Fabbrica Macchine ed Apparecchi Fototecnrcl,
Bolzano, litaly Filed Mar. 21, I961, er. No. 97,266 Claims priority, application ltaiy Ma 5, it Qlairns. (Ql. Mil-15) This invention relates to a flash lamp unit in which a protective transparent plate is positioned in front of the flash lamp, and it more particularly relates to such a unit which automatically moves its protective plate out of the path of the flash lamp when it is ejected.
Flash lamps or bulbs used in photography often explode flinging splinters of glass all about. The manufacturers of these flash lamps, therefore, recommend that a protective shield be positioned in front of the bulb to prevent the splinters from flying if it should explode. However, most existing flash bulb units do not provide protective plates of this sort, and those that do require that they be removed by hand before the used flash lamp can be injected.
An object of this invention is to provide a hash lamp unit having a protective plate in front of the flash lamp which is automatically moved out of the way when the flash bulb is ejected.
Another object is to provide such a unit which is relatively simple and economical to manufacture.
In accordance with this invention a transparent door is movably mounted upon the unit in front of the reflective recess within which the flash bulb is inserted. An ejector is mounted upon the casing adjacent the flash lamp socket by a translating means for movement through the socket to eject the flash lamp. A linking means connects the ejector to the driving means which reacts between the door and the casing for moving it away from the opening. This causes the driving means to automatically move the door out of the path of movement of a flash lamp when the ejector is actuated. The driving means is conveniently provided by a spring which reacts between the door and the casing, and a latch connects the door to the ejector which releases it when actuated. The latch and ejector may be combined in a unitary actuating element which includes a latching arm and an ejecting arm.
Novel features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to one skilled in the art from a reading of the following description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein similar reference characters refer to similar parts and in which:
FIGS. 1 and 2 are respectively front and rear perspective views of one embodiment of this invention;
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken through FIG. 1 along the line 22; and
FIG. 4 is an exploded view of parts of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3.
In FIGS. 13 is shown a flash lamp unit including a casing having a front section 1 and a rear portion 3. As shown in FIG. 3, reflector section 2, which forms an inner surface of the casing and a wall of recess 2a, is secured to front housing portion 1. Transparent plate 5, which is for example formed of a strong acrylic plastic, is movably or rotatably mounted about the axis of rotation provided by shaft 4. Plate or door 5 covers the open side of the casing communicating with recess 2a. A driving means, such as torsion spring 6, reacts between door 5 and the casing for moving door 5 away from the opening in front of recess 2a. A socket means 3 including a pair of leaf springs 8a is mounted within recess 2a to provide a means for holding flash lamp 7 and for providing electric current to it.
An ejector 1% is mounted upon the casing adjacent socket 8. Ejector 1% is rotatably mounted about the axis of rotation of shaft 11, and a torsion spring 12 urges it into the closed or latched position shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 in solid outline. Shaft it and its associated bearing 11a shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 constitutes a means for translating the ejector through socket S for ejecting a flash lamp 7 therefrom. Arm 14 of ejector means It) includes a hook is which engages a correspondingly formed indentation 16 at the end of door 5 for inactivating spring 6 which urges door 5 into the opened position indicated in broken outline in FIG. 3. Door 5 accordingly constitutes a linking means which connects ejector 1% with driving spring 6.
In FIG. 3 flash lamp 7 is shown in solid outline in the firing position with its base located by surfaces as and 22. in front of ejector 16 shown in solid outline. The side of flash lamp 7 rests against ribs 9 which extend from the rear of the concavely formed wall of reflector 2. An electrical cable 24 extends into the interior of the rear casing half 3 for connecting the flash lamp unit to a camera (not shown) through a plug 26 shown in FIG. 4.
FIG. 4 shows upper casing half 1 including door 5 which is rotatably mounted upon it by means of a hinge 28 to which is attached concave reflector 2 which forms a wall of recess 2a. The surface of reflector 2 directed toward the opening closed by door 5 is reflectively coated, such as by aluminum plating it. Indentation 16 upon the end of door 5 is shown in FIG. 4 as well as the cooperating hooked tip 15 of lever 10 in connection to rear casing portion 3. FIG. 4 also shows the details of ejector it including latching arm 14 and ejecting arm 18 which pass between the prongs 3a of socket S. Ejector 19 is urged into the latched position by torsion spring 12 which is mounted over shaft 11 of ejector It? and reacts between bearing post 39 and the side of ejector it, to urge it into the latched position.
The electrical portions of the apparatus are also shown in FIG. 4, and they include a battery 32, which is for example a fifteen volt dry cell, and a capacitor 34 rated at for example ,c F. A resistor 36 is also included within the electrical circuit, which is connected to the base 38 of prongs 3. These electrical aspects will not be further described because very many conventional electrical circuits are operative of this device.
A mounting flange 49 is connected to the side of rear casing portion 3 to provide means for connecting the flash lamp unit to a camera, (not shown) in a conventional manner. A spring clip 42 is mounted within mounting flan e 4% for detachably securing casing portions 1 and 3 together. Reflector 2:1 as shown in FIG. 4 also includes a slot 2b through which ejector 16 moves to eject a flash lamp from socket 8.
In the closed condition the arms 14 and 13 of ejector 15) as shown in FIG. 2 are aligned with the rear and end walls of the casing. The rear end of casing halves l and 3 therefore incorporates slot 43 shown in FIG. 2 which receives lever 10. The front end 44 of lever arm 14 is formed as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 to provide a protuberance which is knurled to provide a means for grasping lever ill to operate it.
Operation FIG. 3 shows in solid outline the position of flash lamp 7 inserted within socket 8 and resting against reference surfaces 9. The base of lamp 7 is located between stop surfaces 20 and 22 of ejecting lever 10. In this position door 5 is maintained latched closed and transmits the latching effect of book 15 of lever If! to inactivate' the driving force of torsion spring 6 which is reacting at hinge 28 against door 5.
After flash bulb 7 has fired, lever i grasped at tip 44 by a finger of the operator, as shown in FIG. 3, and rotated to the position shown in broken outline. As lever 19 is rotated ejecting arm 18 moves through prongs 8a and ejects flash bulb 7 in the manner shown in broken outline in FIG. 3. However, lever 10 in its initial phase of movement releases its hook from latching surface 16 of door 5 to allow driving spring 6 to fling door 5 suddenly open to the broken outline position shown in FIG. 3. This autmatically moves door 5 out of the path of flash lamp 7 as it is being ejected. Spring 12 then snaps lever 10 back to its latching position after it released for engaging door 5 when it is manually rotated intothe closed position. Before door 5 is closed, a new flash lamp 7 is inserted into socket 8; The inclined surface 46 at the tip of end 44 of lever 10 permits door 5 to shove lever 10 aside against the-force of'spring 12 to engage indentation 16 within hook 15.
