UNITED STATES LAURITZ w. ANDER-SEN, or wATnnBURY, CONNECTICUT.
CANDLE-SHADE HOLDER.
Application fue@ August 3, 1922. serial No. 579,363,
To n.7?, lwhom, t may concern:
Be it known that I, LAUnrrZ W. ANDER- sinr, a citizen of the United States, resid ing at `lWaterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Candle-Shade Holders, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention is a novel construction of shade holder, and has for its object to provide a shade holder which shall be cheap and simple to manufacture and which willsecurely hold the shade when in use and will prevent wabbling, now so prevalent in the present type of candle shade holder.
Another object is to provide a simple form of shade holder which will have abundant strength to support a heavy shade. Another object of the invention is to provide a form of candle shade holder in which there will be no waste material in the fabrication of the same. objects in view the invention consists in the novel features of construction and in the manner of combining or arranging the same all of which will be fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the appended claims,
In the drawings forming a part of this specification l is a view showing one embodiment and use of my invention; Fig. 2 is a detail view of the clamp constituting a part of the shade holder; and Fig. S is a detail perspective view of one of the wings of said clamp; Fig. 4 is a detail view showing my improved form of clamp connected to the frame of a shield shade; Fig. 5 is a top pla-n view of the clamp and Fig. 6 is a plan view of the blank from Vwhich the wing of the clamp is formed.
Referring to the drawings A indicates the conventional form of candle and B the shadel which in the present instance is shown connected to a circular frame C which in turn is attached to a flanged ring D through the stem of the integral tongues D punched from the flanged ring and turned over the inner ring of the circular frame. The fianged ring which carries the shade has two supporting rods or wires E connected thereto, these rods or wires being in turn connected to the clamp as hereinafter explained.
' The clamp comprises two lsimilar wings F ,cmplising the curved jaw F and the rear- With these various which serve as supports for the shade or shield and this wire is bent centrally vas shown at E and is then carried in arallel directions as shown at E2 to provide the proper point of attachment for the wings and it will be noted that at the juncture of the curved jaw F and the handle portion F2 there are punched out from the opposite edges of the jaw the tongues F3 which are coiled around the parallel portions E2 of the wire and provide the proper connection between the jaws and the wire. The wire is then bent at right angles as indicated at E8 and then carried up and attached to the flanged ring as shown in Fig. l or connected to the shield frame G as indicated in Fig. 4. The ends of the handle portions F2 are curved toward each other as indicated at F* and in such inturned ends are fixed the opposite ends H of the centrally disposed coil spring H which it will be noted occupies a position between the wings and also in alignment with the space between the parallel portions of the wire to which the wings are attached. By this method of assembly each wing is independent of the other to a certain extent. There is also a limited amount of movement between pivots of the wings and the axis of the coil spring during the opening and closing operations. By having the wings pivoted in the manner herein shown and applying the pressure in the manner se-t forth and at the same time providing two separate wires for supporting the shade or shield I am able to provide a clamp which will firmly hold upon the object to which it is affixed and a strong and steady support will be provided for any and all types of shades.
By making the wings from plain flat stock and rolling back the pivotal connections I avoid all waste of material and thereby materially reduce the cost of the article.
It will thus be seen that I provide an eX- ceedingly simple and highly elficient construction of holder particularly adapt-ed for holding a .candle shade, but it will be understood that it can also be used for other pu`` poses.
Having` described my invention, what l claim is: l. ln a device of the lind described, a pair of clamping jaws, parallel Vertical wire members to which said jaws. are pivotally,
connected, a spring arranged between said gawsand contacting at the rear ends with the rear ends osaid jaws, said wire meining said wireanembers, the rear ends of said iaws Ibeing)turned inwardly,toward each other, a 'coiled spring,` arrangedbetween said Jaws and having the ends extending rearvsaid jaws.
wardly and in contact .with the intui ne 1l ends or' said jaws, said wire members extending horizontally rearwardly and then vertically, anda shade frame att-ached to the ends of said vertically extending' wire members.
3. In a dehvicewotl the kind describedl`v a pair of clamping jaws, a wire having a cen` tral horizontal portion, parallel 4downwardly` egtending portions, horizontally fox.- tending portions and verticall)Y extending; endA portionsdsaid jaws being pivotallyconnectevd to said parallel downwardly extending portions 'of said wire, a shadel frame connected to the ends ,of I said vertically extendingend portions of the wire, and a spring' interposed between the gaws and contaoting at its ends with the rear ends o't' In testimony whereof', I hereunto aiix' my slgna-ture.
