THOMAS SMITH, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN LANTERNS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 139,030, dated May 20, 1873; application filed March 10, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, THOMAS SMITH, of Cleveland, in the 'county of Guyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements on Lanterns, of which the following is a full and complete description:
Figure l is a side View of the frame or guard of a lantern. Fig. 2 is a top view, having the cap removed.
Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the several views.
This invention has for its object the construction of the bail-ears of a lantern outof the same wire which forms one of the rings of the guard or frame, as hereinafter described.
In the drawing, A A represent the ribs of the guard, and B O the middle and upper rings, to which the ribs are secured. E are the ears to which the bail F is attached. Said ears are formed out of the same piece of wire constituting the ring 0, as will be seen in Fig. 2. This is done by doubling the wire at certain points, forming thereby loops or eyes,
the lantern is carried directly by the frame instead of the cap G in the ordinary way, which, if the clasp whereby it is secured to the frame becomes much worn or loose, it is liable to become unclasped and thereby endanger the safety of thelamp andfurthermore by having the ears extend high-above the cap or reflector, the weight of the lantern is, in
Claim;
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
