METHOD AND MEANS FOR PRINTING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb; '7, 1922.
Application filed June 14, 1921. Serial No. 477,866.
T 0 (d1 71.72.0775 it may concern Be it known that I, LOUIS E. lVoonARn, a citizen of the United States, and a resident o f Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented anew and Improved. Method and Means for Printing, of which the following is a description.
My invention is more particularly intended for the printing of theater tickets and has special reference to the printing. of a coupon or reserve seat ticket.
The general object of my invention is to provide an economical method of printing the successively numbered tickets to diiferentiate reserve seat tickets, by means of a cylindrical printing plate composed of half sections produced by setting up the type in separate chases or other forms with parallel lines, the matter in the lines of one'chase running continuously with the corresponding lines in the other chase, and forming semi-circular matrices, the plates formed trom which, when assembled in cylindrical form, will present the printing elements in.
the form of a. continuous spiral.
The nature of the invention and its distiuctive features and advantages, will clearly appear as the description proceeds.
l iei'erence is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming apart of this specification, it being understood that the drawings are merely illustrative of one example oi. the invention.
Figure l is a plan view of a chase having one-half of the type to be printed locked therein;
. Figure 2 is a similar view of another chase employee in coaction with the first chase;
Figure 8 is side elevation of a cylindrical printing plate formed in accordance with my invention.
In carrying out my invention, in practice, I take two chases as indicated at A, A, and I set up therein the matter to be printed, said. matter being on parallel lines and the lines preferably being oblique. The matter in the lines ofone chase is continuous with the matter in the corresponding lines ofthe other chase. Thus, the matter set up in the first line of chase A is continued to the first line of the chase A as at 10 to the full width of the latter, then a second line in the chase A is completed and the set-up matter continued to the second line of the second chase A. Thereby, the first line 10 for example in the chase A will be continuous with the matter in the first line 10 of the chase A and so on throughout the successive lines in the respective chases.
The matter having been imposed (or set up) in the respective chases and locked, I produce matrices from the respective forms. If the lines in the chases are oblique, the lines in the matrices. will necessarily be also oblique but a similar result can be obtained by having the lines in the chases parallel, withthe top and bottom thereof, the flongs v for the matrices in this case being. imposed on the chases or forms at such an angle that the lines will be produced obliquely in the matrices.
The matrices having been produced with the lines of printing matter oblique therein,
semi-circular printing plates are cast therethrough the medium of a screw arrangement having the same pitch as the pitch of the spirally disposed printing elements on the cylinder plate.
In practice, the paper or cardboard to be printed is fed from a. roll and pamed between the cylinder and an impression device,
thus impressing the type matter on the printing stock. Tn the case of theater tickets, the first seat designation will be printed, the stock advanced the length of the ticket, and the second seat desi nation impressed, and so on to the extent desired. It is to be understood that the type matter in the plates may be arranged to print the body and date of the ticket as well as the reserve seat designation. The ticket printing being completed, the printed strip or ribbon is now advanced to a revolving knife or cutter in a manner well known in printing, to'cut it into proper lengths.
Since various colored tickets are desired for a theater to differentiate the various sections of seats, a roll of stock of each color will be provided in practice, each with separate printing mechanism. Thus, if ten colors are to be printed at one time from the above described impression cylinder, ten
separate printing devices for the body and.
date will bearranged side by side. As the pression cylinder.
I would state in conclusion that while the illustrated example constitutes a practical embodiment of my invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the mechanical details herein illustrated, since manifestly the same ,can be considerably varied without departure from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim l. The method of producing a printing medium, consisting in imposing the type matter in two chases on oblique lines, the lines of matter in the one chase being continuous With the corresponding lines of the other chase, forming semi-cylindrical matrices of the matter in said chases, and producing a cylindrical printing plate from said matrices. V
In the method of producing a printing medium, the steps of forming two separate type assemblages of the matter to be printed with the lines of matter parallel and with the matter in one assemblage continuous with the matter inthe corresponding lines of the other assemblagaandforming matrices from said type assemblages with the lines of the matter inthe matrices running obliquely to constitute a continuous spiral when the matrices are assembled in cylin dricalform. V
3. In the method of producing a printing medium, the steps of forming two separate type assemblages of the matter to be printed with the lines of matter parallel and with the matter in the lines. of one assemblage continuous with the matter in the corresponding lines of the other assemblage, forming semi-cylindrical matrices from said type assemblages with the lines of matter in the matrices running obliquely to constitute a continuous spiral when the matrices are
