ADJUSTABLE EOSE-HQLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
PatentedDec. EH3.
Application filed April 20, 1912. Serial No. 892,119.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, YVILLIAM H. MAT- rrrnws, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Adjustable Hose-Holders, of which I declare the following to be a full clear, and exact de cription.
This invention relates to improvements in devices for holding garden hose and has more particular relation to improvements in such devices of the adjustable type in which the direction and angle of elevation of the stream of water may be instantly changed.
One of the principal objects of the invention is to provide a hose-holder that may be instantly adjusted to the desired position on the lawn without the use of any tools and without the loosening or adjusting of nuts or other like holding devices.
A further object is to greatly cheapen and simplify the construction of lawn hoseholders.
The invention has further objects all of which will be apparent from the following description and accompanying drawings in which latter the single figure represents a perspective view of the devices embodying my invention; the dotted line construction showing the hose in position and different adjusted positions of the holder.
In general terms my improved devices may be described as being constructed entirely of wire with the exception of the bracing prong 2 which is stamped out of sheet metal and formed about the angular bend 3 of the supporting standard. The lower part of this standard is formed into a foot piece 4t and a supporting prong 5 which latter is forced into the ground by foot pressure on the part 4 until this latter part rests upon the ground. The prong 2 also enters the ground and prevents the standard 1 from turning or changing direction. lVhen it is desired to change direction of the stream from the hose the handle 6 at the upper end of standard 1 is grasped and the standard elevated until the prong 2 is free of the ground. The device is then swung laterally with the prong 5 as a center and the prong 2 again forced into the ground by foot pressure on the part a.
By reference to the drawing it will be seen that the handle wire 6 is bent inward at its lower end, as at 7, to form a fulcrum or journal support for a coil of wire 8. Que end of this coil is formed into a handle 9 while the opposite end forms one of the holding arms 10 for the hose nozzle 11. The arm 10 is formed with a hose clip 12 and passes through a guidin loop 18 formed on the opposite holding arm 14;. This arm 1% is also formed with a hose clip 15 and makes one turn about the journal 7 and is formed into a nozzle loop 16; the opposite end of the loop wire making one turn about the journal 7, as at 17.
The hose nozzle is passed through the loop 16 and the clips 12 and 15 and the latter clamp d upon the nozzle by a loose runner 18 the op osite ends of which are coiled about the arms 10 and 14-. When the runner is moved toward the outer ends of the arms the nozzle is clamped between the clips.
l Vhen it is desired to elevate the nozzle 11 of the hose the arm 10 is drawn upward and the coil 8 tends to open on the journal part 7 and relieves all friction. The weight of the hose and the nozzle, can not depress the parts as a downwar pressure on the arm 10 will cause the coil 8 to tighten on the ournal part- '4' and prevent the coil turning. l /hen the handle 9 and arm 10 are drawn toward each other by the operator however the coil 8 is opened and the nozzle may be readily depressed. The release of the handle 9 againlocks the parts firmly in position. By the above means the hose nozzle may be instantly adjusted to any desired position and without the use of tools or loosening of locking nuts or other like devices. At the same time all the parts are firmly held in position against any accidental displacement.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a hose-holder the combination with a supporting standard of a hose clamp, and an opening and closing friction coil turning on the standard supporting the clamp.
2. In a hose-holder the combination with a supporting standard, of a hose clamp, a friction coil turning on the standard supporting the clamp, and a handle for opening the coil at will.
3. In a hose-holder the combination with a supporting standard, of a hose clamp, a horizontal friction coil, means connecting the coil and clamp whereby the coil resists downward movement but may move upward freely.
4. In a hose-holder the combination with a support of a nozzle device a supporting friction coil for the same mounted on the support and which resists downward movement but may move upward freely.
5. In a hose-holder the combination with a ground support, of hose holding devices mounted thereon and including a friction coil which opens on pressure in one direction but closes on pressure in the opposite direction.
6. In a hose-holder the combination with a supporting standard, having a journal part, of hose holding devices including a friction coil mounted on the journal part, and means for opening the coil at will.
7 In a hose-holderthe combination with a supporting standard having two spaced ground prongs of different lengths one forming a pivot and the other preventing rotation on the pivot and a connecting foot piece, of a hose clamp on the standard.
8. In a hose-holder the combination with a supporting standard, having a journal part, of a hose clamp having a friction coil mounted on the journal, means for opening the coil to allow adjustment, and means for securing the clamp on the hose.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
