Nrrso rares FREDERICK DIETZ, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
LANTERN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 273,712, dated March .13, 1883.
Application filed November 2, 1882. (No model.)
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK DIETZ, of the city, county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lanterns, of which the following isa specication.
Tne invention relates to that class of lanterns known as the tubular77 lantern.
The object ot' my invention is to facilitate the ijlling, trimming,lighting,and extinguishing the lantern. I attain this object by means of the mechanism illustrated in the accompartying drawings, in which- Figure l is a front elevation 0f my lantern; Fig. 2, aside elevation ofthe same. Fig. 3 is a plan view of one ot' the spring-arms and one link. Fig. 4 is a t'ront elevation of a portion of my lantern as arranged without thelit'tinghandle, and Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the same.
In the drawings, A A designate the usual side draft-tuhesot the tubular trame, B the central tube, and C the bell-top. This top I fitto slideup and down upon the tube B, land provide it with a suitable strengtheningwire, h, which extends upwardly from said bell-top through suitable loops or guides m by the sides of the central draft-tube, B. This strengthening-wire is mainly for the purpose of giving a better support for the bell-top, and it may 0r may not be provided with the handle a. To the under side of this hell-top C, I attach the ordinary spring, b, for holding the upper end of the globe in plat-e in the ordinary manner, and also a vertically-sliding globesupporting,r frame consisting' ol' two side wires, c c, and a ring or collar at their lower ends, which forms a seat for encircling the burnercone D and for the usual perforated air-plate E to rest upon. I secure two spring-n ires. d d. to the globe-supporting frame, preferably at the lower end ot' the frame, and to the outer ends ofeach of said arins I hinge a link, e. The other ends of these links e e are hinged to the side draft-tubes, A A..
I prefer to secure the guard g to the perforated air-plate E as shown; butit may be attached in any other manner, or omitted, it' desired. The globe F is placed upon the perforated air-plate E. Said plate is then placed on the seat at the lower end of the globe-snpporting frame and secured by the spring b to hold it Within said frame. The ring-shaped seatis small enough to allow the perforated ing it upward, the. hell-top, globe-supporting frame, perforated airplate,and the globe may he raised into the position indicated b v broken lines in Fig. l for convenience in the trimming, lighting. 85e., of the lantern. In thus raising the globe, Src., the spring-arms d d yield a little to allow the links e e to swing upward, the l'ace ot' said arms` acting to resist said movement until the'A links have passed a certain point, after which the arms assist in l'oreing the globe, &c., upward, and then hold it in its elevated position. By depressingthehandle orotherpai t moving with the fra-ine the. springarms will yield to allow the parts to descend, and alter they have descended a give-n distance said arms cause the globe, die., to snap down into place secure against accidental remov-al.
Figs. 4 and 5 show the strengthening-wire h without the handle a, and, instead ofthe guides m m, loops m m are secured to the sides ofthe tube B to guide said wire L.
I prefer to forni the links of a tlat piece of metal having a roll or bend at the ends t0 t'orm halt'ot' a hinge, and to make the springarms of wire bent as shown in Figs. l and 3; but they may be otherwise constructed and still perform the saine otice in the combination, as hereinhel'ore specified.
I claim as my invention- 1. In a tnbnlar lantern, the combination ot' the vertically-sliding globe-supporting frame, the spring-arms, and the links whose ends are pivoted or hinged to the side draft-tubes and spring arms, respectively, substantially as described, and for the purpose specified.
2. The combination of the vertically-sliding globe-supportingframe, the central draft-tube, B, the bell-top sliding thereon, the strengthening-wire,either with 0r without a handle litted to slide in suitable guides by the sides of the tube B, the spring-arms, and the links whose ends are pivoted or hinged to the side drafttubes and spring-arms, respectively, substantially as described, and for the purpose speci- FREDERICK DIETZ.
