IMi ROVE MENT IN PRINTERS LEAD-RACKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 135,894, dated February 18, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Oc'rAviIs A. BEARING, of San Francisco city and county, State of California, have invented an Improved Lead- Rack; and I do hereby declare the following description and accompanying drawing are sufficient to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which it most nearly appertains to make and use my said invention or improvement without further invention or experiment.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved rack for containing the leads used by printers to make spaces in the setting of type and job work; and it consists mainly in a novel construction of a case having vertical spaces, which are graded and numbered to contain the different lengths of leads; and, in connection with said case, a gage, by which the place of any lead is determined.
Referring to the accompanying drawing for a more complete explanation of my invention Figure l is aperspective view of my im proved rack. Fig. 2 is a viewilfi f a partition and back.
are connected by other parallel sides 0 O, and
the rack is placed so as to stand upon one of the tapering sides. The bottom of the case thus formed will vary in depth regularly from one end to the other. I a
In order to accommodate the different lengths of leads, and also, to separate them from each other, I make partitions in the following manner: Each of the two tapering sides B B are scored or grooved by means of a saw, the sets of grooves being at the same distance apart and opposite each other. I then bend pieces of tin or other thin metal so as to form partitions D of the proper depth for each groove. A back for each space is formed bybending the-pieces of tin so that a short section, IE, will stand at right angles with the partition. The partition being then slipped into its groove, the back will just rest against the top and bottom boards of the frame. In order to determine the length of any lead and the position it shall occupy in the rack, I place a gage, F, upon one of the vertical sides, and by applying the lead to the gage, its size will be instantly seen. The spaces are all numbered to correspond with the different sizes of leads, and each division of the rack can be filled to the top, if desired, thus providing plenty of leads of any particular size.
This device provides a convenient rack for containing leads, and is of great assistance to printers.
Having thus described my invention, what OOTAVUS A. DEARING. [L. s.]
