Applieauon mea Januay'as, Ien.- senal No'. 608,231.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it knownthat I, MARION I. RANDALL, a citizen of the United States, residing'at Bellingham, in the county of Whatcom and State Aof Washington, have invented new and useful Improvements in Lamp-Cord Reels, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to lam cord reels. The obj ect of the invention is tlie provision of a simple, eiiicient and durable reel of the character described whereby the lamp cord maly be lengthened or shortened as desired. urther objects of the invention will appear as the following specific description is read in connection with the accompanying drawing which forms a part o'f thisappli-A cation, and in which:
Figure l is a side elevation. Fig. 2 is an end elevation with arts broken away. Fig. 3 is a detail longitu inal section.
Referring more particularly to the drawing 1 represents a support of any suitable type from which de end the supportin brackets 2 and 3, the Ifatter being provid with a central aperture to receive t e pivoting pintle 4 of the drum shaft and the former beinuf provided with a square slot 5 to receive the square shank 6 of the ratchet shaft. The drum shaft is hollow and has operated ratchet shaft 6 which is provided with a notched boss 7 adapted to be engaged by the pivoted pawls'8 so as to lock the drum shaft in operated position. The drum shaft is shown as provided with a plurality of collars 8, 9 and 10, the latter two of which form a winding drum for the lam cord 11 and the former two of which orm a drum for the reception of an operating v011 a tension weight'l'l and'then ar` u causes it to pro tion of the lamp cord which passes through an aperture. 13 formed in the collar 9.
The lamp cord has one end passed through the support 1 and passes over a pulle1 4 n the drum shaft between the dollars 9 and' 10, through the a erture 13 and then around the drum sha between the collars 8 and 9. It is attached to the drum shaft intermediate the ends of the drum so as to prevent slipping upon the drumsand thereby shortening t e weight supporting end. By pulling down upon the lamp. the operat-` ing cord 1s unwound and consequentl the weight supporting end -is also unwoun and by givin lamps an spring. The weight being mounted as shown maintains a constant tension on the cord and erly wind on the drum.
Havin' thus escribed the invention, what is claim 'is- The combination with a support, of a lai-11pv cord reel attached thereto and com rising bearin brackets, a spring retract drum journa ed in said brackets, said drum being divided into sections, tending downwardly from the support and then upwardly to form a loop, it being then wound upon lone of the drum sections 1n one direction and o positely wound u on the other section and from,andwa wei ht having a roller supported by the loop in t e cord.- In testimony whereoi` I aiiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.,
MARION I. RANDALL.
