词源
mantel(n.)c. 1200, “short, loose, sleeveless cloak,” variant of mantle (q.v.). Sense of “movable shelter for soldiers besieging a fort” is from 1520s.
The meaning “timber or stone supporting masonry above a fireplace” is attested by 1510s; it is a shortened form of Middle English mantiltre “mantle-tree” (late 15c.) “beam of oak or some other hard wood above a fireplace or oven” (with tree in the now-obsolete sense of “beam”). But the exact meaning of mantle in that had become obscure by the 19c.

In a fire-place, the mantle or mantlepiece, may have been either a covered or chimney-piece; or the part below it to which a hanging, for the sake of making a flue for the wind to draw up the fire, was attached. The details, however, of this are uncertain. [Robert Gordon Latham, “A Dictionary of the English Language,” 1882]

Mantel-clock “clock intended to sit on a mantle-shelf,” is by 1824.also from c. 1200

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
曼特尔(n.)c. 1200,“短、宽松、无袖斗篷”,斗篷的变体(qv)。 “为围攻堡垒的士兵提供的移动庇护所”的含义来自1520年代。 1510 年代证实了“壁炉上方支撑砖石的木材或石头”的含义;它是中古英语 mantiltre“mantle-tree”(15 世纪末)的缩写形式,“壁炉或烤箱上方的橡木或其他硬木梁”(“树”的含义现已废弃)。但到了 19 世纪,地幔的确切含义已经变得模糊了。在壁炉中,壁炉架或壁炉架可能是有盖的或烟囱件;或在其下方附有悬挂物的部分,以便制作烟道,以便风将火吸走。然而,具体细节尚不确定。 [罗伯特·戈登·莱瑟姆 (Robert Gordon Latham),《英语词典》,1882 年] 壁炉钟“旨在放置在壁炉架上的时钟”,是 1824 年的。 1200
