which sides spaced apart.
B represents the type each of which is formed with a shank 6 and a pair of shoulclers? and 8 at the upper end of said shank. The width of the shank is nearly equal to the distance between the sides 2 and 3 of the line case while the width of each type including the shoulders 7 and 8 corresponds with the width of the line case including the sides. Preferablythe shank depends slightly below the lower` edges of the sides when the type is placed in the line case causing the type the printing machine when the line case is s possible by means of my invention 'to leave the type loose in the line case o that more perfect' .imitation. of type-writing may be obtained and it is also possible by means of this Construction to hold the type in their relative position and still allow them. to .have some movement. With the use ot' the line unit case any portion, of the letter may be rearranged, changed and corrccted without distributing the whole form, thus to stand upon the bed of u and the type hang the case s`o verse play therein when locked up.
' enibodim ent thereo i freely within the spaee between theni. Atter the line case has been filled with ty'pe including justiers as desired,4the set screw' is turned down ti'ghtly i against the type thus looking it in the case. Preferably the type is adjusted loosely in that the type has linitedtrans- By this Construction more perfect imitation of type writing is produced by the type. It .is also easier to set the type in'the case.
In accordance with the patent statutes I have described the principles of operation of my invention together with apparatus which I now consider to represent the best f but I desire to have it understood that the Construction shown is only illustrative and that the invention can becarried out bye other means and applied to uses other' than those above set forth within the scope of the following claims.
Having described my invention what I clainas new and desire to protect'by Letters Patent is: A
1. In means for printing, the combinetion of a line holder comprising sidewalls in parallel relation and spaced apart and forming a substantially vertical passageway adapted to engage the upper edg between them, and a prmting type having a printing end and a plain or non-printing 'end to rest on a type bed, said type being of greater length than the height of the line holder and having a supporting shoulder' e of one of said walls to support 'the type thereinwith its printing end upward when not on the type bed and with the plain or non-printing end protruding froni the lower edge of the line holder, wherebygwhen said line holder with-thetype therein is placed on the type bed withfithe non-printing end of the type against the bed, said shoulder is rojecte out of engagement with th'e wall o the line I holder. I 2 In means for printing, the combination of a line` holder, oomprisng, side walls in stantially `parallel,`longitudinally and transversely tan! look uplgiiln said holder; `'and aprinting type havng a rinting end and a plain or nonpriiting" ei d to rest on a type bed, said type bein ;of *greater length than the height of the ine holder and having a supporting shoulder adapted to engage the of one of said therein with its printing en upward when 'end to rest on a type bed` and fitting whereby when sai not on 'the type bed and with the plain or non-printing end protruding froni the lower edge of the line holder, whereby when said line holder with the type therein is placec on the type bed with the non-printing end of the type against the bed, said shoulder is ro ect-ed out' of engage'nent with the wall of the line holder.
3. 'In means for printing, the conbination of a line holder, comprising, side walls in parallel relation and'held spaced apart .t'orning a substantially"vertical passageway between them, and a printi'ng type having a prnting end and a pla-n or non-printing between said walls, said type being of greater length than' the height of holder; 'and' having a supporting shoulder adapted to engage the .iipper edge of one of said walls to support the with its printing end upward when not on the type bed and with the plain or nonprinting end protruding from the lower edge-of the line holder, whereby when said line holder with the type therein isplaced on the typebed with the non-prnting end of the type against the bed, said shoulder s freelyaprojected out of engagement with the wall of the line h`lder.
4. In means for printing, the combination V of a line holder comprising a pair of side walls parallel longitudinally i and transversely and held together at their ends, and a printing type having a printing end-and a plain'or non-prnting end to rest on a type bed, said type being of greater length than the height of the line holder, and having a loosely type therein the line supporting shoulder adapted to engage the upper edge of one of said walls to support the typetherein with its printing end upward when not on 'the type the lain or non-printing end protruding from the lower. edge of the line holder,
'd line holder, with the type therein, is placed on the type bed, with the non-printing end of the type against the bed said' shoulder is project-ed out of en-.
,l held together at their ends, a` gagement with the wall of the line holder. V
I have signed my In testimony whereof,
in the presence of name to this specification, two snbscribing witnesses.
