INKSTAND.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 11, 1908.
Application filed September 12| 1906. Serial No. 334.25OJ
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it know that l, ANTON WoLz, a citizen of the Confederation of Switzerland, residing in St. Luzi, Chur, in said Confederation, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in lnkstands, of'which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to inkstands, and more particularly to stationary inkstands such as are fitted in the top of a desk or table. f
rllhe object of the invention is to provide an inkstand of this type wherein the ink in the well into which the pen is dipped can be kept always at the same level in a very simple manner, this level being regulated in order to supply exactly the proper amount of ink to the pen. With this end in view the invention consists in an inkstand embodying the novel features of construction to be hereinafter described and claimed.
ln the accompanying drawing, in which the same reference characters denote the same parts throughout the several figures, Figure l is a vertical'section of an inkstand constructed in accordance with the invention, the same being shown as mounted in a mortise or socket of a desk or table, Fig. 2 is a plan view of- Fig. l, but with the cover re# moved, and Fig. 3 is a plan view of the body of the inkstand with the ink-well fitting therein.
In the drawing a denotes a socket or mortise in the top of a desk or table. Said mortise is preferably made square in horizontal section, as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. 2, and the desk is provided with a circular rabbet ax extendin about said socket at its upper part. Mova le vertically in the socket a is an ink-receiving body al, whichis of cylindrical shape throughout the greater part of its height, but provided with a substantially square base b1 fitting rather snugly in the socket a and by means of which said body is guided vertically in the socket. Said body is provided at its upper part with a conical ink-receiving cavity and is threaded exteriorly so as to be engaged by a threaded adjusting sleeve d which fits within the socket of the desk and is provided at its upper end with a laterally extending flange d2 resting in the rabbet a-X. By means of said flange the adjusting sleeve and the ink-receiving body in threaded engagment therewith are supported within the socket. Upon the upper surface of the flan e d2 are upwardly extending lugs d3 by w ich the fiange may be grasped in order to turn the adjusting sleeve in either direction.
An ink-well e, of substantially conical form, fits within the cavity of the body al. At its lower part said well is provided with a small openin c2 through which the ink flows into the bo y a1. At its upper edge the well e is provided with a laterally extending flange c1 which rests on the upper edge ofthe flange d2 of the adjusting sleeve d in such a manner that the well is supported on said sleeve. A cover f having a knob f1 fits over the well e and is provided with an interior flange f 2 extending downwardly into' the well for a short distance in order to form a tight connection between the cover and well.
In operation the inkstand is filled when the body 0,1 has been screwed down into the bot tom of the socket by means of the adjusting sleeve ol. The ink is then poured into the well c through which it runs, by means of the 4 openingz, into said body. A line is preferably marked on the inner surface of the well to indicate the height to which the ink should extend. As the ink becomes gradually exhausted, it will become necessary to raise the body 0,1 in order to bring more ink up into the well, and this is eected by screwing the adjusting sleeve d in the proper direction; said sleeve, though rotating, will remain immovable vertically, together with the well e, but the body a1, being unable to rotate in the socket, will be raised or lowered according to the direction in which the sleeve is turned, being guided in its movement by the square base b1.
It is apparent that the adjustment of the body can be very readily effected by turning the adjusting sleeve as described. In this simple manner the ink can always be kept at the same level in the ink-well and supplied inproper quantity to the pen. By ralsrng the ink-receiving body as far as possible all the ink can be used up, so that no waste will be occasioned. It is apparent that the whole device may be lifted out of the socket in the desk when desired.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
l. The combination, with a part having a socket, of an ink-receiving body movablevertically therein, a rotary adjusting sleeve supported in said socket, and a well supported on said sleeve and extending downwardly into said body.
2. The combination, with a desk having a mortise or socket, of a threaded ink-receiving body guided vertically in said socket, a threaded adjusting sleeve having a flange at its upper end by which it is supported in said socket, and an inkewell itting within said ink-receiving body and supported by said sleeve. y l
3. The combination, with a part having a socket, of a threaded ink-receiving body in said socket, means whereby said body is guided vertically in said socket and prevented from rotation therein, an adjusting sleeve rotatable in said socket and threaded on said body, and means supported on said sleeve to contain a supply of ink.
4. The combination, with a desk having a socket of square cross-section, of an eXteri orly threaded inlvreceiving body having a square base fitting within said socket, an adjusting sleeve embracing said body and threaded thereon and mounted to rotate in avanza f said socket, andy an ink-well supported by said sleeve.
5. The combination, with a desk having a socket and a rabbet about the upper edge of said socket, of an ink-receiving body guided vertically in said socket, an adjusting sleeve threaded on said body and having a flange resting in said rabbet, and an ink-well supported by said adjusting sleeve and fitting within said ink-receiving body.
6. The combination, with a desk having a socket, of an ink-receiving body guided vertically in said socket, an adjusting sleeve by which said body is raised and lowered having at its upper end` a supporting ilange, upwardly extending lugs on said ilange by which the sleeve is manually turned, and an ink-well having'a ilange supported on said sleeve at the upper end of the latter.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing asmy invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
-ANTON WOLZ.
