To all whom. may concern: I

Be it known that I, WALTER A. a citizen of the United States residing at the city of St. Louis, State of lldiss'ourh'have invented a certain new and useful Improves -ment in "Reflectors, of which the following is j a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to. which it appertains to make and usethe same, reference being had to the accompanymg drawings, forming part of this specification, -m w "chv Figure 1 is a side elevational view of my ful improvement in reflectors for use in.

known as a lam' guard, the

and the drawing, the electric lamp is arranged in the socket onthe end of ahandle, and the lamp guard shown be well known commercial form concerning which no claim is made here. This lamp guard-is preferably provided witha hook by which itmay be suspended. The wires leading to the lamp extend through the bottom of the handle,:-

the whole construction being simply shaped and convenient.

front elevational view; of the Patented Sept. 9, 1919.

The numeral '8 indicates a securing bail,

'crimped as shown, and pivotally mounted in openings 1n the opposite-edges of the reflector. The central portion of this bail is bent to "form a hook 8 which, when the reflector is placed in position, may. be swung upwardly to engage the middle spacing wire of the lamp guard, thus securely holding the reflector in position. The purpose ofcrimp ng the ball is to enable it to be easily adjusted as to its length when the reflector is used on lamp guards ofdifi'erent sizes. l3y elongating the bail the hook will move 111 a larger .arc-andcan thus accommodate the reflector to a larger sized lamp guard.

-While I have described my invention as areflector'for guarded lamps wherein said reflector is preferably; made of polished metal, it is obvious that when'opaque, the

reflector can also be used as a deflector where high powered electric lamps areemployed for the purpose of obscuring the direct rays of light from the user.

changes in the size, formand construction of thevarious parts of my improved reflector may be. made and substituted for those herein shown and described, without depart' ing from the spirit of my invention, the scope of) which 1sset forth.in the appended claims.
