Oscillating beds, oscillating steels and the like.

Patented in the German Empire on July 29, 18gi.

The present bed frames, chairs, and the like are primarily for use determined on ships and so arranged that they are automatically horizontal to adjust. The bed frames, etc. are so special, bezw with the deck. Girders connected to the hull of the ship, so that they remain in spite of the movements of the Always keep the ship as horizontal as possible, with violent movements and jolts repealed by suitable spring connections respectively. be mitigated. There are also facilities hit, through which the rocking beds, chairs etc., if desired, determined d. H. can be firmly connected to the hull, so that the same then the Movements of the latter have to participate.

Fig. Ι and 2 show a swing bed,

Fig. 3, 4 and 5 a rocking chair,

Figures 6, 7 and 8 show another embodiment of the latter;

9 and 10 illustrate a lashing bolt for temporarily locking the rocking chair.

The swing bed, the chair, etc., are suspended by means of ball joints bb on the support rods c , which are fastened with their upper ends to the support beams d. The latter hang with the bolts e, which are spherical. Have extension e ¹ in their middle, in appropriately shaped and fastened support pieces f the main beam g. As a result of this suspension, the bed can swing freely in all directions.

The support bars c are of a curved shape (Fig. 1) so that when the bed slides longitudinally, one end of the bed goes up while the other end goes down.

The swing bed α is rounded at the bottom and on the sides in order to make the space required for the bed swing as small as possible. Suitable springs α *, protected by sleeves, which connect the bed frame to the ship's deck, etc., protect it from the pendulum movements caused by its own weight. It is advisable to arrange a weaker and a stronger spring in the sleeves during the execution, in such a way that the stronger spring always comes into effect when the spring force of the weaker one is exhausted. \

The support beams d are made of curly or curved leaf springs, which give more or less and thereby weaken sudden bumps or blows on the bed frame. Here, too, it is advisable to provide a stronger spring h , which comes into effect when the spring force of d is no longer sufficient. Suitable rods, etc. can be attached to the bed frame for hanging up curtains, drapes, etc.

To determine resp. A suitable locking device is used to firmly connect the bed frame to a part of the ship so that it can no longer vibrate. In the device shown in Fig. Ι and 2, the bed frame is provided for the above purpose with two approaches α ² , which are shaped so

Claims (4)

that they engage in the locking levers ^ as soon as the latter by means of the cord ^ 1 resp. Handle ^ 3 must be raised. The rocking chair shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 is provided with a locking device which consists of the two curved guides jjl which are carried by the levers k kl. The latter are rotatably mounted in the beams / Z1 attached to the deck. The arm m hanging down from the sling frame lies between the two guides j jl, in whose grooves j'2 it engages when it is locked. The levers k kl are actuated by means of the hand lever η. The latter is wedged onto the pivot pin of the lever k and is connected to the lever kl by means of the shoulder η ', connecting rail «2 and arms ο, so that by moving the hand lever η in one direction or the other, the guides jp are removed from one another or are approached and accordingly release or hold the arm m, whereby the chair is firmly connected to the deck of the ship. The extension n1 of the hand lever is also connected by the rail «3 to the lever o1, which actuates the locking lever ρ to fix the footrest of the chair. As a result of the marked connections, the foot bench is fixed at the same time as the chair. A further embodiment of the locking device is shown in FIGS. Below the chair frame and firmly connected to it, there is a block q made of a suitable material, which is provided with a conical cutout ql; the latter ends in an opening q1. Immediately below the block is a housing r in which a locking bolt r1, which is under the action of a spring r2, slides. If it is released, the spring r2 reaching under the extensions r3 pushes the latter into the slots r4 and thus up the bolt r1, so that it first penetrates into the cutout q 'and finally into the opening q1 and holds the chair in place. A cord s is attached to the lower end of the bolt r1 and leads to the arm f1 of the hand lever A via the rollers s1. By turning this hand lever in one direction or the other, the locking bolt can be pulled down or released so that either the chair can swing freely or is locked. In addition to the central lashing or locking bolt, one or more lateral bolts u can also be arranged, which are then carried by the chair frame and fit into corresponding holes in the deck, etc. For uniform and simultaneous actuation with the central bolt r1, these bolts 11 are connected to the shoulder f2 of the hand lever t by a cord w1, which runs over a roller Zi2 carried by a spring m3. Resilient locking levers w can also be provided which engage in matching cutouts in the bolts u and hold them up. These locking levers are connected to the entire device in such a way that they release the bolts u only after the central bolt r1 has been moved upwards by the spring r2. A removable table top y can be hung on the front of the chair frame (Fig. 6, 7 and 8). To the penetration of the bolt r1 in the cutout ql respectively. q "2, it is advisable to equip the upper end of the bolt r1 with rollers rB (Fig. 9 and 10). Patent claims: 1. A self-acting horizontally tory vibrating bed, chair, etc., whose b by ball joints are connected to the frame α associated support bars c to resilient support bar that is suspended, which means as bolts ee 'in the frame f of the main beams are mounted g, that the swing bed etc. can swing freely and regardless of the movements of the main beam BEZW. the supports maintain their horizontal position. 2. In the case of the swing bed, etc. identified under 1., a device for fixing it, consisting of the guides jj ¹ provided with grooves f ² , which are fastened to the levers kk ^x and can be operated by means of a hand lever η so that they have an arm m of the frame α determine. 3. If the identified under 1. vibrating bed, chair, etc. a modification of the locking device, consisting of a q with opening ² provided conical block q 'in connection with a by hand levers t niederstellbaren Plungers r', which after moving the lever t in the opening q ² pushes in, whereby the upper end of the pin is equipped with rollers r ⁵ to reduce friction. 4. In connection with the locking devices identified under 2. and 3. laterally arranged bolts u and locking lever ρ for locking the foot bench in such an arrangement that the operation of these parts is also activated by turning the hand lever t respectively. η takes place. In addition 3 sheets of drawings.
