CHAMBER SPRING ATTACHMENT.

Application filed June 24, 1920.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, LEVI R. H. DICK, a citizen of the United States,. residing at- Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of lllinois, have invented new and useful lmprovements in Chamber Spring Attacln ments, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to means for holdin a vessel to the bottom of a seat and the principal object of the invention is to provide spring loop detachably engaging the vessel with means for supporting the loop so that it may expand and contract while being firmly supported from the seat.

Another object of the invention is to so form the ends of the loop member that the vessel may be easily inserted between said ends or withdrawn therefrom.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.

In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a side view showing the invention in use.

Figure 2 is a bottom view.

Figure 3 is a detail view of one of the brackets.

In these views 1 indicates the seat and 2 indicates the vessel. This vessel is adapted to be supported from the seat and it is provided with a rim 3 which is engaged by the ring member l which may be formed from a metal rod. This member is supported from the bottom of the seat by the brackets 5 and 6. The bracket 5 is of sub- Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 391,538.

stantially Z-shape with one part suitably secured to the bottom of the seat and its free end formed with the eye 6 to receive the ring member. This bracket engages that part of the ring member which is opposite the opening in said member. I use a pair of the brackets 6 and each of these brackets is made somewhat similar to the bracket '5 but its free end is extended to the central offset part so as to form an elongated eye 7 to receive the ring member. In. this way the part of the ring member engaged by said elongated eye have movement in said eye, thus permitting the jaws 8 formed at the ends of the ring member to be moved apart to permit entrance of the vessel. The

brackets 6 are opposite each other and are spaced about from the bracket 5. The jaws 8 are formed by curving the ends of the ring member outwardly as shown.

It will thus be seen that the vessel may be easily passed between the jaws so that its rim will be engaged by the ring member and p The combination with a seat, of a ring shaped clamping member having its ends spaced apart, a Z-shaped bracket having an eye for engaging the ring member and another bracket having an elongated eye for movably engaging the ring.

In testimony whereof I afiix my LEVI R. H. DICK.
