ISABEL HARPER HOLMES, OF TORONTO, CANADA UMBRELLA-HOLDER.
sPEciFIcATIoN forming part of'Leners :Patent No. 634,526, dated cacher 1o, 1899.
i `Application filed May '2, 189B. Serial No; 679.467,. (No nioflelJ` T0 @ZZ wir/0m, it may concern:
Beit known that I, ISABEL HARPER HOLMES, gentlewoman, of the city ot- Toronto, in the county of York, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Umbrella-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in umbrella-holders; and the object of the invention is to design a simple, eiiicient, and
handsome holder for umbrellas which when not in use will automatically recede fromV its projecting position when in use; and it consists, essentially, of -a holding lever plate provided, preferably, with two jaws pivotally held on a suitable bracket, the shorter end of the lever having connected to it bya suitable chain or cord a weight designed to normally hold the jaws out of the way, as hereinattei` more particularly explained. A
Figure l is a perspectiveview of anumbrella-holder designed to be pivotallyy held in its closed position under a ledge to a counter or other suitable constructional portion of an apartment, hall, or shop. Fig. 2 isa view showing the adaptability., of .my umbrella- .holder when applied to the side 0E a counter.
Fig. 8 is a det-ail showing the bracket and holding-jaws, the plate forming part Voi'V the jaws being broken away to exhibit the' construction of the bracket and they position thereof when adapted as shown in Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a detail of my umbrella-holder, showing the plate of the jaw broken away to exhibit the construction and position of the bracket when adapted as shown in Fig. 2.' Fig. 5 is a detail of the plate and jaws-forming` part thereof. 1 f
In the drawings like letters andn urnerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
Y A is the counter, and Ba broad overhanging ledge. In Figs. l, 3, and 5, C is a plate provided with the curvulate fingers c, c, and c2. The curvulate'iingers c and c' form the jaws of a recess of substantially the same width throughout. The finger c is curved to form a flaring opening with `the'inger c and is stampedwith the recess c3, so as to cause it to assume a semicircular form in cross-sec-` tion', .and thereby give it aV resilientpreperty. The linger c? together with the finger c'form jaws with a contracted entrance, the width between the jaws being substantially equal throughout. The width between the fingers c' andV cgis, however, much less than the width between the lingers c and c', as such is intended to receive much smaller umbrellas than that of the latter space. In fact it is more adapted to receive a ladys umbrella than a gentlemans. 1
The entrance to the space between the jaws is contracted, and consequently when the umbrella is forced in through the entrance in either case the linger c springs back to allow of the entrance of the handle of the umbrella and yet will not permit of the umbrella falling out again, but will permit of it being forced out by a slight pressure.
It will be noticed that the rear end of the jaw-plate O is provided with a circular opening C2, having diametrically-situated notches C3, substantially parallel with the ends of the fingers c and c. It will also be noticed that at one side of the portion C' of the plate O is formed a depressed eye-lug C4. j D is an angular bracket, one angular end of which is provided with'the central hole 0l, araised stamped-up boss d surrounding the same, and a-raised stamped-up boss cl2 con centric to the boss'cl. Y
cl3 is an eye formed or stamped out at the p as to form anV end. bar d4.
It'will be seen that the circular opening C2 fits around the circular boss d of the bracket D and that the edge of the plate around the opening rests upon the circular boss d2 above the level'of the' remaining portion of this side of thebracket. Y
- I provide va screw 2 to secure the bracket in position underneath the ledge, and it will therefore. be seen that when secured the boss d forms the pivot-point upon which the jawplate turns. On the lug C4 isconnected, pref- `lug C4 through the guiding-eye cl3 at the outer angle of the bracket and the hole d5 in IOO Y as indicated in this iigure, it is simplynec'essary to pull out the linger c2 of the jaw-plateY C until the plate assumes the position shown Y in full lines in Fig. 2, when the umbrella mayV 15V be inserted between the lingers of either jaw. It inserted between the lingers c and c', the finger c2 of the other jaw may be utilized to Vhang aparcel on or the other jaw'itself may be used to receive another umbrella. The weight and positionoiihe umbrella ofcourse causes sufficient friction to prevent the jawplate from assuming its normal position under the ledge; but immediatelyY the umbrella is removed the eye-lug C4 is pulled upon by the Weight, so as to swing the jaw-plate back into the normal position shown in dotted lines.
The above is theY position which I preferably provide for my holder when the ledge is sui'licientlyrbroad Yto accommodate theY width of the jaw-plate underneath the same. VIn case where the ledge B is of a lesser width, as shown in Fig.Y 2, I support the jaw-plate upon the opposite end of the bracket, as shown Y in this figure, Vin which 'ligure it will be noticed that the notches 03.011 the sides of the opening tit the sides of the bracket closely and the plate at the side ci'Y the notches rests upon the laterally-exten ding end bar d,whieh therefore forms the pivot-point for the jawplate. The bracket itself to the inside of the end bar d4 forms a stop for the inner end of the plate, so that the j aw-plate will not come down below. the horizontal. The bracket is secured in position to the side counter or wall by avscrew 2. The weight is suspended .by means of the cord f from the center of the back of the jaw-plate-that is, at the rear of Athe circular opening C2. The normal tendency of the weight F is to throw the jawplate, which is really a lever of exactly the same class as before described in Fig. l, into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, which position is the normal position. When thrown down into the position as shown in full lines in this gure, the weight of the parasol or umbrella is sufficient to counterbalance the weight F, and thereby hold the uinbrella from falling. Assoon as the umbrella is removed from the jaws of course the jawplate will assume the position shown in Fig. 2. It will be noticed from this speciiication how simply and effectually I have provided a bracket and a jaw to be used in connection therewith, which may be adaptable eitherto an 'overhanging ledge or to the side of a wallY or counteryand this, too, without the necessity oi providing any eXtra portions. All the parts may be stamped out of sheet metal of sufficient thickness, and all it is necessary to do to place the umbrella-holder inthe requis site position is to change the position of rthe bracket inrelation to the jawplate.
y What I claim as'my invention isl. An umbrella-holder comprising a bracket adapted to be secured to.y either a `vertical or horizontal support, a plate having springarms arranged to engage an umbrella or theV 1ike,said plate being detachably hinged to Y said bracketV means'whereby said plate can swing eitherhorizont-ally or vertically, and a plate, suhend, the extreme Yend'of which forms'a crossbar extending underneath the plate beyond the edge of Ythe notches asand for the purpose specified.
8. In an umbrelia-holder, the combination Ywith'the jaw-plateY circular opening at Ythe rearend thereof provided with diametricallysituated notches and the weight connected bya chain to the rear end of the jaw-plate', of
the angle-bracket designed to fit' into the notches and provided with an angled outer Y end, the extreme end of which forms a crossbar extending underneath the plate beyond the edge of the notches and the circular bossshaped opposite end of the bracket provided with the central hole and screw to secure such end in position as and for the purpose specified.
4t. In an umbrella-holder, t-he combination with the jaw-plate provided with a circular opening and laterally-extending eye-lug, of the bracket provided with circular bosses upon which the circular opening at the rear end of the jaw is designed to swing, a circular hole and screw extending through such hole into the counter to hold the bracket in position, an eye formed in the bracket, a chain connected to the eye-lug and extending through the eye and through a hole in the end of the bracket and a weight suitably connected to the end of the chain as and for the purpose specified.
