Application filed October 8, 1925. Serial No. 61,836.
The primary object of my invention is to adapt the translucent globes used for shading the lamps on posts, more especially at Fig. l, and i Figure 4 is a broken section on line M, Fig. 2.
The shade or globe 5, which may be best produced by molding it out of glass, usually frosted to render it translucent, has formed about its equator or waist portion a rectangular sect-ion 6, affording four fiat sides on each of two opposite of which to display the name of a street, which may be that along which cars travel, and to display on each of the other two opposite sides'the name of an intersecting street. For displaying the street-names, I prefer to paint them, in legibly large characters, on rectangular glass plates 7 to fit and occupy the four sides of the waist-section 6, the upper and lower edges of each side thereof being provided with retaining flanges 8, and being recessed at the corners, as shown at 9. By this pro-- vision, the globes may be used at street-intor-sections bearing diiferent names, or for changing them on any globe by enabling '5 the plates 7 having provided thereon, asindicated at 10 in Fig. 2, the appropriate street-names, to be slidingly inserted endsengers.
My improved device is particularly useful in avoiding the need on the part of passengers in carsto depend on the usually in distinct announcement by the conductors of the street being approached, which is peculiarly disturbing and annoying to strangers unfamiliar with the names of the crossstreets. With shades 5, of adequately large di nien'sions and bearing the street-names in adequately large size, supported as usual on lamp-posts (not shown) at diagonally opposite street-corners, which is an intended position for the more efiective use of my invention, the names are so conspicuous as $0 render them readily legible at a great distance to pedestrians as well as carpas- I realize that considerable variation is possible in the details of construction herein shown and described, and I do not intend to limit my invention thereto except as pointed out in the appended claims, in which itis my intention to claim all the novelty inherentin my invention as broadly as permissible by the state of the art.
I claim:
1. As a new article of manufacture, a translucent street-lamp shade of general globular shape, having its waist-portion formed thereabout with four rectangular sides, groove-equipped flanges bordering said sides, and name-plates insertable into the grooves of said flanges and removably confined in place thereby.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a
translucent street-lamp shade of general globular shape, having its waist-portion formed thereabout with four rectangular flattened sides, groove-equipped flanges recessed at their corners and bordering said sides, and name-plates insertable in and rem'ovable from the grooves of said flanges and confined in place thereby.
