Excerpt from Journal of the Franklin Institute of the State of Pennsylvania, Vol. 8: Devoted to the Mechanic Arts, Manufactures, General Science, and the Recording of American and Other Patented Inventions The general structure of this block is like those commonly used, having fixed lips or catches on one edge, and moveable, or sliding catches on the other. The two sliding catches are forced up against the edge of the plate simultaneously by turning a key which fits on to a pinion. The teeth of this pinion act upon a sliding plate, each end of which forms a wedge, these wedges acting upon the two slid ing lips, force them Up. There is a spiral Spring Upon the shanks of the sliding slips, which force them out when relieved by turning the pinion, so as to withdraw the wedges. Some other modes of movin the wedges are described, and considered as included in the genera principle. The claim is to so much and such parts of the machinery above described, in combination, as is or may be employed by moving the moveable lips to or from the stereotype plates, at one Operation, by inclined planes, or wedges and springs, acted upon by a rack and pinion with a key, or in either of the ways mentioned; and the mov ing of the moveable lips to or from the stereotype plate at one ope ration.
