DENNIS J. HEAGANY AND FRED W. BOETTCHER, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOBS TO THE D. J. HEAGANY MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A
CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS.
MIRROR HOLDER OR STAND.
Application'filed July 24, 1915. Serial No. 41,630.
I To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, DENNIS j. HEAGANY tremely United States, and residents of Chicago, in
the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mirror Holders or Stands, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in stands for supporting frameless mirrors or other articles.
The principal object of this invention is to provide a clamping mechanism of .ex-
simple construction, which is mounted on a supporting standard and which can be readily applied to, or removed from, a frame less mirror, or any other article of similar shape.
Another object of the invention is to provide an extensible standard, and to support the clamping mechanism thereon so that the same can be positioned at difierent angles.
, A still further object of the invention is to provide a mirror supporting stand of the character described, which is positive in manufacture.
These and other objects will in part be obvious, and will in part be hereinafter more fully disclosed. I
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a rear elevation of a circular frameless mirror supported by a stand constructed in accordance 'with our invention; Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof; Fig. 3.is a detail perspective view of one of the clamping clips; Fig. 4; is a rear elevation showing a slightly modified form of the mirror clamping mechanism; Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of, one
of the clamping clips shown in Fig. 4, and. Fig. 6' is a detail view showing a modified form of adjusting means.
Like reference numerals designate corre sponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, our invention comprises a base 5, which supports an extensible standard consisting of two members 6 and 7 respectively. The member 6 carries a set screw 8 for locking the member 7 in any adjusted or extended position. In Figs. 1 an 2 we have shown a .frameless circular mirror 9, which is supported on the Specification of Letters Patent. Patented J mg 2'3, 19116,,
standard or stand by a novel clamping mechanism which is attached to the extensible member 7 of said standard. This clamping mechanism comprises a plate 10, and extending laterally from the center of this plate is a bracket 11, which is formed from a flat piece of metal and has one end thereof split to form attaching feet 12-12,
said feet being secured to the plate 10 by screws 13, or other suitable-fastening means.
The outer end of this bracket 11 is fitted within a fork 14, carried by the upper end of the extension member 7, and these parts are secured against relative movement by a set screw 15, or other suitable means. By. means of this connection, the plate 10 can be positioned at different angles, as will be readily understood. v
In order to clamp the mirror 9 to the plate 10, there is provided a plurality of clips 16-16 which respectively engage over the periphery of the mirror at diametrically opposite points, and these clips are respectively connected to the plate 10 by adjusting means to permit said clips to be clamped to the. mirror. prises connected diverging arms l7--l7, which lie against the back of the mirror,
and the outer end of each arm is bent for- 20-20 which are respectively provided with openings. The openings of each pair of studs 19 and 20 are respectively formed with threads of opposite pitches, and a turn-rod 21 has its ends correspondingly threaded and fitted into these openin' s. By rotating these rods in onedirection, t e clips 16 are moved away fromfthe'plate, and by rotating saidrods in the opposite direction the clips are moved toward the plate, thus releasing the mirror from the stand or clamping the same erably arranged above and below the plate, and that the books of each clip are on opposite sides of a line passing through the cen- 10d thereto. It will be noted that clips are prefter of said mirror. The plate 10 is also disposed against the back of the mirror to give a good bearing therefor. By means of the above construction, the mirror is held against lateral movements relative to the support.
In Figs. 4 and 5 we have shown our clamping mechanism as being slightly changed so as to lit a rectangular shaped mirror 9 In this form, each clip l6 'comprises a U-shaped member having parallel arms 17 17 which are bent at their outer ends to form hooks 18-18. The connecting portion between the arms 17 is provided with a stud 19*.
In Fig. 6 we have shown the clamping clip 16 with a stud 19 which isprovided with a non-threaded opening for receiving the turn-rod 21 This rod is threaded at its lower end for engagement with the threaded opening of the stud 20, and is provided at its upper end with a slotted head 21* for facilitating the turning of said rod.
From the foregoing, it will be observed. thatframeless mirrors and other articles of various outlines, and of different sizes, may be readily applied to or removed from our improved support or stand.
It is obvious that minor changes in the details of construction and the arrangement of parts ,may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described our invention, What we claim is:
In a mirror holder or stand, the combination with a main upright standard having means to maintain it in a vertical position, of another standard mounted on the upper portion of the first named standard for rotary and vertical adjustment with respect thereto, means to fix the adjustable standard ing a centrally and rearwardly projecting arm pivotally connected to the upper end of the adjustable standard for movement in a vertical plane,- said. plate adapted to rest at its front face againstthe central and rear portion of a mirror, and provided with spaced apart and screw-threaded apertured studs, a plurality of clips each having a plur'ality of arms, each of said arms having a hook at its outer end to engage the'edge of a mirror, a screw-threaded apertured stud carried by each of said clips, and screwthreaded adjustable devices respectively connecting said studs-of the clips and the studs of the plate to clamp said clips against the edge of a mirror.
