Description
Dec. 23, 1952 J.JACQUES ETAL BASE FOR CIGARETTE LIGHTERS OR SIMILAR ARTICLES Filed Aug. 24. 1950 INVENTOR. William J. Rellly BY Joseph Jacques Patented Dec. 23, 1952 UNITED STATES TEN BASE FOR CIGARETTE LIGHTERS "OR- SIIVIILAR ARTECLES Application August 2-4, 1959, Serial No. 131,29
2 Ciaims. 1
This invention relates to a base for a cigarette lighter or similar article such as a cigarette urn.
Heretoiore in forming a base for a cigarette lighter or similar article of the construction herein shown the cup for receiving the reniovable lighter unit was soldered in position and a base was soldered to the casing. Usually the casing was formed of two parts which were attached by hard solder which required that the cup and base be soft soldered in position. Great care and skill was required to accomplish this.
One of the objects of this invention is to eliminate the necessity of soldering a cup and base in position.
Another object is to provide a. construction of the character here involved which will be much simpler in assembly than the structures heretofore provided.
Another object of the invention is to reduce the necessity of skilled labor.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, as will be more fully described, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is an elevation of a portion of the base for a cigarette lighter constructed in accordance with this invention;
Figure 2 is ,a central sectional view thereof;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the member which is used for holding parts of the lighter assembled.
With reference to the drawings, It designates a casing which is illustrated as in the shape of a horn of plenty. It is formed in halves which are secured together along a central longitudinally extending line by hard solder. This enables certain ornamental features II to be provided in the horn by striking the same in a dye. This casing when so formed is open at its end [2, which end by reason of the curved shape of the horn extends generally upwardly at an angle to the vertical. When the horn is positioned in substantially the position shown in the drawings, a protrusion l4 serves as a means against which the base 15 may abut. A cup It in which the removable lighter unit is positioned, extends into the opening I! at the end of the horn and is flanged as at I! to engage the marginal edge of the opening l2.
Instead of soldering the cup 16 in this opening and soldering the base 15 to the portion Hi, we have provided a member [1, shown in perspective in Fig. 3, which has a horizontal portion [8, an angular portion I9 leading therefrom, and another portion 2|] at right angles thereto with a (GE. ma ic) hole 2| therein. This portion 25 will engage the bottom 22 of the cup. A rivet 23 extends through an opening in the bottom of the cup and through this opening 2! with heads at its ends so as to hold the cup assembled with this member ll. This riveting occurs prior of the positioning of the cup and member into the horn through the opening iii. A threaded opening 24 is so located in the portion it that it will register with an opening 25 through the base ii for the reception of a screw 29 having a head 27 which engages threads: in the opening 24 so as to draw the cup inwardly that its flange ii may snugly engage the opening !2 and also to secure the base in contact with the projection it. In this manner the base and cup may be easily and quickly secured in place without the need of soldering and thus much less skilled operators may be used.
We claim:
1. In a device of the class described a casing closed at one end and open at its other end, a relatively deep cup opening upwardly in said casing with a flange engaging the edge of said opening, a base beneath said casing at a location intermediate the ends thereof upon which said casing rests and a member Within said casing to which said cup and base are secured to hold them assembled with said case.
2. In a device of the class described an elongated tubular casing closed at one end, open at the other end, and having a generally horizontal extending fiat portion thereon intermediate the ends thereof, a cup in said casing with a flange about the opening of said cup engaging the edge wall about the opening in said casing, a base engaging said fiat portion and upon which said casing rests and a member within said casing to which said cup and base are secured to hold said casing, cup and base in assembled relation.
