UNITED STATES JOHN WILLIAM WHITE, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
PAPER-HOLDER.
Application led October 17, 1918.
T 0 all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JOI-IN WILLIAM WHITE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and 'useful Improvements in Paper-Holders, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. r
The invention relates to paper holders and more particularly to a holder for holding papers such as bills, orders and the like preparatory to the filling in of the writing thereon, and also after the papers are fully written.
Printed bill forms and the like are usually taken in loose packages and laid on the desk loosely, then written one at a time and piled in another loose package. This process is Very unsystematic and requires weights to hold the papers in place if the slightest breeze is blowing', each weight having' to be lifted at least once for each bill or paper that is written.
It is essential that some form of holder be provided to hold both the unwritten and written bills or papers so that they may be readily withdrawn from the unwritten package or pile and written, and then placed on the written pile or package.
The present invention has provided a simple and eiiicient form of paper holder for holding both unfinished and completed papers, bills and the like in separate loose packages so that an unfinished paper or bill may be drawn from the unfinished package and finished and then placed on the finished package.
A further object of the invention is to provide the holder with adjustable retainers to conform to different sizes of papers, bills and the like.
In the drawings z*- Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the paper holder.
Fig. 2 is a plan View.
Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view.
The frame l presents two upwardly facing inclining faces 5 and 6 on which may be deposited loose packages of papers, and the plate shaped retainers 7 and 8 disposed transversely of the lower edge of the respective faces and inclining outwardly at a right Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 4., 1921. serial No, 258,494.
angle therefrom and then paralleling the respective faces for a relatively short distance and forming retaining lips 9 and 10 respectively to hold the papers from lifting fipm the frame by drafts of wind and the The frame is provided with the pairs of holes 11, 12, 18, 111, 15 and 16 in which are inserted loosely the retaining brackets 17,18, 19, 2,0, 21 and 22, the brackets as shownbeing formed of wire, and the brackets 21 and 22 being shown in 'dotted lines, as all the brackets are not employed simultaneously. Each of the retaining brackets may be inserted in any pair of holes, as all are duplicates excepting the bracket 20, which differs only in the distance it may extend over the frame 4:, the extending arms 23 thereof and the inserted arms thereof 24, being longer than like parts of the remaining brackets, separate numerals for the brackets being employed to aid in the description of the paper holder which appears hereinafter.
Each of the retaining of a single piece of wire, and in order to describe their shape, the description lof the retaining bracket 17 follows:
The insertion arms 25 are approximately parallel and extending therefrom at a right angle and in the same direction are the spacing arms 26, the retaining arms 27 extending at a right angle to the spacing arms and in the same direction and approximately parallel with the insertion arms, the latter arms being connected by the connecting portion of the wire or retainer 28 which is disposed transversely to all the other parts of the retaining bracket. The foregoing description applies to all the retaining brackets as shown.
Through the frame 4 is inserted the shafts on which are rigidly mounted the legs 30, the legs being shown in dotted lines folded within the frame, and in full lines extended. The object of the folding legs is to elevate the paper holder when desired and to decrease the height thereof when it not desired to employ the legs.
In operation the retaining brackets 21 and 22 are not usually employed by a right handed operator, while a left handed operator maywithdraw the retaining brackets 17 and 18 and insert them in the position shown of the retaining brackets 21 and 22.
brackets is formed The retaining bracket 22 is shown partly withdrawn and it is understood that all the retaining brackets excepting the bracket 2O may be likewise partly Withdrawn to accommodate various sizes of sheets of paper.
As usually employed the papers or bill forms in loose packages are inserted beneath the retaining brackets 17 and 19 and allowed to rest upon the inclined face 5 of 'the frame l and against the plate shaped retainer 7, each paper or form being withdrawn and written upon or filled in and then placed upon the inclined face G of the frame 4 underneath the retaining brackets 18 and 20 and against the plate shaped re-.
tainer 8, until all the papers or forms are completed and transferred to the face 6, when the finished package is removed and a second unlinished package placed upon the face 5 of the frame Il, this operation being repeated indeiinitely.
`When desired the retaining bracket 19` may be removed and the brackets 21 and 22 employed, the papers or bill forms being slipped downwardly upon each face 5 and 6 beneath the brackets 17 and 21 and the brackets 18 and 22 respectively,fand with drawn in an upwardly inclined direction.
It is obvious that changes may be made in the construction as set forth without departure from the esssentials of the invention.
What is claimed as new, and desired to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a paper holder, a base provided with two receiving faces, said faces each facing upwardly and inclining downwardly and Vfrom the opposite face, a retainer at the lower ,edge of each of said receiving faces, and retaining brackets extending upwardly and over said receiving faces.
2. In a paper holder, a frame provided with two paper receiving faces, said faces facing upwardly and inclining downwardly in opposite directions, a retainer at the lower edge of each of said receiving faces, said retainers each projecting at a right angle from` the respective face and then parallel with the respective face, and retaining brackets spaced above and extending inwardly over said receiving faces.
JOI-IN WILLIAM WHITE.
