PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE A. HUEWE, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO THE KEYS, LEE & I-IUEWE COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
ORDER-HOLDER.
SPEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 470,824, dated March 15, 1892.
Application filed July 17, 1891.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. HUEWE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Cincinnati, in the county of l-Iamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Order- Holders, of which the following is a specification.
The nature of my invention consistsin the construction and arrangement of the clamping device, which will be hereinafter more fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims made hereto.
My invention is fully illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which form'part of this specification, and in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Figure 1 represents a perspective view of an order-holder illustratimg my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the same, the position of the clamp when open being shown in dotted lines. Fig. 3isa perspective view of the clamping-plate, and Fig. 4 is a similar view of the clamping-lever. Figs. 5
and 6 are perspective views, showing modified forms of my invention.
A designates the cover, which is made of board orother suitable material; and it consists of the two wide flaps a a and the two narrow strips or flaps b b. These flaps are covered and united by a continuous piece of canvas or other suitable material and glued or otherwise secured to both sides, sufficient spaces, as c c 0, being left between the rigid parts in order to form hinges for the purpose of allowing the flaps to be turned back or folded at the points, where they are thus united or hinged together by the canvas; but any other suitable hinge may be employed. The space 0 between the upper flaps a and b is made wider than at the other points of connection, as shown in the drawings, in order to enable the top cover to be folded back over the clamp.
B designates my improved clamping device. This is preferably made of steel and is adapted to fit over the two narrowflaps b b at their center when folded together, and consists of the U-shaped plate 07, secured to the bottom flap b by means of the rivets or other suitable Serial No. 399,817. (No model.)
fastening. The holee is drilled through both of the flaps b b, in order that the rivet may be inserted and secured to the bottom flap after the clamp is slipped over the cover. The a plate at is provided with the cut-out portion f, and the slot 9 cut out, as at h, and forming the shoulders g for the receptionof the clamping-lever O. This clamping-lever O is pro vided with slots '5 i of a sufficient length to allow the shoulders g, formed on the plate d, to pass through them. The elongated end j of the lever O is bent so as to form a cam, as lo, for the purpose hereinafter explained.
Instead of having the two slots h h in the lever 0, one slot only can be used, as shown at h in dotted lines in Fig. 4:. The length of this slot his twice that of the slots 1', in order to enable the lever to pass through the opening it between the shoulders g;
The lever O is held in a vertical position and passed through the opening h in plate (Z, the shoulder g being passed through the slots '1. The lever is then pulled up until its camshaped portion bears against the under side of the plate. The clamp is now slipped over the outside of the central flaps b of the cover when folded, and its under side secured to the bottom flaps by means of rivets or other suitable fastening.
When the lever O is pressed down, (the cutout portion f allowing it to pass below the plane of its axis,) the cam portion is bearing on the cover b, securely clamps the parts together. This lever being eccentric with the plate dis securely held in position when it reaches a point below the plane of its axis.
To the top of the cover I secure a strip of leather or othersuitable material of about the width of the strip 19 and the length of the clamp to form a bearing-surface for the cam-lever to work upon, and thereby prevent the Wearing out of the canvas covering.
Thev orders are placed in the holder between the central flaps.
When itis desired to remove the orders'or other papers in the hold er, the lever C is thrown up, thereby unclamping and releasing the covers and allowing the order to be easily withdrawn and others inserted.
I have shown in Fig. 5 a modified form of clamp, which consists of two separate plates having their upper edges turned up to form bearing for a pin Z, to which the clamping-lever 0 is rigidly secured.
Fig. 6 shows another slightly-modified construction, the only difference being in the construction of the plate (l, which is made in one piece and cut out, as at m, so as to allow'the lever G to be pressed down below the center of its axis, and thereby securely clamp the cover together.
I am aware that order-holders have been constructed with a clasp adapted to be tightly slipped over the center of the back of the cover and thereby clamp the same together; but in such construction it is necessary to either remove the clasp from the holder or use something to act as a fulcrum when the covers are folded back and spring open the clasp.
In my device all that is necessary is to operate the lever G to clamp and unclasp the holder.
Vhat I claim is- 1. In an order-holder, the combination, with the cover, of an eccentric clamping device secured to the back of said cover and adapted to hold the same securely together, substantially as described.
2. The combination, with the cover, of an 30 eccentric clamping device consisting of the plate (1, provided with a clamping-lever C, loosely secured therein and adapted when passed down to securely clamp the covers to gether, substantially as and for the purposes specified. V
The combination, with the cover A, of the plate (1, provided with the cut-out portion f, the open slot g, having shoulders g, and the lever 0, provided with slots 1', substantially as and for the purposes specified.
4:. The combination, with the cover, of the plate (I, having cut-out portion f and slot and the lever 0, having slots 1: and the camshaped portion j, the said lever-O being adapted to turn in the slot 1 and be securely clamped and held in a locked position when pressed down below the center of its axis, substantially as described.
