R. s. STANDISH ADJUSTABLE LAMP SHADE Filed May 15, 1922 fia. 4
Patented Mar. 20, 1923.
RICHARD S. STANDISH, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
ADJUSTABLE LAMP SHADE.
Application filed May 15,
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it knownthat I, RICHARD S. STANDISH, a citizen of the United States, and resident of the city of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Adjustable Lamp Shades, of which the following is a specification, containing a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in adjustable lamp shades, and has for its object the construction of a shade, especially designed for electric lights, and which may be readily attached to the globes and applied for use without any other fastening device, except the globe and its socket.
In the drawings,
Fig. 1 is a bottom plan view of my shade opened out flat.
Fig. 2 is a fragmental sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an end view, showing the shade adjusted to throw the light downwardly.
Fig. 4 is a plan view of one of the adjusting wings which I employ.
Fig. 5 is a plan View of a washer, by means of which the adjusting wings are secured to the shade.
Fig. 6 is a plan view of a flanged disc which is also employed for securing the adjusting wings to the shade.
Referring to the drawings,-
7 indicates the shade which is provided with folding side wings 8 and 9. The completed shade is formed of a single sheet of material, such as card-board or other suitable material. and is provided with score lines 1 which permit of the adjustment of the side flaps or wings 8 and 9. Secured on the face of the shade opposite the score lines in are reinforcing strlps of fabric 11. The piece of material out of which the shade is formed is provided with an opening 12. This opening 12 is formed through the central. portion 13 of the shade which is not adjustable. Mounted in this opening is a short tube 14 provided with a flange 15, and a short flange 16. Mounted on the tube 14 and between the flange 15 and the shade are adjustable wings 17 and 18. These wings are free to rotate on the tube 14. Stamped from these wings are studs 19, by means of Serial No. 560,868.
which the said wings may be rotated or adjusted. In the assembling of my device, the wings 17 and 18 are first inserted over the tube 14:, before the flange 16 is formed thereon, then the tube is inserted through the opening formed in the portion 13 of the shade, then the washer 20 is inserted over the end of said tube, and finally the flange 16 is formed on the tube by bending the edge over.
In Fi 3 I have illustrated an end view of my s ade, showing it applied over the screw-threaded plug 21 of the lamp, and adjusted so as to throw the light downwardly. The side wings or flaps 8 and 9 are capable of independent adjustment, and either of said flaps may be held in horizontal position by turning either the wings 17 and 18 in either direction under said flaps transversely of the flap, and if it is desired, both of said wings may be adjusted transversely of the flaps and then the entire shade will be held in horizontal position.
It will be noted in this connection that each of said wings may be turned independently of each other, and in either direction, that is, either to the right or left.
My shade may be applied by unscrewing the bulb and inserting the same over the screw-threaded plug, as previously described, without the employment of any other fastening device, except the bulb and its socket.
Having fully described my invention, what claim is:
1. An adjustable lamp shade comprising a central portion provided with an opening. adjustable side wings integrally formed with said central portion. a tube provided with a flange mounted in the opening formed in the central portion, a pair of independently rotatable wings mounted on said tube between the flange formed thereon and the shade and positioned beneath the shade. a washer mounted on said tube above the shade, and a flange formed on the'end of said tube for holding in assembled position the rotatable wings, washer, and shade.
2. An adjustable lamp shade formed of a single piece of material, and provided with score lines so as to provide adjustable integral side portions, and a non-adjustable central portion having an opening formed therein, reinforcing strips secured to the shade opposite the score lines, a tube having a lower flange mounted in the opening of the central portion having integrally a pair of rotatable wings formed lugs mounted on said tube adjacent its lower flange and beneath the shade, :1 upper end of the tu Washer mounted on the be and above the shade,
and a turned over flange formed on the up- In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification.
