EXTINGUISFEB.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 1 1, 1909.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JEREMIAH I). lVHrrE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful improvements in lllxtinguishers, of which the following is a specification.
Ely invention relates to a new and useful improvement in extinguishers, and has for its object to provide an exceedingly simple and effective device of this character whereby the flame of a candle or other light may be readily extinguished.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a device of this character in which the wick of the candle will not be bent over when the flame is being extinguished, and one in which the grease from the candle will be caught and retained thus preventing said grease from falling upon floors, furniture or the candelabra.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a cap which will catch the grease and which may be removed for cleaning, and to provide an extinguisher which may be used with the handles now in use or with one of special construct-ion.
Vith these ends in view, this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claims.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, I will describe its construction in detail, referring by letter to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of an extinguisher made in accordance with my improvement, a portion of the handle being broken away. Fig. 2, a longitudinal sectional view thereof, part of the handle being.
shown in elevation. Fig. 3, a section at the line X-X of Fig. 2 looking downward. Fig. 4, a plan view of the extinguisher. Fig. 5, a side elevation of the extinguisher, a portion of the extinguisher bell being shown in section for readily showing how it may be attached to the handle Fig. 6, a longitudinal sectional view of a portion of the taper holder showing the spring taper adjuster in elevation.
In carrying out my invention as here embodied, A represents the extinguisher bell generally used, and l which is formed conical shape having the bulge B in proximity to its upper end for forming a chamber into which will enter the wick C of the candle D. In the top of the extinguisher bell are form d the internal threads I) with which engage the threads F of the cap G, and when this cap is in position and the extinguisher is placed over a candle there will be no circulation, which will at once snuff the flame of the candle.
H denotes a detachable flange the outer edge of which is bent over to form the bead I in which are formed the notches J adapted to engage with the projections K formed on the lower edge of the extinguisher hell A. To the extinguisher bell A is secured the metal handle L which is formed of tubing so that the wooden handle M may be placed in the end thereof in order that lights at considerable heightmay be reached. On this handle I1 is mounted the taper holder ii the upper end of which is curved upward as indicated at 0 so that it will be carried away from the top of the extinguisher bell, thus preventing any interference therewith. In the taper holder is formed the slot P through which extends the stem Q, of the button It, said stem being secured to the end of the coil spring S which is so bent that the end to which the stem is secured normally rests against the side of the taper holder in which the slot is formed, and the friction produced between said spring and the side of the ta )er holder. will keep the spring from moving until the button R is pressed down by the thumb, at which time the spring may be readily moved along, and
when moved upward it will force the taper.
out of the upper end of the taper holder N. If found desirable the stem Q. may be formed of a portion of the spring S.
In Fig. 5 I have shown the extinguisher bell secured to the handle ordinarily used in which. the curved arm T has the threaded enlarged portion II on which is threaded the extinguisher bell A, it being understood that the cap G is first removed and the handle L is not secured thereto as it is unnecessary when being used with the ordinary handle as shown in Fig. 5.
In practice the extinguisher is placed over a candle and broughtdownward thereon until the upper end of the candle rests against the sides of the extinguisher bell A at which time there will positively be no draft or circulation in the bell which will at once cause the flame of the candle to be extinguished, and that grease which will ad- I tore to the lnner surface of the extinguisher bell will run down the sides thereof then 5 into the flange H which will hold the grease, preventing it from dropping upon the person using the extinguisher, the furniture or 1; other ObJQCi hen the extinguisher 1s beguisher bell for bending the wick C over i until it comes in contact with the wax, in
this way the wick of the candle will always be approximately in a vertical position when it is to be again lighted.
Of course I do not wish to be limited to the exact details of construction here shown as these may be varied within certain limits of the appended claims without departiir from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention, what claim as new and useful, is
l. a new article of manufacture. an extinguisher consisting of an extinguisher bell conical in shape provided with a bulged por tion in proximity to its upper end, said bulged portion being so formed that the lower entrance thereto is smaller than the ('il't'ilill'fGl'Ql'lCt of the candles on which it is to be used, a detachable flange, and a handle, as and for the purpose set forth.
2. As a new article of manufacture, an extinguisher consisting of an extinguisher bell whi h conical in shape, having a bulged per on in proximity to its upper end, internal thr ads formed on the upper end of said extinguisher hell, a cap threaded into the upper end. a detachable flange secured to the lower end of the bell, and a handle aitac to the bell, as specified.
3. in an extinguisher, a conical shaped extinguisher bell provided with a bulged portion in proximity to its upped end, said bulged portion being so formed that the lower entrance thereto is smaller than the circumference of the candles on which it is to be used, threads formed on the inside surface of the upper end of said extinguisher bell, projections formed in the lower end of the extinguisher bell, a detachable flange adapted to be secured to the lower end of the ex tinguisher bell by means of said projections, and a handle, as and for the purpose set forth.
4-,. in an extinguisher, a conical shaped extinguisher hell pro.*ide(l with a bulged portion in proximity to its upper end, said bulged portion being so formed that the lm, entrance thereto is smaller than the circun .erence of the candles on which it is to he used, threads formed on the inside surface of the upper end of said extinguisher I bell. projections formed in the lower end of the extinguisher bell, a detachable flange having a bead formed on the outer edge thereof provided with notches, said notches adapted to engage with the projections foruicd on the lower end of the extinguisher hell, a handle. and a taper holder mounted on said handle. as shown and for the purpo e set forth.
In an extinguisher, a conical shaped extinguisher bell provided with a bulged portion in proximity to its upper end, threads formed on the inside surface of the upper end of said extinguisher bell, projections formed in the lower end of the extinguisher hell. a detachable flange having a bead formed on the outer edge thereof provided with notches, said notches adapted to engage with the projections formed on the lower end of the extinguisher bell, a handle, a taper holder mounted on said handle, said taper holder provided with a slot, a spring mounted within the taper holder so bent as to bind against the sides of said holder, a stem extending through the slot in the taper holder, and a button secured to said stem.
6. The herein described combination of an extin uisher hell having a bulged portion in proximity to its upper end, said bulged por tion being so formed that the lower entrance thereto is smaller than the circumference of the candles on which it is to be used, a detachable flange, and means for securing it to the lower end of the extinguisher bell, and a handle. as described.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses:
