Description
Patented June 3, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ALBERT sABA'rR, or CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, AssIGNoR 'ro sCENR-IN-ACTION CORPORA- rrIoN, or CHIcAGo,ILLINoIs, A CORPORATION or ILLINOIS dTRANS?.ARENG'Y Application filed October 18, 1928. Serial No. 313,293.
'of ,smoldering-lire, and smoke arising therefrom, in combination with an appropriately disposed smoke generator arranged to discharge its visible fumes in complementary visible harmony with the simulatedsmoke and apparently continuous therewith.
An illustrative embodiment ofthis invention is shown by the accompanying drawingsin which: ,1.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a complete transparency and incense burner.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged vertical axial section through the device of Fig. 1, on the line 2-2.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the incense burner plate which is shown in section in the upper part of Fig. 2.
In the construction shown in the drawings, the device 1 comprises a base 2, a cylindrical I housing wall part 3, a top or roofing part 4,
a source of light 5, a transparency rotor 6,
a transparency screen 7 interposed between said wall 3 and said rotor 6 and a horizontal burner plate 8.
The base 2 is decoratively formed as indicated in Fig. l and is provided with supporting legs or feet 9 mutually spaced apart with air spaces 10 interposed to admit air as hereinafter'eXpla-ined. Said base 2 is substantially dome shaped and is provided with a plurality of perforations 11 adapted to serve as air passageways surrounding the central apex where the lamp base or socket 12 is mounted. Electric current is supplied to the lamp 5 through a two conductor cord 13, one conductor 14 of 'which leads directly .to the socket 12. The other conductor 15 leads to the switch 16 from which a conductor 17 leads to the other side of socket 12. A handlej18 is provided on said switch for turning the current on and off.
The wall member 1 comprises a cylinder of glass, the outer faceof which is artistically decorated in transparency fashion by any appropriate means as, for instance, an outer layer of paper 19 adhesively applied and having the desired design already printed 6 thereon. In this instance, the design is reproduced in horizontal alinement on two or more parts of the decorative sheet in Order that the pictorial effect may be visible Jfrom various directions as will be apparent from Figure 1.
The 'rotor 2O is formed cylindrically and is disposed concentrically about the lamp 5 as vshown in Fig. 2. It is provided with a form retaining hoop 21 adjacent to its lower edge and a cylindrically rimmed fan 22 is secured to and disposed across its upper end where it serves by action of the ascending currents of lamp heated air to drive the rotor clockwise as viewed from the top. Rotation 7 is accommodated by provision of a downwardly facing axial bearing cup 23 on said fan which is thus supported pivotally on the upright member 24 secured at its lower end to the base 2 adjacent to the lamp socket 12. 8
The rotor wall 20 is made of substantially transparent material as, for instance, Celluloid or mica and is signicantly marked or lined with opapue or nearly opaque material as at 25 to help express the desired animated motion feature. e The lines 25 may be variously formed or .inclined on different parts of the rotor in accordance with the eli'ect desired on corresponding parts of the pictured outer wall part 19. f Theintermediate screen 26 is also composed of substantially transparent material held in shape by hoop members 27 and 28 and is variously lined or decorated as at 29 to correspond with the adjacently disposed pictured C parts on the front member '19. In this instance the greater part of screen 26 is covered with an opaque ornearly opaque coating and the lines 29 represent transparent light transmitting parts to correspon with f.
permanently decorated face o and enhance the smoke effect, appearing on the the part 19.
The burner plate 8 comprises ta substantially iat bottom part 30 surrounded by a shallow upstanding rim 31 bordered by an out-standing ange 32 adapted to rest upon the top edge of the Wall part 3. The central part is depressed at 83 to provide a receptacle for the combustible incense material Where t-he actual smoke is generated. Surrounding the part 33 are holes 31 to accommodate the upward movement of lamp heated air which escapes through the holes 35 in the roof part 4, carrying with it. columns of smoke 36 from the tire part 33. IVhen the device is in use the act-ual smoke 36 rises in alinement with the simulated smoke 3T on the face of member 19 yvhich due to the animated motion ei'ect produced by the rotor 6 and screen 7 appears to be actually rising from the lap of the pictured Buddha 38. I regard the device as a lamp specialty, and in view of the e'ect produced I call it a Buddha lamp.
Although but one specic embodiment of this invention is herein shown and described, itis to be understood that numerous details of the construction shown may be altered or omitted Without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined by the following claims.
I claim:
1. A device of the character described comprising a pictorially decorated transparency part of cylindrical shape adapted and arranged to pictorially simulate ascending smo "e, and a burner partmounted in the upper portion of said transparency part and being adapted and arranged to discharge real smoke substantially in alinement with the simulated smoke, said parts having draftpassagevvays formed therein.
Q. A device of the character described comprising a base, a source of light and heat mounted thereon, animated motion transparency means surrounding said source and mounted on said base. and a burner and a top inoiuited over said source and carried by said 1neans,said base, burner and top having draftand smoke passages, and said means being decoratively designed to represent pictorially the discharge of smoke from a pictured source and in complementary relation to the real smoke.
Signed at Chicago this 6th day of June.
ALBERT SABATH.
