A TTOR/VEYS COLUMBIA PLANOGRAFH couwAslflNd'loN. n. 2.
IVAR MEURLING, 0F BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
FLOWER-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 12, 1914.
Application filed. July 11, 1913. Serial No. 778,536.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, IVAR MEURLING, a subject of the Crown of Sweden, and a resident of Brooklyn, Kings county, and State of New York, United States of America, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Flower-Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, formlng a part thereof.
My invention relates to a holder for a flower or a buttonhole bouquet, and it has special reference to such as comprise a small tubular receptacle.
One object of my invention is to provide a device of the character above indicated that shall be particularly simple and durable in construction and adapted to be manufactured in very large quantities at small expense.
Another object of my invention is to pro vide adjustable means for securing the flowers in position in order to accommodate not only bouquets consisting of either a small or a relatively large number of flowers but also flowers or diflerent sizes and kinds.
Other objects and advantages of my invention will be set forth hereinafter.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a flower holder arranged and constructed in accordance with my invention. A plan view of the same holder is shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the holder of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a partial front view corresponding to Fig. 1 of a modified holder which also embodies my invention.
Referring to Figs. 1, 2 and 3, the device here shown comprises a metal tube a which tapers slightly toward its closed lower end, and is elliptical in cross section. At the top it is provided with a flange b which is oblique relative to the longitudinal axis of the device and is adapted to lie flat on the lapel of the coat or other garment.
Attached to the flange which is substantially square or rectangular in form is a slider c which is preferably formed by a stamping or punching process from sheet metal and consists of a flat strip, the ends of which are turned under the edges of the flange b. The slider has a lateral projection at intermediate its ends which extends into the mouth of the tube a.
In using the holder a flower or bouquet is inserted in the tube as in a vase and the slider is adjusted to such a position as to hold the stem firmly in position, the underturned ends of the slider being arranged to clamp the edges of the flange b in order that the slider will remain in the position to which it is adjusted. The slider cannot be removed from the flange by reason of the projection (Z which engages the periphery of the opening in the flange.
In the modification of Fig. 4, which may specifically be considered to be preferable, the flange instead of being a true rectangle or square has its edges 6 curved in the arc of a circle described about a point near the middle of the opposite side as a center. The slider c of the other figures is here replaced by a swinging member f which is pivotally connected to the flange b at h, the opposite end being bent under the curved edge of the flange as in the other form so that the member f may be adjusted by swinging it about its point of pivot it within limits which are determined by a projection 70 which corresponds to projection d of the other figures.
Other modifications may be effected with in the spirit and scope of my invention and I only intend to be limited by the appended claims.
What I claim is:
1. A flower holder consisting of a tubular body having a top flange oblique to its longitudinal plane, and an adjustable member slidably mounted on the flange for holding one or more flowers in position with their stems extending into the tube.
2. A flower holder consisting of a tubular body havin a top flange oblique to its lonitudinal plane and a slider comprising a flat strip having one of its ends turned under the edge of the flange, and means for limiting the extent of movement of the slider on the flange.
3. A flower holder consisting of a tapered tubular body elliptical in cross-section closed at one end having a to flange oblique to its longitudinal plane an a slider comprising a flat strip having one of its ends turned under the edge of the flange, and a lateral projection extending downwardly into the mouth of the tube for limiting the adjustment of the slider on the flange.
4:. A flower holder consisting of a tubular body having a plane top flange oblique to its longitudinal plane and an adjustable member pivotally connected near one of its ends to the flange and adapted to swing across my hand this 10 day of July, 1913, in the the mouth of the tube for1 holding one or presence of two subscribing Witnesses. more flowers in position Wit 1 their stems extending into the tube, the other end of said IVAR MEURLING' 5 adjustable member being turned under the WVitnesses:
