WRITING-PEN.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 770,417, dated September 20, 1904.

Application filed June 6, .1904. Serial No. 211,319- (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, HENRY S. BREWINGTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore city, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Writing-Pens, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in pens, the object being to provide a writingpen which will write a maximum number of letters without refilling, having to a limited degree the qualities of a fountain-pen, while at the same time it is a pen which may be used with an ordinary penholder.

With the foregoing object in view my invention consists in a pen having one or more wings bent into shape to form cells open at both ends and having a space between them and located on either side of the slit and hole of the pen, so that all combine to hold the ink and pay it out as it is required in the operation of writing.

My invention further consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, which will be hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a view of the blank from which my preferred form of pen is made. Fig. 2 is a view of the completed pen. Fig. 3 is a view of the blank of a modified form of construction, and Fig. 4 is a view of the modified form of pen.

A represents the body of the pen, having the usual concavity throughout its length, it being preferably rounded at one end where it enters the penholder and pointed at the other end. It may be in various shapes. The pointed end 1 has the usual slit 2 and orifice 3, whereby the pen is divided into the nibs 44:. At the sides the two wings 5 5 are formed, preferably, as an integral part, and in the preferred form the forward ends of the wing are sharp and pointed, as at 6 6, extending welldown toward the point of the pen. In

the completed pen not only is the body portion concaved in the usual fashion, but also the wings are rolled up until their edges lie against the concaved surface of the pen, thus forming the cells 7 7, which cells are open at each end and preferably approach each other closely,leaving a narrow space 8between them, while their lower ends taper, as shown, the points 6 6 extending well down toward the point 1 0f the pen in order to supply the ink evenly to the point of the pen. In this way a pen is formed which carries a large supply of ink, which ink is made to flow gradually along the points of the pen as it is required for writing. Each cell as well as the space between cells and, the orifice 3 contribute to hold the ink and to supply it as it is required.

In the modification the wings 9 9 are rectangular, and when rolled into the form of cells the ends of the latter are straight instead of tapering, as shown at 10 10.

Various other modifications might of course be made without departure from the spirit andscope of my invention, and hence I do not wish to limit myself to the exact construction herein set forth; but,

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. As an article of manufacture, a pen having integral side wings which are rolled into open-ended cylinders beneath the lower side of the pen.

2. As an article of manufacture, a pen having Wings integral with each side, said wings rolled into two cylinders with an isolated space between them. Y

3. As an article of manufacture, a pen having two cells which lie side by side and longitudinallyof the pen and are separated sufiiciently to allow a space for ink between them.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

HENRY S. BREWINGTON.
