1'0 all iuhont it may concern/.-

Be it known' that I, JULIUS MOELLER, a

citizen of England, residing at 14:- Palmer,

Street, Westminster, London, England, have invented newand useful Improvements in Incande'scent Gas-Lamps, of which the following is aspecificatibn. I

Myinvention relatesto means for mounting- ,incandescent gas-burners in such a manner as to provide against shaking or vibration, such asmight cause damage to' the incandescent mantle, which is very fragile, as I shall describe, referring to the accompanying drawings.

ftional, the mounting of an incandescent burner in a street-lantern which maybe subject to shocks-and vibration resulting from' Figure 1 shows in elevation, partly sectraffic.- 2 shows in elevation, also partly sectional, the mounting of a chandelier carlight extensible spring E from across-piece or wires F, fixed on the upper part of the 1antern-frame L. lhe tube D, inclosing the s rin E serves to rotect ita ainst overheating or injury by the hot products of com-- bustion passing upward, and therefore it is preferably made of glass, ceramic, or other material which is a bad conductor of heat.

' WVhen springs are used,as'above described,

itis necessary to connect the pipe of the burner 13, whichis carried by the'sprin g or springs, to the fixed pipe M --by a connection which willadmit of their relative play. For this pur- Seriellio. 591,768. on model.)

pose both sections of the pipe are made to ter V The two" sections of pipe are thus.

.Having thus described the nature of my invention'and the best means I 'know for carrying the same into practicalefiect, I claim 1. In an incandescent gas-burner, a burnerpipe supported upon an'elasti'c spring, said burner-pipe being secured toa flat disk, a

disk secured to the end of the supply-pipe,

and flexible material secured toand joining the edges of the two disks; substantially as described.

combination with a gas-supply pipe, having springs secured thereto and-supporting the burnenarnhs, of a disk secured to the end of thesupply-pipe, a disk secured to the registeringend of the burner-pipe, and flexible material joining the edges of the two disks and form ing agas-tight scribed;

joint; substantially as fde In testimony whereof I havesigned my name tothis' specification, in thepresenceof' 2. In an incandescent-gas-chandelier, the
