BATBING-CR.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented J uly 16, 1.912.
Application tiled May 29, 1911. Serial No. 680,085.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN BARKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oceanpark, in the' county of Los Angeles and State of California., have invented 4new and useful Improvements in Bathing-Cars, of which the following is a specic-ation.
This invention yrelates to a device of :the class generally known as a adapted for use in surf bathing; and the invention consist-s particularly in certain `improvements of arrangement and design of the different parts to provide a car of greater capacity, more utility and neater appearance than those heretofore used.
4In my new car I have provided a central room or dressing parlor in which are lof cated the different articles of furniture necessary for the toilet; and I have provided four separate. and distinct dressing rooms,v
one in each corner of the car, which may be shut olf and used privately from the rest of the car. In each of these dressing rooms there is a door leading to the outside of the car and a door leading to the interior dressing parlor; and therev are means pro-vided for putting away the wet garments and for subsequently easily removing them from the car wit-houtI the attendant entering the same. This means is provided in a small locker having an inclined bottom, which locker is placed below a seat extending across one end of each dressing room; vand under each of these seats is located one of the four supporting wheels of the car. The supporting wheels extend up into the body of the car instead of being ent-irely outside the body as has heretofore been the case, and this feature lends a pleasing and artistic appearance to the outside of the vcar which is not otherwise attained.
In the accompanying drawings I have shown a preferred form of my invention, in which drawings:
Figure 1 is a. sectional plan showing the interior arrangement of a car of my design. Fig. 2 is a side elevat-ion, parts .being broken away. Fig. 3 is a partial end elevation of the car. Fig. 4 is a sectional detail taken on line 4--4 of Fig. 1.
In the drawings 5 designates a Hoor frame on which floor 6 is'mounted. Floor 6 is of suiiicientsize to accommodate the arrangements about to be described and may be built in any desired manner. Upon this bathing car floor a superstructure 7 is fmounted, the superstructure occupying the central portion of the door and leaving platforms 8 at either end. From these platforms steps 9 lead down to the surface on which the structure stands; or the steps may be thrown upWardly'aga-inst the end ofthe superstructure as is 'shown at the left hand in Fig. 2. The whole structure is supported by means' of four wheelslO mounted on axles 11 and so arranged that they are beneath superstructure 7 and ,extend up into it as is clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The wheels 'are situated at the 4'corners of the structure and extend up into the interior where they are covered by certain structures to be hereinafter explained. It will be seen lthat this arrangement provides a neat outer appearance and substantially reduces the weight of the car from what it would be if wheels 10 were placed outside the structure.
Superstructure 7 forms a housing for several interior rooms. At each corner a dressing room 15 is partitioned olf from the rest of the interior and from the adjacent dressing room by means of partitions 16 and 17 and a door 18 leads from platform 8 at the end ofthe structurev into veach of these rooms. A second doorway 19 is arranged in each of the rooms opposite doors 18 and' may be closed by a curtain or by any other suit-able closure. Doorways 19 lead to a central dressing parlor 20 of considerable size. And this dressing parlor is lighted by windows 21, and each of the dressing rooms is lighted by a-window 22.
Each ofthe dressing rooms is provided with a seat 30 e'xtendingacross one end and in one end of this seat a small hinged lifting door 31 is placed. In each corner of dressing parlor 20 are small seats 32 which form,
in effect, a continuation of seat 30. Seats Y 30 and 32 cover wheels 1.0 where they project up into the structure, this being most clearly shown in Fig. 2. Below door 31 an inclined Y vbottoni 33 is arranged, a triangular bin be- J vided a Wash-stand or basin and a dressing table 36. These articles provide for the convenience of the users of my car; in fact, every possible convenience is aiorded the bather. He may enter the car While standing on the beach, and while he is preparing for the bath his car Will be hauled outinto the surf. I-Ie may then emerge from the car through the doors on the side toWard'the surf; and, having returned to the car, he can easily dispose of his wet garments and dress again'in dry and comfortable sur roundings. Any Water which may be carried into the car by the bather will escape through apertures 40 provided in the floor of each dressing room. These apertures are protected by flaps 41 Which normally hang as is shown in Fig. 4; but should the surf rise .beneath the aps and tend to -enter apertures 40, the flaps Will rise and tightly close the apertures and prevent the entry of Water.
Having described my invention, I claim:
l. A bathing car, comprising a structure substantially rectangular in form, Wheel supports for the structure, the Wheels being four in number and arranged beneath the structure and projecting partially up intov it, partitions Within the structure and dividing its interior into four dressing rooms, one
at each corner of the structure, and into a structure and projecting partially up into it` t partitions within the structure and dividing its interior into t'onr dressing rooms, one at.
each corner ot' the structure, and into a dressing parlor extending across the structure, and a seat arranged in each corner of the structure and across one end of each dressing rooni and projecting into a corner of the dressing parlor, the said seats covering the portions of the Wheels which project up into the structure.
In Witness that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto subscribed my name this 20th day of May, 1911.
