Application filed A ugust 19, 1922. Serial no. 583,020.
To all whom it my concern:
Be it known that I, J OHN S. SAMMONS, a
citizen of the United States, residing, at.
Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Shade-Display Stands, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a display stand particularly designed for use in displaying lamp shades or analogous articles, and an object of the invention is ,toprovide a display stand by means of which a pluralit of shades may, be displayed, for indepen ent movementrelative to each other and relative to the support so as to permit ,a shadeto be swung, into, any desired exhibiting position, within certain.l,imits,,and also to. .provide a shade displaysupport or stand in which the electric lights or bulbs will be supported within the shades so as to give the appearance to the shades, that they assume when" u'pon a lighted. lamp.
Another object ofthis invention is'lto provideanovel formof shade support which is designed to permitrthe. ready placing or removal of a shade therefrom without requiringthe removal ofthe lamp bulbfrom its socket thereby permitting the replace.-
mentof a shade; as .often as desired and with a minimum effort and in a minimum amount" of time. i.
A further object of this invention is to provide a display. stand as specified, which is neatand artistic in appearance, may be manufactured at a relatively low. cost and carries a suitable panel or descriptive board upon which suitable descriptive matter may be displayed, said board being arranged to prevent obscuring ofthe' view of the shades one of the joints employed in the stand structure. 4 p v Fig. 3 is, a detail section through another joint employed in the stand structure. Fig. A is a detail vertical section through one of the shadesupportin'g and bulb carrying members.
p in horizontal Fig. 5 ,is .a fragmentary horizontal sectionon the line 5-5 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is a detailgperspective view of one of the board supportingvv arms.
Fig.7 is a diagrammatic view illustrating themanner of wiringthe improved display stand.
Referring more particularly to the drawings the improved display stand comprises standards 1 and 2 constructed of any suitable material, preferably. hollow tubing. The standards 1 and 2 are supported by bases 3 .andA: respectively, which may be of any approved con'structionand it is to .beunderstoodthat the improved display stand may bemadein any desired height. so that it maybe supported, upon a counter, table, or the like, .or may be supported from the floor of a showroonior salesroom, without departing from the spirit of this invention. V
The upper ends of thestandardsl. and 2 are curved inwardly, and downwardly to, provide an artisticappearance totheupper portion of the display stand, and. also .to form supports forthe shade and bulb sup port 5. f A plurality of combined. bulb and shade supports 6 are carried by supporting arms which are in turn supported from the standardsl and2. A. plurality of collars 7, and 8' are attachedto the standards 1 and 2 in any suitable manner, such as by welding, soldering or the like, and the collars 7 have supporting arms 8 connected thereto by means of the ball and socket joints .9. as shown' in Fig. 3' of the drawings. The ball and'socketjoints 9 comprise the arm carried ball 10 whichengages in the collar carried socket 11 and relative movement of these members are limited by the pivoting pins 12 so as to permit the armsl8 to be swung only lanes. The collars 7 and balls 10 are provi ed with suitable openings as indicated at '13 to permit the electric conducting wires 14 to pass therethrough and into and through the arms 8 from which they extend to the lamp sockets 15 which are'carried by the supports 6.
The supports Gare substantially U shaped,
and are positioned transversely to the normal-position of a U, that is with their bight portions towards'the standards 1 or 2 re spectively and their outer ends opening outwardly from the standards, as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings so asto. perm t the insertion of the central supporting plate 16 of a lamp shade 17 between the legs 18 of the Supports 6 so that the opening 19 in the central supporting plate 16 may engage over the nipple 20 which extends upwardly from the lower leg of the supporting structure 6 adjacent to its free end, as clearly shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings. The nipple 20 is threaded to receive a removable cap 21 to permit the central supporting plate 16 to be clamped against the upper surface of the lower leg of the support 6, for supporting the shadeagainst wabbling or oscillatory movement. The lower leg 18 of the support 6 has a depending internally screw threaded nipple 22 formed thereon in alignment with the nipple 20, and the lamp socket 15 which may be of any approved switch socket type now on the market is detachably connected to the nipple 22 in the usual manner. The electric conducting wires 14 extend outwardly through the arms 8 and downwardly through the upper leg 18 of the support 6, passing around within the supports and entering the sockets 15 in the usual manner. The supports 6 are hollow so that the wires 14 will not show and the outer ends of the arms 8 are threaded for detachable connection with the nipples 24 formed upon the upper portions of the upper arms 18 of the supports. By the particular construction of the laterally outwardly opening U shaped supports 6, it will be apparent that a lamp shade of any approved type such as used upon pedestal lamps may be placed upon or removed from the support at will, with a minimum effort and without requiring the removal of the electric bulb from the socket 15. This is accomplished by removing the nut 21 and raising the central supporting plate 16 oil the nipple 20 after which the shade is moved outwardly a sufiicient distance to permit anyone of the relatively large spaces as indicated at 25 between the supporting rods 26 of the shade structure to be directly above the lamp bulb and socket which will thereby permit the shade to be removed by its downward movement over the support and socket and bulb.
The collars 8 have arms 8 connected thereto by means of ball and socket joints 9 similar in construction to the ball and socket-joints 9 functioning in the same manner, however, they have arms 27 connected thereto which latter arms are adapted to normally extend inwardly between the standards 1 and 2, while the arms 8 extend outwardly from the standards. The arms 27 are connected to ball couplers 28 which are in turn connected by suitable pins 29 to the ball shells or members 30 carried by the collars 8. The coupling members 28 and .30 as well as the pivot connecting pins 29 are hollow so as to receive the electric conducting wires 31 to permit the proper wiring of the support 6 carried by the inner ends of the arms 27. As clearly shown in the diagrammatic Figure 7 of the drawings, the electric wires enter from the supporting bases 3 and 4, and pass upwardly branching out into the various arms 8 and 27,
while'a pair of wires 33 extends upwardly 7 through either of the standards 1 or 2, to the support 5 which is rigidly carried at the upper ends of the standards for suspending a shade as indicated at 34 intermediate the standards. It is to be understoodthat the support 5 is similar in construction to the supports 6. r A name board or sign 36 is supported above the upper curved ends of the stand-' ards 1 and 2 by supporting arms 37 which arms have their lower ends bent inwardly as shown at 38 and provided with recesses 39 for engaging the standards 1 and 2 while their upper ends are curved outwardly as shown at 40 for adding to the artistic appearance of the display stand. The arms 37 are attached by suitable rivets 41 to collars 42 which are carried by the standards 1 and 2 and they are attached by screws or other suitable means to the board or sign 36, which is preferably made in any desirable artistic shape to add to the appearance of the device.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings it will be apparent that an improved lamp shade display stand has been provided by means of which lamp shades may be artistically displayed and in various positions relative one to another, said various positions being assumed by adjustment of the arms 8 and 27 and it will also be apparent that through the provision of the novel form of combined shade and socket support that a shade may be quickly replaced when desired without requiring the removal of the lamp bulb from the socket.
It is, of'course, to be understood that the invention may be constructed in other manners and the parts associated in different relations and, therefore, I do not desire to be limited in any manner except as set forth in the claims hereunto appended.
Having thus described my invention what I claim is:
1. In a display stand, standards, a plurality of arms, pivotally carried by said standards for movement in horizontal planes, and combined lamp bulb socket and shade supports carried by the freeends of said arms,
tially U shaped member openingoutlaterally to provide upper and lower horizontal arms, a shade engaging nipple carried by said lower arm and adapted to be inserted through the central supporting disc of a lamp shade for supporting the shade directly upon the arm, a clamping nut threaded on said nipple for preventing oscillatory movement of said shade, and a lamp socket connected to said lower arm.
3. A device of the class described including a supporting arm, a combined bulb and shade support detachably connected to said arm, said support including a substantially U shaped member disposed transversely of the supporting arm to provide upper and lower horizontal arms, means carried by the lower arm for engaging a portion of the lamp shade for directly supporting the same upon said lower arm, and additional means arranged in opposed relation with the first means whereby a lamp socket may be detachably connected with said lower arm.
4. A device of the class described including a supporting arm, a U shaped supporting member disposed laterally with respect to the arm and having one of its arms detachably connected to said supporting arm, a
nipple formed on the other arm of the support adapted to be engaged with a lamp shade whereby to position the shade directly upon the supporting arm, a clamping nut threaded on said nipple for retaining the shade in position upon the arm, and a lamp socket having connection with the last mentioned arm in opposed relation with respect to the nipple.
5. A. display stand including a supporting arm, a U shaped support projecting laterally with respect to the arm and having one of its arms detachably connected to the sup porting arm at a point adjacent its end, a nipple extending outwardly from the other arm of the U shaped support adapted to be inserted through the central support of a lamp shade whereby to position the shade directly upon the arm, a clamping nut engaged with the nipple to engage the shade in position upon the arm, a second nipple on the last mentioned arm disposed in transverse alignment with the transverse nipple and being internally threaded whereby to detachably connect a lamp socket thereto.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
