MyV invention i relates to `flag holders and particularly to the class in which either orboth staii' and holder are of tubularnature.v
- The object of my invention is to provide a combined sta and holder for automobiles, signailing and the like, which is adaptable to protect a flag from the weather when not in use. i
A second object is to provide a telescopic '59 holder, within which the flag may be enclosed when not in use. u v
A further object is to" provide a holder of convenient size which may be attached to a suitable support, and readily detached, and stored in relatively small space, or readily transported without exposure of the flag to the weather or to dust.
My invention consists in the novel character of holder I employ andthe means I em- 20 ploy to protect the flag and to secure the holdr.
er to an automobile buffer.
With my invention, the ilagholder is adapted for attachment to the buiier of an automobile, or by the substitution of suitable fas- '3 25 tening means, may be secured to a wheel guard or may be used for manual signaling, the flag being withdrawn into an element of the holder whichl in turn may betelescoped, and when so telescoped, whether ornot the staii be exposed to the elements, the fia-g is prOteCS/Cl- In the accompanying specilications and claims and the drawing` forming a part thereof, I have described; and illustrated a pre- 35 ferred embodiment `of my invention, but do not confine myself to this particular form, as modifications may be introduced Within the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawing :Y Y
Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation showing the preferred embodiment of my invention in operative relation with the buffer bars of an automobile. V i V Fig. 2 isa ragmental elevation showing Ar4,5 the upper member of theholder and capand the relation of the flag and slot in such member.

the nutf23 functioning not only as a means for limiting the axial movement 'of the neck. in the gland, but alsoas a means for turning being such as shown, in which rivets 25 pass- Fig. 4 is a sectional plan of theholder on line4-4-4, Fig. f 1 f Referring to the drawing,the tubular element 1 is provided with a gland 11 secured toone end. v i
Inthis embodiment, I have shownan element l2 secured to the otheren`d,^and in which isA hinged at 13l fastening means which Iwill presentlydescribe. This end of the staff ele` i ment may beprovided with a base 12 for' use Y on thewheel guard ofan'automobil'e or for use as a standard, ora closure cap not shown but ofobvious character, may be used when the `device is used in connection with manual signalin'g. Slidable axiallywithinthe tubek and Vextendingthroughthe gland 11 isa second tubular element 14, Vhaving a-plug 15 `slidable onl the inner walls of the element V10fand rigid 1 with the element 14. The upperen'dof the i element l4fis threaded at 16 and ta ped to en- 'l0 gage this end is a second gland 1%, through which extends aneck 18 of the flag staff; 19-
which is provided with an enlarged'portion 20 i adapted toengage the Asurface 21 of the gland 17 andlimitin one direction the axial movement of the staff 19 relative to theelement 161:.`
vTheneck 18 is shouldered and the reduced portion threaded at 22 to engagethenut23,` the neckbeing rotatable inthe gland 171 and l A the whole staff 1-9to which the flag A maybe attached by any suitable means, one vmeans ing through the flag and staff, secure the flag. thereto.y The plug 15 is formed "axally'with asocket26 and the staff 19 is shouldered,the Y reduced neck 27 being journalled inthe socket and theshoulder bearing on the end of the 9o plug. Opposite the flag in one wall ofgthe f element 14 is a slot 28 through whichtheflag maybe drawn to expose it? and `when not required or use itma'y be wound about thestaff 19 by turning thenut 23. i
` To retain the tubular elements in operative position asin Figrl, any suitable meansmay be employed, one such Imeans A.including a plunger 2'8axially slidable in therplug 15 normal toits axis, oneend being pressed against ICJ vthe inner Wall of the element 10 by a springy .p 29 seatedV in the'plug. Y This plunger -is adapted Vto engage'with a perforation 30 in the y ,relative rotationiofvthe tubularmembers.
Both the/glandleand the nut 23 are provided with respective over hanging portions Yand 32 forming annularl ridges, the former overlapping the glandv 11 vwhenV the member 14'is Y telescoped and 4the latter ove'rlappingthe gland 17, .together protecting Vthe flag from the elements When the staff ,is telescoped,
My invention also 'includesfthe'fmeans forv ,securing the staff to the'buffer of an rautomobile`,which I Will noW describe. Hinged to Y o f V.the element 12at 13 is astubvtovwhich is y f Y f y. 7 secured". a tubular element 86, *the opposite f end being perforated to form a slidev bearing e ,l

3. A flag support havinga tubular ystaffY memberprovided with a slot ,in the Wall,`
thereof, and a spindle rotatable axially with-V p in the tubular stan' member and to which the flag may be attached to extend through theV slot, and in combination with saidr staf member a tubular supporting rmember Within Which the staff member may telescope; and
