UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WADE L. FRANCE, OF ZANESVILLE, OEIO.
BULB HOLDER.
Application filed May 1,
ment with the margin of the mouth of a cup,
vase or other like vessel for growing hyacinths or narcissus or other flowering plants for holding the bulb whereby the roots thereof may extend downwardly or grow downwardly into the vessel.
Another purpose is to provide a holder which is simple in construction and may be manufactured at a relatively low cost and sold at a reasonable profit.
Still another purpose is the provision of a holder constructed of wire of sufficient gauge to withstand the weight of the bulbs,
especially when in bloom and when the roots have grown into the vessel, the holder comprising inner and outer ring portions with intervening rings for the reception of the bulbs, together with brackets, the arrangement and construction of which being such as to engage the vessel and thereby support the holder in position.
A further purpose is offset extension loops at the outer terminal portions of the brackets for the purpose of receiving any irregularities on the marginal edge of the month end of a vessel to obviate accidental rotation of the holder.
A still further purpose is to provide means at the inner terminal portions of the brackets beyond the inner ring so a to support a bulb or other flowering plant.
It is to be understood that the particulars herein given are in no way limitative and that, while still keeping within the scope of the invention, any desired modifications of detail and desired proportions may be made in the device according to the circumstances.
The invention comprises further features and combinations of parts to be hereinafter set forth, shown in the. drawings and claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a view in perspective of the improved holder, showing the same mounted on a vase and constructed in accordance with the invention, with bulbs supported thereon.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the holder.
to provide upwardly Serial No. 710,372.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates the holder as a whole, which comprises the inner and outer rings 2 and 3. These rings are concentric andinterposed between and connected to them are rings 4-. disposed diametrically. Soldering, spot welding or similar fastenings may be used for connecting the rings 4; to the rings 2 and 3 to insure rigidity.
The inner and outer rings 2 and 3 are for the purpose of strengthenlng and reinforcing the rings 4 which support hyacinths and other bulbs and flowering plants. The rings A: are of such diameter as to support the greater portion of the flowering bulb above the holder with a small portion below the holder, so that the roots may extend down or grow into the vessel on which the holder rests.
In order to support the holder on a vessel, a plurality of brackets or arms 5 are provided. These brackets or arms may be sol.- dered, spot welded or otherwise fastened at 6 to the rings 2 and 3. The brackets or arms, like the rings 2, 3 and 4, are constructed of suitable wire in the form of loops which are disposed radially. The arm or bracket disposed intermediately between two of-the rings 4 is constructed of a single length of wire made in the form of a loop, the ends of the wire being welded, soldered or otherwise connected, as at 7, while the remaining brackets, which are disposed adjacent the remaining rings 4, have those portions which would normally cross said rings removed.
It will be noted that the inner ends of the arms or brackets extend a substantial dis tance inwardly beyond the ring 2, said inner ends being spaced a. distance sufficient to permit a bulb to rest upon the ends and in this way permit a fifth bulb to be supported upon the holder.
The sides of the outer port-ions of the arms or brackets extend upwardly and are bent outwardly to provide extensions 8 which may rest upon the margin or edge of the opening of the vessel, so as to support the holder in place. Due to the arms or brackets being in the form of loops, the sides thereof being spaced, the loops are permitted to receive scallops or other projections on the marginal edge of the vessel, thereby preventing accidental rotation of the holder when supported in position.
It is obvious that any number of bulb hold ing rings may be used or any number of bl ackets may be employed.
The invention having been set forth, What is claimed is:
1. A bulb holder comprising inner and outer concentric rings, bulb holding rings interposed between and connected to' the inner and outer rings, and brackets extending radially of and connected to the inner and outer rings and provided with outer upwardly offset extension loops for resting upon the margin of the mouth end of a vessel to support the holder.
2. A bulb or other flowering plant holder comprising inner and outer concentrically spaced rin 's with bulb holding rings intervening and connected to the inner and outer rings, and brackets extending radially of and connected to the inner and outer rings with means at their outer ends to" engage with the marginal end of the mouth opening of a vessel to support the. holder, the inner portions of the brackets having loops proj eating inwardly beyond the inner ring and with their terminal portions spaced to sup port a bulb or other flowering plant.
3. A bulb or other flowering plant holder comprising inner and outer concentrically spaced rings with bulb or other flowering plant holding rings intervenin and fastened to the inner and outer rings, and brackets disposed radially of and connected to the inner and outer rings and intervening between the bulb holding rings, the outer portions of the brackets terminating in upwardly offset loops for engagement with the marginal edge of the month end of a vessel whereby any irregular formation on the edge may engage the loops, the inner terminal pertions of the brackets extending inwardly beyond the inner ring and spaced to support a bulb or other flowering plant.
In testimony whereof he affixes his signature.- V
