3 Claims.
This invention relates to fountain pens, pencils or combination pens and pencils; and the object of the invention is to provide a body portion of the device or the cap used in conjunction 5 therewith with means for characterizing the same to enhance the appearance of the device or to apply thereto symbolsor markings of interest to the purchaser or user of the device; 2. further object being to provide the surface of the device with an annular groove in which may be mounted an openwork ring or frame divided into a plurality of frame sections or areas spaced circumferentially thereof in and through which symbols, characters, markings or designs may be visible in the use of the pen or pencil; a further object being to provide a means of characterizing a pen or pencil which includes a strip or band disposed beneath the frame and having symbols or characters thereon spaced to register with the openings formed in said frame to be visible therethrough; and with these and other objects in view, the invention consists in a device of the class and for the purpose specified, which is simple in construction, efficient in use, and which is constructed as hereinafter de scribed and claimed. 7
The invention is fully disclosed in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawing forms a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by suitable reference characters in each of the views, and in which:
I Fig. l is a side view of a pen illustrating one of my improved devices thereon.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view showing another side of a part of the device shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a View similar to Fig. 2 showing another side portion of the device with part of the construction broken away and in section.
Fig. i is a perspective view of an openwork ring or frame which I employ.
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3; and,
Figs. 6 and 7 are views similar to Fig. 5 showing other forms of construction.
In the manufacture and sale of fountain pens, pencils or combination pens and pencils employing tubular barrels with an ink or pencil feed mechanism disposed therein and with caps for closing or covering the point of the pen, it has been known in the art to provide ornamental bands or sleeves to the pen or pencil, and in some cases, these bands or sleeves were cut out or otherwise fashioned to form predetermined designs.
New York, N. Y.
1935, Serial No. 29,005
In carrying my invention into effect, I propose to mark or apply directly to the pen or pencil or to the cap thereof one or more characterizing symbols which may be the representation of a predetermined person or being, an animal, symbol, shield, emblem or the like to give distinct characteristics to the particular article of 'manufacture and to provide an openwork tube, ring or frame which is disposed over or adjacent to the marks or symbols referred to, to provide means for framing the same to present a neat and attractive appearance on the resulting pen or pencil.
To illustrate one method of carrying my invention into effect, I have shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing at 8, the body portion of a fountain pen and at 9 a cap detachable withrespect to the body 8. This cap is provided with a relatively wide annular groove or recess it which is formed of such depth as to receive an openwork sleeve or ring it as well as a thin facing l2 disposed in the recess ill beneath the ring I i.
In the construction shown, the ring II consists of end bands Ha joined at circumferentially spaced intervals by three strips lib forming three rectangular openings l3, M and i5, which openings are shown respectively in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing substantially as they appear on the circumference of the cap 9. The thin facing l2 may be applied to the pen in any desired manner and will form a background of any desired color or combinations of colors within the openings l3, it and I5. Disposed within said openings are predetermined representations which may be of the several types named. In order to simplify the illustration in the accompanying drawing, these distinct representations are identified by a triangle l6 which appears in the opening 53; a square I! appearing in the opening it; and a circle 53 appearing in the opening 15. The markings it, I! and i8 may be pictures of three distinct beings, animals, objects or things, including emblems and the like, or may be representations of the same person, animal or the like, and when the subject is the same, the posture or picture may be of a different representation.
The structure shown in Fig. 6 differs from that shown in Fig. 5 simply in that the facing lZa is in the form of a band. of preformed, printed or lithographed material which may be pasted or otherwise mounted upon the support within the recess thereof and disposed beneath the band or ring H. Whereas, in Fig. 7 of the drawing, the facings or strips l2, l2a are disposed with, and
the cap 9 itself has markings applied to the surface thereof within the respective openings l3, l4 and i5 of the band II as is indicated at lfia, Ha and "la. These markings may be stamped, rolled, engraved or otherwise formed directly upon the surface of the support.
By constructing pens, pencils and the like in the manner described, a means is provided for materially stimulating the sale of articles of manufacture of the kind under consideration, especially in applying to the pen a picture or symbol or combinations of pictures or symbols Which will appeal to both young and old and may, in certain uses of the invention, be sold or distributed as advertising mediums for advertising merchandise of various kinds and classes. The invention further lends itself to the application of various types of club or other symbols, shields or emblems to pens, pencils and the like. The contour or design of the band or frame ll may be modified to suit or conform with the particular display to be arranged in the one or more openings provided in such band or frame.
From the foregoing, it will be apparent that the invention has a wide range of uses and applications, and that the characterized element or elements of the combination may be applied to the surface of the support in any desired manner, it being understood that decalcomanias may be used for this purpose, and various other changes may be made within the scope of the invention as defined.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. The combination with a cylindrical pocket implement having a shallow annular groove in the outer face of the cylindrical Wall thereof, of a thin band firmly pressed into said groove to retain said band against movement longitudinally of said cylindrical wall, said band comprising two annular strips integrally joined by longitudinal strips, and said longitudinal strips forming circumferentially spaced openings in said band in which predetermined pictorial illustrations are arranged.
2. A device for forming individual pictorial display sections circumferentially of a cylindrical pocket implement, said device comprising a thin straight walled open-work band of the same thickness and circumferential dimensions throughout to lie flush with a supporting surface, said band comprising end rings integrally joined and spaced by narrow longitudinal strips positioned at circumferential intervals on said rings.
3. The combination with a cylindrical pocket implement having a shallow annular groove in the outer face of the cylindrical wall thereof, of a plurality of individual pictorial illustrations placed in said groove, and an integral thin metal band firmly pressed into said groove consisting of two annular strips and a plurality of spacing strips spacing the annular strips from one another and positioning them against the annular shoulders of said groove, the annular strips covering and protecting the annular edges of the pictorial illustrations against injury and accidental removal and the spacing strips covering the intervening spaces between adjacent pictorial illustrations.
