Claims.
This invention relates to a crucifix and a mounting therefor.
It is the principal purpose of this invention to provide the crucifix with a back that may serve as a raised base or altar to support the crucifix in upright position and to provide on the crucifix a novel means for attaching it to the back.
Other and more specific objects and advantages will appear as the description proceeds in connection with the accompanying drawing. It is to be understood however, that the drawing and description are illustrative only and are not to be taken as limiting the invention except in so far as it may be limited by the claims.
In the drawing- Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the device; Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2--2 of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the crucifix mounted on the base;
Fig. 4 is-a sectional view on the line 44 of Fig. 3;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4; and
Fig. 6 is a sectional view on the line 6-6 of Fig. 3.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, the crucifix comprises a hollow casing III which is made up of two members I l and I2. These members have upstanding peripheral flanges such as I3 and I4 which are adapted to telescope, with the flange I4 upon the shallow member I3 within the flange I3 of the deeper member II.
As best shown in Figure 2, a depression I5 is punched up in the flange I4 of the member I2 and a raised portion I6 is punched up in the flange I3 of the member II to form a means for holding the two members together at the lower end. At the upper end, both flanges I3 and I4 are apertured to provide a passage for a latch II which is secured by means of a headed pin I8 to the member I2 for limited vertical sliding movement in an elongated slot I9 in the member I2. Beneath the slot I9 there is also provided a key hole slot 20 for hanging the crucifix upon a wall by means of a suitable headed member 2I such as a nail.
The deep section II of the crucifix contains blocks 22 and 23 spot welded or otherwise secured to the flange thereof and serving as a limiting means to limit the telescoping of the member I2 in the member I I. The member I2 has at the opposite ends of the horizontal portion of the cross a pair of candle socket receiving slots 24 and beneath each slot there is a spring tongue 25. Candle sockets 26 have headed projections (Cl. 2'06- -19) I 21 which are adapted to extend into key hole slots 24 and when moved to the narrow portion of the slot, these projections are held in place by the spring tongue 25.
When the crucifix is to be packed in a box, the candle sockets 26 may, of course, be removed. Also when the crucifix is hung on the wall like in Figure 2, the candle sockets are removed.
Now, when it is desired to mount the crucifix upon a horizontal support as shown in Figure 3, the shallow member I2 is provided with means consisting of a pair of key hole slots 28 each of which is backed up by a spring tongue 29. Headed pins 30 are movably mounted in the lower end of the member II for engagement in the slots 28.
The hollow interior of the crucifix may, of course, be used for storage of such articles as are used in the rites of the Christian religion particularly those used by the clergy of the Roman Catholic Church in administering the last sacrament,
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A crucifix comprising a pair of casing members having peripheral flanges for telescoping one within theother to provide a hollow casing when assembled, said flanges having openings therein at one end of the crucifix which openings are aligned with'each other when the casing members are telescoped together in closed position and a latch carried by one of said members movable through said openings to secure the two members together.
2. A crucifix comprising front and back casing members having peripheral flanges for telescoping one within the other, said front casing member having spring retracted, headed projections in its flange at one end thereof and said back casing member having slots in the back thereof for receiving said projections, the slots having restricted portions preventing withdrawal of the heads of said projections, whereby to support the the having candle holders removably mounted on the back thereof.
4. Acrucifix comprising front and back casing members having peripheral flanges for telescoping one within the other, said front casing mem-. her having spring retracted, headed projections in its flange at one end thereof and said back casing member having slots in the back thereof for receiving said projections, the slots having restricted portions preventing withdrawal of the heads of said projections, whereby to support the front casing member in upright position on the back casing member, said back member having spring tongues beneath the slots therein for engaging the heads of said projections.
5. A crucifix comprising a pair of casing members having peripheral flanges for telescoping one withinthe other to provide a hollow casing when assembled, said flanges having openings therein at one end of the crucifix and a latch carried by "one of said members movable through said openings to secure the two members together, one of said flanges having a recess and the other flange having a projection at the ends opposite said openings for aligning and holding the members in position.
