ADDISON F. VESTAL AND CHARLES A. VESTAL, OF SAVOY, TEXAS.
HOLDER FOR SHADES AND REFLECTORS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Application filed July 3, 1885.
To all whom if/'may concern.-
Be it known that we, A. F. VEsTAL and C. A. VESTAL, of1 Savoy, in the county 0f Fannin and State of rleXas, have invented an Improved Holder f'or Shades and Reflectors, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the invention is to improve holders for lamp shades and reflectors, as hereinafter described,and pointed out in the claim.
Figure l of the drawings is a perspective View showing our detachable frame supported on the lamp and itself supporting the refiector. Fig. 2 is a detail View showing our lamp attachment without the reflector, and with its severalparts in clear view.
In the drawings, A is the lamp, having the handle a, by which it may be carried about in the hand, and the upward projection a, provided With a hole, by which it may be hung up on a wall or other suitable position. It is also preferably made with a flat bottom, so that it may be conveniently placed upon a stand or table. B represents any improved burner.
C is the reflector, which is made comparatively shallow and to consist of the circular central disk, c, successively shallower concentric surfaces c c2 c3, and an outer rim, 0*. This construction causes a broader reflection and greater diffusion of the light, which is very desirable in bracket-lamps for many purposes.
D is our attachment, which contains the spring-wire d, to one end of' which is secured the reector C. This may be effected by wrapping an excised or cut piece of the rim aand Patent No. 335,788, dated February 91886.
Serial No. 170,650. (No model.)
rolling it about the wire, the two being held together by solder, or in any other suitable way. The wire is then passed through eyes e of the radial arms E, which branch out at equal distances apart from the central ring or collar, F. The latter sets over and around the neck of the burner. The arms E are not onlyr provided with eyes at one end, but are threaded at the other, so as to screw into corresponding female threads at the points f. In this consists an important part of our invention, because by screwing them in or through the ring F we can clamp the attachment to different sizes of' burners, while the wire d, being open and elastic, can be made to overlap at its ends, so as to make its circle of greater or less diameter.
Having thus described all that is necessary to a full understanding of our invention,what we claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is
The combination, with a lamp-burner and its reflector, of a collar, F, having the female threads f, the radial arms E, correspondingly threaded at the inner end, and having eyes at the outer end, and the spring-wire or cut ring d, carrying the reflector on one end, as and for the purpose specied.
