ASH RECEIVER.
APPLICATION FILED SEPT-17, 1920.
Patented Mar. 7, 1922.
PATENT OFFICE.
FREDERIC E. AYER, OF AKRON, OHIO.
ASH RECEIVER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. '7, 1922.
Application filed September 17, 1920. Serial No. 410,907.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERIC E. AYER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Akron, in the county of Summit and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash Receivers, of
which the following is a specification.
' for tobacco users, and has for its particular This invention pertains to an ash receiver object theprovision of a device of this character which may be attached readily to an article of furniture or other convenient object, the construction of the receiver being such that the ash receptacle will always remain in an upright position irrespective of the position of. the object to which it is attached, or the otherparts of the device.
It is further sought to provide an attrac- 7 tive device consisting of few parts of comparatively simple design whereby the same may be easily manufactured in large quantities, or repaired should it get out of order.
The accompanying drawing illustrates a practical embodiment of the invention, like numerals indicating the same parts throughout the several views, and wherein,
\ Fig. 1 represents a view of the device showing the same partially in side elevation, and partially in longitudinal vertical section,
Fig. 2 a plan view, and,
Fig. 3, a perspective of the combined spring forceps and coil attaching member detached from the other parts.
In the drawing, the device is shown as comprising a supporting arm 1, preferably made from suitable metal tubing, split at to top. Ajweight 6 secured in the bottom of receptacle 5 serves to maintainthe receptacle in upright position whenever the longitudinal axis of arm 1 is inclined.
Secured about the main portion of member 1, and extending beyond the opposite end thereof, is a combined forceps and coil member 7, having spring jaws 8 and 9, whereby the device may readily be attached to the arm of a chair, a table or any other convenient object. Coils 10 and 11 with which member 7 is provided are made of suitable diameter to receive member 1, and still allow the latter to freely rotate therein about its longitudinal axis by reason of the leverage exerted thereon by ash receptacle 5 and weight 6'when the device is supported in a transverse inclined position. Washer 12 and a shoulder 13 formed on the end of member I serve to prevent removal of member 7, while the inner ends of forked arms 2, 3, prevent undesirable forward movement of member '7 on member 1. Sidelcoils 14 and 15 furnish the desired spring action for member 7. Convenient means for grasping the device and opening the spring aws without the device turning in the hand when attaching it to an object are provided in the form of an upper loop 16 for the thumb and a lower lateral extending portion 17 for the first and second fingers. It is to be noted that the several parts of member 7 are formed from a continuous piece of spring wire, thus materially reducing the number of parts necessary. This wire is preferably nickel-plated in order to give it an attractive appearance and is of suitable gauge for proper grip and stability. Jaws 8 and 9 are to be covered with suitable material 18, such as felt or rubber tubing to prevent the marring of furniture to which the device may be attached.
' It will thus be seen that the construction described provides a device which may be quickly attached to any convenient object, the ash receptacle 5 belng free to swing in two planes perpendicular to each other and hence always remaining in an upright position unaffected by the position of the other parts of thedevice or the manner in which the device i attached to the supporting object. In order to-ofi'set the possible tendencv to rotate about the forceps grips due 'to the weight of the other parts, the over all length of the device should be made as short as possible.
Although the preferred form of 'the invention has been illustrated and described,
it is understood that the same is not to be confined to the means shown except as limited by the appended claims.
What is claimed is: 1. A device of the character describec comprising in combination, a supporting arm having a forked end; an ash receptacle, pivotally mounted within the forked end of said arm; and spring attaching means providing a socket to pivotally receive said arm.
2. A device of the character described,
comprising in combination, a-metal wire bent to provide spring jaws and coiled to provide a socket a supporting arm having an I, outer forked end and mounted in said socket so as to be free to rotate about its longitudinal axis; a rod bridging the forked end of said arm; and an ash receptacle, pivweighted ash receptacle pivotally mounted within the forked end of said arm.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
FREDERIC E. AYER.
