HAMMOCK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 25,1913.
Application filed January 26, 1912.. Serial No. 673,515.
Be it known that I, BARNARD B. SnvAen, a citizen of the United States, residlng at New Haven, in the county of New Haven 'and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hammocks, ofwhich the folllowing is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in hammocks, referring particularly 'to that type known as a ships hammock, and has for its object, among other things, to provide means, whereby the cush ion may. be entirely covered when desired, so as to keep the same dry and without resorting to the usual means of raising the entire hammock to a point above the normal level of the cushion. This latter operation is usually accomplished by a rope or a block and falls, both of which are cumbersome ts operate and unsightly in appearance. 4
A To these, and other ends, my invention consists in the hammock, having cer-' tain, details of construction and combinations' of parts, as will be hereinafter 'de-- scribed, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings," in which like numerals of reference designate like parts in the several figures: Figure l is a view of my improved hammock complete; Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view thereof upon line AB of Fig. 1 {and Fig. 3 is a similar view upon line CD of Fig. 1. My invention is preferably applied to a ships hammock of the ordinary construction, wherein the frame 1, supporting a cushion 2 is suspended by a. canvas 3, the opposite ends thereof, having cords or chains 4 therein, which are joined to thesuspension rings 5. That portion of the canvas 3 that is at right angles to the cushion 2, is known as the suspension end, and is herein designated by the numeral 6. Se-
cured upon the inside of the suspension endportion, at the bottom 8 thereof, is the supplemental end strip 7, that is attachedto the suspension end 6- at its upper end by a plurality of separable fastenin devices 9. This. supplemental end strip, w en in its up or .openposition, as shown in Figs. .1 and 30f the drawings," constitutes a convenient receptacle for magazines or papers, generally described as a magazine rack. To prov de such rack, the supplementalend strips are of less height than the suspension ends for a portion of their Widths, as clearly shown in Fig. 1, the rear extension of the supplemental end strip being maintained in the vertical position in contact with the suspension end 6 as shown in Fig. 1 when desirable by any ordinary means, as a snap button or the like, not shown in the drawings.
Upon the rear side of the cushion, and secured thereto at its lower end, is the wind shield 10, within which is inserted the rod 11, and the flap portion 12, beyond the rod 11, is provided near its outer edge with a plurality of fastening devices 13. The wind shield is secured at each end to the suspension end portions 6 by one or more fastening devices 14. When in its up position, as shown in the drawings, the rod 11 is adjacent to'the top of the suspension end portions 6, and the flap 12 is lying loose upon the outside thereof. The rodll is designed to pre- I vent the sagging of the wind shield, and is only of sufiicient strength to accomplish'this result. 7 i
It is desirable and convenient sometimes to make the windshield and the supplemental end strip 7 of a single piece ofmaterial, as shown in the drawings, but the supplemental end strips may be made separate ifdesired and secured to the wind shield,
either by stitchingor by means of fastening devices.
I have not shown in detail the particular type of 'fasteningdevice that'is used'with my invention, as it is no part thereof, and
because any one of many different types of fastening devices may be used equally as well. n
In the drawings the hammockis shown when in its positionv ready for use, with the wind shield and supplemental end strips up and the 'cushion uncovered. To cover the cushion and prevent the ,samefrom being wet, either in a storm or at night by the j dews, the supplemental end strips 7 are first unfastened at their upper ends and folded down onto the top of the cushion, as shown by the broken lines in Fig. -3,after which the wind shield is nnfastened at its ends from the suspension -end portions 6, and
folded over the top of the cushion and the supplemental end strips 7,-and secured by the engagement of the fasteners 13 upon the flap 12 with the fasteners 15, in which posit1on all of the parts are covered and the J wind shieldand flap occupy the position in relation to the cushion, shown by the broken lines in Fig. 2. By having the supplemental end strips 7 connected with the ends of the wind shield, it is impossible to turn down the wind shield without at the same time turning down the supplement-a1 end strips, so that the same will not be left in their up r position through inadvertence -or mistake.
The water that strikes the top of the wind shield when in its down position is shed therefrom on either side thereof, and such Water as is shed toward the ends, strikes the suspension end portion 6 upon the inside thereof, runs down between the supple mental end strip 7 and the suspension end 6, and escapes from the pocket therein through the plurality of gromets 16, secured in the suspension end portion 6 adjacent to the bottom thereof (see Fig. 3). it
There are minor changes and alterations that can be made within my invention, and I would therefore have it understood that I do not limit myself to the exact construction herein shown and described, but claim all that falls fairly within the spirit and scope of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I claimas new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A hammock including a seating, suspension ends attached thereto, supplemental end strips secured to the suspension ends, and a wind shield secured to said seating,
said supplemental end strips and wind shield being adapted to be folded down upon the seating to cover the latter.
2. A hammock including a seating, suspension ends attached thereto, supplemental 'end strips secured to the suspension ends, and a wind shield secured to said seating,-
being adapted tobe folded down upon the seating to cover the latter, the suspension ends being formed with outlet openings immediately above the juncture of the supplemental end strips therewith.
4. A hammock including a seating, suspension ends attached thereto, supplemental end strips secured to the suspension ends, and a wind shield secured to said seating,
said supplemental end strips and wind shield being adapted to be folded down upon the seating to cover the latter, means for removably securing the wind shield to the suspension ends, and .means for removably securing the upper ends of the supplemental end'strips to the suspension ends.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
