DESIGN FOR A PATTERN FOR VAULT-LIGHT FRAMES. SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 22,980, dated December 26, 1893. Application filed May 6, 1893. Serial No. 473,300. Term of patent 14 years.

To all whom it may concern:     Be it known that I, JACOB JACOBS, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York, and in the State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Design for a Pattern for Vault-Light Frames; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which--     Figure 1 shows a plan view of a portion of a frame for a vault-light or illuminating tile formed in accordance with my design. Fig. 2 shows a view of a section on line x, x of Fig. 1.     Letters of like name and kind refer to like parts in each of the figures.     The object of my invention has been to provide a new and useful design for a pattern for the lens holding frames of vault-lights or illuminating tiles, and to this end my invention consists in the design substantially as shown in the drawings and specified hereinafter.     In the drawings A designates the base or bottom portion of the frame, upon which the lenses B, B, rest, and C, designates the upwardly projecting part, which is to extend

around the sides of the lenses, so as to form recesses in which such lenses can be held by cement or other holding material, as shown at b, b. The frame, so constructed, is arranged as shown, so that the light-admitting and lens-receiving openings therein are circular and octagonal, with the sides of the octagon made concave. Each octagonal opening D is surrounded by alternately arranged larger and smaller circular openings D' and D², respectively, which are opposite the sides of the hexagon. This relative arrangement of the different openings can be carried out throughout the frame, however large it may be.     Having thus described my invention, what I claim is--     The design for a pattern for a frame for vault-lights or illuminating tiles, substantially as shown and described.     In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 30th day of March, 1893. JACOB JACOBS. Witnesses:     GEO. W. TICE,     DAVID G. BEECHING.
