HAMMOOK-STAND.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 8, 1913.
Application filed October 9, 1911. Serial No. 653,713.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Gnoncn F. Srsnownn, a citizen of the United States, residing at EastOrange, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hammock- Stands, the following being a full, clear, and exact disclosure of the one form of my invention which I at present deemipreferable.
For a detailed description of the present form of my invention, reference may be had to the following specification and to the accompanyin drawing forming a part thereof, in whic Figure 1 is a side elevation of my device, Fig. 2 is an end elevation thereof, and Fig. 3 illustrates the folding of the stand.
My invention relates to a stand or frame for supporting a hammock which can be taken down and folded up without resort to bolts and nuts or other fastening means.
Referring to the drawings 0 represents a ridge pole from which the hammock S is suspended by hooks R At each end the pole C is supportedby a pair of spreading legs A and B, which are each secured to the ridge pole by a linkD pivoted at one.
end to the pole and at the other end to one of the legs. The legs A and B are also coupled to each other by a collapsible spreader, such as the links F and G projecting'from A and'B respectively and pivoted to each other at their ends. At each end of the ridge pole is a two-way socket E having diverging cylindrical recesses into which the upper ends of legs A and B fit abutting against a stop E at the top of each recess. A portion of the wall of each recess is cut away to form a semi-cylindrical portion. At their lower ends the legs A and B are connected by a base rod H formed of angle iron and permanently pivoted to legA while leg B engages with it by means of :1. lug K which enters a notch M in the vertical side of the an 1e iron. This rod serves as a brace and ocks the upper ends of the legs in the sockets.
To fold up the stand, the le B is disengaged from base rod H and the latter turned up parallel with the leg A as shown in Fig. 3. This permits the le s to be disengaged from socket E when t ey may be folded up parallel to and against the ridge pole C by means of links D and the pivoted connection between the legs at F G. When it is desired to use the stand, the legs are swung outwardly on links D, and their ends brought opposite the semi-cylindrical portions of recesses E. By spreading the links F and G, the legs are brought into alinement with the dQGPBIKPOIlZlOIlS of said recesses and can then be readily inserted therein. After the legs have been inserted therein, the brace H is secured to lo B by lug M thereby firml locking the legs in the sockets. It will be readily understood that byv reason of the divergin relation of the sockets in the member that a wedge shaped seat is formed for the legs so that it is absolutely impossible to separate the ridge pole and legs when the links F and G are spread and the brace H is connected to leg B. It will therefore be seen that when the parts are in assembled relation a very rigid frame is secured and one in which the parts cannot be accidentally separated.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A foldin hammock stand comprising a straight ri ge pole, a two 'way socket member secured at each end thereof, the sockets of said members diverging downwardly and each having the lower end of the outer portion thereof cut away, two spaced-apart legs at each end of said ridge pole and adapted to enter said sockets, links connecting each pair of legs for positioning them in the cutaway ortion of said sockets, links connecting said legs with the ridge pole, and a bar secured to the lower ends of said legs for holding the same in spread relation, said bar cooperating with said sockets to rigidly hold said legs in spaced relation.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand, before two subscribing witnesses, this third day of October, 1911.
GEORGE F. SISBOWER.
