APPARATUS FOR PROUCING MANU'SCRIPT MATTER IN MULTIPLE;y
I SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.A304,6 l3, dated September 2, 1884.
Application tiled January 24, 1584. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS C. CARM', a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Apparatus for Producing-Manuscript Matter in Multiple, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to an apparatus for obtaining autographically a multiplicity of copies ot' a writing simultaneously with the production of the original.
The invention consists in a need1epen supplied with ink, combined with means for carrying and imparting a rapid reciprocatory movement to the pen, whereby it is driven through one or a number of sheets of paper, carries the ink with it, and deposits the ink in holes made in the. paper, said holes being arranged by the proper guidance oll the pen to form letters, figures, or other characters or de signs, substantially as hereinafter specied and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrating iny invention, in the several figures ot' which like parts are similarly designated, Figure l is a rear olevationof my improved writing-I instrument. Fgfflis a vertical longitudinal section in the planeofline .fr w, Fig. l. Figs. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 are front elevationsot' various forms ot' needle-pens.
For convenience ot' illustration only, I have selected to exemplify my invention a somewhat common form ot'an instrument sometimes termed an autographic printing device,.7 consisting in this instance ol' a tube, ,-con taining a needle, l, which needle is provided with a head, c, between which and the upper end o1' the tube is interposed a spring, d, to hold said needle normally up. adjustably secured in a yoke, c, and this yoke contains a sha-ft,j`, bearing a cam, (1, to act upon and with the spring to rcciprocatelhe ncedle, and a power or motor device, h, here shown as a wind-wheel, which may be operated by a. blast ot air delivered through a nozzle, bul, instead ofthe wind-wheel or air-motor, l may employ an electric, water, or
' Spring motor, or otherwise drive the needle.
To the yoke l attach aring or eye, j, by which the instrument may be suspended from the ceiling or other elevation with an intermediate springt. The active end of the needle The tube is.
may have a longitudinal groove, Z, running out at its point, with transverse nicks m., as shown iu Fig. 3, or it may be simply an eye-pointed needle, as in Fig. 4, or an e \,'epointcd` needle 4removably arranged in a needle-bar by asetscrew, as in sewing-machines, (see Fig. 5;) or it may be au eye-pointed and longitudinally grooved needle, as in Fig. 6; or it may be a longitudinally-grooved needle, the bottom of the groove in which is nicked, crimped, or corrugated, as in Fig. 7 rllhe essential features of the needle are its penetrating-point and capacity ,to hold and convey ink, and the several forms just described embody many illustrations of these essentials. rEhe shape of the needle in cross-scction may be varied andthe nurnbcr and arrangement oi' the ink-ducts also varied. The needle is permitted to project beyond the. lower end of the tube a more or less, in accordance with the number or thickness ot'sheets of paper to be written upon at a single operation, and this adjust meut ot' the needle is effect-- ed by raising or lowering the tube. Inasmuch,
however, as the tube is in this instance cut away at n to permit access of the inkfountainto the pen, the said tubo cannot, as heretofore, be rotated to secure this adjustment; hence Iscrewthread the said tube at o and p above and below the bottoni piece o1' the yoke c, and leave a clear portion, q, between such threaded portions, which clear portion is adapted to move freely in a clear hole in the yoke c under the adjustments cecled by thenuts rand s, eugaging, respectively, the threaded portions o and p,- or thctube maybe threaded continuously from the bottom of threaded portion p up to the upper end, and still wor-k ina clear' hole in the yoke. The nuts r s bear against the upper and lower faces of the lower member ot' the yoke, and so serve to steady-in fact, rigidly hold-thetube in its adj usted positions. As is obvious, rota rily moving the nut s about the tube toward the yoke and the nut r from the yoke will cause the tubeto move from the yoke and hence decrease the amount ot'projection ol the needle from the tube; and, on the other hand, moving the nut fr toward and the nut s from the yoke will increase the projection ol' the needle from the tube by raising the tube up into the yoke.
'To prevent the binding of the nuts upon the tube tending to rotate it, the tube may be squared in the yoke.
ICO
As an ink-fountain I have shown an ordinary stylographic pen, t, secured to the tube at an angle of about sixty degrees, by means ofa hinged clampyoke,u, and having its lower or delivery end projecting into the excision n ways. The yoke u is hinged or jointed to perand all of the several sheets of the pile.
mit the turning of the fountain up and away from theneedle-pen, a spring, w, holding the joint in one or both positionsin any suitable manner. The yoke u is split at its endsyztd encircle the tube and fountain, respectively,
and is held in place andholds the fountain and tube in proper relative positions by bindingscrews 1 2 engaging` the meeting ends of such split portion f The operation is as: follows: A number of 4sheets of papercorresponding in number to that of the desired copies are placed and held stationary in a pile, one above another, on a soft or yieldingfoundation or bed, the needletube is'adjusted to give the requisite proj ection to the needle, and motion is imparted to the needle. The instrument 'is then manipulated after the manner of a pen or pencil in writing, as practiced 'with this sort of writ` ing device, and `the needle `taking the ink through the severalsheets of paper, leaving in each 'and all the same sort of mark or character in holes filled or surrounded by ink, and thus rendered.. readily decipherable .or legible7 and of a permanent character in cach Thus the original and a, large number of copiesv of a -writing, and all autographic, are obtained at one 4and the same writing without resorting,y
to duplicating byprinting or copying from the original, differing in this respect from all methods toY me known heretofore practiced. The number of copiesobtainablfe at a single oper tion is limi-ted only by the capacity of the motive power for driving the needle-pen through the paper: and the strengthv of the needle. 4
.As a supplement to or, substitute for the fountain attached to the pen, the ink or color-` ing-matter may be contained ina pad placed beneath theypile of sheets, and inthis 'case theink or coloring-matter will be drawn .up
through the paper by the returning needle and be deposited in the holes made by the needle.
The invention is specially applicable for getting many copies of a writing; but it is obviouslyf'applicable for making' in multiple designs, drawings, and the like.
What I claim is- 1. A machine or instrumentfor producing multiple autographic writings at one and the same operation, consisting of a pointed needlepen having an ink-duct, andmeans, substantially as set forth, to carryand rapidly reciprocate such needle-pen to drive it and its conl tained ink, under the guidance of the operator, through a number of sheets of paper in a pile, substantially. as described.
2. The combination of a pen holder or tube, a
needle-pen having an inkduct therein, means, j substantially as set forth. to rapidly reciprol cate such pen, and an inkfountain arranged f to deliver ink to the duct of the tially as described., p
3. The combination of a pen holder or tube cut away at its lower end, a needle-peri having an-ink-duct, means, substantially as set forth, to reciprocate such pen`in its holder, and an ink-fountain connected with and carpen, .substanried by the holder, and having its delivery end entering the holder at its excised portion in line with the ink-duct tothe pen, substantially as described.
4. The combination'of a pen holder or tube, a needle-pen having an inkduct, means, substantially as set forth, to reciprocate such pen in its holder, an ink-fountain, andy a jointed clamp connecting .such holder and fountain` and permitting the turning away of the fountain from the pen' when desired, substantially as described.` 5..The combination, with the needle-peu and-means, substantially as set forth, to reciprocate it, of the yoke, a pen holder o r4 tube loosely arranged in the yoke, in which tube said -needle reciprocates, and nuts engaging screw-threads on the tube ono'ppo'site sides of the yoke, and bearing upon the yoke to ee'ct the amount of projection of the pen fnom its' tube',- substantially as described.
6. The autographicjneedle-pen, having a longitudinal ink-duct and cross notches ordepressions, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 24th day of January, ALD. 18.84.
