Letters Patent No.q100,905, dated March 15, 1870; antedatell .March 4, 187
IMPROVED RBVOLVIN G, ROCKING, AND RECLINING-C'HAIR.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same To all whom it'may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE KNELL, of Moorestown, Burlington county, New Jersey, have invented a Combined Revolving, Rocking, and Reclining-Chair; and I do hereby declare the following to be afnll, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention consists, firstly, of a chair, the seat of which is so connected to the base or plat-form to which the legs are secured that it can be caused to either' re.- volve horizontally or to rock upon the said base; and it consists, secondly, in a foot-board and back, so hinged to the adjusted seat of the chair, and connected together by hinged and rigid rods, that, on depressing the back, the foot-board may be raised, and the chair thus converted into a reclining-couch, all of which wili be fully described hereafter.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to make and apply my invention, I will now proceed to describe the mode ot' constructing and using the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing which forms apart of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a perspectiveJ view of my combined revolving, rocking, and reclining-chair;
Figure 2, a side view, partly in section, showing the chair arranged for rocking; i
Figure 3, a view of the cirair when in use as a rcdining-couch;
Figure 4, a rear view;
Figures 5 and 6, perspective views of portions of the chair in different positions;
Figure 7, a sectional plan view on the line l-Q, fig. 2; and
Figure 8, a sectional view of a modification.
Similar letters refer to similar' parts throughout the several views.
The base of the chair consists of a circularplatform or table, A, supported by legs a a., and having upon its upper surface a rounded or senricircular projection, b, which extends across the center of the base, nearly to its opposite sides. The seat B ofthe chair is supported by this rounded projection b, and by semicircular lugs c c, which are secured to its under side and rest upon the base A, the seat being secured' to the base by means of a cential holt, D, of the latter, which is hinged to a projecting lng, e, of the seat, asbest observed in tic. Y2.
The bolt D is furnished with a nut, f, which is kept suiiiciently loose to permit the seat to revolve freely upon the base, the lugs c c, when the seat is thus rotated, passing around the base, close to the outer edge of the same, and without striking tbe-ends of the'projection b.
It will be observed, on reference to figs. 4, 5, and 6,
that when thc seat is turned to such a position tirar.
the projection b, the seat will be firmly supported by these lugs and projections, and will beprevented from tilting in any direction, but that, when thej-lugs are figs. 2 and (i, the Support ot' the said projection will be removed, and the seat may be inclined backward or forward, or rocked upon the :hase A, the rounded lugs in this case serving as rockers, and the hinged joint at the upper end of the bolt or swivel D permitting such motion 'of the seat.
Instead of connecting -the seat and base together by a hinged bolt, a ball-and-socket joint, suchas is illustrated in iig. S,- might be advantageously ernployed; and instead of having a projection, b, onfthe base, the seat can be furnished with three supporting-lugs, c, instead of two, one of these lugs, c', being adapted to a recess formed in the base, so as to enable the scat to be inclined or rocked, (see fig. 8.)
'lhe upper portion of the chair, which forms the second part of my invention, is constructed as fol lows:v
To the front ot' the seat B is hinged the foot-board F, and to the rear of the said seat the back H of the chair, the latter' being connected, by hinged rods I I, (which serve also as the arms of the chain) to rods J J, which project upward from and are rigidly secured to the foot-board F.
In consequence of this method ot' connecting the above-mentioned parts, a pressure gainst the back of the chair will depress the saure, an at the same time elevate the foot-board, so as to convert the chair immediately into a reclining-couclr, such as is shown in tig. 3; and, in order to return the several parts to their' original positions, it is only necessary to relieve thc pressure upon the back, and to then depress the footboard. t
If desired, devices may be applied to the chair for the purpose of securing the several parts, after adjustment, to either an inclined or uprigirt position.
An adj ustablc table or book-rest, such as shown in tig, 1, may also be attached to the chair, if desired.
Although-I prefer that the chair should be constructed as above described, that is, for reclining, rocking, and revolving, yet it will be evident that, in some cases, the reclining devices may be dispensed with, and the sea-tof the clrairfurnished with a rigid back, wlile in other-instances itmay bc desirable to have merely a. reli'ningchair, in which case the seat can be secured directly to the legs.
. I claim as'- my invention and desire to secure by Letters'Patenty its lugs o c shall be at right angles, cr thereabouts, to
brought on line with the projection b, as illustrated inl :onpas 1. flhe base A with its elongated projection b -in combination with the revolving 'adjustable sent B and combination with the revolving adiustable seat B and its lugs c c c', as described.
. In testimony whereof I Ahave signed my name to 2. The combination, with-the said seat, base, rib, and this specification in the presence of two subscribing lugs, of :t swivel-bolt, D, as specified. witnesses.
3. The adjustable back' H and foot-board F, connected by rods I J, when arranged on 'an adjustable Witnesses: seat, B, as set forth. v E. H. BAILEY,
4. The base A having a. recessiu its upper face, in l HARRY SMITH.
its lugs c c, substantially as described.
GEORGE KNELL.
