page_text: I BARUCH CARS of the Lion Lamp Works, Charlotte Street, Great Eastern
Street, Shoreditch in the County of Middlesex, Lamp Manufacturer do hereby
declare the nature of the said Invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN LAMPS to be as
follows:-
The Invention has for its object improvements in lamps whereby the same are
fitted to receive a clock and are thereby made to combine the advantages of a clock
and lamp in the same article.
For this purpose I form or fix in the base or body of the lamp a fitting of suitable
shape to receive the clock.
The fitting is of cylindrical or other form and the clock case is made to fit tightly
therein, or if desired it may be provided with a bayonet or other catch or fastening
which while securely holding the clock, at the same time accurately aljusts the
same in position in the lamp.

I BARUCH CARS of the Lion Lamp Works, Charlotte Street, Great Eastern
Street, Shoreditch in the County of Middlesex, Lamp Manufacturer do hereby
declare the nature of said Invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN LAMPS and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement:-
The Invention has for its abject improvements in lamps whereby the same are
fitted to receive a clock and are thereby made to combine the advantages of a clock
and lamp in the same article.
For this purpose I form or fix in or on the base or body of the lamp a fitting of
suitable shape to receive the clock.
The fitting is of cylindrical or other form and the clock case is made to fit tightly
therein, or if desired it may be provided with a bayonet or other catch or fastening
which while securely holding the clock, at the same time accurately adjusts the
same in position in the lamp.
And in order that my said Invention may be more clearly understood and
readily carried into effect I will proceed aided by the accompanying drawings more
fully to describe the same.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.
Figure 1 is a front view of a lamp with my Invention applied thereto and
Figure 2 is a side view of the same showing the base thereof partly in section.
a is the base or body of the lamp, which may be of any desired design but
according to my Invention form or fix therein a fitting b of suitable shape to
receive a clock c.
The fitting is of cylindrical or other form and the clock case is made to fit
tightly therein or if desired it may be provided with a bayonet or other catch or
fastening d which while securely bolding the clock at the same time accurately
adjusts the same in position in the lamp.
In the drawings I have represented a simple spring catch d which is caused to
Other
enter a recess formed in the edge of the front portion of the clock case.
forms of fastening and adjusting means may however be employed and the fitting
may in some cases be caused to partially or entirely project from the face of the
lamp.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and the manner in which the same is to be performed I declare that
what I claim is
1. Forming or fixing on or within the base or body of a lamp a fitting of
suitable shape to receive a clock substantially as herein shown and described and
2. In combination with a lamp a fitting b to receive a clock and fastening and
adjusting means substantially as herein shown and described.
