FLOWER HOLDING VASE Filed March 18, 1940 I H" I' l I III "II INVENTOR.
I RLEVM ULLER BY U 'rr RNEY.
Patented Mar. 17, 1942 UNITED STATES ATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in flower holding vases and has particular reference to a vase that may be permanently secured in a concrete foundation and which is particularly useful in retaining therein flowers when it is desired to decorate a grave.
A further object of the invention is to provide means associated with the clamp and the vase whereby the flowers, after their period of usefulness, may be readily discarded without removing the vase from its support.
An additional object of the invention is the provision of a unique clamping means whereby the vase may be retained in an upright position without danger of accidental displacement of the same relative to the support.
A further object of the invention is to provide a vase and a support therefor that is economical to manufacture, simple in construction, positive in operation, and highly serviceable in use.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a section through the vase and its suppc-rt, with the foundation for the support likewise being shown in section;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the vase with the flowers 3 removed;
Fig, 3 is a similar view, showing the vase in a tilted position whereby flowers may be discarded therefrom; and
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a monument,
ily' discarding the used flowers from the vase, I have devised the present invention.
In the accompanying drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 4 designates a vase of ornamental appearance in which a number of flowers 5 are placed. The said vase is equipped with a base 6 equipped with a flared side portion 1. Hingedly connected to the base, as at 8, is a plate 9 supported by a {standard [I], the end of which is bent, as at H,
- and is embedded in a concrete or similar foundaticn I2.
As disclosed to advantage in Fig. 1, a spring clamp is indicated by the numeral I3 and is connected at one end, as at [4, to the undersurface of the plate 9 and has its upper end M in contact with the extension I of the base 6.
By virtue of the construction employed it will be obvious that the vase may be readily displaced from the top plate 9 until it assumes the dotted line position of Fig. 1, and thus the flowers can be readily discarded.
By virtue of the extension I provided on the base 6 a positive contact of the spring clamp with said basewill be assured, and, thus, danger of accidental displacement of the base relative to the plate will be eliminated.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to the material,
size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
In a device of the character described comprising a fixed support, a flower holding receptacle hingedly connected to said support, and clamping means associated with said receptacle and said support for retaining said receptacle in an upright position, said clamping means including a spring member connected to said support and detachably secured to an extensionof the receptacle.
CHARLES W. FULLER.
