EDWARD A. CONDIT, OF HOBOKEN,-NE\V JERSEY.
DRIP-CUP FOR LAMPS.
E31ECIFICATION formin part of Letters Patent No. 325,057, dated August 25, 1885.
Application filed May 17, 1 84. (No model.)
To (ZZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, EDWARD A. CONDIT, of Hoboken, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Drip-Cup for Lamp Chandeliers and Brackets, ofwhich the following isa full, clear, and exact description.
This invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate cor responding parts.
The figureisa side elevation ofalamp-bracket having my invention applied thereto, the dripeup being shown in sectional elevation.
The bracket A may be of the ordinary or of any approved construction, formed with the loop a, the lower end or portion of which is made to be the lowest part of the bracket. To this loop a is attached, by means of the small chain b, the dripcup B, which is thus suspended immediately below the loop a, so as to catch any overflow or drip that may come from the lamp 0, which drip or overflow will always follow the bracket and find its Way to the lowest point thereof.
The cup B is provided with the bail 0, the ends of which are connected to the staples c e, secured to the inside of and below the upper edge of the cup, so that the drip will follow down the bail c, and will be conducted by the bail wholly within the body of the cup B, thus preventing all danger of the oil following the outside of the cup and dripping off from the bottom thereof upon the floor or wall.
Instead of using the small chain 1) for attaching the dripcup to the bracket, a wire or other connection might be used, or the cup might be made permanent with the bracket; but I prefer to use the chain, since by its use the cup may be adjusted to a higher or lower position, and may be easily detached from the bracket for emptying and cleaning the cup.
My invention is applicable to lamp-brackets of all forms and to lampchandeliers, and by its use the annoyance due to overflow and dripping is entirely overcome.
I am aware that a dripcup has been provided with a bail secured to its upper edge, and I claim no such construction.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The drip cup for lamps herein described, consisting, essentially, of the cup B, internal staples, e e, and bail c, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with the lamp-bracket provided with loop at below the lamp, of the drip-cup 13, internal staples, e e, bail c, and chain 1), connecting the bail and loop, substantially as set forth.
EDWARD A. CONDIT.
