VACUUM SUPPORTING DEVICE Specicaton of Letters Patent. Patented NOV. 28, 1911.
Application led March 23,1911. Serial No. 616,430.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Ross HAZELRIGG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Alameda, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vacuum Supporting Devices, of which the following is a specification.
, This invention relates to devices for suspending various objects from a smooth surface by temporarily securing said device by suction to said smooth surface and suspending an article therefrom, as for example, to suspend a shaving mirror from a window pane or wall, and also suspending advertising devices from windows or other smooth surfaces.
Referring to the accompanying drawings :-Figure 1 is a plan view of a suction device adapted to be temporarily secured to a smooth surface such as a wall vor pane of glass and provided with means for sus'- pending an object therefrom. Fig. 2 is a view in cross section of the device on the line X-X, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an edge view of the device shown as secured toa portion of a Wall or other. smooth surface. Fig.- 4 is a detail edge view of a ring employed with the device. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the ring referred to in Fig. 4. j
In carrying out the invention, the device comprises a disk 1 which may be in the form of a button, constructed of flexible material and formed With'a concave portion 2, an annular flange 3, and a central stem 4. In conjunction with the disk or button 1`there is employed a ring 5 formed with the annular flat portion 6 and the vertical annular iange 7, the ring 5 resting upon the top of the disk 1 and having the periphery thereof bearing against the fiange 3 of the disk.
Extending through a hole in the stem 4 is a spring strip 8, which as shown, consists of a\thin strip of metal having a short elastic arm 9 and a long elastic arm 10, the short arm 9 being curved at its end 11. The ring 5 is formed on. .its opposite sides with notches'12 and the arms 9 and 10 rest in the notches 12.
The device hereinbefore described is secured to awall 13 or a pane of glass'or other smooth surface by pressing the disk 1 against said smooth surface thereby vcausing it to adhere thereto by suction. The arm 10 of the spring strip 8 projects beyond. the
vside of the disk 1 and is formed at its outer end with the hook shaped portion 14 which bears against the wall 13. It will be secn that by means of this construction that the spring strip 8 aids in holding the disk 1 against the wall, the spring action of the vstrip 8 serving to hold the disk outwardly and maintain the suction thereof against the Wall. The hook 14 serves as a means for suspending an object from the device.
Having described the invention, what I claim is A device of the kind described consisting of a suction disk having a central stem and an annular liange,l a notched ring resting on said disk, and a spring strip formed with a short arm and a long yielding arm, each of said arms resting in the notches vof the disk, and the long arm projecting beyond said disk and ring and formed with a curvedy hook-sha ed outer end. l
In testimony whereof I affix my signatl'xre in presence of two witnesses.
