Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Aug, 18, 1914,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GUs'rAvE' B. BOHNE,
a citizen of the UnitedSt'ates, and a resident of West Hoboken, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, h ave inventeda new and Improved Votive-Oder ing Stand, of which the following is a full,
clear, and exact description- Among the principal objects which the present invention has in view are: to providea receptacle for the mone box used to receive votive moneys usually eposited in a stand specially provided therefor; 'to provide a cover for said receptacle 'and means connected therewith for detecting the removal of said cover to obtain access to the money-box; and to provide a simple and economical structure forastand :of the character named.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical section taken on the median line of a stand of the character named, constructed and arrangedin accordance with the present invention; Fig. 2 is a horizontal section taken on the line'22 in ,Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a detail view, on an enlarged scale, showing in ver,
tical section a central fragment of the dish cover and hollow standard employed in the present invention.
It has been the practice heretofore to provide an exposed money-box, more or less readily removable from a stand designed to hold candles employed in religious services. The'boxes thus exposed have been at times stolen or rifled. To prevent this, the present invention provides the ring-like body 8 with which stands of this character are usually provided, with an unbroken bottom 9. The
bottom 9 serves to support the body 8, a tubular extension 10 being rigidly connected with a hollow standard 11, which at the lower end is provided with supporting legs or feet 12. The standard 11 extends upward abovethe bottom 9, and preferably above the upper edge of the body 8, as shown best in Fig. 1 of the drawings, and serves to support a candelabrum 13, the standard whereof is provided at the lower endwith a squared shoulder to rest directly upon the end of the standard 11.
The receptacle formed by the body 8 and bottom 9 is usually covered'by a dish 14. The dish 14 is centrally provided with an upwardly-extending tubular projection 15, which enfolds the upper end of the standard 11 and terminates at the upper edge 2 mechanism of said bell and said battery is Application filed November 6, 1913. Serial No. 799,525.
for, the 'squaredshoulde'r of the candelabrum 13.
' Within the box-likereceptacle thus formed, a money-box 16 is held. An opening formed in the box 16 is provided to receive a coin-chute 17, which chute opens outward through a face-plate 18, with which thebody 8 is provided. While I have shown the :box as permanently held within the receptacle by means ofrivets 19, it will be understood that these may be dispensed with, and the box may bemade removable from the stand. 1
To remove the box 16 or obtain access thereto, it is necessary to lift the dish 14 v When using 'a" stand of'the present construction, the lift and the candelabrum 13.
mg of the candelabrum 13'is attended by the ringing of a bell 20. I The bell 20, as shown best in Fig. 2 of the drawings, is mounted within thechamber formed by the body 8, and is electrically connected with a battery The circuit embodying the operating completed when the spring contacts 22 and 23 are permitted to engage. The contacts 22 and 23 are both insulated from the standard 11, and are provided with binding posts 24, to which circuit wires 25 are connected. Normally, when in service, the contacts 22 and 23 are separated by a pin 26, with which the candelabrum is provided. The pin 26 is constructed from suitable insulating material, and extends between, to separate, said contacts whenever the candelabrum is in service position. When, by lifting the candelabrum 13, the contacts 22 and 23 are permitted to'engage, the operating electric circuit for the bell 20 is completed, and said bell is actuated to sound an alarm.
In service, the dish 14 is furnished with a supply of water or sand, the object of which is to extinguish and absorb any melted-wax overflow of the candles on the candelabrum. As the candelabrum rests upon the dish 14, it is evident that to raise the same to gain access to the box 16, results in sounding the alarm, or in ringing the bell 20.
To prevent the contents of the box being extracted therefrom, the chute 17 is closed by a swinging gate 27, which swings freely inward but is held by any outward strain applied thereto, inposition to close said chute. The gate is sufficiently removed from the entrance to said chute, to make it ditfithereof to also support, and form a rest the teeth 29. Any line or device flexible; to
drop to the bottom of the box, would be caught between, or become entangled with the said teeth, when said device is being withdrawn.
Claims- 1. A votive-offering stand, comprising a chambered receptacle; a cash-box mounted within said receptacle and having a receiving opening extending to the outside of said receptacle; a cover for said receptacle; a candelabrum disposed above said cover to hold the same in service relation; and an electric alarm having an operating circuit embodying circuit-closing contacts normally separated when in service, by said cande- .labrum, adapted to close when said candelabrum is lifted to release said cover.
2. A votive-offering stand, comprising a chambered receptacle; a cash-box mounted within said receptacle and having a reeeiving opening extending to the outside of said receptacle; a cover for said receptacle; a candelabrum disposed above said cover to hold the same in service relation; and an electric alarm, embodying an electric source, an electro-mechanically-operated audible d vice, and spring electric contacts'disposed to be separated by said candela'brum when in service relation.
3. A votive-offering stand, comprising a chambered receptacle; a. cash-box mounted within said receptacle and having a receiving opening extending to the outside of said JOHN Semen,
