E. A. GILLINDER GANTEEN GLASS GLOBE AND HOLDER FOR GASOLINE PUMPS Filed May 8, 1926 ATTORNE Patented Oc.t. 26, 1926.
UNITED STATES PATENT- OF EDGAR A. GILLINDER, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO GILLINDER & SONS INC., OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA,
VAN IA.
A CORPORATION OF PENNSYL- Application filed May 8, 1926. Serial No. 107,701. I
My invention relates to an new and useful improvement in canteen globes for gasoline service stations and the like, and it relates more particularly to a. novelconstruction in such canteen globes, whereby a more durable and less fragile globe is produced.
In constructing relatively large glass globes with relatively narrow neck portions, and particularly in constructing relatively large flat glass globes, having a pair of relatively large flat opposed upright panels, such as canteen shaped glass lobes for gasoline service stations, great di cult-y has been experienced and disadvanta e encountered in the weakness of the usual neck or stem of the globe, secured in the usual socket having a series of set screws engaging a lower outwardly projecting flange on the neck of the globe, and particularly, theweakness of such neck construction to resist the wind pressure upon the relatively large vertical faces or panels of such glass globe.
Thus, in the canteen glass globes for gasoline service stations, as constructed heretofore, with the usual outwardly extending bead or flange at the lower end of the neck thereof, adapted'to be engaged by a series of set screws throughout the periphery thereof in a usual socket, great loss has been incurred bv the breakage of the lobes in the neck portions thereof, due to t e relatively great pressure of said set screws concentrated at a point of minute area, due also to the expansion of the glass when heated and the rigid contact of such set screws, and
due to the fact that the entire wind pressure upon the large andfiat panels of such globes is borne by one or at the most two points 'in the pen hery of the neck of theglobe, that is, at t e point or points of confact of the set screws. Particularly great has been the loss due to the breakage of these globes in the mounting thereof, asthe least amount of excess pressure of one of the screws cracked the neck portion of the globe.
To overcome these disadvantages incanteen glass globes for gasoline service stations and to eliminate. the great loss due to the breakage of the same, various means have been devised. Thus, an attempt has been made to build canteen globes of this character of part metal and part glass, that is, to provide a cylindrical metal drum positioned upright and having a suitable memetallic protecting collar,
tal lic neck portion, inwhich metallic cylindrical drum a pair of opposed relatively large circular glass discs orpa nels were inserted and secured by suitable means. This combination of metal and glass construction has been found to have inherent disadvantages in cutting down the net total illuminatlon, or light emanating from such globe due to the opaque metallic surface forming a considerable portion of the globe. For this reason, these combined metal and glass globe structures have been discarded and the allglass canteen globes were resorted to in their stead, even at the considerable expense due to the breakage of these all-glass canteen globes, for the reasons hereinabove mentioned.
By my novel construction, I. am enabled to provide all-glass globes for gasoline service stations, which will possess all theadvantages of glass structures, that is, will give a maximum of illumination from a given source of'light within the globe, and will also be free of the objectionable feature 'of the glass globes of this character constructed heretofore, that is, will not be liable to breakage in the neck thereof, due to the pressure of the set screws bearing against the neck,
and will have the durability of the combined metal .and glass globes of this character.
With the above ends in View, my inven tion consists of an all-glass canteen globe .for gasoline service stations, being of a generally circular form, having two opposed substantially parallel, and relatively large vertical panels formed integrally with the body of the globe and having a lower pendant annu lar neck portion, having an outwardly projecting screw thread thereon formed integrally therewith.
y invention further consists of the conibination of a canteen glass globe of this character with a novel threaded annular preferably of sheet metal. adapted to be threaded onto the outside of the annular neck of said canteen globe, so as to provide a glass neck surrounded by and encasedwithin a correspondv 'ing, relatively light and resilient, metallic protecting collar. My invention further consists of a suitable lower pendant skirt or rim upon said metallic protecting collar, adapted to be received in a suitable socket and to be secured therein rigidly by a series though it 15 to be understood that the various instrumentalities of which my invention con:
sists can be variously arranged-and organized and that my invention is not limited; to the. precise arrangement and organization of these instrumenta-lities as herein shown and described. I
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a novel canteen glass globe for gasoline service stations, and the novel metallic collar and mounting thereof, embodying my invention.
Figure 2 represents a section on line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 represents a perspective view of the metallic protecting collar.
Figure 4 represents a vertical section of the lower portion of the globe, on an en-' larged scale, showing the detailed construction.
Figure!) represents a section on line 5-5 of Figure 4. p
in which like Referring to the drawings,
, reference characters indicate like parts, 1
having formed integra parallel and opposed, relatively-large cirannular and substanortion of the globe 2 therewith the two designates the central tially cylindrical drum cular and slightly convexed vertical panels 3 and 4, and having. also formed integral therewith the lower pendant annular neck portion 5, having suitable outwardly .p r0- jecting thread 6, formed integral therewith. The. glass globe 2 may be of any suitable glass, preferably of translucent milk glass, and the panels 3 and 4 being adapted to have embossed, etched, painted or otherwise inscribed thereon, any inscriptions, indlcia or the like. a
The metallic annular protecting collar 7, preferably formed of a slightl resilient sheet metal, comprising the uprig t annular threaded portion 8 of a pitch and diameter adapted to thread easily upon the outside of the lower 5 of the globe 2, and the outwardly and lat erally projecting annular flange formed mtegral therewith, and the outwardly pro ecting vertical skirt or rim 10, also formed integral with the flange 9.
thread 6 of the pendant neck.
' The protecting collar 7, is threaded onto the threaded neck portion until the upper edge of said threaded member 8 of the pro tecting' collar 7 substantially abuts the bead 11 on the neck 5 of the globe 2, immediately above the threads 6. 1
The globe is then positioned in the upper holder 12 of the upper stem 13 of the usual gasoline pump and the set screws 14 are then screwed inwardly until they pass over the upper surface of the lateral flange 9 and bear against the lower portion of the an nnlar threaded member 8. I Canteen globes thussupported in the holder or socket 12 on the top of the gasoline' pump, are not only secure against breakage due to wind pressure upon the large panels 3 and 4 thereof, but are also secure against any breakage due to undue tightening of the set screws 14, or due to any expansion of the glass neck 5 of the globe 2, since any strain of this nature is taken up entirely by the metal protecting collar 7.
It will now be apparent that I have devised a new and useful construction in can-. teen-glass globe for gasoline pumps, WhlCh,
embodies the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the invention and the above description, and while I have, in the present instance, shown and described a preferred embodiment thereof, which will give in practice satisfactory and reliable results, itis to be understood that such embodiment is susceptible of modification and variation in various particulars without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim asv new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is In a device of the character stated, a globe holder having a' plurality of substantially radially disposed set screws extending inwardly, a threaded metallic protecting collar disposed within said holder, having a lower laterally projecting flange, a glass globe includin a ZIOVVGI threaded glass neck portion threa edly seated in said metallic protecting collar, said lower lateral flange having a basal rim resting on the globe holder, and said radial set'screws overhanging and operatively engaging said lateral flange firmly to clamp said protecting collar in said" globe holder with the basal rim bearing-against said globe holder.
