HELEN A. GOLDTHWAI'IE, OF SACO, MAINE.
CONDUCTING-CORD HOLDER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HELEN A. GoLD- THWAITE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Saco, in the county of York and State of Maine, have invented new and useful Improvements in Conductin'g- Cord Holders,.of which the following is a specification.
'lhis invention relates to electric fixtures, particularly to those of the portable type, and has for its object the provision of a device for holding the conducting cord leading to an electric flat iron and which is so constructed as to hold the cord away from the iron so that it cannot come into contact therewith while yet allowing suflicient freedom of movement to the cord to permit ready use of the iron without danger of upsetting the holding device.
An important object is the provision of a portabl stand of this character, the parts of which may be quickly and easily disassembled for convenience in transportation or storage, and. which may be quickly and easily set up for use, and clamped upon a table or other support.
A further object is the provision of a device of this character which will be simple and inexpensive in manufacture, highly eflicient and durable in use, and a general improvement in the art.
With the above and other objects and advantages in View, the invention consists in the details of construction to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of the device ready for use,
Fig. 2 is a simliar view showing the vari-' ous parts disconnected andshowing a modi- .fied form of the base, and
Fig. 3 is a sectional view through the complete assembled device showing a flat base.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral 5 designates a supporting base which is formed of suitable size and of heavy material and which is provided in its upper face with a central threaded opening within which is engaged. the lower threaded end 6 of a tubular upright 7. Slidably engaged within the upright 7 is a tubular upright section 8 which is provided adjacent its lower portion with an annular bead 9 engaging upon the top of the section 7 for preventing the section 8 from being Specification of Letters Patent.

- Application filed December 10, 1918. Serial No. 266,164.
the other endmost link of which is secured a coil spring 16 terminating at its free end in a hook 17 upon which the conducting .cord leading to a'flat iron or other electrically operated device is engaged.
'1: he parts are assembled as shown and descrlbed and the conducting cord engaged upon the hook 17. The-devic will then serve to hold the conducting cord in an elevated position so that it will-be out of the way of the operator using the electric iron or'other device and so that the cord cannot come into contact with th electrical device as so frequently happens when no support is provided for the cord and which often results in injury to the cord. The provision of the spring 16 is an important feature as it allows for limited movement of the cord in conformity with the movement of the electric iron during use thereof. The fact that the base 5 is comparatively large and heavy gives to the device a great degree of stability 50 that there is little likelihood of its becoming upset when tension is exerted upon the conducting cord engaged upon the hook 17. If desired, the base 5 may be screwed upon a table or ironing board.
In Fig. 1 I have shown the supporting- From the foregoing description and a study of the drawings it will be apparent that I have thus provided an extremely simple device of the character described which will efficiently perform all of the functions for whichit is intended, which will be simple and inexpensive in manufacture though readily capable of a considerable degree of ornamentation so as to present a neat and pleasing appearance.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it will of course be readily understood that I reserve the right to make such changes in the form, construction and arrangement of parts as will not depart from the spirit of the invention or the-scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described-my invention, I claim Y A conducting cord holder comprising a base having a clamping member formed thereon for engagement upon the edge of a shelf or table, a tubular'upright rising from said base, a second tubular upright telescopically engaged within said first named upright, a cap member detachably and telescopically engaged within'the upper end of gaged upon said hook, and a spring dependmg from said chain and having one end engaging within the other endmost link of said chain, the other end of said spring bemg formed as a hook adapted for detachable engagement with a conducting cord.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
HELEN A. GOLDTHWAITE.
