I was looking at an old razor patent and found it tedious to match up the details in the patent drawings to those in the patent text. Then I had an idea and some time on my hands. The result is the following collection of interactive online vintage (mostly razor) patents. Here are some hints on how to use them:
In the patent text on the right, hover your mouse over any text highligted in blue and the corresponding part will be highlighted in the drawings on the left.
In the patent images on the left, hover over any part number or identifier and any mentions of it in the patent text on the right will be highlighted.
If you click on a highlighted part it will stay highlighted until you click elsewhere. This allows you to scroll through the patent text and see where a part is referenced.
You can click on the ⊖ and ⊕ buttons to change the scale of the drawings on the left. If the drawings won't fit in your browser window anymore, they can be scrolled.
NEW: If you hold down the shift while moving the mouse over the patent image, the area under the mouse cursor will be magnified.
You can use your browser's zoom function to increase or decrease the size of the patent text on the right.
If you own one of the first few razors marked as “Must Read”, I highly recommend reading those patents while having the razor at hand. You will appreciate the tiny little details that went into the design of those razors.
The following 555 patents are available:
