Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION :~
. This invention relates to new and useful improve~
ments in covers and supports for decorative lights such as Christmas lights normally attached to or adjacent the eaves ¦
of a residence or other building, for decorative purposes and although the present invention refers to-Christmas decor-ative lights, nevertheless it will of course be appreciated that any form of decorative light can be used.
Conventionally, decorative lights such as Christmas lights, are provided at spaced intervals along a flexible conductor and these conductors and/or the lamp holders for the lights, are detachably secured either to the eaves trough or to the overhang of the building by means of clips, `
' ~' ~
35~
nails, hooks or other supporting devices.
Not only are these relatively unslightly but they are preferably removed after the Christmas season in order to prevent severe deterioration occurring to the string of lights in the summer months due to the action of -rain, wind, sunlight and the like.
Furthermore conventional nails or hooks often rust and stain the paint on the building and often become unslightly after continual use.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION `
The present invention overcomes these disadvan-tages by providing a cover and support for a string of lights which may be secured to the underside of the con-ventional roof overhang and which contain the light string in a protected and hidden manner. This is accomplished by a two or three sided panel secured to the overhang and hav-ing means within the channel to support the conductors.
Decorative cutouts are provided in the face or vertical side of the support and cover and the lamp holders together with the lights therein, are positioned immediately behind these cutouts so that, when illuminated, the light shines through the decorative cutouts. The conductors and the lamp holders together with the lamps are protected from the elements and 3~;2~
may be left for extended periods without severe deteriora-tion occurring.
The principal object and essence of the inven-tion is therefore to provide a device of the character ;
herewithin described which may be secured to the overhang or soffit panel of a bullding and which includes means to support and retain a decorative light string in a sub-stantially protected and covered manner.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of the character herewithin described in which the ~, decorative cutouts can be provided in either the front or front and rear walls of the cover so that light may shine through one or both sides thereof depending upon the pre-ference of the user.
Still another object of the invention is to pro-vide a device of the character herewithin described which may include means whereby adjacent covers may be detach-ably connected to form one elongated longitudinally extend-ing support and cover.
A still further object of the invention is to pro-3rj 2~
vide a device of the character herewithin described which is simple in construction, economical in manufacture and otherwise well suited to the purpose for which it is de-signed.
With the foregoing in view, and other advantages as will become apparent to those skilled in the art to which this invention relates as this specification proceeds, my invention consists essentially in the arrangement and construction of parts all as hereinafter more partieularly described, referenee being had to the accompanying drawings in which:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Proceeding therefore to describe the invention in detail, reference character 10, in Figure 2, illustrates a roof of a building with the conventional overhang 11 includ-ing the soffit plate 12 and the eaves trough 13 secured to the front of the overhang.
The invention collectively designated 14 is pre-~3522 ferably secured to the substantially horizontal soffit 12, as will hereinafter be described, and is adapted to support and cover a decorative light string collectively designated 15.
The light string, in common with such devices, normally includes flexible electrical conduits 16, having lamp or light holders 17 operatively connected thereto in spaced relationship therealong, said lamp holders adapted to receive lamps 18 in the usual manner.
:;:
The conductors 16 are normally provided with electrical connector plugs (not illustrated) for connecting same to a source of electrical energy. However these are conventional and are not shown in the enclosed drawings.
.~
The invention 14 is preferably formed in the con-figuration shown, from relatively thin sheet metal such as aluminum which may either be painted or anodized (not illus-trated) if desired.
Alternatively of course relatively thin sheet steel or synthetic plastic material may be used but the aluminum sheeting has several advantages one of which is the `~
the fact it is readily cut with household scissors or/like if the ~35~
length needs adjustment for installation purposes.
~igure lO shows one embodiment of the invention in which the cover and support comprises an elongated mem- ;
ber including a substantially vertical side l9 and a sup-port side 20 which extends substantially at right angles from the upper edge 21 of the vertical side l9.
~.
,~
However the preferredembodiment is shown in the remainder of the drawings and includes an elongated member comprising the support side 20 and a pair of downwardly de-pending longitudinally extending side members l9A and l9B :
situated in substantially spaced and parallel relationship with one another and one each depending from the longitud-inal side edges of the support member 20. The formation can of course be formed by conventional breaking equipment (not illustrated).
:
' i ~
The elongated members 14 may be secured to the underside of the soffit 12 by means of screws 22 extending through apertures 23 formed in the support side 20.
Means are provided to detachably support the con-ductors of the light string 15 and take the form, in this embodiment, of tabs 24 struck out from the material forming .. .... ~ . .. .
~3~52Z
the support surface 20 as clearly illustrated in Figure 1, with said tabs remaining attached to the support side 20 by a portion or side 25 thereof. Due to the relative thinness of the material, these tabs 24 are bendable so that the conductors 16 may be engaged over the tabs where-upon the tabs may be bent upwardly as illustrated in Figure 5 thus clamping the conductors 16 between the tabs and the inner surface 20A of the support side 20. Alterna-tively of course the conductors may be secured to one of ~
the vertical sides 19 by a slmilar means if desired. :
Decorative cutouts 26 are punched through the material forming the vertical sides 19 and the lamp holders 17 together with the lamps 18 are positioned within the cover immediately behind the cutouts so that light emitted by the lamps, shines through the cutouts. The positioning of these lamps relative to the cutouts is shown clearly in Figures 3 and 4.
In the embodiment illustrated in Figure 10, the cutouts are situated in the side 19 but in the preferred embodiment, the cutouts may be provided in the front side member l9A and also, if desired, in the rear side member l9B, it being understood that the cutouts are in alignment with one another along the two sides so that light can shine forwardly and rearwardly relative to the roof structure illus-trated in Figure 2.
3~22 Clip portions 27 are struck from the vertical sides l9~at one end thereof as clearly shown in Figure l to enable overlapping engagement of the other end 28 of an adjacent cover and support thus detachably holding the cover and supports together when installed to form a sub-stantially continuous length.
Figures 6 through 9 show examples of other shapes of decorative cutouts 26A, which may be utilized if desired However these designs are not limiting and are given as ex-amples only, As mentioned previously, the support and cover l~
may be anodized if formed from aluminum or painted if form-ed from aluminum or relatively thin sheet metal. If formed from plastic, then of course the plastic may be coloured as desired, during the production thereof.
The covers and supports are easy to install and hide the conductors of the decorative light string and also provide means for supporting same within the cover so that the light shines through the decorative cutouts 26.
Since various modifications can be made in my in-vention as hereinabove described, and many apparently wide-S%2 ly different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the claims without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanying specification shall be interpreted as illus-trative only and not in a limiting sense.
