1D s'ra'r CHARLES E. JONES, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO METAL ARTS & CRAFTS 00., OF
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS.
LIGHTING-FIXTURE.
Application filed August 31, 1914.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES E. JONES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Lighting-Fixtures, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of devices which are designed to support an indirect lighting shade.
" Devices of this kind, with which I am familiar, require a special construction of the flat shade when used in combination therewith, and are incapable of attachment to fixtures already installed and in use, without disconnecting and re-wiring same; or with ceiling plates or beamlights.
My invention has for its object to provide a fixture which can be used with standard types of fixtures without necessitating any change therein, and without requiring a shade of any particular type.
My means of accomplishing the foregoing objects may be more readily understood by having reference to the accompanying drawing which is hereunto annexed and is a part of the specification, in which:
Figure 1, is a side elevation partly shown in section to illustrate my invention.
Fig. 2, is an enlarged sectional detail view showing a modified form of the device when used in connection with a ceiling plate, ceiling light, beam light or other use where an electric socket receptacle with a separable bushing or collar is provided for securing same in its installation.
Similar reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the entire description.
As shown in the drawing, 1, indicates a bell shade, preferably formed of translucent glass. It is secured in position by means of a securing member 2, which is flared outwardly as at 3, and has coacting therewith a lower shade-clamping member 4:, 2 being held together by means of a threaded bolt 5 which passes through a nut 26, secured to the bottom of the member 2.
It is obvious that by tightening the bolt the two members 2 and 4, are drawn together thus clamping the shade 1, securely in place.
A frame comprising a plurality of upwardly extending members 6, preferably formed of wire or any other suitable material, extends upwardly from the clamping member 2, the upper ends of the wire Specification of Letters Patent.
Serial No. 8, 59,282.
6 being bent outwardly as at 7, and adapted to enter into the perforations 8, formed in a sleeve 9, which is adapted to receive the regular socket serving to prevent disengagement of the frame wires 6 with the perforations 8.
The sleeve 9, is provided with an outwardly extending flange 15 adapted to telescope within the shade holder 10, which is of the usual construction, and is provided with thumb screws 11, which are adapted to engage the upper part of the flat shade l2, and hold it in position, or when used without the flat shade 12, will by its size rest on and be supported by the thumb screws thus enabling its use with or without the flat shade 12.
The socket 21 indicated by dotted lines, has secured at its upper end an eye-bolt 13 of the usual construction, this eye-bolt being provided with a threaded extension 14, which is adapted to engage the upper part of the socket 21 so that by tightening it, it is held securely in position, though it will be apparent to persons skilled in the art that any support which is provided with a threaded extension will serve equally well.
It Will be apparent from an examination of the drawing that the flange 15 rests upon the upper part of the shade 12, which holds it securely in position, and that this flange 15 used without the flat shade 12 will itself rest on the thumb screws and support the balance of the structure permitting the use of the lower shade alone, or of both lower and upper shade; and of being installed in any standard shade holding device before or after said shade holding device is itself installed and attached to a chandelier.
The modified form shown in Fig. 2, shows the device used in connection with a ceiling plate, ceiling light, beam light or other lighting device, where a socket receptacle with a separable bushing or collar for in stalling and securing same is used, which is provided with the ordinary porcelain re ceptacle 16. In this case the sleeve 17 is provided with an inwardly extending flange 18, which extends between the inner faces of a shoulder 19, (formed on the bushing or collar of the socket receptacle) and the metallic surface which supports and in which the socket receptacle is installed, the bushing orcollar of the receptacle in this instance serving the same purpose as the regu- Patented July 15, 1919.
lar socket in Fig; l, i. e. preventing the disengagement of the bent part 7 of the members 6 from the perforations 8.
It will be apparent to persons skilled in the art that by the use of my invention any of the ordinary types of lighting fixtures can be converted into indirect lighting without the necessity of employing a skilled mechanic, or by disconnecting electric sockets already installed and connected, and that it is very inexpensive'to manufacture and avoids the necessity of employing any particular kind of fiat shade, but can be used in connection with the socket and shade holder already in service where it is desired to have two shades, or to have one upturned shade alone, the upper one operating to refiect the light downwardly and the lower one to protect the eyes from the direct and sharp rays of light of a lighted electric bulb.
Having described my invention what I regard as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: r
1. In a device of the character described, the combination with a support for an inverted shade, said support having an upwardly extending frame, of a sleeve having perforations formed therein to be engaged by the upper ends of the frame, a shade holder, means mounted within said sleeve,
to prevent the disengagement of the said frame therefrom, and means to secure the said sleeve in position.
2.7 Ina device of the character described, the combination with a support for an inverted shade, said support having an upwardly extending frame, of a sleeve, there being perforations formed therein engaged by the upper ends of the frame, means mounted within said sleeve to prevent the 40 disengagement of the said frame therefrom, and means to secure said sleeve'in position.
3. In a device ,of the character described the combination with a support for an inverted shade said support having an upwardly extending frame, of a sleeve, means to detachably secure said frame to said sleeve, means mounted ,Within said sleeve to prevent-the disengagement of the said frame, a lamp socket which coacts with said sleeve to hold it in position.
4. In a dgvice of the character described, the combination with a support for an inverted shade said support being provided with an upwardly extending frame, of a 55 sleeve, means to detachably secure said frame to said sleeve, means mounted Within said sleeve to prevent the disengagement of the said frame therefrom, said means being adapted to receive the lamp.
5. In a shade support, a sleeve having apertures therein, a frame having right angled end portions extending through the apertures of the sleeve, means adjacent the lower end' of the frame for removably se- 6 curing a shade thereto, and removable means extending through the sleeve for engaging the frame adjacent the right angled end portions, for holding the right angled end portions within the apertures of the sleeve. 6
In testimony whereof, I have signed the foregoing specification.
