COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
A New Globe Holder, Grease Catcher, and Extinguisher for
Candles.
I, JAMES RICHARD OSBORN, of Hythe House, Hythe, Dear Southampton,
Hampshire, Gentleman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in
what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention relates to novel features constituting improvements in globe holders,
grease catchers and extinguishers intended for being placed on candles.
Refering to the annexed drawings
Fig. 1 is a side elevation.
vertical section.
Fig. 3 a plan with globes removed.
Fig. 4 a section on line 4-4 of Fig. 2 and
Fig. 5 shows a modification.
The improvements consist of a socket A to which are attached by soldering or
otherwise four or more supports, B, of wire for carrying the gallery or band C.
These supports are shouldered at B¹ and support the upper globe D. To this
gallery or band ornamental hangings may be attached by hooking into eyes in the
Jugs D fixed on the lower part thereof. These may consist of silk hangings as
at E (Fig. 1) or of glass pendants F (Fig. 2) or of lace or any other ornamental
design and of any suitable material. In the interior of the socket A is placed
an inner socket A having soldered both on the inner and outer sides thereof
wires A, A, so as to leave spaces A* for admitting air to the flame (see Fig. 4).
The inner wires A³ are bent at the top and bottom as shown. At the top the socket
carries a ring G preferably of bone resting resting on the lower globe D' which globe
is held by the wire supports B. The ring is to prevent the heat of the flame from
travelling to the said lower globe. An air space is also left between the two globes
as at H. An extinguisher is provided consisting of a disc I of glass, porcelain etc.,
supported by a rod J fixed to a cross rod K supported in the gallery C and
terminating in a handle L. The extinguisher is normally held in its upright
position by a spring (not shown). In Fig. 5 is shown a modification in which
only one globe is used supported by the outwardly turned edges M of the inner
socket A¹.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
The new holder with globe consisting of two halves with an air space at their
junction and a socket forming a grease receptacle at the lower part combined
with an inner candle socket furnished with one or more air spaces surrounding it
and the candle, together with an extinguisher, and when desired hangings or
decorative materials, all substantially as illustrated and described.
Dated this 3rd day of November 1896.

only one globe is used supported by the outwardly turned edges M of the inner
socket A.
