Hi David,
Kindermann sold different dark room lamp models.
Are you looking for information on a specific model?

El modelo del cual busco informacion es una lampara de doble tubo concentrico para uso de laboratorio fotografico y ademas informacion de una pieza cilindrica de bronce que va colocada en la parte superior del tubo externo de 50 mm de diametro. Esta pieza sirve para evitar que los rayos de luz puedan escaparse y dañar el film. Tambien me interesaria conseguir la patente que le fué otorgada a Kindermann por esta lampara. Se que la patente existe pues en una oportunidad la pude ver en Internet pero nunca mas la volvi a encontrar.
Les mando mis saludos y muchas gracias por vuestra ayuda.
Gracias

Hi David,

This is an excerpt of an undated Kindermann catalogue where one double-glass model is listed.
The inner glass is a yellow/amber colored 10''' Kosmos chimney and the outer glass is a ruby-red 49mm tube.
I have also attached a picture of a very similar lamp from my collection for you to visualize it better.
I think I have seen a patent for such a lifting system one day, but I doubt that it was Kindermann.

Regards
Markus
