CHARLES FORBES, OF ROCHESTER, NEIV YORK, ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO THE SANITARY COMMUNION OUTFIT COMPANY,
OF SAME PLACE.
CHALlCE-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 623,468, dated April 18, 1899.
Application filed March 27,1897. serial No. 629,497. No model) To all whom, it DMZ/y concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES FORBES, acitizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of Rochester, in the State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Chalice-I-Iolders,of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sanitary comm union outfits comprising individual cups or chalicesg and the present invention consists in an improved chalice-holder, of rack form,'in which a large number of chalices may be conveniently and safely carried in two or more tiers, the holder having a handle at top, by which to carry it, and peculiarly formed and operated covers for the chalices to eX- clude dust therefrom, before and after they are filled, until the moment when they are delivered to the communicants.
The invention further consists in certain novel combinations of parts embodied in such improved chalice-holder, as hereinafter described and claimed.
The primary object of the present invention is to combine a support for a tier of chalices with a cover fora tier beneath in one and the same part with reference to increased simplicity and compactness.
Another object is to provide for uncovering the several tiers successively, so that if some of the chalices are not required they may be left empty at the bottom of the rack or if filled maybe kept intact and dust-tight in order that the wine may be saved for future use.
Another object is to provide for uncovering the tiers of chalices successively by means of a single knob immediately beneath the handle of the rack.
Three sheets of drawings accompany this specification as part thereof.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a side elevation of an improved chalice-holder, illustrating this invention. Fig. 2 isa horizontal section on the line 2 2, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section in a central plane, drawn to a largerscale. Fig. 4 is an elevation of a modifled form of the same chalice-holder, and Fig. 5 is a horizontal section on the line 5 5, Fig. 4.
Like letters and numbers refer to like parts in all the figures.
The improved chalice-holders shown in the drawings are of common rack form, as above defined, and each comprises a base A, preferably provided with feet f, one or more combined supports and covers B, a top cover 0, a pair of posts D, rigidly fastened to the base A and projecting upward through the superposed supports and covers, a handle E, attached to the protruding upper ends of the posts D, and a central knob F' beneath the handle by which to manipulate the devices for raising and lowering said combined supports and covers and said top cover. In both arrangements also provision is made for uncoverin several tiers of chalices successively, beginning with those at the top, and bot-h chalice-holders are shown as they appear after one chalice support and cover 15 has been emptied and then elevated to expose the tier of chalices beneath. In both holders, moreover, the combined supports and covers 13 are provided with rigidly attached sleeves s, which embrace and slide upon the posts D to keep the supports level when elevated and to steady their movements.
In both of the holders alike and in other modifications of the improved chalice-holder either two or three tiers of chalices may be accommodated, the term tier being herein applied to the assemblage of chalices at a given height. To illustrate both arrangements, spaces to accommodate three tiers are shown in Figs. 1 and 3 and accommodations for two tiers in Fig. 4.
In any form the improved holder may also be either round-ended, as shown in Fig. 2, with the chalices extending completelyaround the holder in each tier, or square-ended,with the chalices in parallel ranks, as shown in Fig. 5.
Each of the improved holders may also be fitted to carry either of the two forms of chalices shown, respectively, at 1 in Figs. 1 and 3 and at 2 in Fig. 4 or any other form of indi-- vidnal communion-cup. Said chalice-holder shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 is provided for the reception of said chalices 1,with holes 7t, Figs.
2 and 3, in the base A and combined supports and covers D fitted to the bottoms of the small tumbler-shaped glasses which constitute said chalices 1. The peculiar device for raising and lowering the combined supports and covers B and the top cover O succes sively,which more particularly distinguishes this species, is rotary, the rod r, depending from its knob F, being swiveled in the rose 1" at the center of the top cover 0. To convert the rotation of said rod into vertical movements of said supports and covers B and top cover O, the lowermost of a pair of crosspieces 0c .11 carried by the rod '2' beneath the successive supports and covers 15, coacts with a spiral wire to, which is fixedly attached to the base A, as shown at .2, Fig. 8. One turn of this knob F, Figs. 1 and 3, elevates the top cover O relatively to the uppermost of the combined supports and covers B sufficiently to' permit the chalices on the latter to be readily removed and brings the cross-piece 00 into con tact with the bottom of the same. Another turn elevates the support and cover just emptied, together with the top cover, and brings the cross-piece x into contact with the bottom of the lower support and cover B, as in Figs. 1 and 3. One more turn elevates both of the supports and covers B with the top cover C, bringing the latter into contact with the ends of the handle E and exposing the chalices 0n the base A.
The modified holder, Figs. iand 5, is adapted to carrysaid chalices 2, of metal,with stem and base, by means of stud-pins p on the base A and support and cover B, fitted to holes in the bases and stems of said chalices 2, and its device for raising and lowering the sup ports and covers B and top cover O is constructed as follows: The rod 1' of the knob E is in this form non-rotary, being fast in the rose 9" on the top cover O, and is provided beneath the support and cover B, next above the base A, with a cross-piece or disk 00, having a pair of notches 3, Fig. 5, which coact with the ends 4 of a pair of tension-springs if, accommodated by slots 5 in said support and cover B when the latter is lowered and fixedly attached at their lower ends to the base A. A direct lift on the knob E in this arrangement first lifts the top cover 0 to expose the chalices immediately under it, (omitted in Figs. 4 and 5,) and another like lift elevates the combined support and cover B and exposes the chalices beneath, as in Fig. 4.
In both arrangements when the chalices are replaced in the holder after being cleansed or when they are filled those on the base A are first covered, then the next tier, and then the upper tier, if there be three, the top cover O being the last to close down upon the chalices immediately under it, and the top covers and the combined supports and covers are so lowered by movements of the knobs E the reverse of those by which the chalices are uncovered.
In addition to the variations above described other like modifications will suggest themselves to those skilled in the art.
Having thus described the said improvement, I claim as my invention and desire to patent under this specification- 1. In a chalice-holder havingspaces for two or more tiers of chalices, a cover for the chalices of each tier, and means for raising the series of covers successively, beginning with the top cover, substantially as hereinbefore specified.
2. In a chalice-holder of rack form having a handle at top and having spaces for two or more tiers of chalices, a cover for the chalices of each tier and means for raising the series of covers successively comprising a central knob immediately beneath said handle, substantially as hereinbefore specified.
3. In a chalice-holder of rack form having spaces for two or more tiers of chalices, a vertically movable cover for the chalices of each tier and a base beneath the lowermost tier,
the combination with a rotary knob above the top cover of a rod turned by said knob, swiveled in said cover, and having a lost-motion connection with the covers beneath, and a spiral fixedly attached to said base and coacting with a cross-piece carried by said rod, substantially as hereinbefore specified.
