Candlestick.
No. 82,000. Patented Sept. 8, 1868.
WILLIAM H. 11. Hints, on enoron, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMVPROVE'MENTIIN CANDLESTlQKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 182,000, dated September 8, 1868.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAMH. H. HINDS, of Groton, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and Improved Adjustable Candlestick; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 is a front side view'of my adjustable candlestick, with the reflector, globe, and
wick-snuffers attached, and the upper or sliding part of the candlestick slid down to the lowest position the whole to be made of suitable materials and any desirable size.
a represents the cap, with a hole in the top of said cap, of a Suitable size to permit the candle to burn freely, and at the same time prevent it from pushingup through said cap too fast.
Said cap holds the candle or lamp, as the case may be, down upon the cup (12, (shown in Fig. 8,) which said cup is supported by the spring j. (Shown in Figs. 8 and 9.) Said cap is Lrgest at the bottom, so that any tallow or other waste matter that may drop from the said cap shall fall outside thelower part of the candlestick, lettered h. Said cap is held in position by means of the support we shown in Fig. 3. One or more Supports may be used, and of any desirable form, provided sufficient room is left for the air to circulate freely between the supports and the candle.
b is the globe or chimney, and rests on the collar (1. Z is the flame. c is a short cylinder, which supports the blades of the snuifers,and around which the collar moves that operates said snufl'er-blades; also, as before stated, it supports the globe or chimney. Said cylinder is held in position by means of the supports t, (shown in Fig. 3,) or by means of other device.
d is a collar or band, passing around the cylinder 0, or far enough around to connect with the lower end of each of the blades to the snuffers ff, through which said collar or band, on each side of the lower end of each of said blades, passes, as shown in Fig. 4.. e is a reflector, and is attached to the dripping dish or receptacle 9 by means of the socket B, as shown in Fig. 3. By means of the reflector 6 being attached to the upper or sliding part of the candlestick, it will be at a uniform distance from an angle to the light 1, Whatever height the-said flame l maybe at.
f f are the snuffers, made of two pieces of metal or wire, of suitable size, and bent and flattened at the top, so as to encircle the wick;
also, made thin, so as to cut-the wickwhen brought together.
I Each said wire is attached to the cylinder 0 by means of the staples o v v '0,
(shown in Fig. 4,) or attached-by means of other device, the lower ends of said Snuflers being attached to the movable collar d, by means of which collar the said snuflers are opened and closed. To-use the said snuflers for snuffing the wick, raise the cylinder cup tillthe snufl'ers are at the required height; then revolve the collar d from right to'left, or left to right, as the case may be, and the wick will be out to the required length. By means of said snuffers the flame Z may be snuffed without removing the globe b.
g is the receptacle or dripping-dish for waste tallow and-other matter that may drop down. Said receptacle 9 is attached to the sleeve h. h is a sleeve or slide, which fits onto the lower part of the candlestick, lettered k. Bymeaus of the sleeve or slide h, the candlestick may be made long or short, to Suit convenience. i i are slits in the cylinder 0 for the pin 1" (shown in Fig. 3) to slide into, to keep the said cylinder from revolving or moving when using the snuffers. his the lower part of the candlestick, as shown in Fig. 6. m is the bottom.
Fig. 2 is a side view of the nurse-lamp attachment, with a dish in position for heating liquids, the upper part of the frame, on which the dish rests, being made tunnel form, with a hole in the bottom to admit the heat. a is the dish; .9 s, the nurse-lamp attachment.-
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectionalview through the center of the upper or sliding part of my adjustable candlestick. the candle or lamp down in position. a is the support or Supports of the cap a, and is attached at the bottom to the sleeve h. his the sleeve or slide, which fits on the lower part of the candlestick h, as shown in Figs. 1 and 6. t is the support of the cylinder 0.

Fig. 7 is a side view of the reflectorand its support.
Fig. 8 is a transverse sectionalview through the center of the cup and upper part of the spring jthatsupports the candle or lamp. (9; is the cup. j is the spring.
Fig. 9 is a transverse sectional View through the center of the thumb-piece, and a portion of the bottom part of the spring j, which supports the candle or lamp. By means of said thumb-piece z, the said spring j may be raised up from the bottom and brought to any required stiflnes's.
By the foregoing device. I have an adjustable candlestick, which may be used as a canas a nurse-lamp, or which, by means of. the globe or chimney, may be used as a lamp; also, by means of the slide or sleeve h, it may be made long or short, to suit the kind of candle used; also, by means of the thumb-piece and slit, with notches-in the side, large or hard candles may be used; also, by means of the lamp, oil or fluid can be used equally as well as candles; also, by means oi the snuflers, the wick may be trimmed equally as well without *removin g the globe; also, by means of attaching the reflector and nurse-lamp attachment to the said reflector and nurse-lamp attachment will always be at the same distance from the flame, whatever the height of the candlestick.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The cap a, with its support or supports n, for the purposes set forth, and substantially as herein described, and as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
2.: The receptacle 9 and the slide or sleeve h, with the catch 1;, for the purposes set forth, and substantially as herein described, and shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
