ALBERT R. WEISZ, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
PAPER-FILE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 257,115, dated April 25, 1882.
Application filed February 21, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALBERT R. WErsz, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Paper-Files, of which the following is a specification This invention consists in the combination, with a-suitable back, of a paper-supporting wire which is curved, an eye formed at the bottom end of said wire, a stop projecting from said eye, a groove formed in the back to receive the wire, a pivot passing through the sides of the groove and through the eye of the wire, a thumb-piece formed near the outer end of the wire, and a latch fitted into the groove of the back and constructed to engage with the outerend ofthe wire, so that when the wire is closed in its curved portion bears against the bottom of the groove of the back, and when its end is forced inward so as to engage with the latch it is firmly retained in position, and it is not liable to open accidentally, and when the wire is opened it is retained by the stop at its inner end in such a position that the papers can be readily changed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a sectional side view when the paper-supporting wire is closed. Fig. 2 is a' similar view when the paper-supporting wire is open. Fig. 3 is a front view.
Similarletters indicate corresponding parts.
In the drawings, the letter A designates the back of my paper-file, which may be made of Wood or' any other suitable material, and which is provided with a handle, B In this back is formed a groove, to, of sufficient length and depth to admit the bights of the papers to be supported by my device.
0 is the paper-supportin g wire which is provided at its inner end with an eye, I), and a stop,
c, and near its outer end with a thumb-piece, d.
The eye 12 engages with a pin, e, which extends through the sides of the groove to, and the wire 0 is curved throughout its entire length, as shown in Fig. 2. In the groove a, near its outer end, is secured a latch, f, which swings on a pin, g. The latch may,.however, be secured to the back A in any suitable position. When the wire 0 is forced in ward by pressing against the thumb-piece cl its curved surface bears against the bottom of the groove to, and some force is required to bring the outer end of said wire in position to engage with the latch f, and if the latch has closed down over said outer edge it is not liable to open spontaneously. In order to open it the wire 0 must be forced slightly inward by pressing against the'thumb-piece d with one hand, while the other hand is used to lift the latchf. The papers supported by the wire 0 therefore are not liable to become accidentally released. When the wire 0 is opened, as shown in Fig. 2, it is retained by the stop a in a convenient position for changing the papers.
I do not claim broadly as my invention the back provided with a paper-supporting wire.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination, substantially as hereinbefore described, of the back, the groove formed in said back, the paper-supporting wire curved throughout its length, the eye'formed near the inner end of said wire, the stop projecting from said eye, the pin passing through the sides of 7 the groove and through the eye, the thumbpiece formed near the outer end of the wire, and the latch secured to the back at or near its outer end.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ALBERT R. WEISZ.
