IMPROVEMENT IN. LAMP-SHADE SUPPORTERS. .1
s 'eeiot non forming. art MIL otters ate No. 40,361 'datd'October 20, 1863.
To all whomit ma concern:
- Beit known that I, GHRIs'rrAN'REIoHMANN,
- of Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Lamp Shade Supporter; undl do'hereby declare-that the followingis afull, clear, and exact description of the same,
' reference bein g had tothe accompanying draw- -1ngs,'niaking a. part of this specification, in \vluch- Figure 1. is a side viewef my invention after being cut out from the sheet metal, and previous to being bent Fig. 2, a side view of. the same, bent and adjusted in proper form" for use; Fig. 3, plan or -top view'ot' the Similarletters of reference indicate eorre I I spond-ing parts intheseveral figures, This invention consists in stamping or cut-,- ting the shade-supporter in onepieoe out of a plate of sheet metal, and infsuch a, manner that it will be straight when firsteut, and-becapable of being bent in the formof a'eirele or band, and admitof being adjusted to the shade with the greatest facility. The object of the invention is to economize in the constructiou of shinle-supporters, both as regards labor and the consumption of stock, and at the same time obtain one equally as durableas any of those hitherto devised. To enable those skilled in the art tofull'y understand and'cons'trnct my invention, '1' will proceed to describe it. r
' A, Fig. l,- represents the supporter as it"is' .ent from the sheet metal.
It will be seen by referringto the above figure that it is a straight strip, a, provided at suitable distances apart, with three projections, a. a a, at its upper edge, and three pro- 'jcetions, I) I) I), at its lower edge. Each projeetion a is in line .with aprojection, b, and between the projections b at the lower edge of the strip there are smaller or shorter -projec-. tions, 0. 'lhereare alsoshort projections cl between the projections' a at the ,upperedge' ol' the strip, but these are desi gn-ed simply for ornament. "()no end- ,of this'strip hastwo slots, 0 u t vertically thronghjt, and the opposite end .is formed of a. narrow piece, I,
that may be ,passed' through;the :slots 0 0..
These parts are all cut at oneoperation out i of a sheet of metal, rolled or-spring brass being thepreferable material, and it will be seen by referring to Fig.1that they may be -cutout of a metal-plate with but a small waste -of stock,.th ered outline showing the second or adjoining cut. This is an important feature, for'waste metal is'on'ly worth one-half the first cost-of the stock, and in manufacturing a cheap article, like shade-supporters, this saving in the waste is a large item; This metal strip is bent or curved in the form of-a circle or band, as shown in Fig. .3, the piece f being passed through the slots 0 e, as shown in Fig. 2, and the end of f bent so as to form acateh, g, to
prevent f casually'drawing out of the slots 0 e. -,Tl1e'projections'a( b are then. bent inward 'in an-inclined position to form springs to grasp, the. lamp-chimney, and the short projections ;mi-ts of the supporter being readily adjusted" in 't heiorifice at the apex of the shade, and when the supporter is thus adjusted it is expanded so as to fit and bind firmly in the orifi'ee of the shade' By this construction leanmanufacture shadesupporters far cheaper. than any new in use, and equally as strong and durabl'e'and capable ot being ap ilied to' the shade with much greater facility.
I am aware-that it is not new to stamp or cut out the springs of'a lamp-shadesupport" ".with a portion of the body-of the same; This feature may be seen in a supporter, a patent for which was granted to William F. Shaw December-14,1858 In this inventioinliowever, the springs form partot' a circular plate,
which confines one of three pieces' of Wlnch the supporter is'eompos'ed. No material saving in stock isetfeoted bythis-plan-only a saving in'laiboixg I'do not claim, broadly,a lampshade-sup porter with springs all cut, out of a single piece of metal, irrespeetive-ofithe arrangement and construction of theparts as a whole.-
