JOSHUA W. GASKILL, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO JAMES WHITALL, JOHN M. \VIIITALL, AND JOHN WVHITALL NICHOLSON, OF SAME PLACE, JOHN MICKLE, OF MILLVILLE, NEW JERSEY, C. ALBERT TATUM, OF NEI/V YORK, AND FRANCIS M. UNDERHILL, OF BROOKLYN,
NEW YORK.
TUMBLER-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 399,870, dated March 19, 1889. Application filed December 31, 1888. Serial No. 295,009. (No modeLl To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSHUA W. GASKILL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented 5 certain Improvements in Tumbler-Holders,
of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to construct a tumbler-holder which will be self-adjusting to different sizes and shapes of tumblers or glasses within certain limits, so as to grasp and hold firmly such varying sizes and shapes.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved tumblerholder. Fig. 2 is a sectional view, in eleva- I 5 tion, of my improved holder and a glass in position to be placed in the holder. Fig. 3
represents the glass as held firmly within the holder. Fig.4 is a plan view of my improved holder, showing another form of handle; and Fig. 5 shows a modification.
The essential feature of myimproved holder is a frame with a suitable handle, or so constructed as to be conveniently grasped by the hand, and having levers so pivoted to the frame as to be adapted to bear against the -tumbler on opposite sides of their pivotingpoints and thus be self-adjusting to tumblers of varying sizes and shapes within certain limits.
In the present instance, and in the preferred form illustrated in Figs. 1 to 4, I have shown the frame of the holder as consisting of a plain band or ring, A, and I have made use of the supporting-legs of the holder to 5- act as the self-adjusting grasping levers. The band or ring A encircles the glass and has lugs or projections D, to which are pivoted at b the legs B. The legs B extend both above and below the band, the upper part 40 projecting slightly inward, while the lower part is curved inwardly, so that when the tumbler is placed within the holder the piv oted legs adjust themselves to bear against the glass at a: and 1 above and below the pivoting-points of the legs or levers, as shown 5 in Fig. 3.
The handle C may be secured to the frame A between two of the legs, or it may be made of such a shape that it will straddle one of the legs, as shown at Fig. 4, or it may be se cured to the frame or madeapart of the frame in any convenient way.
In the modification, Fig. 5, I have shown how the pivoted levers may be independent of the legs. In this case the frame is somewhat in the form of an open cup, A, with feet a, and the levers B are pivoted to the upper part of the cup or frame and extend both above and below their pivoting centers in such a way as to receive the tumbler and be self-adjusting to its outer walls, notwithstanding limited variations in diameter or taper, and by bearing on the tumbler both above and below the pivots of the levers the latter will hold the tumbler firmly. In this modification I have shown the handle as be ing of the form indicated in plan in Fig. 4.
I claim as my invention-- i 1. A tumbler-holder comprising. a frame with pivoted levers extending on opposite 7o sides of their pivoting-points to bear against the tumbler above and below those points, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A tumbler-holder comprising a frame with pivoted legs which have bearing-points for the tumbler above and below their pivots, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOSHUA W'. GASKILL.
