LANTERN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 285,880, dated October 2, 1,883.
(No model.)
To all whom, t may colweit:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK DIETZ, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Lanterns; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
The invention relates to that class of lanterns known as the tubular lantern.
The objects of my invention are to facilitate the filling, trimming, lighting, and extinguishing the lantern; to provide a guard inside the draft-tubes made fast to the perforated airplate, to furnish a meansfbrholdin g the burnercone securely in place, even when the glass globe becomes accidentally broken, and to otherwise improve the common tubular lantern, as hereinafter set forth. These objects I attain by means of mechanism represented by the accompanying drawings, in which- Figures l and 2 are elevations of my lantern, one side of the tubular frame being represented as broken away in Fig. l, in order to prevent it hiding other parts from view. Fig. 3 is a plan view ofthe lower part of the connection upon which the globe is hinged. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the perforated plate and guard, and Fig. 5 is an elevation of the lower part of the lantern.
In the drawings, A A designate the usual tubular frame; B, the central tube, leading therefrom tothe bell-top C. This tube I construct in two parts, which preferably lap one upon the other, as shown in Fig. l, the upper part being secured to the tubular frame A A and the lower part to the bell-top C. A swinging button or latch, a, holds said parts together.
From the bell-top O there extends downward, between the upright portions of the tubular frame A A, a globe-supporting frame, b'b. A seat, c, for the perforated air-plate D, is formed on the lower end of the frame l) b, 'and constitutes apart thereof. This seat may consist'o'f a collar made of a separate piece, or of a ring or coil formed in the wire of which the connecting-frame is composed, and it is of a size to t over the burner-cone and rest upon it. The
globe-supporting frame is extended laterally upon one side of the plate-seat c,where it 'forms a part of the hinge d, said hinge being sup- Y shown.
ported upon the lower part of the lantern, as It is obvious that this hinge forms no essential part of the globe-supporting frame as such, and I desire to cover the use of the seat c, in connection with the supporting side wires, whether a hinge is or is not employed.
The guarde consists of two rings of wire,held in proper position relatively to each other, and held also to the perforated air-plate by means of upright wires extending from the upper ring downward to the perforated plate. I insert the globe within the guard before securing the guard and globe in place.
Underneath the bell-top C is the ordinary spring, j', for securing the upper end of the globe. After placing the perforated air-plate upon the seat c, the globe can be placed upon said plate, and the plate and globe can be secured within the connecting-frame by means ofthe spring j', in the same manner as they have heretofore been secured between the burner-cone and bell-top, the seat c allowing the pl ate to rock or tilt thereon when the globe is being put in or taken out.,
Upon one side of the tubular frame A A, at a point just above the oil-reservoir, I Vplace a friction-tablet or matelrscratclng, as shown in Fig. 5.
By turning the button or latch n', the two parts of the central tube, B, may be disconnected, and the bell-top, perforated air-plate, guard, globe, and theV connecting-frame can all be swung sidewise -upon the hinge (l, as indicated by the broken lines in Fig. '1, thereby exposing the burner for lighting, &c.
Ordinarily the burners of these lanterns are not screwed into place, so that there is nothing to hold them from coming out, excepting the globe and the perforated plate; but in case my lantern should be overturned and the globe broken, the plateseat c would still hold the burner firmly in place, so that the oil would. not run out and become ignited.
Instead of the hinged button or latch, a sliding or rotary sleeve, or a spring-catch or other suitable fastening, may be employed to secure the two parts of thecentral tube together, and various details of construction may be varied without changing the general operation of the parts. v l
IOC
Y near the air-chamber or near the burner such frames could be rocked backward, carrying other portions of the lantern with them, and such organizations are not within the scope of my invention. vIn my lantern the tubular frame is left intact and rigid, and the globe yand connected parts swing between the side tubes of said frame, and the guard is still smaller, so as to be received between the side wires of the conneetingframes b b.
I also hereby disclaim `a lantern provided with a fixed tubular frame severed at a single point above the burner, so that abell-top carried by a hinged supporting-frame, which is held in place by a catch, and adapted to swing independently of the iiXed tubular frame, is rendered detachable therefrom; also ,a tubular lantern having a central tube divided into two parts, one part being adapted to swinglaterally with the hinged frame and globe, and mechanism for securing the twov parts together.
I claim as my invention-'- 1. In a tubular lantern, a globe-supporting frame bearing a seat for the perforated airplate, which seat is also adapted to rest upon the burner-cone and hold the same in place, substantially as described.
2. In a tubular lantern, the plate-seat c, between the burnercone andV the perforated plate, and connected to the globe-supporting frame, substantially as described.
3. The removable guard e, composed of the perforated plate and one or more rings united to each other and to the perforated plates by upright wires, which are disconnected from the other parts of the lantern, said guard be-A FRnDnRioK Dinrz.
