WILLIAM WESTLAKE, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN LANTERNS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 142, 134, dated August 26, 1873; application filed July 28, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM WESTLAKE, of the city of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Lanterns, of which the following is a full description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation; Fig. 2, a vertical section at x 00, Fig. 1; Fig. 3, an elevation of the globe-holder.
My invention relates to that class of lanterns known as loose-globe lanterns, in which, the globes being of different sizes, it is necessary to have an adjustable holder to keep the globe from rattling.
Various devices have been used for this purpose, among which is a band on the inside of the dome having inclines working under and against a rod passing through the dome. This globe-holder is wholly detached from the lantern, and will drop out whenever the glass is removed. The object of my invention is to provide a globe-holder to obviate this difliculty.
In the drawings, A represents the globe of a so-called open-top lantern. ais an inclined slot placed in the vertical part d of the dome.
There are two slots on opposite sides of d. O
is the globe-holder, upon opposite sides of which are permanently secured two pins, b 1), adapted to enter and extend through the slots to. The circumference of this holder is such as to permit the upper end of the globe B to enter it readily. In manufacturing, after the dome has been made the holder 0 can be inserted in place, the pins 1) I) passed through holes in the holder from the inside and through the slots a, the pins being suitably secured by solder. When so constructed the globe-holder is readily operated by one or both pins 1) b,
I which project through the outside of the dome,
