INK-WELL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent NO. 781,868, dated February '7, 1905.
n Application led May 25,1904. Serial No. 209,699.
T afl/f whom, it .17m/y concern;
Be it known that I, STEPHEN G. BALDWIN,
I a citizen of the United States, residing at Ma rion, in the county of Grant and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ink-Wells; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as'willenable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use thc same, reference being had totheaccompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon,which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to ink-wells, and has for its object to provide a device of this class which is simple in its construction, easy and cheap to manufacture, and composed of a minimum number of parts.
vA further object of my invention is to provide an ink-well which effectually seals the ink against atmospheric action.
A further object o`f my invention is to provide a combined inkjwell and pen holder and wiper.
With all these objects in vienl m invention consists in the novel construction of the'sevv eral parts of the ink-well.
My invention valso consists in the particular arrangement of the parts and in the location of the shot, the purposes of which will be first described and afterward specifically pointed out in theappended claims.
i Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a perspective view of the ink-well. Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the same, andFig. 3 is a like view showing a slight modification.
Like numerals of reference indicate the same parts throughout the several gures, in which l indicates the ink-well, .which is composed of an outer receptacle 2, which may be of any convenient shape or of the shape shown in Fig. 41. Referring to Fig. 2, it will be seen that the outer receptacle2 vis integral with the inner receptacle 3, which inner receptacle carries the ink. In this construction it is of course necessaryT to form the ink-well of glass or a like, material which can be molded or blown. In Fig. 3, however, the inner receptacle 3 is nota part of or secured to the outer Vreceptacle 2, and when following this construction the outer receptacle may be made of wood or any suitable material, while the inner ink-receptacle 3 may be made of glass,
sbs
hard rubber, or'any material suitable for holdin the said receptacle, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the size of the opening sufficient to freely admit of a pen being dipped into the ink. 6 indicates an annular fiange or wall on said cover which extends down into the outer receptacle 2, and 7 indicates the shot carried in said outer receptacle, into which the said annular flange or wall 6 enters.
Having thus described the several parts of my invention, its operation is as follows: A sufficient quantity of shot is poured into the outer receptacle 2, andthe ink-receptacle 3 is filled with ink. The cover L is placed in position, the wall or flange 6 thereof being pressed into the shot a suflicient distance to allow-the end of the cone-shaped portion of saidv cover to enter the ink. It is obvious that when the cover is in this position only that portion of the surface of theink which is within the end of the cone-shaped portion 5 is exposed to the action of the air, while the remaining surface of the inkis sufliciently sealed against evaporation'on account of the annular flange 6 of the cover 4 extending down into the shot 7, `it being of course u nderstood that the shot employedis of a size which will be readily displaced by the fiange 6. As the ink in the ink-receptacle 3 is used, the cover 4 is depressed so as to always keep theend of the cone-shaped portion 5 in the ink, the highest position of the cover being shown in [dotted lines inFigj2.' `VVhen, of course, the ink gets so low' that the walls of the receptacle 3 prevent a further lowering of the cover ,4, the said receptacle 3 should be can be removed for cleaning without in any Way disturbing the outer receptacle 2.
Referring now to Fig. l, it will be seen that the shot 7, While acting as a seal for the ink and While supporting the cover 4 at any desired point, also acts as a penholder and pen- Wiper, as after using the pen the same is inserted in the shot between the flange 6 ot' the cover and the Wall of the outer receptacle 2, and the pen can be allowed to remain in the shot, if desired, thereby utilizing the device as a penholder, or after inserting the pen in the s hot the same may be Withdrawn and racked on a separate rack, if so desired.
Having thus fully described my invention, it is of course obvious that any other suitable material or a yielding mass other than shot can be employed, and .it is also obvious that my invention is susceptible to many slight changes in details of construction Without departing from the limit and scope of my invention, and I consider myself clearly entitled to all such changes and modifications.
WhatIclaiIn as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States,
1. In an ink-Well, the combination of an outer receptacle to receive shot, an inner inliholding receptacle, a cover having a coneshaped portion adapted to enter the said inkrcceptacle and an annular iiange or rim on said cover adapted to enter-said outer receptacle and to be pressed into and supported by the shot in said outer receptacle to support the end of the said cone-shaped portion of said top belon7 the surface of the ink in said inlvreceptacle, substantially as described.
2. In an ink-well, thel combination of an outer receptacle, an ink-receptacle, a cover having a portion thereof extending Within the said ink-receptacle and a portion thereof eX- tending within the said outer receptacle, a yielding mass within said outer receptacle adapted to be displaced by the portion of the cover extending within said outer receptacle, said material being also adapted to receive the pen to wipe the same, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
