Abstract
A conical helix decorative Christmas tree with lights attached is supported either on a pole or a bracket extending from a wall. If a pole is used, the base may be in a tree stand or a bracket attached to a wall. In both embodiments the base of the helix has a circle aligned by a plurality of strings attaching the circumference of the circle to a washer at the radial center of the helix. More than one helix may be used in this manner to form the tree. A shroud may be used to add a translucent decorative effect. A topper of a star, angel or continuation of the conical tree to a point may be added at the top of the conical helix tree. The tree can be attached to horizontal or vertical surfaces.
Claims18
A support for a conical helical coil lighting decoration comprising:
- a spiral of plastic material having wires and lights along its length, having a central end and a distal end, an intervening conical spiral, an axially central axis, and having a loop of material forming a circle at the distal end, with the distal end attached to the spiral forming a fixed circumference circle,
- a plurality of radial connections extended from the loop of material and connected to a washer at an axial center of the spiral,
- a top support disk centered radially on the axial center of the spiral and connected to the central end of the spiral of plastic material,
- a plurality of vertical spacing members connecting the loop of material on the circle at the distal end to the top support disk and connected to the intervening conical spiral of material on a line between the distal end circle and the top support disk to support and space the spiral of plastic material in a conical shape.
