EDWARD F. MORSE, OF PLANTSVILLE, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN LAMP-POSTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 182, [27, dated September 12, 1876 application filed October 26, 1875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD F. MORSE, of Plantsville, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Lamp-Posts; and I do hereby declare the following, when 'taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description oi the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent a sectional side view.
This invention relates to an improvement in the construction of posts used to support street-lamps, commonly called lamp-posts, the object of the invention being to produce a cheap but durable post; and it consists in a base or plug, combined with a sheet-metal tube set over the said plug and supported thereby, and so as to receive and support the lamp at the top, as more fully hereinafter described.
A is the post proper, which is formed from sheet metal, worked into cylindrical or other gether in any known manner. B is a plug or This plug is made hollow, to receive a gaspipe. The sheet-metal portion and the plug B constitute the complete article, it only be- 1 ing necessary that the upper end of the post shall be constructed to receive the lamp or gas-burner. l
By this construction a very much lighter post is produced than the usual molded cast post, and one very much stronger than the wood post, but at little, if any, more cost than such wood post.
I do not broadly claim a hollow or tubular described lamp-post, consisting of the shoul dered hollow plug B andthe sheet-metal tube A, substantially as set forth.
