FREDERICK IV. DRESSEL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
HAND-LANTERN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 644,735, dated March 6, 1906. Application filed February 4, 1899. Serial No. 704,498. (No model.)
To an whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK W. DRES- sEL, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hand-Lanterns, of which the following is a specification.
Myinvention relates especially to the construction of hand-lanterns, particularly such as are employed upon railroads, and has for its object the provision of a very light, strong, and effective lantern.
To attain the desired end, my invention consists, essentially, in certain novel and useful combinations and arrangements of parts and peculiarities of construction, all of which will be hereinafter first fully described and then pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a completed hand-lantern embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of one of the sheet-metal blanks out ready for forming into one of the vertical guard pieces or ribs. Fig. 3 is a front view of one of the vertical guard pieces or ribs when the horizontal ring-receptacles thereon are formed into shape, and Fig. 4 is a rear elevation of the same when the vertical rib is completely formed and bent into shape. Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 6 is a vertical sectional view of the cup out of which the ring for retaining the oil-pot in the body of the lantern is formed in one of its stages of formation. Fig. 7 shows the horizontal flange of Fig. 6 as partly bent into shape. Fig. Sis a plan view of the cup shown as having a series of parts of the horizontal flange cut away for the reception of the vertical guard-ribs. Fig. 9 shows the flange as bent over the horizontal ring of the guard to which the said ring is to be secured.
Like numerals of reference wherever they occur indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
1 is a blank, of thin sheet-steel or equivalent material, having notches 2 formed therein at intervals, leaving a narrow section 3 of the blank. In shaping up this blank to form one of the vertical guard-ribs the sections 3 are bent with the edges outward until they substantially touch each other, forming tubes at, as fully illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4, and then the portions of the blank between the said sections are formed into tubes at right angles to the tubes 3 by bending the edges of the metal inward, after which the vertical ribs are bent to the shape illustrated in Fig. 5.
3, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are metallic rings constituting the horizontal ribs of the guard, such rings passing through the horizontal tubes 4:, which are closed around them. The top 11 of the lantern is hinged and connected to the ring 10 of the guard in any approved manner.
In forming the bottom ring 12 of the lantern, arranged to receive the oil-pot, a circular sheet metal blank is first stamped or drawn, as illustrated in Fig. (3 of the drawings, after which the flange 14 is drawn to the shape illustrated in Fig. 7 and notched, as at 15, Fig. 8. The bottom of the cup, of which the ring 12 is a part, is cut out and a strengthening-seam 16 is formed at the lower edge. The ring 12 is then placed in the guard-ring 7 and the flange 14: bent around and beneath the ring 7, firmly fixing the ring 12 in place.
After all the parts are assembled the guard and ring 12 are tinned, eflectually fixing and uniting the parts together, providing a very light, strong, durable, and effective lanternframe.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim as new therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a lantern-guard, a vertical, curved, tubular rib having horizontal tubular holding-pieces formed integral therewith, for engaging the horizontal ribs or rings of the guard, substantially as shown and described.
2. In a lantern-guard, a vertical tubular rib, having engaging tubes for the horizontal guard-rings formed integral with the vertical portion of the rib, and projecting at right angles thereto, substantially as shown and de scribed.
3. A lantern-guard in which are comprised curved, tubular vertical ribs, in combination with solid horizontal rings or ribs, substantially as shown and described.
4. A lantern-guard, in which are comprised tubular vertical ribs having short horizontal tubes formed therewith and projecting at right angles, in combination with solid hori zontal rings passing through the tubular projections from the vertical ribs, substantially as shown and described.
5. A lantern-guard, in which are comprised a series of curved tubular vertical ribs provided with horizontal projecting tubular sections, in combination with a series of horizontal guard-rings passing through and held in place Within the horizontal portions of the vertical ribs, substantially as shown and described.
6. In a lantern-guard, a vertical, curved, tubular rib formed from astrip of sheet metal having the edges of the vertical portion bent inward, horizontal tubular sections being formed by bending portions of the body of the metal inward, but in the opposite direction, to the bending of the vertical ribs, substantially as shown and described.
7. In a lantern of the character herein specified, the combination with one of the horizontal rings of the guard, of a sheet-metal ring for holding the oil-pot, said ring being held in place by turning the upper edge thereof back upon itself, and over the guard-ring, substantially as shown and described.
8. In a lantern, a ring for holding the oilpot, formed of sheet metal having its upper edge turned back upon the body of the ring, and over one of the horizontal rings of the lantern-guard, substantially as shown and described.
Signed by me at New York, N. Y., this 16th day of December, 1898.
FREDERICK W. DRESSEL.
