PARALLEL STRAIGHTEDGE DEVICE Filed July 27, 1939 Patented Sept. 16, 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT 'OFFI'C E Harold L. De Lisle, Sheboygan, Wis.
Application July 27, 1939, Serial No. 286,743
4 Claims. (01. 33-89) This invention relates to parallel straightedge Figure 3 is a section taken on the staggered line 3-3 of Fig. 2;
Figure 4 .is an enlarged section taken on the line 44 of Fig. 1 through the cable clamp mechanism showing its associated pulley;
Figure 5 is an enlarged perspective view of one of the mounting clips with its associated cable in exploded relationship; and
Figure 6 is an enlarged axial sectional View of the spring take-up mechanism.
It is well known that there are two classes of 5 parallel straightedge devices of this general character, one in which the straightedge is fixed to the cable and the cable and straightedge always move together, and the other in which the cable is normally fixed to the drawing board and the v straightedge moves relatively to the cable with provision for partial movement of the cable with respect to the drawing board for certain purposes while still permitting relative movement-of the cable and straightedge. relates to this latter class, as will next be described by reference in detail to the illustrative construction shown in the drawing.
The drawing board l may be of the usual wood construction and may be the permanent top The present invention f;
of a conventional drawing table, generally of sizes from say six to sometimes twelve feet in length, having the usual leg or other supports (not shown), the drawing paper (not shown) being superimposed upon its surface as by thumbtacks as is well known, and lying beneath the straightedge II which is movable thereover for the purpose of drawing a pluralityof parallel lines thereon. The straight'edge II is guided in its movement on the board It) by a cable which is here shown comprising two sections I2 and i3 connected along the top of the board by a spring take-up mechanism M. The cable section I2 is held to the lower left-hand corner of the board as at 15, passes around the pulley H at the lefthand end of the straightedge, then along the straightedge to the pulley H at the right-hand end of the straightedge, then around the .pulley 18 at the upper right-hand corner of the board and to the spring take-up mechanism M to which it is connected as at I9. The cable section. l3 similarly is held to the lower right-hand corner of the board as .at 20, passes around the pulley 2| at the right-hand end of the straightedge, then along the straightedge to the pulley 22 at the left-hand end of the straightedge, then around the pulley 23 at the upper left-hand corner of the board and to the spring take-up mechanism to which it is connected as at 24. The pulleys l8 and 23 are carried by brackets 25 and 26 respectively, which may be secured to the board as by screws 21.
In accordance with the present invention, movement of the cable, except under the influence of the spring take-up I4, is inhibited by the clamp mechanism 28 so that the angular position of the straightedge with respect to the board is maintained the same in all translatory positions of the straightedge.
The clamp mechanism 28 is advantageously carried by the pulley bracket 26, and as best shown in Fig. 4, comprises a screw-stud 29 which passes upwardly through a bossed opening 30 in the bracket, this opening being screw-threaded to mesh with the screw-stud 29. A knurled thumb-piece 3| is screwed ontothe upper end of the screw-stud 29, and between this thumbpiece and the bracket 25 is a clamp-piece 32, this piece having a perforation 33 through which the screw-stud 3i! passes, the margin of this perforation being frictionally engaged by the thumbpiece and the perforation being of a sufficient size to receive the boss 34 of the opening 30. Thus, while the thumb-piece 3| may be unscrewed oli the stud 29,-rotation of the thumbpiece in the opposite direction to screw it onto the stud will, after reaching its limit, cause further common rotation of the thumb-piece and stud in the threaded bossed opening 30, and will thus press the clamp-piece 33 against the bracket 26.- The outer end of the clamp-piece 33 overhangs the cable and has a lip 35 which laps the edge of the bracket 26 in tightened position clamping mechanism but freeable therefrom in released position. The board may be downwardly recessed as at 29a to receive the head of the screw-stud 29 when screwed downwardly. Thus, when the thumb-piece 3| is screwed down as described, the cable as a whole is clamped against movement relatively to the drawing board.
Further in accordance with the present invention, the straightedge. II is made of a single fiat piece 36 of material such as a phenolic condensation product or the like into which Celluloid marginal edge portions 31 may be set. Thus, the straightedge has a low flat surface without objectionable thickness or obstruction to the free movement of the hands of the draft-sman. The pulley housings 38 at each end of the straightedge are readily afiixed thereto as by screws 39 and are slightly upwardly turreted as at 40 to receive the pulley plate 4| upon which the pulleys I6 and 32, as a pair, or I! and 2!, as a pair, as the case may be, are secured in spaced aligned relation-' ship as by rivets 42 which may also pass through the upper wall of the turret 49, to secure the attachment of these parts. The turret 40 advantageously is of somewhat oval shape, as is also the plate 4|, to conform to'the perimetersof the them against interference with'the free and unobstructed use of the straightedge by the draftsman or from other objectionable contact. As here shown, the under face of the straightedge piece 36 is grooved lengthwise centrally as at 46, and the cables pass into this groove as they emerge from the apertures 44 through elongated I slots 4'! at each end of the straightedge which register with the groove 46. If desired, to more adequately maintain the cable in the groove 46,
3 keepers such as the disks 48 of the same material 4 as the straightedge piece 36 may be pressed into corresponding circular holes in the under face of the straightedge piece 36 flush with that face and bridging the groove 46 and the cable therein.
As best shown in Fig. 5, the ends of the cable sections maybe secured to the board as at l5 and 26 by means of a clip member 49 having a screw-hole 50 in its lower end through which 'a screw passes into the edge of the board l6 and having at its upper end a notch 5| into which the end of the cable section l2 or l3, as the case may be, may be inserted. A ferrule 52, prevented and unobstructed for use as an ordinary drawing board, and thereafter when the straightedge is again desired for use it may be replaced with the cable in position on the board as shown in Fig. 1, it being unnecessary at any time to disconnect the twosections of cable from each other or from the straightedge, the cable and straightedge bemg thus handled as a unit.
The cable may be readily placed in position by laying the straightedge on the board, anchoring one end of the cable'as at 15, looping the cable around the pulleys 23 and I8 and then stretching the cable slightly to attach its other end' as at common cable runs from view and protecting g from slipping off the cable by having the cable end knotted'a-s at 53, has a reduced end' 54 which I is snugly received in the notch 5|, thelarge'r part 1 of the ferrule by engagement with the margins of the notch resistingpull of the cable.
As best shown in Fig. 6, the spring take-up mechanism in this instance embodies a spring barrel 55to one end of which is fixed an eyelet 56 3 to which one of the cable sections, in this instance I the cable section l3, isattached as at 24, and the other end of which has an opening 51 in which is 'slidable a rod 58 having eyelets 59 and 60 at its j opposite ends, the eyelet 59 being within the 1 spring barrel 55 and the eyelet 60 on the exterior. 1 A compression coil spring 6| is inserted by the 1 rod 58-abutting at one end the eyelet 59 and at 1 the opposite end the wall of the spring barrel 55 adjacent theopening 51. 1 attached to the eyelet 69 as at l9.
The cable section I2 is As best shown in Fig. 4 also, the pulleys 23 and to the board, compressing the spring 6| slightly so that the cable is always desirably under tension when in use. The angular position of the straightedge may then be adjusted. at will, for example, as shown in full lines in Fig. 1,'to-a position parallel with the lower edge of the board. Thereupon if this angular position is desired to be maintained as the straightedgeis moved up or down on the boardto draw say a series of parallel lines all parallel with the lower edge of the board, the clamping mechanism 28 is tightened to grip the cable as shown in Figs.'1 and 4, and thus movement of the cable as a-whole with respect to the board is prevented. At the same time as the straightedge is moved by translatory motion toward or away from the lower edge of the drawing board, the cable and straightedge readily move relatively by reason of turning of the pulleys I6, 22, I! and'2l, and the common runs of the cable sectionswhich pass through the I board. The spring6l is of sufficient strength so as not to be compressed by normal movements of the straightedge.
When, now, it is desired to change the angle 4 of the straightedge with respect to the board, the clamping mechanism is released and the straightedge shifted manually to the angle desired. In this operation the runs of the cable above the straightedge'are moved with respect to the board, the pulleys 23 and I8 readily permitting this movement, and shifting bodily the position ofthe spring take-up l4 to the left or right as the case may be. For example, as shown in broken lines in Fig. 1, if the clamping mechanism 28 is released and the straightedge caused to assume an angle in which the left-hand end of the straightedge is the nearest to the lower edge of the board, the spring take-up mechanism 14 will move bodily to the left from the center position which it normally occupies, as shownin full lines in Fig. 1. In this shifted position shown in dotted lines the clamp mechanism 28 may again be tightened to so maintain the cable relatively to the board, and
draw a series of parallel lines all similarly angularly related to the lower edge of the board.
As will be readily understood, if it is desired to draw parallel lines at some other angle, for example, in which the right-hand end of the straightedge is nearer the bottom of the board, the clamping mechanism is again released, the straightedge manually placed at the desired angle with its right-hand end nearer the lower edge of the board, the cable will shift bodily with respect to the board so that the spring take-up mechanism I4 will assume a position to the right of its normal central position, and the clamping mechanism 28 may be again tightened to maintain that angle.
In extreme angular position of the straightedge when the cable is shifted with respect to the board to shift the take-up mechanism bodily, there may be also some slight further compression of the spring Bl to extend the cable a trifle to permit the warping of the cable at the sides of the board from parallelism with the side edges of the board, but under moderate manipulations of the angular position of the straightedge no change in the compression of the spring 6| is necessary when the spring take-up is shifted bodily as described, the spring merely having already taken up the slack in the cable.
Such changes may be made as fall within the scope of the following claims without departing from the invention.
