I ROLL-HOLDER FOR AUTOGRAPHIC REGISTERS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 772,943, dated October 25, 1904.

Application filed March 8, 1904.

' ments in Roll-Holders for Autographic Registers, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in roll-holders for autographic registers.

The object is to simplify and cheapen the means for supporting the paper-rolls in the register and to provide a suflicient tension for preventing the paper from unwlnding too freely.v

The features of my invention aremore fully set forth in the description of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a central vertical section of my register. Fig. 2 is a section on line V V. Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a plan viewofa modified form of spring-tension arms. tral vertical section of said arms with a section of the paper-roll in'elevation. Fig. 5 is a plan view of another modified form of roll-tension arms. Fig. 6 is a central vertical section of the spring-arm shown in Fig. 5 with the section of the paper-roll in elevation.

A represents the casing of the register.

B represents the writing-tablet.

C represents the marginal frame,support ed over the tablet. The. paper strips from the rolls and the carbon copy occupy the usual position between the tablet and marginal frame.

G represents a roll ofpaper.

In practice paper-rolls are sometimes provided with a hollow core or axis-opening G,

as shown in 2, and sometimes they arewound upon a core having endwise-projecting (Shown in Figs. 4c and 6.)

My invention is adapted to be used with eitherform of rolls.

To support the hollow core-roll, I provide resilient arms II. The inner ends of these arms are rigidly attached to the inside of the casing.

The arms are bent inward to form springclamps, and upon opposite sides thereof at their free ends they are provided with the concave friction-disks J J, the concave portion being adapted to fit within the core of the Fig. l is a cen Serial No. 197,188. (No model.)

hollow roll. (Shown in Fig. 2.) The springclamps are preferably provided with the fingers c for manipulating the same. The extended portions of the arm serve as frictionclamps to exert pressure endwise upon the rolls, thereby preventing them from being unwound too freely. When the paper-rolls are wound on an axial core, the disks are,

pierced with orifices to receive the axis and Having described my invention, I claim 1. In a roll-holder for autographic registers. a pair of inwardly-bent resilient arms, one end of said arms'being attached to the opposite sides of the register-casing and upon the inside thereof, the free end of said arms being provided with a disk, means for journaling a paper-roll centrally between the disks, the said spring-arms and disks being adapted to clamp end wise upon the paper-roll and hold it normally in position, and allowing said. roll to be readily detached by flexing the resilient arms, substantially as described.

2. In a roll-holder for autographic registers, a pair of inwardly-bent resilient arms, one end of said arms being attached to the opposite side of the register-casing and upon the readily removable therefrom by the-flexing of the arms, substantially as described.

Intestimony whereof .I have hereunto set my hand.
