WILLIAM H. PEAK, 01F ANNA, ILLINOIS.
CARD-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed January 30, 1911. Serial No. 605,614.
' To all whom it may concern:
' construction.
' Another object of my invention is to provide a card holder loosely mounted upon a guide whereby the same may be moved longitudinally thereon and thrown to an oblique position in order to allow the card to be readily inspected.
Another ob ect of my invention is to provide a holder which is formed of sheet metal having tongues punched therefrom for engaging the card tobe held whereby the same V will be firmly supported thereon.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a holder having a spur adapted to engage a card when in position under the tongues so as to hold the card in such man-' ner that all danger of the same becoming displaced is prevented.
Other and further objects and advantages of the .invention will be hereinafter set forth and the novel features thereof defined by the ap ended claims.
In the awing-Figure 1 is' a rspective view of my improved mvention; ig. 2 is a transverse section through the same; Fig. 3
- is a section taken on l1ne 33 of Fig.2;
section through the same showing the posi- Fig. 4 is a detail view showing a card placed therein in a slightly different manner; Fig.
'5 is a detail front view of a modified form of holder; and Fig. 6 is a vertical transverse tlon the cards assume when in position.
Like numerals of reference refer to like parts in the several figures of the drawing. In carryingout my improved invention, I employ a support 1 which, in the 'form' shown, is that of a file having a handle-2 and a longitudinal guide 3 which is substantially T-sha ed in cross section and on which are shdably mounted holders 4 and followers 5. While I have shown and described the support in the form of a file, it is understood that the'same may be of any shape desired, such for instance as in the form of a wheel.
The holders 4 are preferably formed of sheet metal and' comprise an oblong body portion 6 having a substantially T- shaped opening formed therein adapted to embrace the T-shaped guide 3, said opening having a convexed edge 7 in order to reduce the frictional engaging surface whereby the holder can be moved longitudinally upon the guide easily. The inwardly projecting portions 8 formed by cutting the T-shaped openin therein are spaced at such a distance rom the upper edge of the opening that the holder is allowed'to swing upon the guide in order to assume an oblique position so as to throw the card carried thereby, as
will be later described, into such a position that the inspecting of the same will be greatly facilitated. Ihe body of theholder 1s provided with upwardly projecting-portions 9 at each end havlng tongues 10 punched therefrom such manner that a 'card, as shown at 11,"can be readily forced between the tongues and portions so as to grip the card and hold the same firmly in position. The intermediate upper edge of the body 6 of the holder 4 forms a support for the card when in position, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and is rovided with a central spur 12 which exten 3 up along the side of the card in order to hold the same upon the intermediate portion when in the position as clearly shown in Fig. 3.
In Fig. 4, I show the card forced down under the spring tongues 10 past the intermediate portion, in which position the card is held by the spring tongues alone. It will be seen that by constructingthe holder in this manner, the card may be placed in either position and firmly held without danger of the card becoming accidentall detached when the same is being inspecte In connection with the ho ders, I employ a pair of followers 5 which are forme of spring wire having return bent portions 13 at their ends which embrace the edges of the guide 3 in such manner that they are capable of being moved thereon and swung into an oblique osition in order to form a support for the holders as well as to provide means for removing the holders from the guide.
In the modification shown in Figs. 5 and 6, I show a holder constructed substantially Patented May 9, 1911.
in the same manner with the exception of the upwardly projecting portions 14, which, in this case, are provided with spaced spring tongues 15 adapted to be forced outwardly in opposite directions in order to receive cards upon both sides, whereby double the numberof cards may be held. I
Having described my invention and set forth its merits, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters'Patent is 1. A card holder comprising a support having a guide, card holders slidably mounted upon said guide and capable of assuming an oblique position, said holders being provided. with integral spring tongues for holding cards. i
2. A card holder comprising a metal plate having upwardly projecting portions at its ends and a centralspur, said upwardly projecting po'rtions being provided with spring tongues for engaging a card.
3. The combination with a guide, a plurality of holders loosely mounted upon said guide, each of said holders being provided.
with spring tongues for en aging cards, and followers slidably mounte upon said guide for supporting said holders,
4. The combination with a su portpro- I vided with a T-shaped guide, 0 a' holder provided with a T-shaped opening slidably mounted upon guide, saidholder being 2 loosely mounted upon said guide, said holders being provided with substantially T-shaped openings to receive the guide, card engaging members extending upwardly from said holders, and followers slidably mounted upon said guide, said followers comprising spring frames having return bent portions at their ends for embracing the edges of said guide. v
6. Adevice of the kind described comprising a T-shaped guide member, and a plurality of-holders having T-shaped openings loosely mounted on said guide.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
