UMBRELLA Ann cann HOLDER.

To all whom it mag concern:

Be it known that I, SIDNEY C. WALLACE, a citizen of-the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook, Stateoflllinois,

have invented a new and useful Umbrellaholder for umbrellas, canes, golf sticks-and the like, and an object of the invention is to provide a simple, eflicient, and practical holder of this kind, which is embedded in the wall, and is provided with a drainage system, for carrying oif the drippings from the umbrellas.

Another object of the invention is to provide an umbrella holder of this kind, which is pivoted in a recess in the wall, whereby the holder may be swung outwardly on its pivot for the reception of umbrellas and the like, and then subsequently returned into said recess, whereby the drippings may be carried off through the drainage system.

In practical fields the details of construction may necessitate alterations falling within the scope of what is claimed.

The invention comprises further features and combination of parts as hereinafter set forth shown in the drawings. 1

In the drawings Figure 1 is a view in front elevation, showing the improved holder constructed in accordance with the invention.

Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on line 22 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 1 is a transverse sectional view on lineal- 1 of Fig. 2.

Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view on line 55 of Fig. 2. 7

Referring more especially to the drawings 1 designates a recess or cavity, which is formed in the wall, and whichis semi-circular in cross section, as shown in Figs. 3, 4: and 5. Arranged in the bottom of this cavity or recess is a sheet metal drain pan 2, the bottom of which is inclined from the rear and the sides downwardly toward the front of said recess, 'andterminates in the drain pipe 3, which may terminate at any suitable location, for carrying off the drippings and refuse. The front wall 4 of this Specification of Letters fatent.

pan has a bearing 5 at its uppered'ge for the reception of the vertical rod .orshaft 6, there being a collar 7 secured upon said rod or shaft by means of the pin 8, to prevent The upper end of the shaft or rod is mounted in a suitableibearing 9 of the upper wall of the recess or cavity. Also secured upon the shaft or rod adjacent its lower end, by means of the pin 10 is a collar 11, on which the bot- ;tom plate 12, of the umbrella or cane holder proper-is supported. The holder proper has an upper plate 13, through which the shaft or rod 6 extends, and which upper plate 13 is connected tothe lower plate 12 by' the vertical rods 14, thereby holding the two plates in spaced relations, one above the other. These plates are semi-circular, in order to correspond with and fit the recess or cavity, so that the holder may be thrown into the recess, after the umbrellas and the like are placed therein. The lower plate 12 has an annular flange 15, and its upper surface 16 is conical shape or dished, so as to carry off the drippings through the central opening 17, from which the drippings pass down the inclined pan 2 and out through the drain pipe 3. It is to be noted that the upper plate 13 of the holder is provided with a plurality of openings 18, through which the umbrellas, canes and the like are inserted- It is to be noted that several of the openings 18 open to the simi-circular edge of said plate 13, by virtue of the restricted or contracted portions 19 of said openings. These restricted or contracted portions facilitate the insertion of the canes, golf sticks and the like. In other words the canes and the like may be inserted in the openings 18 sidewise, instead of inserting the canes or the like downwardly through the openings. The

front wall of the pan 2 is secured adjacent to the baseboard 20 of the wall as shown.

The invention having been set forth what is claimed as new and useful is 1. In a holder for umbrellas and the like, the combination of a cavity semi-circular in cross section and formed in a side wall and a conical drain pan having a drain pipe secured in the bottom of the cavity, of a holder corresponding in shape and fitting said cavity, and means for pivotally mounting the holder in the cavity, may be moved pivotally into and from the cavity, said holder comprising upper and lower plates, the lower plate having a conl- 7 whereby the holder cal upper surface and provided with a central drain opening, the upper plate having a plurality of openings for the reception of the umbrellas and the like, and rods connecting said upper and lower plates.

2. In a holder for umbrellas and the like, the combination of a cavity semi-circular in cross section and formed in a side wall and a conical drain pan having a drain pipe secured in the bottom of the cavity,of a holder corresponding in shape and fitting said cavity, and means for pivotally mounting the holder in the cavity, whereby the holder may be moved pivotally into and from the V cavity, said holder comprising upper and lower plates, the lower platehaving a conical upper surface and provided with a centraldrain opening, the upper plates having a ment of the shaft, said shaft extending 25 through the front edges of the upper and lower plates and provided with means to prevent axial movement of the holder.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this Specification in the presence of 30 two subscribing witnesses.
