This invention relates generally to eleotric holders for'indirect lighting and more particularly to a holder provided withja object being to provide a device by means of which the holder can be attached to a socket already wired to a zitnre, thus time and labor.

With this object in view my invention consists essentially in providing a' separable socket shell holder together with means forv securing the sections together, Isaid sections having the shade holding means attached thereto.

The invention consists also in certain deof construction hereinafter described.

and pointed out in the claims.

ln the drawings forming a part of this specification Figure l is a sectional elevation illustrating theparticular application of my invention. Fig. 2 is a View of the separable socket shell holder separated, and F ig. 3 is a detail view showing the same `arranged l :about-.the socket and shell.

se y,

ln thisy class of devices heretofore ein 4ployed it has been impossible to attach the holden-without. wiring in the socket on the 'isture afterward, but this was very inconvizifiient and consumed considerable time and labor and with the idea of overcoming this defect l produce a separable socket shell holder A divided longitudinally as shown, said sections'being so shaped and sized that when brought together they provide a complete cover for the socket shell. At the upper ond ample provision is made forthe socket bushing and at the lower ends the sections are provided with mating or continuous' threads to receive a' threaded ring B after lthe socket and shell has been inserted in the holder for the purpose of binding the holder upon the 4socia-et and shell. Arms Cv 4extend from the sections of the separable holder and at their lower ends' are connected to an. inner .dish L, which dish l?? is pro vided with. a centrally extending threaded Specification of Letters Patent.

saving both annotare nominal opening of the shade or glassware and the outer cup F fits upon the under side thereof and a nut Gr screwed upon ythey extending end of the threaded4 post securely bindsthe shade or glassware between the inner disk and outer cup. i

In Fig. 1 of the drawing I have shown the socket of the keyless type, but in Fig. 3 l haveshown the socket provided with a pull chain and it will therefore be readily understood that my improvement can be used in connection with any of the well known forms of socketsnow in use.

When it is desired to attach .my device to the socket it is only necessary to unscrew the ring and separate `the sections suiliciently toit-ako the socket therebetween and the ring is then tightened up securely fastening the socket within the holder and preventing any possible dislocation ofthe same. The glassware can be attached either before or after connecting tothe socket.

The ease and rapidity w-ith yhich this device can be attached to sockets already ywired and connected to fixtures renders this improvement highly important and elicient.

lt will thusibe seen that I provide a novel construction of holder capable of carrying out all of the objects hereinbefore `referred to. 4

What I claim is l. A. separable shell forming a socket holder, armsextending from sections of the holder, and shadeholding means attached t the opposite ends of said arms.

2. A separable shell 'forming a socket f holder., arms extending from sections of the holder, shade holding means attached to the opposite ends of said arms and a ring for clamping the sections of shell fholder together.

3., A longitudinally divided holder adapted to receive .a socketshell therebetween, a Iclamping ring adapted to fit about said holder and clamp the sections together, arms extending from said sections, and shade holding means attached to theopposite ends of-said arms. s

fl. A socket yor shell holder formed of longitudinally separable sections, a ring -for clamping said parts together, v*arms extending from said separable sections, an inner dish connected to saidfarms, and an `outer cup or disk and means for connecting said disks together and holding a shade therebetween.

5. A socket or shell holder formed of 1ongitudinally separable sections, threaded at one end,`a threaded ring for binding Said sections together, arms connected to said seetions, an inner disk connected to the opposite ends of said arms, an outer cup or disk and means for uniting said disk and cup and securing a shade therebetween.

6. A. socket or shell holder formed of longitudinally separable sections, a ring for bindingsaid sections together about. a socket, arms connected tosaid sections. :m inner disk connected to ,the opposite ends of said arms, said inner disk having a centrally extended threaded post, an outer cup through which the threaded post extends and a nut secured upon the extended thread end and binding' the inner and outer disks together as set forth.
