G. A. KENNEDY.
LANTERN.-
No. 391,373. Patented Oct. 16, 1888.
via L v NITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE A. KENNEDY, OF OOATICOOK, QUEBEC, CANADA, ASSIGNOR TO CHARLES A. KENNEDY, OF SAME PLACE.
LANTERN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 391,373, dated October 16, 18E 8.
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. KENNEDY, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain, residing at Coatieook, in the Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lanterns, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to improvements in tubular and similar lanterns; and among the objects in view are to provide means for securel y supporting the chimney in position and for easily and quickly swinging the same for permitting access to the burner for the purpose of cleaning the same and lighting or trimming the wick.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will hereinafter be described, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a front elevation of a tubular lantern provided with my improvement. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail in front elevation, showing the means employed for securing the chimney-support in position; and Fig. 3 is a section on line m :r of Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures of the drawings.
A represents the oil-reservoir, and A the air-tubes, intermediate of which is the burner A all of which are of the usual construction.
At one side of the lantern, and pivoted at its top in a bearing, B, extending from the tube A, and at its lower end in a bearing, B at the lower endof the said tube, is a vertical rod, B, adapted to freely slide within its bearings. Extending from near the upper end of the rod B is a horizontal rigid arm, B", to the opposite end of which is rigidly connected the shield O, which shield is mounted and designed to slide vertically upon the usual depending central hot-air tube, 0.
Upon the rod B, and loosely fitting the same, is a sleeve, D, the upper end of which terminates at or about the termination of the lower end of the arm B which lower end forms a stop, 13*, for said sleeve, the lower end of the sleeve terminating at that point where the rod B enters the lower bearing, B Extending from the upper end of the sleeve D is an embracing-loop, D, which is formed of resilient wire and designed to be sprung upwardly for the purpose of introducing the upper ends of the chimney A. Projecting from the lower end of the sleeve D, and in a line with the loop D, is a similar loop, or it may be simply divergent arms D to which is rigidly secured the usual chimney-supporting plate, D in which the base of the chimney is seated and embraced by the peripheral flanges of said plate.
As thus far described it is apparent that the sleeve D may be slid vertically upon the rod B until the plate D is clear of the burner A, projecting upwardly through said plate. This upward movement of the sleeve, and consequently of the arm D D plate D, and chimney A, is permitted by the arm B, in that said rod B and shield G are also moved upwardly. When the chimney-supporting plate has reached a point above the burner A", said sleeve may be swung to one side, carrying the chimney from. over the burner and permitting the lighting of the lantern or the trimming of the wick. It will be noticed that in this swinging movement of the sleeve the shield 0 remains in the same vertical position or line, whereby the hand or arm holding the lantern by the usual bail is prevented from being burned by the hot air of the lantern.
As shown more particularly in Figs. 2 and 3, I have provided a simple fastening device by which the chimney and its support are prevented from swinging by reason of accidental jarring or waving, as the lamp is especially adapted for signaling, which device consists in the spring-arm E, projecting inwardly from the lower end of sleeve D, upon which may be secured a thumb-plate, E, for pressing said arm from under an ordinary vertical catch, E projecting in the path of said arm. By pressing the arm E inwardly from under the catch E the operation of raising and swinging, before described, may be accomplished.
\Vhat I claim is-- 1. The combination, in a lantern, of its frame, a vertically-sliding rod arranged at one side of the burner, and a swinging sleeve mounted on the rod and provided with chimneysupporting armsextending therefrom, substantially as specified.
ICO
2. The combination, in a lantern, of its frame, a vertically-sliding rod having a projecting arm carrying ashield, and a sleeve mounted and adapted to swing upon said rod 5 and provided with chimney-supporting arms,
substantially as specified.
3. The combination, in a lantern, of its frame, a vertically-sliding rod, and a swinging sleeve mounted thereon and provided at one [0 end with a rigid chimney-supporting arm and at the other end with a resilient chimneysnpporting arm, as and for the purpose specified.
4. The combination, in a lantern, of its frame, a vertioallysliding rod having a shield- [5 carrying arm forming a stop, and a chimneycarrying sleeve mounted on the rod and adapted to abut against said stop and raise the rod, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
5. The combination, with the tubes A and 20 C, ofa shield mounted for vertical movement upon the latter, the rod B, having bearings B 13 and the arm 13*, extending therefrom and connected to the shield, and the sleeve D, having arms D D and plate D substantially as specified.
6. The combination of the rod B, mounted in the bearings B 13 on that portion A of the frame, and having the sleeve D, provided with the resilient arm or loop D, and rigid arms D", having plate D the springarm E, provided with thumb-plate E, and the catch E extending into the path of said arm, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE A. KENNEDY.
