I FLAG STAFF-BRACKET.
' srEor ErcA Tron forming part of Letters Patent 'No. 655,951, dated August 14, 1906.
b v Application filed January 24:, 1900. Serial No. 21635. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, EUGENE D. BATES, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Flagstafi-Brackets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in brackets for holding flagstaffs, &c.; and the objects of 'my invention are, first, to furnish a bracket for this purpose which will receive and tightly hold staffs of widely-varyin g diameters, and, second, to furnish an improved means whereby the staff may be quickly and positively locked to the bracket and as quickly released. 7
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a perspective View of my improved bracket, showing the lower end of a flagstaff engaged thereby; and Fig. 2, a section through the movable keeper, showing the swivel attachment of the operating screw therewith.
My bracket a is furnished with a foot I), which may be secured by screws or otherwise to any suitable supporta window-sill, for instance. v
0 cl are V-shaped rests, the former at the outer and the latter at the inner end of the bracket.
e is an open standard situated about midway between rests c d and preferably pivoted at its bottom to the bracket a, through which the staff passes. This standard carries a vertically-movable keeper f, which is furnished with slots g, through which the sides of standard 6 pass.
his a screw passing through top of standard and preferably connected with keeper f by means of a swivel, as shown in Fig.2, by means of which the keeper may be forced down against the top of the staff, the lower side of which rests in the V-shaped rests c d.
'i is a cleat forming part of the casting of bracket (1, upon which the flag-halyards may be secured and which takes the place of the separate cleat usually employed for this pur pose.
I A bracket of this construction will receive and hold staffs of widely-varying diameters, the smaller sizes of brackets taking staffs of from one-half an inch to two and one-half inches in diameter, the diameter of staff that the device will carry being principally limited by the size of opening in standard 6 and to a minor extent by the size of the rests 0 cl. It will be seen that the rests 0 cl and the standard 6 may be made of any size desired, each size being capable of receiving staffs of widely varying diameter.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- 1.- In a flagstaff-bracket, in combination, V-shaped rests, formed integrally with the bracket, for supporting the under side of the staff, a standard, placed between the rests and pivoted at its lower end to the bracket,through which the staff passes, and a screw carried by the upper end of said standard adapted to engage the top of said staff.
2. In a flagstaff-bracket, in combination, V-shaped rests, formed integrally with the bracket, for supporting the under side of the staff, a standard, placed between the rests and pivoted at its lower end to the bracket,through which the staff passes, a vertically-movable keeper, the ends of which are guided by the sides of said standard, adapted to engage the top of the staff, and a screw passing through the top of said standard and adapted to force said keeper against the upper side of said staff.
3. In a flagstaif-bracket, in combination, rests adapted to engage the under side of thestaff, astandard placed between the rests and pivoted to the bracket at its lower end, a vertically-movable keeper, furnished at its ends with slots through which the sides of said standard pass, adapted to engage the upper side of the staff, and a screw passing through the upper end of said standard and swiveled to said keeper.
EUGENE D. BATES.
