UNITE' STATES JAMES S. HAVENS, OF OGDENSBURG, NEW YORK.
GAS-LIGHT REFLECTOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 271,451, dated January 30, 1883.
' Application filed June 15, 1882. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it known that I, JAMES S. HAVENS, of Ogdensburg, in the county of St. Lawrence and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Gas-Light Reflectors, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention consists of improvements in the construction of reflectors for gas-lights, whereby it is designed to magnify the light and reflect the same to better advantage than is accomplished by the reflectors now in use, as hereinafter fully described.
Reference is to be had to theaccompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved reflector, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the reflectors and the smoke-bell separately represented. a
A represents a cast-metal ceiling-plate, from which the reflector is to be suspended by chains a in the usual way, said ceiling-plate being secured in its position by the gas-T I), screwed on the gas-pipe c for the connection of the pipe (I, by which the gas is coud ucted to the burner 0. The ornamental baudfis suspended from the chains, and the cone 9, made of polished metal, and having an open top and a convex glass bottom, 71 is suspended under the burner by the chains i from the bottom of said band. The cone 9 being located under the light, said light is thereby magnified and reflected down-. ward over a certain diameter of space, dependent on the height of the reflector from the floor. j is a reflecting-cone located above the light, its base being supported by the baud f I on lugs thereof, attached to the interior near the bottom of said band. By the interior surface of this cone the light is also reflected downward and over a large space, and said cone, being made of opal glass, allows the light to pass through itand illuminate the band j, which, being stenciled, affords a highly ornamental appearance. The cone j has an ornamental band, It, applied to its top, and above said cone is the smoke-bell l, which also has an ornamental band, m, around its base, by which the ornamental effect isiucreased. The band f is provided with pendent prisms of glass, n, for ornamentation and reflection, as other reflectors are. The said band is provided with stiffening-rings of wire 0, located in grooves pressed in the interior surface of the band.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is y l. The combination, in a reflector, of a ceiling-plate,A,secured in its position by the connection b of the gas-pipe d, the stenciled ornamental baud f, suspended from said plate by chains a, cone 9, suspended from said band by chains i, and the cone j, secured by its base within the bandf, substantially as specified.
2. The combination of polished metal cone 9, having open top and convex glass bottom It,
with a gas-burner, e, substantial] y as described. 3. The combination of cone g, having open top and glass bottom, with couej, bandf, and burner e, substantially as described.
