UNITED STATES PATENT QFFEQEO JOHN IVRIGHT, OF HOOSIGK FALLS, NEW YORK.
GAS-BRACKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 384,302, dated 311110 12, 1888.
Application filed August II, 1837. Serial No. 246,710. (.To model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JoHN WRIGHT, a citizen ofthe U nited States, residing at Hoosick Falls, in the county of Rensselaer, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gas-Brackets, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention has relation to chandeliers and gas-brackets, and among the objects in view are to provide a natural or artificial horn with means whereby the same is adapted to act as such, by which a neat, novel, and finished chandelier or bracket is provided.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will hereinafter appear, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a per speet-ivc ofa chandelierprovidedwithabracket constructed in conformity with myinvention. Fig. 2 is a similar view of a single bracket. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of a double bracket. Fig. 4 is a similar View applied to a newel-post. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section of one of the brackets; Fig. 6, a detail in vertical section of the tip; and Fig. 7, a sect-ion of a modification.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
In carrying out my invention I propose to use either the natural horn, or, if desired, I may use an artificial horn or bracket, A, suitably polished. I prefer, however, to use the natural horn, as it is cheaper and more handsome. The horn is first cleaned of all animal matter and otherwise carefully prepared and finished, and a small aperture bored through its tip to register with the inside of the horn. Through the hotly of the horn is passed a pipe, B, having an exterior screw-threaded end, B, for attachment to the service-pipe X of a gas system, and it may be screw-threaded interiorl y at its opposite end for connection with a smaller pipe or tube, 0, passed through the Small bore Ain the horn-tip. A non-heat-conducting filling of cement and plaster-of-paris or other material is poured into the horn and allowed to set, by which the pipe B is held in place, the horn strengthened, and the heat from the pipeprevented from coming into contact with the born. A. metal cap, D, having a central perforation, D, to receive the pipe B,
and a flange, D to fit the buttof thehorn, is fitted t0 the larger end of the same.
The tip of the born A is provided with screw-threads A over which is fitted a screwthreadcd metal thimble, E, having an interior screw-threaded portion, E, to lit the tip of the horn-shaped bracket, and a polygonal flange, E", by which a wrench maybe applied for seating and nnseating the same. At the upper end is formed a screw-threaded nipple, E to which an ordinary burner tip, F, may be applied.
As thus described, the bracket is capable of being applied to an ordinary service-pipe or used as the arms of a chandelier.
As shown in Fig. 3, a handsome double bracket may be easily construct-ed. In this instance a rosette,G, provided with the branch pipes X, is secured to the wall, and to these the horn-shaped brackets are connected in the manner described,and by reason of the natural curvature of the horns is exposed to view, thus enhancing the beauty of the design.
Numerous means may be conceived of mounting and arranging myhorn-shaped arm, all of which I deem within the scope of my invention.
If desired, I may use the bracket shown to support the electriclights, as shown in Fig. 3, in which case the tubes may or may not be employed.
In Fig. 7 I have shown a modified form, the
horn-shaped bracket being formed of sheet metal. The bracket is holl0w,and a plug having a screw-threaded aperture is inserted in the larger end of the bracket, and to this is connected the service-pipe surrounded by the usual rosette or flange.
\Vhat I claim isl. A horn-shaped arm for a bracket or chan delier formed with an air-space extending from the top or smaller end tothc larger end there of, and provided with a pipe and with a burner-rec'eiving connection at its opposite ends, substantially as specified.
2. In an arm for a bracket or chandelier, the combination of a curved natural horn, a burner-connecting piece secured to its smallerend, and an arm-supporting piece secured to its large end, substantially as specified.
3. A horn-shaped arm or bracket having an aperture extending from tip to butt, in combination with a pipe passing throughout, a nonbored and screw-threaded,as at A A and havconducting filling, a flange-plate embracing ing the screw-threaded pipe B,the plate D, the butt of the horn, and a tip-receiving thimflanged, as at D perforated, as at D, the tube I 5 ble mounted on the tip ofthe bracket, sub- 0, the thimble E, screw-threaded, as at E A 5 stantially as specified. and flanged,as at E, and the burnertip F, sub- 4. A horn-shaped bracket, A, bored as at stantially as specified. A, and having the tubes or.pipes B C, the In testimony whereof Iaffix my signature in former screw-threaded, as at B, in eombinapresence of two witnesses. tion with the thimble E, tip F, and plate D, JOHN WEIGHT. :0 substantially as specified.
