JAMES WRIGHT, OE HAMILTON; ONTARIO; CANADA.
LANTERN.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES \Vmei-rr, a citizen of the Dominion of Canada, residing at 264 Cannon street east, in the city of Hamilton, in the county of WVentworth, in the Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lanterns, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to lanterns, and it has more particular reference to that type or class of lantern in which the bail is connected to the air tubes by means of eyes or shrunk on members surrounding or partially surrounding said air tubes.
One serious objection attendant upon some of the constructions heretofore produced is that the carrying handle when attached to a shrunk on member or annular ring frequently rusts or in cold weather gets frozen thereto, with the result that said handle is more or less impeded and rendered useless until freed by cleaning or thawing.
The main object of my invention is to overcome the foregoing objections in an exceedingly simple, cheap and effective manner.
A further object of the invention is to produce a neat and strong bail connection between the air tube and carrying handle whereby said handle remains operative under all service or other conditions.
With these objects in view the invention consists essentially in attaching the carrying handle to bails firmly embracing and partially embedded in the upper parts of the air tubes, said bails being so constructed as to render the carrying handle self righting or automatically to occupy a vertical or collapsed position as desired.
The accompanying sheet of drawings is by way of illustration of one practical embodiment of my invention.
Figure 1, is a fragmentary view of the upper part of a cold blast tubular lantern embodying one form of my invention. Fig. 2, is a similar view taken at right angles to Fig. 1, and with the carrying handle downwardly turned.
Similar numerals of reference indicate the same parts in the respective figures.
1, is the air chamber, 2, 2, the air tubes, 3, the air current collector and deflector,

2, 2, Where they join the air chamber 1, to
constitute flanged grooves or circumferential corrugations, 5, 5, said tubes being clenched, brazed, or soldered into the air chamber 1, in the well known way. Into these grooves or corrugations I fit endless loops or bails 6, 6, of wire in such manner that said loops are partially embedded in the peripheral surface of the air chamber 1, aforesaid, and as will be clearly understood on a close inspection of Fig. 1. These loops or bails 6, 6, are collapsed tightly into the grooves or corrugations 5, 5, and are then bent horizontally at 7, 7, to aline with the strengthening webs 8, 8, of the aforesaid tubes 2, 2, for a short distance, when they are substantially vertically bent at 9, 9, or turned over and expanded into loops 10, 10, to which the carrying handle 11, is attached in the well known way. This arrangement automatically provides for the handle being vertically turned up or down according to the amount of elasticity or spring provided in the loops of the handle 11.
Obviously the loops or bails 6, 6, may be shrunk on to the tubes 2, 2, at any point other than that described and shown and I wish it clearly understood I do not restrict myself to the exact details of arrangement of parts herein set forth, it being obvious that minor variations thereof not involving the exercise of invention may be made by those skilled in the art, and such variations from what is herein described and claimed, not involving invention, I desire to be considered as within the ambit of the appended claims, for example the application of my improvements to a hot-blast lantern will be self evident to those skilled in the art to which the invention appertains.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. In a tubular lantern, the combination with its air tubes and air chamber, of endless bails encircling the air tubes, said bails being partially embedded in said tubes and being partially embedded in the Wall of the air chamber.
2. A tubular lantern having air tubes, an and a handle, the terminal portions of which air chamber and strengthening Webs carare engaged in said loops. 10 ried by said tubes in combination With end- Signed at Hamilton, Ontario, this 21st less bails shrunk into grooves formed parday of February, 1912. 5 tially in said air tubes and partially in said JAMES VRIGHT.
air chamber, said bails being bent horizon- In the presence oftally to aline with the strengthening Webs ALFRED T. BRATTON, and terminating in vertically disposed loops, SYDNEY BURGESS.
