Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
172 words
A shock resistant gas pole light comprising: a rigid gas supply conduit disposed in an upright position and connected to a gas supply near the lower end of the conduit; a hollow pole surrounding said rigid gas supply conduit but spaced and separate therefrom; anchor means for anchoring the lower end of said hollow pole; means mounting the lower end of said rigid gas conduit in said hollow pole; said rigid gas conduit being spaced from and completely detached and separated from the upper portion of said hollow pole; a gas burner having mantles therewith and connected to the upper end of said rigid gas supply conduit above the upper end of said hollow pole for burning gas from said gas supply to provide illumination, whereby shocks and impacts imparted to the hollow pole are not transmitted to the mantles of the gas burner; and a gas light head affixed to the upper end of said hollow pole and surrounding said gas burner, but separate and detached from said conduit and burner.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
172 words
A shock resistant gas pole light comprising: a rigid gas supply conduit disposed in an upright position and connected to a gas supply near the lower end of the conduit; a hollow pole surrounding said rigid gas supply conduit but spaced and separate therefrom; anchor means for anchoring the lower end of said hollow pole; means mounting the lower end of said rigid gas conduit in said hollow pole; said rigid gas conduit being spaced from and completely detached and separated from the upper portion of said hollow pole; a gas burner having mantles therewith and connected to the upper end of said rigid gas supply conduit above the upper end of said hollow pole for burning gas from said gas supply to provide illumination, whereby shocks and impacts imparted to the hollow pole are not transmitted to the mantles of the gas burner; and a gas light head affixed to the upper end of said hollow pole and surrounding said gas burner, but separate and detached from said conduit and burner.
