SHADE-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 511,136, dated December 19, 1893.
Application filed March 12, 1892- Serial No. 424,729- (No model- To aZZ whom it 12mg concern-.-
Be it known that I, JOHN F. GRILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Evansville, county of Vanderburg, and State of Indiana, haveinvented anew and useful Incandescent- Electric-Light Shade Holder and Support, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the invention is to provide a holder for display cards for advertising purposes, which may be attached to anything permitting it and especially toincandescent electrio lights and to provide a holder for incan-.
descent electric light shades, and also a sup port by means of which the light may be elevated and thrown in any direction. I attain this object by means of a machine or contrivance composed of any flexible metal especially of tin, zinc, &c.,cutin the form shown in Figure l consisting of a body A with a narrow extension B at one end and perforated at other end (perforation c), with three prongs D D D projecting from lower and one E from upper side. The three lower prongs are bent to become perpendicular to the body. The body 25 is then bent inwardly approaching a circular form as shown in Fig. 2.
The contrivance is attached to anything permitting it by inserting the narrow extension B through the aperture 0, and bending it back to form a clasp.
The shade or display card,h aving a circular aperture in its center is attached by inserting the ends of prongs D, D, D through the shade or card from the outside thereof and bending them inwardly, or by bending the ends of the prongs over a card or other substance to form a surface to which the card or shade may be aiiixed by any adhesive substance.
When the instrument is attached to an in- 40 candesoent electric light socket with cord pendant, the upper prong E forms a support for the light by means whereof the light may be raised to any position approximating a horizontal one by bending the prong over and around the cord. This in connection with the rotary motion afiorded by tightening or loosening the cord, allows the light to be thrown and held in any direction.
I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. An electric light shadesupport composed of a band of any flexible metal, haviuga narrow extension at one end for insertion into perforation at other end and attachment by bendingbackward and having prongs extending outward from bottom thereof for insertion through shade and attachment thereto by bending backward and having a prong ex tending upward from top thereof for attachment by bending around cord as described.
2. An electric light shade support consisting of flexible metal cut so as to form a strip with prongs projecting downward from bottom and a prong projecting upward from top thereof and with a narrow extension at one and a perforation in the other end thereof for purposeof the insertion of the narrow extension through perforation, and of the lower prongs through a shade and of passing the upper prong around a cord as described.
