The Schedule'eferred to in these Lettera Patent and making part of the same.
' To alli/whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM- Mons'rATI,'of New York, 4in the county and State of New York, have inrented certain` Improvements in Folding Chairs, ofv which `the following is a specification.
4My lnveutlonconsists in certain improvement-s in folding chairs for which Letters Patent of the United' States have been granted, on the 29th day of J une, 1869, tofGharles A. Wiedemann, of New York, and relates to the `arrangements.of feet or.. legs in such a manner that t-he height of the chair, when used as a chair, maybe considerably reduced,.and when converted Into a reclining-chair or sofa the same may be raised higher from the ground or fioor, making thereby a. more comfortable and convenient article of furniture.
chair embody-ing my invention. f
-Figure II represents a similar view of the. same,
u'hencoin-'erted into a reclining-chair.
Similar letters represent corresponding parts.
Figure I represent-s a side View, in perspective, of a ,A A is the seat of the chair, hinged at its front edge 'to the upper ends of the legs GO,so that it may he turned forward when desirable. p
B and C are the main legs, crossing each other, and
'pivoted together where they cross` by pivots n The legs B extend above the seat, with any desired inch-- `nation,to form the `back of the chair.
` .Theouter edgesof the rear, portion of the seat are provided withhooks or notches for locking with or over studs a a, attached to the legs B.
The space between thelegs and back-pieces B isl -lledwith canvas, cloth,or any other material, or may be cushioned along its' entire length or nearly so.
ThelseatzA is covered or cushioned upon its upper and under side, as, v by theinversion of the seat,
, the lowerl surface is @brought into use while the chair is in its reclining position.
' .Near the' upper part of the legs B, arms E E are 'pivoted, by pivots `fm, and to the upper part of the seat 4. A, at the "sides,gproj ections or standsl) are 'irmly at'- tached, upon which the forward parts of the arms E rest when the chairis folded to form an easy-chaines represented in VFi". I. Thesev stands D enter suitable recesses in the arms E, and-assist in holding the chair firm together.
'To the underside, nea-1" the front of the legs vC), projections or legs F are firmly attached, andi similar `projectionsor legs G are` attached to the under side vAtithe rear portion, on the under side of the seat A,a board, J, is hinged,l extending nearly the whole width ofthe seat, capable of `being laid flat against I fthe under side of saidgseatfor of-being raised to stand clining-chair.
To convert this easy-chair in to a reclining-chair, the
studs a are disengaged from the hooks -in the ends of the seat (L hy slight-ly elevating that portion of the' seat, and -the arms E are turned upwLu'd,vclear of the stands D, when the legs B and C are allowed to turn upon-their pivots n, causing the back of the chair to recline until the same rests upon the legs G and F.
The seat A is then turned over ou its hinges until it rests upon thestands D, forming now thelegs for that part. The arms E are then moved downward until the ends of the same lock' into projections or pins :12, attached tothe legs C, and the foot-board J turned- 'up\vard,'when the chair is converted into a recliningchair or sofa, as represented in Fig. II.
rBythe arrangement of these legs, D, F, and G, the height of the reclining-chair may be made as much as may be desired, and found most convenient, while, when converted into an easyfch'air, the same inay'be constructed of any height most comfortable, as the shape or form of the 'legs B and C does not regulate the height of the reclining-chair, vas is the ease in the invention patented by Charles AnWiedemann. And by the arrangement of' the hinged arms E, combined either with the stands D or with the pins x, I obtain an extra fastening and comfortable arms, either when used as an easy-chair or when converted into a re- I do not claim hinging the seat A to the legs C, capable of either a folding or extendingmotion, 'and provided with hooks or notches, in combination vwith the legs and back-pieces B and studs a,as described and patentcd'by Charles A. Wiedemann in his Letters Patent-No. 92,133', but
What I claim as `my invention, and desire to vseeure byiLetters Patent, is-
-1-. The combination'of `the legs B C and F G and arms E with the seat A, provided with the legs orI `stands D, when constructed and arranged as herein described and for the purpose specified.
2. In combination with the above, thefoot-board J, as herein described. s
