1 Claim. 1
This invention relates generally to heating appliances and particularly to an andiron for re places.
The main object of this invention is to produce an improved form of andiron in which the portion most subject to deterioration can be easily replaced without replacing the entire andiron.
The second object is to so construct the andiron that it Iwill provide a wide spread for the ornamental posts on the outside of the fireplace screen and at the same time hold the log supporting feet at a desired distance.
The third object is to provide a set of andirons wherein the foregoing objects are attained without the use of long and dilicult castings and in which the parts will knock down to a convenient shipping size.
The fourth object is to so construct the andirons that they will be extremely rigid and will require the mini-mum amount of labor to assemble the same for use.
The fifth object is to make an andiron which Iwill set solidly on any hearth without subjecting the parts to strain under the action of heat.
I accomplish these and other objects in a manner set forth in the following specification as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig, 1 is a perspective View of the andiron base with the ornamental front removed.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the unit requiring most frequent replacement.
Fig. 3 is a plan of a pair of andirons with the ornamental units cut away in horizontal section.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary front elevation of a fireplace screen with the ornamental members in front of same.
Fig. 5 is a section taken along the line 5-5 in Fig. 3.
Like numbers of reference refer to the same or similar parts throughout 'the several views.
Referring in detail to the drawing, 'there is shown a fireplace screen I0 in front of which are the ornamental units II which it is desired to space farther apart than are the supports `on which the logs rest.
The supports consist of a horizontal bar I2 having a hearth engaging foot I3 at its rear end l downturned tapering shank I6. A key lug II is and a log stop I4 on its top side directly above formed on the rear side of the shank I6 at its junction with the bar I2.
A curved foot member I8 has one straight end I9 which terminates in the upturned standard 20 having a slot 2l formed therein. The standard 20 is secured to the unit l I 'by means of the bolts 22.
IThe foot member I8 has formed thereon, opposite the standard 20, a socket 23 which is tapered to receive the shank I6. The Socket 23 has formed in `its top side a key slot 24 which receives the key lug I1.
It can be seen that by making the sections I2 and i6 separable at the shank I6 and socket 23, a number of very desirable results are attained. Not only has the manufacture been simplified but it is possible to replace any burned or broken parts without replacing the entire andiron. More important still, owing to the socket connection, the curved foot member I 8 and the foot I 3 all nd uniform ysupport on the surface of the hearth.
I claim An andiron consisting of a curved elongated horizontal hearth engaging foot member having an upturned socket at one end and means for attaching an ornamental post at its other end in combination with a horizontal log supporting bar having upturned log stops at its ends and a downturned socketengaging shank at one end and a downturned hearth engaging foot at the other end thereof and means for holding said 'bar and curved foot member in alignment.
