W. J. RENO. HAND STAMP CABINET.
(Application filed. July 81, 1900.)
(No Model.)
HAN D-STAM P CABINET.
1792EGIFI0ATION refinin part of Letters Patent No. 665,800, dated January s, 1901.
Application filed July 31, 1900.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM J. RENO, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of lwin Springs, Idaho, have invented certain Improvements in Hand-Stamp Cabinets, of which the following is a specification My invention consists of a hand-stamp cabinet so constructed that the stamps are always supported in convenient posit-ion for immedi ate use and when so supported always bear the same relation to each other, each stamp being also returned automatically to proper position after being used or after withdrawal being permitted to remain withdrawn until it is desired to cause its automatic return.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a hand-stamp cabinet constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a front View of the same, partly in section; and Fig. 3 is a view illustrating a special feature of my invention.
The cabinet consists of a casing 1, having by preference a front presenting a series of overhanging ledges or steps 2, said casing having a series of internal longitudinal rods or spindles 3, located one above another and serving for the support of a series of spools 4, of which there may be as many as desired on each of the spindles, each spool being free to turn on its spindle and being held in proper longitudinal position thereon by means of flanking-collars 5, secured to the spindle by set-screws or otherwise, as shown in Fig. 2.
In the present instance I have shown the cabinet as provided with four spindles, each intended for the reception of three spools, the cabinet being intended to carry twelve stamps; but there may be as many spindles as desired, even in some cases but a single spindle, and, as before indicated, as many spools on each spindle as necessary, without departing from the main feature of my invention. Each of the spools 4 is acted upon by a coiled spring 6, secured at one end to a fixed support, preferably to the spindle itself, and at the other end engaging the spool, the latter being by preference provided with a number .of openings 7 for the reception of the end of the spring, so as to provide for varying the tension of the latter. On each spool is wound a cord, wire, chain, or other flexible connection 8, (hereinafter for convenience referred Serial No. 25 ,431. (N0 model.)
to as a cord,) the forward end of this cord passing through an opening in the front of the cabinet and being secured to the handle of the stamp 9, so that the pull of the spool upon the cord tends to maintain the butt-end of said handle normally in contact with the front of the cabinet, said butt-end of the ban dle being preferably provided with a cushion or pad 10, of rubber or other elastic material, although, if desired, such cushion or pad may be secured to the front of the cabinet instead of to the handle of the stamp, or both of said parts may be provided with such pad or cushion.
Anyone of the stamps can be readily draw u out from its posi ion on the cabinet, and after being used wili'on being released be immediatel drawn "/tck toits ro er .osition an Y P P P 3 undue shock g strain being relieved by the pad or cushion 10.
In order that the same stamp may be used for a number of times in succession without being drawn back to the cabinet after each use, I prefer to provide each of the spools with an automatic locking and releasing device, such as shown in Fig. 3, said device consisting of pawls 11 on the end of the spool and a notched disk 12 on the rod or spindle 3, the locking device being thrown into action by slacking up the cord slightly after withdrawing the stamp, so that one of the pawls will drop into engagement with a notch of the disk and will lock the spool thereto, and being released by a sudden pull upon and quick release of the stamp when it is desired to return the same to its proper position upon the cabinet, the spring in such case rotating the spool so rapidly that the pawls cannot operate quickly enough to engage with the notched disk and lock the spool.
It will be evident that as the stamps always hear the same relation to each other the user of the stamps, being familiar with this relation, can Without loss of time select the stamp desired and draw the same forward and after using it can simply release it, whereupon it will be immediately drawn back to its proper position upon the cabinet.
The overhanging or step-like character of the front of the cabinet facilitates the selection of the stamps, since it insures the placing of each horizontal row of stamps in a difinvention saves a considerable amount of time when compared with the customary Y practice of hanging the different stamps upon a rack, either fixed or rotating, since in the latter case the stamps must be lifted from the rack and returned to the latter by hand after being used, there being no mechanical means of returning the stamps and of insuring the maintenance of the series of stamps in their proper relation one to another.
When the cord 8 possesses inherent elasticity or resiliency, the use of the springactated spools may be dispensed with, although the use of the spools is always preferred.
Having thus described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patcut- 1. The combination of a cabinet having a front with overhanging ledges or steps, a series of hand-stamps, one or more for each of said ledges or steps, and elastic retainers for holding the stamps in position on the cabinet but permitting them to be drawn outwardly therefrom, substantially as specified.
2. The combination of a casing having a series of spindles located one above another, a series of spring-actuated spools turning on said spindles, a series of hand-stamps, and flexible connections between said stamps and the spools, whereby the stamps are held in position on the casing and are returned thereto after being drawn outwardly therefrom, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM J. RENO.
