STAND FOR UMBRELLAS, CANES, OR SIMILAR ARTICLES.
1 SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 687,902, dated December 3, 1901.
Application filed May 6, 1901. Serial No. 58,877. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HERMANN Aueus'r EMIL RossMANN, a citizen of the German Empire, and a resident of Hamburg, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in or Relating to Stands for Umbrellas, Canes, or the Like, of which the followingis a specification.
The present invention relates to a stand for umbrellas, canes, and similar articles which is particularly designed for show-windows or the like and which is so constructed that it allows an easy insertion and removal of the article held even from a remote point when it is not possible, for instance, to reach it with the hand.
In the accompanying drawings is shown a stand according to the present invention.
Figure 1 is a front view, and Fig. 2 is a plan View.
A cub b, rigidly connected with the foot or of the stand, serves as a support for the tip of the umbrella, cane, or the like 0. On radially-arranged lugs or ribs e of the cup I) are pivoted arms d, the lower ends of which are pressed outwardly by springs f. The upper arms serve as bearings for rollers g, over which are angle-shaped projections h of the arms cl, and which rollers, in connection with the obliquely upwardly extending parts h, form a funnel-shaped entrance for the end of the umbrella or cane. Under the pressure of the springsfthe upper ends of the arms 01 approach each other, so that they touch each other when the stand is out of use. If an umbrella, cane, or the like is introduced, the funnel-shaped entrance is widened through the pressure of the cane sliding between the parts it until the tip reaches the rollers g. The latter forming a smaller circle than the inner points of the parts h, the arms (2 will consequently be forced outwardly until the cane c is received between the radially-arranged rollers g. The cane then slides down, guided by the rollers g, and finally comes into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1. In consequence of the smooth surface of the rollers g 110 damages to the cane or umbrella polish can take place. The caneferrule is received in the cup 19, and the cane c is maintained in position above its supporting-point by the arms d under the influence of the springsf.
In the construction shown in the drawings fiat springs f are used, which are secured between the footpiece a and the cup b. Instead of fiat springs any other type of spring could of course be used, just as the method 1 of securing could be accomplished in other convenient manner as long as an equal pressure of the upwardly-extending arms is effected.
Instead of three arms 01, as shown in the drawings, several arms could be employed, and an arbitrary number of stands could be arranged upon one common base-plate. The
method of securing the arms cl can be varied by movably securing the arms at their lower ends to the footpiece a or to the cup I), in which case draft-springs above the pivotal point would be used, or it is also possible to use arms which are flexible in themselves.
What I claim is A stand for umbrellas and canes, composed of a cup, a series of spring-influenced. arms having outwardly-inclined upper ends, and rollers pivoted to the arms below such inclined upper ends, substantially as specified.
Signed by me at Hamburg, Germany, this 17th day of April, 1901.
