Patented Sept. 13, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT, OFFICE ALFRED BURKE, on NEW YoRK, N. Y. e
LAMP SHADE FRAME Application filed July 16, 1931. Serial No. 551,093.
supporting hooks are often bent out of shape and not infrequently entirely broken oif. Frames of this character are awkward to wrap in paper, and cannot be stacked conveniently for shipment. Furthermore they take up considerable space on the dealers shelves.
My invention has for an object the elimination of the foregoing and other disadvantages of the present type of bed-lamp frame by the provision of a frame having movable supporting hooks which are adapted to be swung from their operative position into a position within the body of the frame, whereby to protect the hooks from damage in shipping or in handling, and to permit of stacking the frames one on the other.
The invention is not intended to be restricted to the particular constructions and arrangement of parts herein shown and described, as the same may be modified in various respects without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
On the drawing,.in which the same reference characters refer to the same parts throughout, and in which preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated 40 Figure 1 is a side elevatlon of a lamp shade embodying my invention Fig. 2 is a view in perspective illustrating the frame with the supporting hooks in their 5 open or operative position; i
Fig. 8 is a fragmentary rear view of another form of my invention showing the supporting hook in operative position in full lines, the inoperative position being indicated Fig. 1, is a transverse sectional View taken on the line H of Fig. 3.
My invention, in the forms or e1nbodiments shown in the drawing and briefly described, comprises a lamp shade frame, of the bed lamp'type, indicated generally as at 10, and the rotatably mounted supportinghooks 12. The frame 10 is preferably constructed of a pair of superposed wire members 13 and 14 which are bent to the desired shape of the completed shade. These members are held in their'ispaced relationby means ofvertioal brace wires 15 and a pair ofangularly bent corner supports 16. The lamp socket supportingmember 18 may be secured to the up per wire member 1 1 in any desired manner.
Ishall now [refer tothe supporting hooks and the means for attaching them to the lamp shade frame. In the embodiment of the invention illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, .the
' shown generally as at 20, for rotatably sup-j,
porting the transversely extendingwireQl. I These journals 20 are preferably fashioned by forming the rear angled edge of the corner supports 16'with a pair ofsubstantially par allelcuts or slits 22, which it will be noted, providesthat portion of the'corner support with three parallel metallic strips. The two outer strips 23 are bent in an outward direc tion, whereas the center strip 24 is bent inwardly to provide a substantially circular bearing for the adjacent end of the transversely extending rotatable rod 21.
The hook members 12 are soldered or other- 8 wise fixed to the wire21 so as to oscillate therewith.- Thevertical portion 25 of each each hook 12 'is adapted to bear againstthe inner side of the cross member 26, which.
frame suppo'rting position, shown in full linesin Fig. 1, to. their inner and out of the position, shown in dotted lines in that.v
V figure. In packing the frames for shipment 7 also provide an efl'ective means for limiting,
the supporting hooks are swung into their inner position, in which position the hooks are protected by the frame, and the frames themselves may be stacked one on the other so as to provide a compact arrangement. In use, the hooks are swung into their outer position for engaging the headboard of a bedstead.
In the embodiment of my invention illustrated in Figures 3 and 4, I have dispensed with the wire for supporting both hooks, employing instead an independent pivotal sup port for each hook. In this connection I pro vide a pair of spaced bearing portions 30 in each corner support 16 through which are mounted to oscillate the straight portions 31 of the hook members 12. For the purpose of preventing vertical displacementof the hook members 12, and at the same time permitting their free oscillating movement, I have formed thestraight portion 31 with angular offsets or bends .32 and 33 at the upper and lower ends thereof, and adjacent the upper and lower bearings 30. These ofisets 32 and 33 not only provide means for preventing displacement of .the hook members but they the outward movement of the hook member 12., as will be clearly seen by referring to" Figure 4 of the accompanying drawing.
7 It will be seen that in'each of'theembodiments of my invention the hook members 12 may be swung easly'either into their shade supporting position, or turned inwardly to their outof the' way position, whereby the frames may be readily handled, stored in' the minimum amount of space, and shipped without attendant danger of twisting or breaking the supporting hooks.
The covering of the shade may be of any suitable material, and it may either be per path of said hooks for limiting the outward movement thereof.
