The portfolio consists of the two side-walls a and c and. the back b... At side a
there is a plated connected with plate by means of hinge e. These two plates d
and f form also the perforatore being supplied with pins and f with corresponding
holes h. By means of hinge i plate is connected with wires k, one of which has a
bevel-end and the other an excavation m. At side 6 is fixed plate n and to this
are fixed wires q in 2 grooves o & p, which wires correspond with and mat
and m'. On n there is a binding-piece-r with slits s into which plate t with holes u
is tied round the wires g by means of the shoulder v. One manipulates as follows:
First one perforates the letter etc., by pressing plate f on d, now one puts it with its
holes on wires q and holds it down firmly on to the others by introducing plate t
into the corresponding slit s. In order to take a letter out from the middle, one
has to join the wires q and 4 with the bevel-ends 1 & 1 and the excavations m
and m, which are keept firmly together through walls a & b which are
constrained towards one another. Now one passes part of the letters on wires k,
removes them from wires and takes out the letter.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is :-
:―
1. A portfolio characterized through the wires k and 9 which can be firmly
connected through the tension of walls a & b and excavations m and m³, in order
to allow a letter to be taken out, substantially as herein described.
2. With the portfolio as above a perforator formed through pins g and holes hat
the plates d & f, substantially as herein described.
3. With the perforator as above the fixing of letters through a binding plate t
in slits s, substantially as herein described.
