Description

y 1937- M. E. WOO-D'WARD 2,079,955
' BEACON SUNRAY LIGHT Filed May 7, 1935 "fly. Z /Z 4 \z /d I Inventor Jifay Fez? 11250672042 r Attorney Patented May 11, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates broadly to the class of illumination and has as its object the provision of a simple, inexpensive and efllcient electric lamp especially adapted for use in public parks; and further to provide such a lamp which besides being useful will also be attractive and ornamental in appearance.
The invention together with its objects and advantages will be best understood from a study of the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the lamp.
Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially on the line 2--2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is an edge elevaticnal view of an annular frame forming part of the invention.
Referring to the drawing by reference numerals it will be seen that the lamp comprises a post 5 of any suitable shape, design and length rising from a suitable and preferably ornate base 6. The post 5 is bored or hollow to accommodate an electrical conductor leading to a suitable socket I mounted at the top of the post 5 to accommodate an electric light bulb 8.
The socket 1 is arranged within the confines of a vertically disposed continuous circular frame 9 provided with a vertical central series of circumferentially spaced minute apertures l0 through which the rays from the bulb 8 pass to provide substantially a halo of light about the globe.
The aforementioned globe in the present instance consists of the frame 9 and. concavo convex transparent disks ID the convex surfaces 35 of which are disposed outwardly. At the edges thereof the disks l0 are provided with inwardly directed circular flanges I l of a diameter to fit snugly within the frame 9 and through the medium of which and set screws I2 the disks ID are removably held in place.
It will be apparent that the light rays from the globe 8 will shine not only through the disks l0 but also in tiny pin points of light through the apertures I0 affording not only the desired illumination but also giving an attractive and enhancing appearance to the lamp.
As will be appreciated from the foregoing, my novel lamp while well adapted to serve the purpose ascribed to it is extremely simple and inexpensive in construction and entails the employment of but a minimum number of parts, and is at the same time strong and durable.
Having thus described the invention; what is claimed as new is:
The herein described improved lamp comprising essentially a post with a vertical bore therethrough, a circular frame or band superimposed on and corresponding in width with the diameter of the upper end of the post and arranged throughout in the same vertical plane as the upper end of the post and having a vertical central series of minute spaced apertures for the radial emanation of light rays, a lamp socket bearing directly on the lower portion of said circular band or frame and holding the same to the upper end of the post, an incandescent electric lamp bulb carried in said socket, diaphanous disks arranged at opposite sides of said circular band or frame and having inwardly directed flanges fitting snugly within the edge portions of the circular band or frame, and screws threaded in apertures of the circular band or frame and disposed in, indentures in the flanges of the diaphanous disks for positively though detachably securing the disks in the circular band or frame.
