' CANDLE HOLDER Filed Jan. 27, 1951 Patented Aug. 4, 1931 j UNETED STATES PATENTOFFECE WILBER L. ORME, OF CAMBR-TDGE, OHIO CANDLE HOLDER Application filed January 27,1931. Serial No. 511,582,
This invention relates to candle holders, and pertains more specifically to candle holders made of glass,
facture, by making the stem and base separate from the sconce, or bobeche, and at the same time to provide for rigid attachment of the sconce to the holder proper so as to prevent the sconce from becoming n disengaged and broken in moving the candle holder from one position to another.
A further object of the invention is to provide means for latching the sconce by a dual wedging action thereof so as to hold the sconce against movement axially, as Well as laterally, of the holder proper.
A still further object of the invention is to provide means for enabling the sconce to be easily and quickly applied to and removed from the for the purpose of either packing for shipment, or to facilitate cleaning of the parts.
The invention has further and other objects which will be later set forth and manifested in the course of the following description.
In the drawings:
Fig. l is a side elevation of the invention, the glass prisms being shown in dotted lines;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on line 33. of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a section on line 4-4 of Fig.
3; and
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary enlarged top plan view similar to Fig. 2 showing the parts at the inception of assembly.
In proceeding in accordance with the present invention a of any desired type is employed, the stem having a tapered socket 3 to receive a candle.
A preferably circular seat 4 encircles the.
In operation, the sconce-is initially applied as shown in Fig. 5 wherein the spaces whereupon the sconce is moved into engagementwith the seat 4 'as shown in Fig. 3 and the sconce then rotated clock-wise as shown by the arrow in Fig. 5. This causes the lugs?- to ride upwardly against thetapered upper faces 8 -of the projections thereby forcing the sconce downwardly into firm engagement -with the seat 4. At the same time the under faces of the lugs will also ride against the inclined peripheral faces 8 of the projections so that the sconce will be held against lateral. movement relative to that the sconce is wedgedly held in position not only axially of the stem but also laterally thereof, effecting a dual wedging engagement of the sconce with the stem.
From the foregoing it will be seen that the parts can also be readily disengaged by counterclockwise movement of the sconce as toenable the parts to be more readily cleaned and also packed for shipment.
extending into the open center thereof, said projections having tapered upper faces to engage with the under faces of the lugs so as to force the sconce against the seat and having their peripheral faces tapered so as to Wedge against the under faces of the lugs upon rotation of the sconce, the projections being spaced attheir'ends-to receive the lugs through such spaces. I
2. A candle holder composed of a member having a candle receiving socket, an outwardly extending sconce seat carried by the member in encircling relation to the'socket, said socket having a tubular extension projecting above the seat, a sconce having an open center to receive the-extension, one of said two last named elements having a series of radial lugs and the other having compleinentary latching projections formed to have dual wedging engagement with the lugs whereby upon relative rotation of the eX- tension and sconce the latter will be forced against the seat and also wedged against lateral movement.
3. A candle holder'composed ofa member having a candle-receiving socket, a sconce seat below the upper end of the socket, a sconce open at its center to receive the upper end of the member, and complementary means carried bythe sconce and member whereby upon relative rotation of the sconce and member, the conce will be forced against the seat, and also wedged against lateral movement.
4. A candle holder composed of a member having a candle-receiving socket, a sconce seat below the upper end of the socket, a sconce open at its center to reccive the upper end of the member, lugs carried by the member and located =above the seat, and means carried by the sconce to engage the lugs whereby to force the sconce against the seat upon rotation thereof and to wedge the sconce against lateral movement.
5. A candle holder composed of a member having a candle-receiving socket, a sconce seat below the upper end of the socket, a sconce open at its center to receive the upper end of the member, a series of spaced curved projections carried by the sconce and extending into the open center thereof and having their upper faces circuniferentially inclined, and a series of radial lugs carried by the member and engageable with the inclined upper faces of the projections to wedge the sconce' against said seat.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
