BRACKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 687,127, dated November 19, 1901. Application filed September 1, 1900. Serial No. 28,768. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES E. CHAPMAN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of San Jose, in the county of Santa Clara and State of California, have invented a new and Improved Bracket, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in brackets for supporting small articles; and the object is to provide a bracket of very simple and comparatively inexpensive construction that may be easily attached to a Stovepipe, wall, post, or other support without the use of nails or screws.
I will describe a bracket embodying my invention and then point out the novel features in the appended claims.
Reference is to be had to theaccompanyin g drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a bracket embodying my invention, and Fig. 2 is a side view thereof.
The bracket consists of a platform 1, here shown as made in the form of a plate. This platform may be made of any suitable material; but for the sake of cheapness and lightness with sufficient strength I prefer to form it of metal that may be readily stamped out. Extended around and secured to the under side of the rim of the platform is a supporting-wire 2, the ends of this wire being coiled together, as at 3, and they terminate in fastening-points 4 5. These connected ends of the wire extend upward substantially at right angles to the plane of the platform, and by employing two fastening-points 4 and 5 when the same are driven into a support lateral or swinging motion of the bracket is prevented. It will be noted that these fastening-points are extended at a downward angle with relation and by thus arranging the fastening-points there will be no danger of pulling them out of a wooden support by pressure upon the platform of the bracket. The fastening-points may be driven into a post, into a wooden partition, or into any frame portion of a building. They may also be driven through a Stovepipe, if desired, thus supporting the bracket over a stove.
This bracket will be found very useful in many places for supporting matches, lamps, soap, or any other articles.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A bracket, comprising a flanged plate or platform, and a wire extending around the platform or plate below the flange thereof and secured to the same, the ends of the wire being bent upward above and at approximately right angles to the plane of the platform or plate, coiled together, and terminating one above the other in outwardlybent ends forming fastening-points, as set forth.
2. A bracket, consisting of a dished and flanged platform or plate, and a wire extending around the body of the platform below the flange thereof and secured to the said flange, the ends of the wire being bent upward above and at approximately right angles to the plane of the platform, coiled together, and terminating one above the other in outwardly and downwardly bent ends forming fasteningpoints, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
J. E. CHAPMAN.
