YLAMP SHADE.
APPLICATION FILED JUNE 13, I918.
LAMP-SHADE.
To allwhomz'tmay concern: 2
Be it known that I, Isaac B. BEALES, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Hasbrouck Heights, in the county of Bergen and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Lamp-Shade, of which the following isa full, clear, and exact description.
Among the principal objects which the present invention has in view are: to permit the shipment of shades of the character mentioned in compact form; to provide means for readily assembling the separable parts of the shade; to provide means for connecting the separable elements in close relation to avoid rattling, and to simplify and reduce the cost of construction.
Drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a shade constructed and arranged in accordance with the present invention, the figure showing one of the panels as during the operation of installing it to complete the shade:
Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same, the section being taken as on the line 2-2 in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a perspective View showing on a reduced scale, a modified form of the shade;
Fig. 4 is a detail view in section showing on an enlarged scale, the junction of two of the panels disposed as in Fig. 2, the section being taken as on the line 4l 1 in Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a detail view on an enlarged scale showing in section a fragment of the joint formed in making the shade shown in Fig. 3, the section being taken as on the line 55 in Fig. 3;
Fig, 6 is a detail view showing a further modified form of the joint of the panels used in frames of the character shown;
Fig. 7 is a further modified form of the said joint.
Description.
As seen in the drawings, the shade is made up of a series of panels. The panels are separably united and are held associated as in service by means of a rigid wire frame 12. The frame 12 has a series of radials 13 and a central supporting ring 14. For engaging the frame 12, the panels have each an extension 15, which as shown in the draw ings, is folded over the laterals of the frame 12. The panels have a central translucent Specification of Letters Fatent. I P tgnted M31, 30, Application filed June 13, 1918. Serial No. 239,799.
and preferably decorated center 16. The center 16 may be constructed from parchment or glass as preferred, also the center may be homogeneous or formed of parts united and arranged in artistic fashioning as in the'so-called leaded-glass constructions. The centers are held in metal frames 17 and in channels formed by groove members 18 at the inner side of the panels. Any
suitable form of assembling the centers 16 and the frames 17 may be employed.
While I prefer to construct the groove member 18 as a homogeneous element, it will be understood that the lower extension 19fof the said member may be parted at the ends thereof from the side extensions of the grooved members to permit the introduction of the center 16 into the groovesformed by the lateral extensions to be there held by turning up the extension 19 to thereafter hold the center. 16 in service relation to the frame and to the completed shade. panels of the shade when provided with their respective centers are united for assemblage to form the completed shade by means of the slip oints shown in Figs. 4: to
7, inclusive.
As aboveindicated, when assemblage has been effected, the panels are held 1n servlce relation by turning the extensions 15 with which the panels are provided over the laterals of the frame 12. The shade is placed in service by means usually employed for 1 installing articles of a similar character, to
wit, the weight of the shade is carried on the ring 14: of the frame 12.
When it is desired to ship the shade, it is separated into its elements by disengaging the extensions 15 with the laterals of the frame 12, and slipping the panels out of engagement with each other. It will be observed that when the panels are so disengaged from each other and from the frame 12, they may be packed together with the said frame 12 to form a small package and one in which the elements may be easily protected from breakage during transportation. At the same time, it is obvious that the package having arrived at its destination, a novice with very little instruction may reassemble the elements to form the shade for service.
In Fig. 4:, the most simplified form of slip joint employed for connecting the panels is shown. Each panel is provided with lateral extensions bent to form outwardlyopening channel members 20 and inwardlya back of the frame 18 to the free edge of the flange forming the channel 21 and to the back of the channel member 20 when the flange thereof is held in the channel formed by the inwardly-opening channel member 21.. It is obvious from this arrangement of the parts that the members 20 and 21 can only be separated by sliding the same endwise of the laterals of the frame, and that when this is prevented by the supports afforded by the extensions 15, the panels are held approximately rigid in service relation. In Fig. 5 of the drawings, a slip joint is shown as having at one side of the panel an open tubular channel edge 22. At the opposite side of the panel, a rolled rib-like mem ber 23. is formed ofiset from the face of the frame of the panel to enter and fill the interior of the channel edge 22. This form of slip joint is preferred when constructing the shades in forms such as shown in Fig. 3, the spheroidal shape being better accommodated by the joint shown. I V
A similar joint is formed in Fig. 6 adapted for use on a rectangular form of shade.
In Fig. 7, a further modified form of slip joint is shown, wherein corner members or fillets 24 are formed. These members are shaped in cross section to any desired form the fillet are juxtaposed to the center edges of the frame, thereby securing a tight joint for the construction.
WVhile the method of assembling the elements constituting the lamp shade has been described as requiring that the extension 15 of each panel be overturned on the laterals of the frame,in some instances and particularly where the frame is more rigid, I prefer to turn the extensions 15 when constructing the panels, and to assemble the panels before disposing the frame having the laterals 12 in position, the said laterals then dropping into the channels formed by the overturned extensions 15.
A lamp shade comprising a series of metal-edge panels, each'of said panels having a ductile extension at thetop thereof;-
means for slidably connecting the juxtaposed ediges of said panels; and a rigid sup-
