- FLAGSTAFF.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 15,1910.
Application. filed March 3, 1909. Serial No. 431.004.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that 1, Jason K. Moons, a citizen of the United States, residing at of Ca-lifornimliave invented certain new and useful li'nprovements in Flagstali's, of l which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This imention relates to flag statfs to be carried by the rear end of railroad trains and has for its object the provision of means for facilitating the attaching of a flag to a stajli' in case the flag should become torn or worn out.
Another object of this invention is the prmluction of a flag stathwvhieh is simple in construction, etiicient in operation and consists of a comparatively small number of parts.
\Vith these and other objects in view this invention consists of certain novel constructions, ctnnbiinitions. and arrangements of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of my invention as applied to the rear end of a car. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective flag statf. Fig. 3 is a sectional view-taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a rear view of the flag staff showing the relation of the Referring to the drawings by numerals -1' engaging lower end 2. The socket engagng lower end 2 15 adapted to fit in the socket thereby support the standard 1 thereon. The standard 1 is provided at its upper endwith a flattened portion .4 and near its lower end with a flattened portion 5. An aperture is formed in the flattened portion 5 and extends through the standard 1 and a pin is adapted to pass through said aperture and hingedly secure the clampingmember 6 hereinafter described to'the standard 1. In the flattened portion of the upper end of the standard 1 is formed an aperture 7 through whichis adapted to pass a pin-for securing theupper end of theclamping-member 6 in a locked position upon the standard 1, thereby securely fastening, or securing a flag upon the standard.
The clampingniember 6 is provided with I thereby hingedly secured to the standard 1.
The clamping-member 6 is also provided, at its upper end with apertured extended portions 9 constituting ars. A pin 10 is adapted'to pass through'thc apertures in the extended portions 9 and through the aperture 7 in the flattened portion u 1 )on the upper end of the standard 1, thereby clamping the clamping-member Gyn'pon the standard 1.
It will be obfvipus from the foregoing description tliatdhevfiag can be readily placed upon the standard 1, by swinging, the clamping-member 6 outwardly. As'soon as one of the ends of the fiag'is placed upon the standard 1, the clamping-member 6 can be thrown into engagement with the standard 1. The ea s 9 e gage the flattened portions 4 upon the upper end of the standard -1 and by placinga pin through the apertures in the ears 9 and through the aperture 7 in the upperend, the clamping-member will readily clamp the vfiag uponthe standard 1,
thereby securely fastening the flag upon the standard. It will also be obvious from the foregoing description that the flag can be readily removed from the standard'and a new flag placed thereon. It will also be obvious that by having the clampingmember 6 concave the same conforms to the shape of standard 1 and the clampingaction does not take place upon any particular point upon the standard,.but as a like clamping action upon the entire surface thereof.
What- I claim is:
1. A device ofjthe character described,
comprising a flag staff consisting of a short rod with a" projecting end adapted to be inserted in a socket, and means for clamping a flag thereto, consisting of a longitudinally concave clamping arm hinged at one end to said rod. and adapted to clasp the rod, and fit fiver the same, and means for detachably fastening the other end of said arm to the;
rod.
adjacent to such end, a longitudinally conother end engaging the flattened portions 10 at the other end of the rod and means for detachably fastening said ears to the rod..
In testimony whereof I hereunto afl ix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
JACOB K. MOORE.
2. A device of the character described; comprising a flag stafi consisting of a rod with a projecting end adapted to be inserted I in a socket and oppositely flattened portions cave clampin arm adapted to fit over and clamp the 1'0 and having a bifurcated end \Vitnesses:
hinged to the flattened portions adjacent to \VMM E. I'IANSON,
one end of the rod, and having ears at its 1 E. P. DEWEY.
