COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
A Combination Crayon-holder and Tracing Wheel.
We, WILLIAM DESKETT FOOT VINCENT, of 115, Percy Road, Shepherd's
Bush, W., Tailor's Cutter, and GEORGE COLE BOROUGHS, of Lavender-
Gardens, Clapham Common, S.W. (late of 6, Auckland Road, Clapham Junction),
Publisher's Assistant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement :-
The invention consists of two metal or other plates, triangular in form by
preference, fastened together by means of screws one of which forms the pivot of
the tracing wheel, said pivot fitting into a slot for the purpose of protecting the
tracing wheel when not in use; the plates are lined with rubber or other material
to protect the crayon.
The pivot can be worked so as to bring the tracing wheel into position for use:
when required.
In order that the invention may be properly understood and readily carried into
practice we will now proceed to describe the same more fully aided by the accom-.
panying drawing in which
Fig. 1. is a front elevation of a crayon holder and tracing wheel combined con--
structed and arranged according to our invention.
Fig. 2. is an edge view partly in section and
Figs. 3 and 4 are respectively elevations detached of the inside of the front and
back plates.
The front and back plates ab of the crayon holder and tracing wheel are secured
together by means of the screws c c and the screwed pin d, said pin d, acts as the
pivot of the tracing wheel e and passes through the slots a¹ b, formed in the front
and back plates ab and is then secured by the nut d' said nut d' upon being.
loosened will allow the tracing wheel e to slide into and out of use as may be
desired, at the same time upon it being tightened up, it will retain the tracing wheel
in the position for use as shown in the drawings or if not required for use but for
carrying in the pocket the wheel is slid down the slots a' b and there secured by
screwing up the nut d' the points of the tracing wheel are thus protected between
the plates a. b. The central portion of the pin d is turned quite plain so as to.
allow the tracing wheel e to revolve freely thereon.

page_text: The crayon g (Fig. 1) is gripped by the front and back plates a 6 which are
provided with rubber or other yielding pieces h. which hold the crayon firmly and
at the same time prevent its being broken.
In place of the screws c c¹ hereinbefore described clips or other fastenings may
be used if desired with equally good results.
It will thus be seen that a combined crayon holder and tracing wheel for tailors
and other purposes may be constructed to be carried in the pocket without damage
thereto or to either the crayon or tracing wheel.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
The combined crayon holder and tracing wheel substantially as herein described
and shewn in the accompanying drawings and for the purpose stated.
Dated the 21st day of February 1891.
