JACOB SILVERBERG, OF MCKEES ROCKS, PENNSYLVANIA.
SMOKE AND HEAT DEFLEGTOR FOR LIGHTS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, Moon SILVERBERG, a resident of McKees Rocks, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Smoke andHeat Deflectors for Lights; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
M invention relates to deflectors for the smo e and heat of lights, and has special reference to the application of the same to the flames from jets of gas, oil or other lights on chandeliers, brackets, lamps, etc.
The object of my invention is to provide a chea simple and efficient form of a deflector for t e smoke and heat from lights of gas, oil and other flames which can easily be a lied and ad'usted in place, so that the smo e rom the lig ts or carbon generated thereby will be distributed or deflected about the room or apartment in which the light and its deflector is used, and the smoke prevented from being collected in spots or places on the ceiling or wall directly over said lights, while at the same time the heated air will be deflected downward into the room or apartment' and the cold air deflected upward thereby.
My invention consists, generally stated, in the novel arrangement, construction and combination of parts, as hereinafter more particularly set forth and described and particularly ointed out in the claims.
To ena le others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to construct and use my im roved deflector for the smoke and heat of lig ts, I will describe the same more fully, referring to the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved deflector for the smoke and heat of lights showing the same applied to a chandelier or fixture for a gas light. Fig. 2 is an enlarged pers ective view of the same. Fig. 3 is a sectlonal elevation of the adjustable su porting means employed. Fig. 4 is an en arged cross-section of the tubular portion on the supporting means on the line 4-4, Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the clamping strap for carrying the supporting means. Fig. 6 is a like view of the plate for use on a wall to carry the supporting means.
Like symbols of reference herein indicate like parts in each of the figures of the drawing.
As illustrated in said drawing, 1 represents Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 423,893.
the vertical portion of a chandelier or fixture, which is shown in Fig. 1, and such portion is usually a pipe or tube of circular cross-section having the extensions 2 projecting out from the lower end of the same. These extensions 2 have the usual vertical burner 3 at each of the outer ends of the same, as shown in said figure, and from which the light is formed by the flame therefrom when lighted.
Connected to and extending out from the vertical portion 1 of the chandelier a is the deflecting device I) which is preferably formed of metal and comprises the deflector or fan 4, the supporting bar 5, and the attaching and detachable clam ing strap 6. The strap 6 is formed of thin flexible sheet metal and has a tongue 7 at one end for fitting in a hole or slot 8 at the opposite end, while within the body of said strap are a series of corru ations 9, which are adapted to form seats for the bar 5, as hereinafter described, when connected to vertical portion 1 of the chandelier The strap 6 is bent around the vertical portion 1 of the chandelier a and is slidably secured in place thereon by assing the tongue 7 on the same through the liole or slot 8 in said strap and bending the same down onto said strap, so that when the strap 6 is thus in place the corrugations 9 in said strap will form seats 10 around said vertical portion with the outer surface of said ortion.
The su porting bar 5 is formed of a horizontal tu ular portion 11, which is circular in cross-section and split longitudinally of the same, as shown at 12, for the purpose hereinafter described. Connected to one end of the tubular portion 11 is the L-shaped bar 13, which has one of its end portions 13 secured in said portion, preferably by soldering, and its opposite and pointed end 13 fits vertically down within one of the seats 10 formed by the clamping strap 6 and the vertical portion 1 on the chandelier a. At the other end of the tubular portion 11 is the L-shaped bar 14 which has one of its end portions 14 slidably fitting within said tubular portion and its other end 14 extending vertically over and in a proper position above the burner 25 for receiving the fan 4.
'l he fan 4 is of the well known propeller shape, and is preferably formed from a thin sheet of aluminum, such as 32 gage and with two blades 15, which extend out from a central portion 16 and are turned at an angle in opposite directions from each other. The fan 4 is loosely and slidably mounted on the vertical portion of the sliding bar 14 through a hole 17 in the central portion 16 on said fan, and a head 18 on said vertical portion supports said fan on said bar.
In the assembling and use of my improved deflector for the smoke and heat of lights the strap 6 is bent around the portion 1 of the chandelier a and clamped or secured in place thereon by passing the tongue 7 through the slot 8 in said strap and bending over said tongue, so that the said strap is thus slidably mounted on said portion and can be moved to the proper height on said portion for supporting the fan 4 and bar 5 of the deflecting device I). The bar 13 which is secured to the tubular portion 11 by one of its end portions 13 is hung on the strap 6 by its vertical end portion 13 fitting down in one of the seats 10 formed by the corrugations 9 on said strap engaging with the vertical portion 1 on the chandelier a, and the fan 4 is passed by its hole 17 in the central portion 16 over the sliding end portion 14 of the bar 14 and down onto the head 18 on the vertical portion 14 thereof. After this is accomplished the end portion 14 on the bar 14 is passed into the tubular portion 11 and adjusted to position by sliding the same therein so that the fan 4 can then be brought centrally to a position over the burner 3 on the chandelier a on which it is desired to operate through said sliding movement and y the swinging of the support 5 therefor on its vertical pivot or hinge 13 in the slot 10 on the strap 6. When the deflecting device I) is thus in position over the burner 3 and it is desired to operate the same, the said burner is lighted and the heat from the flame of the same will act to revolve the fan 1 on the vertical ortion 14 of the bar 14, thereby deflecting the smoke formed by said flame throughout the room or apartment in which it is used, and also deflecting the heated air in the upper part of said room or apartment downward and the cold air therein upward.
If desired, the deflecting device I) can be used over gas or lamp lights which are on wall brackets or placed adjacent to a wall, in which case, a wall plate 19 such as is shown in Fig. 6 and formed of thin sheet metal is secured to the wall by nails or screws passing through holes 20 in said plate and taking into said wall or other suitable support. This plate 19 has the loops 21 formed integral with the same by cutting the metal and bending out the same in any suitable manner, so as to form seats 22 for the insertion of and the holding of the vertical portion 13 on the bar 13 of the device I) therein to support said device and ermit the swinging of the same, as herein efore described.
Various other modifications and changes in the design, arrangement and construction of the various parts of my improved deflector for the smoke and heat of lights may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
It will thus be seen that my improved deflector for the smoke and heat of lights can be applied and adjusted to the proper position over the flame of a light, and when applied to a chandelier or fixture containing several burners, a single device can be used thereon and moved around the same for operation on any one of different burner lights, as desired, while it will also be seen that it can be adjusted for different lengths of burner extensions on the chandelier or fixture and for different positions of the light from a wall in the use of a bracket or lamp. The swinging movement of the device from a chandelier or fixture, bracket, wall or other support will enable it to be easily adjusted for different positions of the lights and by reason of the split tube employed for the sliding bar, such bar will be firmly held in the position in which it is placed, and will permit of its easy movement within said tube at all times.
The device contains few parts, which are easily manufactured, assembled, applied or removed, and they are not liable to get out of order or place when once set in position for operating. The parts being formed of metal will not be affected by the heat from the flame or light and can be assembled by any child or unskilled person.
When in use the device overcomes the formation of the unsightly spots of smoke usually formed on the ceilings above the lights and the air in the room or apartment is more evenly distributed thereby.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A deflector for the smoke and heat of a flame light comprising a support having a seat therein, a horizontally arranged telescopic bar composed of a tubular portion having a downwardly extending Vertical end portion, which is pivotally connected to said seat and a rod slidably mounted in said tubular portion having a downwardly extending vertical end portion, and a revoluble propeller fan mounted on the end portion of said rod and supported by a head on said portion for extending over and above the light, said fan being slidably removable along said rod when said rod is removed from said tubular portion.
