F. J. MAJOR MULTIFILAMENT LAMP Filed Feb. l, 1937 Patented Dec. 13, 1938 UNITED STATES MULTIFILAIVIENT LAMP Forrest J. Major,
Ocean Park, Calif.
Application February 1, 1937, Serial No. 123,446
9 Claims.
This invention has for an object the provision of a multi-filament lamp, in which a selected one or more of the filaments may be energized at will Without removing the lamp from its socket, and wherein a fuse element protecting said filaments is arranged to be readily replaced when burned out, all, whereby to produce at a low cost a lamp having much longer life than the ordinary single filament lamp and in which the intensity of the light may be varied as desired depending upon the number of filaments energized.
'Ihis invention also relates to and embodies improvements in incandescent lamps of the type forming the subject matter of my applications lamp, led February 28, 1936, Serial Number 66,160, and Incandescent lamp, filed August 3, 1936, Serial Number 95,329.
Another object of this invention is to provide a simple and efficient selector means consisting of a few parts and adapted to be readily operated at will while the lamp is mounted in a socket, to connect one or more of the several filaments in the lamp circuit or to disconnect all of said filaments from the lamp circuit. n
A further object is to provide a lamp of the character described wherein the one or more of the several filaments may be energized through manipulation of a pull cord actuated selector means forming a part of the invention.
I have shown a preferred form of my invention in the accompanying drawing, subject to modification within the scope of the appended claims Without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Referring to the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a vertical sectional view of one form of -the lamp of this invention taken. on line I-I of Fig. 2, Fig. 2 is an enlarged cross section taken on the plane of 2-2 of Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a section taken on the plane of line 3--3 of Fig. 1, Fig.' 4 is a fragmentary section showing a portion of the pull cord means, Fig. 5 is a fragmentary section showing the pull cord selector means, Figs. 6, 7, 8v and 9 are diagrams'showing various positions of the selector means. i
One embodimentv of the lamp comprises a bulb I.having a neck 2 cemented to a conductor sleeve 3 provided with a screw threaded end 4. This bulb contains a plurality of filaments 5 having a. common ground conductor 6 connected at I to said sleeve. A nonconducting plug 8 closes sleeve 3 and has a lamp contact terminal 9 thereon which with the sleeve lis adapted to engage for patents respectively entitled: IncandescentA in the usual manner the lamp socket contacts not shown.
The electrical circuits for the filaments are completed by the switch or selector means of my invention whereby one or more of the filaments may be energized as desired, depending upon the adjustment of said selector means. This means comprises an annular nonconducting band I0 secured by rivets II to the inside of the sleeve 3 which latter is open at points opposed to said bands as by means oi the openings in slots I2. Spring contacts I3, I4 and I5 are secured to said band by means of hollow rivets I6 and extend through the slots I2 so as' to be fully and permanently spaced, however, from contact withv said sleeve. Filament conductors I'l are extended through the rivets I6 and soldered thereto to connect said contacts with said filaments.
Rotatably mounted on the sleeve 3 is a non- I turned. The' contact segment I9 is at all times electrically connected with a contact 20 corresponding to the contacts I3, I4 and I5, and secured in like manner to the band I0. Contact 20 is connected with `lamp terminal contact 9 as here shown, by means of a. conductor 2 I, a contact 22 on the plug 8 and a fuse element 23 which latter is connected with said lamp terminal contact. This fuse element will provide protection against untimely burning out of the filaments and may be readily replaced when burned out, withoutl otherwise disturbing the lamp. However, if desired this fuse may be eliminated and an ordinary conductor used to connect contacts 20 and 9.
It will be noted that the coacting faces of the contacts I 3, I4, I5 and 20 and contact segment Il may be curved in cross section whereby said contacts ,will effectively hold the selector ring I8 against longitudinal displacement onlthe sleeve 3 while permitting said sleeve to rotate freely.
As shown in Fig. 6 the selector ring serves as an open switch and the filaments are deenergized. By turning the ring to the right to the extent indicated in Fig. 5, the filament connected with the contact I3 will be energized as the circuit for said filament will be established through the contact segment I9 which is at all times connected with the 1amp terminal contact 9 by means of the contact 20, conductor 2|, contact 22, and fuse element 23. As the selector ring is further rotated as Shown in Figs. 8 and 9, the other filaments will be progressively connected in the lamp circuit so that depending upon the adjustment of the selector ring, one, two or three filaments may be energized as desired.
To provide for operation of the ring I8 when the lamp is mounted out of the reach, a pull cord is employed, said cord being of any desired length depending on the height of the lamp. As here shown the cord 25 has one end thereof secured to a retractile spring 28 which is mounted in the grooved upper side of the ring I8 and has one end fixed as at 21 to the sleeve 3. After partly encircling the sleeve 3 the cord 25 extends through a groove 28 in said sleeve downwardly between the ring I8 and said sleeve and thereby hangs from the lower edge of said sleeve. On the spring 26 is a pawl member 29 adapted to cooperate with the circular series of ratchet teeth 3B formed on the rirrg I8. With each pull of the cord 25 the spring 28 will be stretched and the paWl 29 will engage with one of the teeth 30 whereby to turn the ring I8 as necessary to connect one or more of the filaments in the lamp circuit. Upon release of the cord' the spring 26 will move the pawl 29 free of the teeth 30 without turning the ring I8 and the pull cord operating means will return to normal position.
