6 Claims. '(o1..240 13s) This invention relates to a lamp shade for electric lamps and a shade support therefor. Heretofore lamp shades of this general character have included a shade support which formed a permanent part of the shade and which was not detachable. Such shade supports made it impossible to arrange a plurality of such shades in nested relation for shipping purposes thereby greatly increasing the size of the package as well as the cost of the package and the shipping costs.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a lamp shade having a shade support which is detachable so as to permit a number of such shades to be arranged in nested relation for the purpose of saving space and expense in shipping.
Another object of the invention is to provide a lamp shade for electric lamps and a shade sup port therefor which can be produced at a minimum cost and which at the same time will efiect a great saving in space and shipping cost.
A further object of the invention is to provide a lamp shade having a shade support which may be readily detached without disassembling or otherwise afiecting the shade.
Further and more limited objects of the invention will appear as the description proceeds and by reference to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view of a lamp shade embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a View in elevation of the shade support detached from the shade; and Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring now to the drawing, my improved lamp shade consists essentially of a shade member l which is preferably conical in shape and which may be formed of parchment paper, metal I or other suitable material. The shade member I is also preferably formed from a single piece of material and is of the shape shown most clearly in Figs. 1 and 3. Disposed exteriorly of the shade member I and at the top thereof is a flanged cover plate 2 the peripheral edge of which is flared outwardly and has considerable surface contact with the shade. Disposed inwardly of 4 the shade member l is a reinforcing disk 3 which engages the inner side of the conical shade member as shown most clearly in Fig. 1. Extending through openings provided in the cover plate and reinforcing disk is a bolt A having an ornamental head 5. Secured over the bolt is a nut 6 which serves to clamp the shade member between the cover member 2 and the reinforcing disk 3. Also secured over the bolt 4 is a nut I which is preferably rectangular or hexagonal in shape and to which is secured a pair of loops 8 and 9 which are disposed atopposite sides oi the nut and which are preferably formed of wire; the ends of each loop being spot welded or soldered to opposite sides of the nut B, as shown at if). The wire loops 8 and 9 are so arranged and disposed as to resiliently grip or'clamp an electric. lamp bulb to secure the shade thereto. The nut 6 together with the wire loops 8 and 9 constitute the shade support which is detachable as a unit.
As the shade support is readily removed from the shade, it will be seen that a number of such shades may be arranged one within the other in nested relation so that a large number of shades may be shipped in a single container 15 thereby effecting a great saving in space which in turn cifects a saving in the size and cost of the package required as well as in shipping costs.
It will now be clear that I have provided a lamp shade and support therefor which will accomplish the objects of the invention as hereinbefore stated. It will of course be understood that various changes may be made in the details of construction without departing from the spirit 25 of my invention and that the embodiment of the invention herein disclosed is to be considered merely as illustrative and not in a limiting sense as the invention is limited only in accordance with the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
l. A lamp shade comprising a shade member, a cover plate disposed exteriorly of said shade member, a reinforcing member disposed interiorly of said shade member, a bolt extending through said members, a nut secured over said bolt and holding said members in place, a lock nut thread edly engaging said bolt and having a pair of wire loops thereon disposed for engagement with a lamp bulb for supporting said shade.
2. A lamp shade comprising a shade member, a cover plate disposed exteriorly of said shade 7 member, a reinforcing member disposed interiorly V of said shade member, a bolt extending through said members, a nut secured over said bolt and holding said members in place, a lock nut threadedly engaging said bolt and having a pair of wire loops thereon disposed for engagement with a lamp bulb for supporting said shade, said last mentioned nut and loop beingdetachable as a unit so as to permit a plurality of said shades to be arranged in nested relation.
3. A lamp shade for'electric lamps comprising a conical shade member, a cover member dismember, a bolt and nut securing said cover member and reinforcing member in place, and a shade support detachably secured to said bolt, said 15 shade support consisting of a lock nut secured over said bolt having a pair of wire loops secured thereto and disposed so as to engage and resiliently clamp an electric light bulb.
5. A lamp shade for electric lamps comprising a conical shade member, a cover member disposed exteriorly of said shade member, a reinforcing member disposed interiorly of said shade member, a bolt and nut securing said cover member and reinforcing member in place, and a shade support detachably secured to said bolt, said shade support consisting of a lock nut, a pair of wire loops disposed at opposite sides of said lock nut respectively, the ends of each of said loops being soldered to said lock nut, said loops being shaped to resiliently clamp an electric lamp bulb.
6. A lamp shade comprising a conical shade member, a cover plate disposed exteriorly of said shade member, a reinforcing member disposed interiorly of said shade member, a bolt extending through said members, a nut secured over said bolt and holding said members in place, a second nut threadedly engaging said bolt, a shade support carried by said second nut, said bolt being of such length and so disposed and arranged that a plurality of shades may be arranged in nested relation when the second nut is removed.
