wueutoz lzmf 35g] /l I r I J UNITED STATES WILEY LUMBARD, OF LEVASY, MISSOURI.
DESPATCH-HOLDER.
Application filed April 22, 1919.
To all whom t may con cem Be it known that I, WILEY LUMBARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Levasy, in the county of Jackson and tate of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Despatch-Holder, 'of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to despatch holders, one of its objects being to provide an illuminated device of this character having means for holding the usual hoop and which will enable a trainman to see readily the hoop with the instructions or message thereon and to transfer it in the dark as well as in the light.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts which will be hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claim, it being understood that various changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention as set forth in the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred forms of the invention have been shown.
Figure 1 is an elevation of the device in position upon a standard and showing, by broken lines, the position of hoops held thereby, one pair of arms being shown by full and by dotted lines in two different positions.
Fig. 2 is a horizontal structure.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference, l5 designates a standard provided with parallel arms 16 having lamps 17 for illuminating them and these arms may carry spring clips 18 for engaging and detachably holding a hoop 19 or the like. Additional arms 20 having hoop engaging clips 21, are mounted to swing on the standard and a section through the Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented N ov. 22, 1921.
serial No. 291,795.
spring 22 serves to hold said arms 20 normally between and parallel with the arms 16. By placing a hoop 23 in engagement with the clips 21, and swinging the arms 20, with the hoop 23 to position shown by full lines in Fig. L and then placing the hoop 19 in place within the clips 18 the said hoops will lap, as shown, and will hold the spring 22 under tension with the arms 20 extending oppositely to the arms 16. When thus po` sitioned the hoop preferably presses against a lug 24 on the standard. Then the hoop 19 is pulled out of position the hoop 23 is released therefrom and will swing, with the arms 20 to position between the arm 16 where the hoop is in position to be pulled readily away from its holding clips. A device such as shown is especially designed for use where despatches, etc., are to be delivered to a double header or a train having two locomotives.
That is claimed is Means for transferring despatches, including a standard, spaced arms ixably connected thereto and constituting a loop holder, connected arms mounted to swing on the standard and between the stationary arms, spring means connected to the movable arms for shifting them normally to position between and parallel with the stationary arms, and means upon the stationary and movable arms for engaging hoops and holding them to the arms and in lapped relation whereby a hoop held between the stationary arms and engaging a hoop held by the movable arms will hold said movable arms out of normal oit' the spring.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto atlixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
WILEY LUMBARD.
