PIPE-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 740,028, dated September 29, 1903.
Application filed January 12, 1903- Serial 110. 13 8.709. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it'known that I, WILLIAM EUGENE Lo- NEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boscobel, in the county of Grant and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful Pipe-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to animprovedstovepipe-holder, and has for its object to provide asimple, inexpensive, and efficient device of this character which is capable of effectively retaining the stovepipe within the thimble and preventing the pipe from projecting beyond the end of the thimble and obstructing the flue.
Theinvention consists in a pipe-holder comprising an expansible loop or collar adapted to embrace and firmly clamp the pipe within the thimble, the ring being provided with a pair of pipe-retaining arms having hooked end portions which engage the inner wall of theflue and form a stop, limiting the forward movement of the pipe.
The invention further consists in the construction and novelcombination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claimshereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a top plan View, partly in section, showing a section of stovepipe with myimproved holder applied thereto and illustrating the manner of securing the pipe and holder in the thimble. is a detail perspective view of the pipe-holder detached.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures of the draw- Ings.
1 designates the chimney-breast, 2 the thimble, and 3 the holder. The holder 3 consists of an expansible collar 4, which encircles the stovepipe 5, being preferably formed from a single piece of wire or other suitable material galvanized or otherwise coated to protect the same from rust. One end of the wire forming the collar 4 is bent outwardly. and upwardly to form a loop or eye 6 and the other end thereof bent to form a corresponding loop or eye 7, the end of the wire after the eye 7 is formed terminating in a loop 8, which embraces the collar 4 and forms a guide, hold- Fig. 2'
ing the'ends of the-collar in the proper alinement and permitting the free expansion and contraction thereof to accommodate pipes of varying sizes. A pin or bolt 9 passes throughthe loops or eyes 6 and 7, the ends of the collar 4 being drawn together and securely clamped on the pipe by a nut 10, the nut being held from rotative movement by engagement' with the wire.
Pivotally and slidably mounted on the collar 4 is a-pair of loosely-swinging pipe-retaining arms 11 and 12, one end of each of which is bent to form an eye 13, embracing the ring, and the other end thereof is formed with a T-shaped head 14, forming, in effect, a double hook, which bears against the inner wall of the flue and also extends in the path of the stovepipe, forming a stop and preventing the pipe from projecting. beyond the end of the thimble and obstructing the flue.
In operation, the thimble having first been placed in position, the arms 11 and 12 are passed through the thimble, with the collar '4 bearing against the face of the chimneybreast. The stovepipeis nowinserted through the collar and thence into or through the hole orthimble in the chimney-breast. The end of the pipe coming in contact with the pivoted arms forces them outwardly until they lie parallel with the thimble, which causes the outer portion of each T-shaped head to bear against the inner wall of the flue and the inner portion to extend inwardly in the path of the stovepipe, preventing the pipe from projecting beyond the end of the thimble and obstructing the fine. When in proper position, the pipe is tightly clamped within the collar 4 of the holder by passing the screwbolt 9 through the eyes or loop 6 and 7 and tightening the bolt with a screw-driver or other tool, causing the loop to closely embrace the pipe. To remove the pipe, the
screw-bolt is loosened, when it can be withdrawn and the holder also removed, if desired, by disengagingthe hooked ends from the wall of the flue or chimney.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent I have produced an inexpensive pipe-holder composed of few parts and which is capable of securely clamping the pipe within the chimney-breast and preventing the pipe from being pushed through the hole against the opposite Wall of the flue and shutting 0E the draft.
While I have shown the device as applied to astovepipe, it is obvious that it may also be used with equally good results in pipecouplings or pipe connections of any character, and various changes in form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is- 1. In a Stovepipe-holder, the combination of a collar member formed of a single piece of wire, one end of the Wire being slidably engaged with the other end thereof, means for adjustably securing said ends together, and means carried by said collar member adapted to engage the inner end of the stove pipe-section and the inner face of the chimney or flue, substantially as set forth.
2. In a Stovepipe-holder, the combination of a collar member, means carried by said collar member and adapted to engage the inner face of the chimney or flue, said collar member being formed from a single piece of wire provided with a loop at one end, the other end being adapted to pass through said loop and means for adjustably securing the two ends together, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM EUGENE LONEY.
