HAND-STAMP.

To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, ELMER FISHER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of l/Vayne and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hand-Stamps, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to hand stamps, and has for an object to provide a stamp of this character which will include flexible elastic means between the head and the handle so as to insure an even mark of the type when the stamp is brought into contact with the object to be marked.

In the drawing, forming a portion of this specification and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the stamp, the different parts thereof being separated from each other and parts being shown in section for the purpose of clearness. Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the device.

The device shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing comprises a head 1 which may be of any suitable approved Well known construction and configuration, the same having formed therein a vertically threaded pas sage 2 for the reception of one end of the elastic connecting member 3 which connects the head with the handle or hand-grip 4. The handle 4 is provided with a passage 5 Specification of Letters Patent.

which is disposed in axial alinement with the passage 2 in the head and screwed thereinto is the opposite end of the connecting member 3. The member 3 is formed preferably of a single piece of springy Wire wound spirally the wound portions thereof being arranged against each other so that in effect such portions form a substantial screw-thread, whereby the spring can be readily attached to the handle and head respectively, without resorting to the use oil. cement or other permanent fastening means.

I claim:

A hand stamp comprising a head, a han dle therefor, the said head having a threaded passage therein, the handle having a threaded passage therein disposed in axial alinement with the first passage, and a con necting member comprising a spirally wound wire having its convolute portions engaged directly against each other and having the same equal diameter throughout to provide an effective screw-thread whereby the ends of the said member may be securely thread ed in the passages in the said head and handle respectively.

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