MOUNTING FOR ILLUMINATING GLOBES Filed June 24, 1937 INVENTOR. i a arana fife/Jan ATTORNEYS.
Patented Feb. 28, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,149,228 MOUNTING FOR ILLUMINATIN G GLOBE S Edward A. Peterson, Indianapolis, Ind., assignor to The Geo. F. Cram Company, Indianapolis, Ind., a corporation of Illinois Application June 24, 1937, Serial No. 150,052 6 Claims. (Cl. 240-2) My invention rleates to improvements in tertion is screw threaded as at IE to receive a coiled restrial globes and has for one of its primary obspring l6 which, in turn, supports the lamp sockjects to provide an illuminated terrestrial globe et I! provided with an illuminated lamp l8. The which may be readily removed from its supports lamp socket I7 is provided with a threaded stem without unnecessary displacement of the parts I9 which threads into the upper end of the coiled and the unnecessary displacement of the illumispring I6, the stem l9 and the top of the post nating lamp which is adapted to project into the i5, however, being suificiently spaced apart so that a resilient coupling is provided between the Another object of my invention is to provide lamp socket I1 and the post 6. The globe 3 is an illuminated terrestrial globe which may be adapted, at its lower end, to be supported on the 1 ing the associated parts of the structure. at the upper end of the meridian ring 2. It will have illustrated an embodiment thereof in the m m er II and th pin 0 ar in dent with accompanying drawing, in which: the polar axis of the globe so that the globe will Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a globe embodying be supported to rotate on its polar axis and that my invention, and when supported in this position, a firm support Fig. 2'is a detail sectional view showing the is p d y t disc globe mounted. Due to the fact that, in order to remove the In the embodiment of the invention illustrated, globe m the m d an r n th globe mus be I provide a suitable supporting base I which may swung laterally so that it will clear the top of the be of any desired structure and on thi base is meridian ring before it can be moved vertically within this meridian and is rotatable on its polar t t an ng re W l e sufficient be printed directly on the globe or may be printed ily lfemovede Same ner the globe may 40 Within which is supported a post 6 which may be to receive th Securing pin 0' h p in will 40 porting washer 8 and surrounding the post and ficiently stiff to maintain the lamp socket in an face for the globe. The globe is provided with ting a free rotation of the globe. 60 an opening in its lower end sufliciently large to I claim as my invention: accommodate the bearing member II and the 1. In a mounting for hollow terrestrial globes walls of this opening are protected by a sheet having an opening therein to receive an illumi metal grommet l4. Ihe post 6 is adapted to be nant, the combination with a base and ameridian extended above the disc 9 and this extended porring supported thereb of a globe support rigidly mounted on said ring comprising a supporting member adapted to receive and support said globe and a bearing member extending upwardly from said supporting member and adapted to project into the opening of said globe, at second support for the globe mounted on said meridian ring diametrically opposite said first support and releasable to free the globe therefrom, said bearing member and supports having a common axis, a lamp socket adapted to be projected into the globe and means carried by said base for supporting said lamp socket to permit the same to swing thereon at an angle to its axis, said means normally supporting said lamp socket on an axis substantially coincident with the axis of said supports.
2. In a mounting for hollow terrestrial globes having an opening therein to receive an illuminant, the combination with a base and a meridian ring supported thereby, of a globe support carried by said base comprising a supporting member adapted to support the globe and a bearing member extending upwardly from said supporting member and adapted to project into said opening, a second support for the globe mounted on said meridian ring diametrically opposite said first support and releasable to free the globe therefrom, said first-mentioned support being rigidly supported by said base, a lamp socket adapted to be projected into the globe through said opening and a flexible support for said lamp socket carried by said base normally maintaining the same in substantial axial coincidence with the axes of said supports and sufficiently flexible to permit the lamp socket to be swung out of axial alignment.
3. In a mounting for hollow terrestrial globes having an opening therein, the combination with a base and a meridian ring supported thereby, of a globe support. mounted on said base comprising a supporting member adapted to receive and support said globe and a bearing member extending upwardly from said supporting member adapted to project through the 'opening in said globe, a second support for the globe carried by said meridian ring diametrically opposite said first support and releasable to free the globe therefrom, said bearing and supports having a common axis, a lamp socket adapted to be pr0- jected into the globe through said opening and a coiled spring extending upwardly from said first-mentioned support and adapted to receive the lower end of said lamp socket to provide a flexible coupling between said lamp socket and the meridian ring.
4. In a mounting for hollow terrestrial globes having an opening therein, the combination with a base and a meridian ring supported thereby, of a post extending upwardly from said meridian ring, a support for the globe mounted on said meridian ring diametrically opposite said post and in axial alignment therewith and releasable from the globe, a second support for the globe comprising a disc rigidly mounted on said post adapted to support the globe and having an anspaced apart from the periphery of said disc to provide a shoulder on said disc adapted to project into the opening of said globe, a coiled spring mountedron said post and a lamp socket supported by said coiled spring.
5. In a mounting for hollow terrestrial globes having an opening therein to receive an illuminant, the combination with a meridian ring of means associated therewith for rotatably and tiltably supporting said globe, a second support mounted on said ring diametrically opposite said first support and releasable to permit said globe to tilt, a lamp socket associated with said supporting means and normally supported with its axis substantially coincident with the axis of the globe and projecting into the globe, and a resilient mounting for said lamp socket associated with said support adapted tomaintain said lamp socket in its normal position while permitting said lamp socket to be deflected relatively to said support.
6. In a globe mounting for hollow terrestrial globes having an opening therein to receive an illuminant, the combination with a base and a meridian ring supported thereby, of a globe support carried by said base adapted to receive and support the globe, a bearing member on said support arranged to extend into said opening and provide a bearing therefor, said support and bearing member being rigidly supported on said base, a second support for said globe mounted on said meridian ring diametrically opposite said first-mentioned support, means for holding said globe on said base with its rotatable axis coincident with the axis of said bearing member, a lamp socket adapted to project into said globe through said opening and normally supported on said base with its axis coincident with the rotatable axis of the globe, and a flexible support for said lamp socket carried by said base to permit said socket to be deflected from its normal position during the removal of the globe from said support.
