Abstract: A device for an holding office utensil, such as an ink stamp, a self-inking stamp or other office utensil, includes a base plate including an arrangement of through holes and a spacer for supporting the base plate in a tilted position on a surface. An attachment is removably insertable in at least one of the through holes and is adapted for holding the office utensil.

Abstract: A self-inking stamp for performing an inking upstroke comprises a base part, which is adapted to be placed on the surface to be stamped and comprising an ink pad, which is opposite to the bottom surface of the base part, a type plate carrier, which is disposed in the base part and adapted to be reciprocated between the ink pad and the bottom surface of the base part and to be inverted during each stroke, and an actuating member, which embraces the base part with two side legs, which are guided on the narrow side walls of the base part, and is adapted to be displaced against spring force toward the bottom surface of the base part and the free ends of the side legs of which are interconnected by a pivot, which extends through slots formed in the narrow side walls of the base part.

Abstract: A self-inking stamp comprises a base part (1), which contains an ink pad (2) that is opposite to the bottom surface of the base part, a stamp insert, which carries a printing plate (9) and is reciprocable between the ink pad (2) and the bottom surface and is adapted to be inserted at the same time, and an actuating member (3), which has two end legs (4), which are guided on the outside of the end walls (5) of the base part. The actuating member is displaceable toward the bottom surface of the base part against spring force. The ends of a pivot (10) of the stamp insert are movably mounted in the end legs (4) of the actuating member (3) and may be movably mounted in said end legs in slots which extend transversely to the direction in which the actuating member is displaceable. The stamp insert is provided at its ends with longitudinal tracks (14) for receiving respective guide pins (13).

Abstract: A belt stamp comprises a housing (1), and a baseplate (11), which is hinged to a bottom end of the housing and is adapted to be swung open from a closed position and carries a printing plate (12). A stamping belt assembly (5) is mounted in the housing (1) and is adjustable therein by screws in a direction which is normal to the baseplate (11). The stamping belt assembly comprises stamping belts (9), which carry type (10), which is adapted to extend through a window (13) formed in the baseplate. In order to facilitate the assembling of the stamp and to simplify the replacement of the baseplate (11), the baseplate carries at its top a hinge pin (15), which is parallel to the baseplate and is pivoted in an inwardly open half-bushing (14), which is carried by the housing (1). Owing to that arrangement the hinge pin (15) can leave the half-bushing (14) when the baseplate (11) has been swung open and the baseplate (11) can then be removed from the housing.
