JOHN J. BECKER, or NEW roux, N. Y.
CANDLESTICK OR OTHER STANDARD.
Application filed February 21, 1927. Serial No. 170,014.'
This invention relates to candlesticks or other light supporting standards,
- the shade of, color of one section being smeared on anadjacent section of another color.
Another object resides in the provision of a candlestick or other light supporting standard composed of sections of various shapes and sizes supported in superimposed relation on a single fastening rod or the like in such a manner as to obviate the necessity of employing various fastening devices for securing each of the sections in position. 1 l
A still further object is to provide a candlestick or other light supporting standard composed of sections of various shapes,
sizes and color and which are constructed and assembled to provide for simplicity and inexpensiveness of manufacture and also to provide for ready and quick assembling together to form a substantial candlestick or standard.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the claim hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction, within the scope of the claim, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawin the figure is a view partly in elevation and partly in section illustrating one embodiment of my invention.
Referring now more particularly to the accompanying drawing a base is indicated at 3 and which may be of any shape or design structurally or artificially, but which as shown is of circular formation with a beveled edge and formed preferably therewith is what I shall term the lowermost section 4 of the standard of a candlestick and upon which is sustained a plurality of superimposed and disconnected sections, constituting with the section 4 a candlestick or other light supporting standard.
Spherical sections of the candlestick or standard are indicated by reference characters 5 and 6 and a disk shaped section 7 is interposed between the spherical sections 5 and 6, with a similar disk shaped section 8 interposed between the lowermost spherical section 5 and the base or fixed section 4, there being a disk shaped section 8 of smaller diameter than the other disks interposed between the uppermost spherical sect-ion and a candle receiving cup section 9. h
All of the sections, except the'base section 4, are provided with a round central opening 10, the openin in the section 9 being in the bottom thereo A metal shaped cup 11 is preferably fitted in the cup section and fits the interior thereof snugly, a-ndfhas an opening in its bottom to register with the opening 10 in the bottom of the cup section. The bot-tom of the metallic lining or cup 11 may be formed with the sides thereof or it may be formed separately therefrom as will be understood.
The various sections are supported in'their superimposed relation upon the base section by means of a rod 12, preferably square in cross section, and at its upper end provided with a head 13, and havinga sharp ointed lower end 14 which is driven into the ase or fixed section 4 centrally of the latter whereby to clamp the sections between the lowermost fixed section 4 and the head 14 on the rod 12. In other Words, in assembling the sections, they are strung through their openings on to the squared rod 12, one after an other, the cup section, of course, being the first section strung on the rod. When the required number of sections have been strung on the rod, the pointed end 14 of the rod is placed centrally of the fixed or base section and driven into the latter a substantial dis tance to eflect the necessar seating of the rod to provide proper sti ness or rigidity for the standard. If desired a hole may be started centrally of the fixed section 4 or it may be formed entirely through the section and enter the base 3 for the reception of the pointed end of the rod, but in any event, it is my purpose to have a tight fitting connection between the fixed standard section 4 or the fixed standard 'section4 and the base with the rod 10.
The 0 enings in the various sections above the fixe section 4 being round and the rod being square in cross section there is a frictional connection between the sections and rod, such as to assist the clamping action between the head of therod and the fixed-section of the superimposed sections to prevent turning of the sections on the rod in the event of a slight loosening of the rod with relation to the fixed section or base.
It will be understood that as many spherical sections as Well as a corresponding number of disk sections may be employed according to the size of the sections or the height of the standard as may be desired. It will also be understood that the shapes of the various sections are immaterial and that they maybe varied in the matter of shape, configuration or size, they being interchangeable to suit various desires or requirements.
As has been stated, it is the purpose of the invention to em loy sections of relativel small pieces .0? Wood which may be readily turned out on an automatic machine to avoid hand labor. After the various sections have been turned on the machine they are preferably painted or dipped individ- 30 ually in proper preparations or solutionsfor words, sections of one color are directed through a dipping or other painting or coloring1 process in one operation. Sections of anot er color :are painted or colored by a dipping or other process and so on. After thepaintin or-coloring process and the sections have dried they are ready to be strung cup section 9is first strung on the rod when other sections are strung on the rod until a suflicient part :of the 'pointed :end of the rod isexposed and ready to be driven into the "base in the manner hereinbefore described.
What is claimed is:
In a device of the character described, a base, a plurality ofsh0rt,individual, unconnected sections of various shapes, sizes and color, each havin a circular perforation, the uppermost sectlon being cup shaped, and a rod uare in cross section passed throu h the per orations and secured tothebase,t e upper end of the rod having'a 'head'engaging the bottom of the cu section whereby to secure the sections ti tly together,"'th'e squared rod having snug fit in the circular perforations o'fthe sections.
upon the rod -12. As has been stated, the V In testimony whereof I haveh'ereunto set I my hand.
