SUPPORT FOR PICTURE-FRAMES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 597,426, dated January 18, 1898.
Application filed April 21, 1897.
tore-frames, mirrors, and similar articles; and
the object thereof is to provide an improved device of this class which is simple in construction and operation and comparatively inexpensive.
The inventionis fully disclosed in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawings form a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by the same numerals of reference in each of the views, and in which Figure 1 is a side view of my improved support, showing the same connected with a picture-frame and showing the method of its operation; and Fig. 2, a back view thereof.
In the drawings forming part of this specification I have shown at 5 a portion of a wall, and at 6 an ordinary picture or mirror frame, and in the practice of my invention I secure in the wall 5 a nail, hook, or similar device 7, and I provide a support of the class specified, which consists of two parts, each of which is composed of spring-wire or small rods. The upper part of the said device consists of a wire or red bent centrally to form a loop 8, the sides thereof being brought together at 9 and then bent outwardly and upwardly to form arms 10, which are provided with hooks or eyes 11, through which are passed staples 12,which are driven into the upper end of the back'of the frame. The other part is telescopic in form, and consists of a rod 13, which is provided at one end with a ring or eye 14, through which the upper part of the device is passed, the arms 10 thereof being passed through said ring or eye 1i before being bent outwardly and upwardly, as described, and the lower end of the rod 13 is provided with a ring or eye 15, which is bent at right angles Serial No. 633,091, (No model.)
ring or eye 17, through which the rod 13 passes, and the lower end of the rod 13 is provided with a head 18, bymeans of which it is secured to the lower portion of the frame of the picture.
Mounted on one of the rods 13 or 16 (on the rod 16) as shown on the drawings, is a friction-coil 19, and the form of these parts is such that the space between the rods 13 and 16 is slightly wider at one end than at the other, and by moving said friction-ooil 19 in one direction the said rods 13 and 16 may be longitudinally adj usted,while by moving said friction-coil in the opposite direction the said rods 13 and 16 will be held at any desired point, and the lower part of the holder may thus be adjusted to suit frames of different lengths.
It will be understood that this device may be connected with pictureframes, mirrorframes, or any kind or class of frames or devices which it is desired to suspend from a wall or other support, and in practiceall that is necessary is to connect the attachment with the back of the frame, as shown, and then suspend the same from the nail or other device 7 by means of the loop 8.
This device is simple in construction and operation, and is perfectly adapted to accomplish the result for which it is intended, and is also comparatively inexpensive.
Having fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. In a support for picture-frames an adjusting device consisting of telescopic arms each of which is provided at one end thereof with an angular extension which is provided with a ring, andthe angular extension of one arm being longer than the angular extension outwardly directed arms, which are provided at their upper ends with hooks or eyes, and the lower part being longitudinally adjustable, and being connected with the upper part, and the lower end thereof, bein g adapted to be connected with the lower end of the frame, the upwardly and outwardly directed arms of the upper part being adapted to be connected with the upper end of the frame, said lower part, consisting of two rods, the lower rod being provided at its upper end with an eye or ring, through which the upper rod passes, and the upper rod being pro-
