PATENT OEEICE.
' SUPPORT OR GLOBES OR CHIMNEYS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 787,799, dated April 18, 1905. Application tied January 19,1905. serial Na. 241,796.
To all wil/0m, it may concern:
Be it known that I, IsADoRE L. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at San Francisco, in the county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Supports for Globes or Chimneys, or' which the following is a specification. Y
My invention relates to supports for gasglobes, lamp-chimneys, and the like; and my object is to provide su'ch a support in which the usual independently-adjustable screws are done away with. These are a source of much annoyance-first, because several of them are required to hold vthe globe or chimney, and as they all bear directly upon such globe or chimney they must be independently unscrewed in order to remove a globe and independently screwed into position when such globe or another is replaced. Further, if the screws should rust in their threaded bearings it is very diliicult to'turn them, and this is a common experience with housekeepers.
An embodiment of my invention by means of which these disadvantages are obviated is shown in the accompanying drawings.
Figure l is a perspective view of my support. Fig. 2 is a top plan view. Fig. 3 is a cross-section showing a gas-globe in position.
The support or gallery is formed from sheet metal and is substantially of the usual shape and form. It has a ledge l, upon which the base of the globe or chimney rests, and a circular rim or guard 2. Formed with the structure are lugs 3, bent inwardly, as shown in Fig. 2, so as to take over the base of the globe. In ordinary use and for globes of ordinary size two of such stationary lugs will be sufficient.
Formed with the support is the usual central s'pider, having a hole 4 to admit the burner and arms, as 5 5, extending to the ledgel.
Ordinarily 'three of such arms are used; butl in the present case one of them is cut off, as shown at 6. This short arm is formed into a catch or lock for the purpose hereinafter set forth, and in the illustration shown its end l piece l2, by means of which it can be swung' on its pivot.
In Fig. l the part 8 is shown as swung sidewise, so that the lug l1 is thrown out beyond the plane of the rim. In this position the globe can be set in place. Then the movable piece is swung in so as to engage with and lit the cut arm of the spider, and so complete the spider. This brings the loose lug into position over the base of the globe and locks everything in place.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. In a support for gas-globes, Sac., a gallery having fixed lugs, and spider-arms intersecting the gallery; one of said arms being formed in two parts of which one is pivoted to the gallery and is provided with a lug, while the fixed part of said arm is provided with means for receiving the free end of the pivoted part, whereby said arm is completed.
2. -In a support for gas-globes, &c., a gallery having fixed lugs and spider-arms; one of said arms extending only part way toward the gallery and having an opening or recess, an arm pivoted to the gallery and having a lug adapted to coincide with the gallery or to be swung out of line with it; the inwardlyextending free end'being adapted for connection and disconnection relatively to the opening or recess in theshort spider-arm.
In testimony whereof I have allxed my sigi nature in presence of two witnesses.
