WILLIAM L. CHRYSLER AND JOSEPH W. KAYS, OF EUGENE, OREGON.
HOLDER FOR OIL-CANS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 17, 1907.
Application filed December 8, 1906- Serial No. 346,948.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, WILLIAM L. OnnYsLEn and Jossrn W. KAYs, citizens of the United States, residing at Eugene, in the county of Lane and State of Oregon', have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Holders for Oil-Cans, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object to provide a novel support for receiving an oil can and prevent jolting or moving about of the same and wearing out the bottom as well as to prevent. loosening of the spout and to insure having the oil can at hand when required.
The invention contemplates a base of peculiar formation and a spring actuated clamp pivoted thereto and adapted to retain the oil can in proper position when applied to the base.
For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accom panyiug drawings.
While the invention may be adapted to different forms and conditions by changes in the structure and minor details without departing from the spirit or essential features thereof, still the preferred embodiment is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a side view of an oil can holder embodying the invention, the dotted lines showing the position of the clamp when thrown upward to admit of either removing the oil can or placing said can in position. Fig. 2 is a rear view of the device. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the oil can holder, the oil can being omitted.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The support, or holder, comprises a base 1 and a clamp 2, the latter being pivoted at 3 to the base and acted upon by means of a spring 4 which causes the free end of the clamp to normally exert a pressure upon the oil can 5 to retain the same in proper position.
The base 1 is of cup form and is provided with outwardly extended lugs 6 which are apertured to receive fastenings 7 by means of which the holder is secured to a suitable support such as a shelf, ledge, or any convenient part of a machine. The base may be of any depth and circumference depending upon the size of the oil can to be retained in place thereby. Ears 8 project from the upper rear portion of the base and are spaced apart a distance to receive the clamp 2, the fastening 3 serving to connect the ears and to form a pivot support for the clamp 2.
The clamp 2 is in the nature of a fork and is curved throughout its length and comprises tines and a shank, the latter being received between the ears 8.
In the preferable construction of the clamp, the same is formed of complemental curved members which are spaced apart for-the major part of their length and which have end portions brought together to form the shank. By having the clamp constructed as indicated, the tines exert a gentle clamping action upon opposite sides of the spout of the oil can, whereas their end portions curve and overhang the end of the can so as to prevent possible displacement thereof. The spring 4 is of the coil type and is attached at one end to the clamp and at its opposite end to the base and normally exerts a pulling force upon the clamp to draw it towards the base and secure the oil can. 7
A holder constructed substantially as herein set forth may be cheaply manufactured and in operation insures the oil can always being at hand and prevents jostling or moving about of the same which wears the bottom and causes the can to leak. When it is required to place the oil can in position, or'to remove it from the holder, the clamp 2 is thrown forward as indicated by the dotted linesin Fig. 1 and when the can is in place, the clamp 2 occupies the position shown by full lines in Fig. 1 and pressing upon the outer flange of the coupling end prevents loosening of the spout as will be readily understood.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
'lhe herein described oil can holder comprising a base of cup form having outwardly extended lugs apertured to receive fastenings and provided at its upper end with 01f standing spaced ears, a clamp comprising complemental members which are curved throughout their length and spaced apart to receive between them the spout of the oil can and which have corresponding end portions brought together to form a shank which is placed between the said cars, a fastening passed through corresponding openings of the ears and shank members of the clamp and a coil spring connecting the clamp with the base.
In testimony whereof we afiix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
