UMBRELLA DRAINER.

Patented July 18, 1905.
PATENT OFFICE.
MILES E. HALL, OF PLAINFIELD, NEW JERSEY.
UMBRELLA-DRAWER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 794,710, dated July 18, 1905. Application filed December 19, 1904. Serial No. 237,415.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MILns E. HALL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Plaintield, in the county of Union and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Umbrella-Drainer, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a small portable receptacle that may be attached to the end of an umbrella-stick for the purpose of receiving thewater that drains oif the'umbrella; and the object of my improvement is to provide such a drainer that shall be light, easily attached and removed. of pleasing shape, of large capacity, and that may be cheaply constructed, which object 1 attain by the construction shown in the accompanying drawings, in
which Figure 1 shows the drainer with the end of an umbrella-stick inserted. Fig. 2 shows a longitudinal cross-section of the same. Fig. 3 shows a cross-section of the same on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 shows a plan of the same.
Similar reference characters refer to like parts throughout the several views.
While um brellas are almost a necessity during rainy weather, they are often also very inconvenient when one wishes to enter a building where no provision is made to permit the umbrella to drain and drip elsewhere than on the floor, as in theaters and assembly-halls, where the water that runs from many umbrellas becomes a nuisance and often a menace to health. The means here presented consists of a tube of greater length than the projecting end of the umbrella-stick. In my preferred form it consists of a tapering tube 1, having a spherical enlargement 2 to increase its capacity. Near the open end is an annular guide 3, having arms 4:, through the central opening of which ring the umbrella-stick 5 may be passed. To
hold the tube on the stick, I provide the two springs 6, which are secured to the tube 1 near its open end and extend inward, as shown in Fig. 2. These springs should have suflicient strength to hold the drainer when filled with water securely attached to the stick. The arms 4 and the springs 6 are shown secured to the inner side of the tube; but they may also be secured to the outside or if the tube is made of metal or other suitable material may be made integral with the tube.
The material may be thin metal, papier-mfich, celluloid, or any other desirable material that may be carried in the pocket without liability of being crushed. When large numbers of persons are expected on rainy-days, drai-ners of paraffined paper may be provided at a cost below that of the damage by the water draining from wet umbrellas.
After receiving the water from the umbrella the drainer may be removed and emptied at the first convenient opportunity. On account of the' pleasing shape the drainer may be permitted to remain attached to the umbrella without detracting from its general appearance.-
Minor changes in the shape of the tube and the construction of the guide and springs may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having now explained my improvement, what I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. An umbrella-drainer comprising atapering tube having a bulb at one end, a ring having radiating arms secured at their ends to the inner side of the tube at its open end to form a guide for the umbrella-stick, and springs secured to the inner side of the tube at its open end and extending inward and downward into the tube and toward each other to form means to grip the umbrella-stick and thus secure the drainer to the umbrella-stick.
2. An umbrella-drainer comprising a tube closed at one end and. open at the other, a perforated guide for the umbrella-stick secured at the open end of the tube, and springs attached at one end at the mouth of the tube to secure the drainer on the umbrella-stick,
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MILES E. HALL.
