UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM H. H. HINDS, OF GROTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN LANTERNS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 42,659, dated May 10, 1864.
The nature of my invention consists in rais-- ing the candle, as it burns away, to the requisite height bymeans of a spring or otherwise, together with an awl and sleeve, as hereinatter described, for the purpose ot' adjusting it to any desirable position.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
A represents the ordinary hand-lantern; B, a tube, made. of tin or other metal, supporting or inclosin g spiral spring f, and entering the bottom of lantern a suitable distance. As the candle D burns away, the expansion of the spring pressing against its bottom will elevate uniformly the light to, its original height. E is a sleeve, into which the tube B is inserted when the lamp is designed to have a permanent position. This sleeve is firmly attached to the awl or standard P, which is sharpened at the extremity', that it may more easily penetrate the material when the lamp is required to be used.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The application to hand-lanterns of a tube, B, to support the candle l), and the spring f, inclosed within the tube, for the purposes herein described.
2. The standard P and sleeve E, for the support ot' the lantern, as above set forth.
WM. H. H. HINDS.
