RULE-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 770,953, dated September 27, 1904.
Application filed April 5, 1904. Serial No. 201,785- (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM OTIS BELL, residing at Soldiers Home, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rule-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to pockets or holders for receiving and retaining rules and the like and which are adapted to be attached to the clothes of the operator and which are so constructed as to prevent the rule falling out of the holder when the operator is at work.
The invention seeks to provide a device of this character of a very simple and effective construction and which can be easily and cheaply made.
Generically the invention includes a sheetmetal receptacle conforming in its shape to the shape of the rule and means connected therewith for holding the rule in place in the receptacle and means for fastening the receptacle to a garment.
Again, the invention includes a certain novel structural arrangement and combination of parts, all of which will be first described and then be specifically pointed out in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of my invention as applied for use. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section thereof on the line 2 2 of Fig. 3, showing the part l of Fig. 3 in dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a cross-section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a cross-section on the line 4 4: of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a diagrammatic View of the blank from which the holder is made after the same has been stamped out.
In the drawings, in which like characters and letters of reference indicate like parts in all of the figures, the holder 1 consists of a back plate 1, terminating in the semicircular eX- tended end 1 to which the pins 2 2 are secured. Integrally formed with the plate 1 or otherwise secured thereto are the side portions 1 1 which are cut away, as at 1, to lighten the weight of the holder. The said portions 1 1 terminate at their outer end in outwardly-flared portions 1 and are joined at their lower end by the narrow cross-strip 1 asclearly shown in Fig. 8. Integrally formed with either or both of the side portions-1 1 in the cut-away portion are spring members 1 1 for engaging the rule r to prevent its accidental displacement from the receptacle, the springs 1 1 being preferably punched out of the metal of the side members during the operation of cutting away the metal to form the cut-away portion 1. The front 1 is likewise cut out, as at 1, and terminates at its outer end in a similarly-flared portion 1 and at its lower end is joined the cross-strip 1 as shown in Fig. 2. The flared portions 1 1 serve to form an enlarged mouth for the ready introduction of the rule into the case or pocket. The pins 2 extend the full length of the plate 1 and terminate at their other ends in hook portions 2, which normally fit over and are held by the lower edge 00 of the plate 1, as shown in Fig. 3, the strip l serving as a guard for the said hook ends 2 to prevent the tearing of the garment g by the said ends when the holder is attached to the said garment.
I have shown the rule r in dot-and-dash lines in Figs. 2 and 3, the semicircular hinge portion 1 being shown at the bottom of Fig. 2 and in side elevation in Fig. 3 in dot-anddash line. By constructing the holder, as shown, with the cross-piece 1 at the bottom the same serves as a guard for the pin ends and also serves to prevent the rule falling through the holder when the pins are unhooked. The pins are shown unhooked in dotted lines in Fig. 3.
In practice I preferably construct my improved holder of sheet metal, and the same may be formed of a single piece, if desired, by stamping out the metal, as shown in Fig. 5. The pins 2 have their upper ends passed through apertures 1 in the portion 1 of the plate 1, to which plate they are secured by soldering or otherwise.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, it is thought that the advantages, complete operation, and complete construction of my invention will be readily understood by those skilled in the art to which it appertains, and I desire it understood that slight changes in the detailed arrangement, design, and construction of my holder may be made without departing from the scope of the invention and the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A holder comprising a back plate, and skeleton side and face plates, a cross-piece joining the side plates at their lower end, said back, side and face plates being so arranged as to form a ruler-receiving holder, the upper edges of the side and face plates being outwardly flared to provide an enlarged mouth, pins secured to the back plate for attaching the holder to a garment, said pins having hook portions adapted to cooperate with the lower edge of the back plate, said cross-piece serving as a guard for said hook portions for the purposes specified.
2. A holder of the class described, comprising a back plate 1, side walls 1 1 and a facewall 1", said side walls having cut-away portions and having their upper ends flared outwardly to form a mouth, and means for securing said holder to a garment, said means including pins having hook portions for engaging the lower edge of the back plate, and a guard for said hook member, said guard also serving as a stop to prevent the rule falling through the holder.
3. A holder of the class described, comprising a back plate 1, side walls 1 1 and a facewalll, said side walls having cut-away portions and having their upper ends flared outwardly to form a mouth, and means for securing said holder to a garment, said means including pins having hook portions for engaging the lower edge of the back plate, and a guard for said hook member, said guard also serving as a stop to prevent the rule falling through the holder, and spring members for engaging the rule to prevent its accidental displacement for the purposes described.
WILLIAM OTIS BELL.
