[NVEN TOR.
' ATTORNEY Patented Oct. 5, 1920.
' UNlTED' STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES B. BIRD, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
' To all whom it may concern:
PEN AND PENCIL HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 5, 1920.
Application filed October 17, 1919. Serial No. 331,425.
Be it known that 1, CHARLES B. Brno, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Pen and Pencil Holders, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to improvements in holding devices for pens and pencils, and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements herein described and claimed. 7
An object of my invention is to provide a simple device which may be secured to the clothing, and which will hold pens and pencils securely.
A further object of my invention is to provide a spring device which may be instantly secured in position or released, and in which the insertion of the pen or pencil aids in securing the device to the clothing.
A further object of my invention is to provide a holding device for pens or pencils, in which the latter are held closely to the body of the person upon whose garment the holder is attached, thereby steadying the pens or pencils and preventing the latter from working loose from the holder.
Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification, and the novel features of the invention will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, forming part of this application, in which Figure 1 is a plan view of one form of the device,
Fig. 2 is a section along the line 2-2 of Fig. 1,
Fig.3 is a plan view of a modified form of the device, and r Fig. l is a section along the line 4-4 of In carrying out my invention, I make use 7 .Of a single strip of spring metal 5, which is bent in the shape shown in Figs. 1 and 2 to provide a spring loop 6 at one end, of the size to hold a fountain pen or some similar article, and is bent at the other end, as, shown at 7 to hold a pencil. The portions 6 and 7 have struck up therefrom prongs 8 which are curved in the manner shown in Fig. 2.
In using the device, the holder is turned with the side bearing the prongs facing the part of the garment to which it is to be attached, as, for instance, on the inside of the vest pocket, or to any suitable portion of the clothing of the owner of the pencil or pen. The two portions 6 and 8 are now compressed between the thumb and one finger, the spring body portion tending to permit the two loops 6 and 7 to approach each other slightly. The holder is then pressed against the cloth and released, whereupon the prongs 8 will enter the cloth and will be held in position under spring tension. The holder isnow ready to receive the pens or pencils. The larger loop 6, as stated, is designed for a fountain pen, and when the latter is placed in the loop and pushed clownwardly, the loop tends to expand, and this expanding action causes the prongs, carried by the loop, to take a still firmer grip on the cloth. IVhen the pencil is inserted in the loop 7, the same action takes place, so that the result is that the holder is more firmly attached when holding the pen and pencil than it is when these are withdrawn.
In removing the holder, it is only necessary, to withdraw the pen and pencil, to press inwardly on the loops, when the prongs will be released and the holder may struck therefrom. Centrally disposed within the loops l0 and 11 is a loop 12 which is formed of pieces of metal struck up from the blank, and bent toward each other, leaving a space between the bent up portions. This portion 12 may be used for another pencil. This form of the device is attached in the same manner as that previously described, that is to say, by pinching the ends and pressing the prongs against the cloth, the latter will enter the cloth, and on releasing the pressure, will secure the holder firmly in position.
In both forms of this device, the pens and pencils are held close to the body of the person, as distinguished from those holders in which the metal holding portions are which the pencils or pens are held. The latter are close against the side of the pocket, out of the Way of the other articles Which may be Withdrawn or replaced, Without intertering with the pens and pencils.
' The device is simple in construction, and is of such a nature that it does not get-out of order.
I claim: 1. A pen and pencil holder comprising a spring metal plate having a portion bent in the form of a spring loop arrangedto hold a pen or pencil, said plate being provided with prongs adapted to enter a supporting surface and to be held in position by the spring tension of the plate.
2. A pen .andpencil holder comprising a spring metal plate bent at its ends to form spring loops, each of said loops being provided on the side of the loop opposite the My invention is espe-- loop extending 1n an opposite direction aWay from the prongs of the other loop.
4. A pen and pencil holder comprising a substantially flat metal plate bent at each end to form a; loop, said loops being on one side of the plate and being movable toward one another through the fiexure of the intervening'body portion, and a prong carried by each loop.
5. A pen and pencil holdercomprising a substantially fiat metal plate bent at each end to form a loop, said loops being on one side of the plate and being movable toward one another through the flexure of the intervening body, portion, and a prong carried by each loop on the side of the loop opposite the body portion;
. Y CHARLES B. BIRD.
