My invention consists of a bar suspended by a chain or its equivalent with a sliding or movable Weight on one end to balance the different Weights of burners or shades on the other end, a rod attached to the frame, and passing up through rings attached to the chain or its equivalent, serving to steady the droplight or' burner. Rings are attached to the chain, through which the exible tubing passes, and by which the tubing is supported and held from above the drop-light or burner.
A represents the frame or bar, and B the sliding or movable Weight, by Which the' different Weights of burners and shades are balanced. C represents the chain or its equivalent, by which the light or burner is suspended, and D the rings or their equivalent, by which the flexible tubing is supported and held from above the light. E represents the dexible tubing. F represents the hook, by which the light is raised to any desired height by connection with the links of the chain or the rings connected with the chain.
