MAHLON WARNE, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
Letters Patent No. 108,308, dated October 11, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN HEAD-RESTS.
IBhe Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and part of the same.
mOn-
Nature and Object of the Invention.`
My invention consists of an improvement in headrest, adapted especially for the use of railroad-passengers on night-trains, and consists in constructing the rest, as fully described hereafter, so that it may be readily divided into sections, which, when packedv together, occupy but little space, the rest being rendered more portable and better adapted for transportation than those made in the usual manner.
.Description of thc'Accompang/ing Drawing. Figure 1 is a perspective view, illustrating the method of using my improved head-rest;
Figure 2, an enlarged perspective view of the rest; and' Figures 3 and 4, enlarged views of the jointed rods by which the rest is supported.
General Description.
Ony reference to fig. 1, A represents the head-rest proper, which consists of a padded band of leather,
, cloth, or other-suitable material, tapering toward both vends where button-holes a a are formed to receive the of a shape to tit comfortably against the shoulder of the wearer, as shown.
rlhe method of using the head-rest is illustrated so elearly in g. l as to need no minute description.
The portion :c of the band C is passed around the l back of the wearer, the rods placed against the shoulders in front, and the back of thehead adapted to the rest, as shown.
The angle of the rods, and, consequently, the position of the rest, will depend upon the length of the strap C, but the Latter can be adjusted as required by means of the buckle t'.
That port-ion oi' the strap which passes around the front ot' the body is not essential, and may be dispensed with.
The head-rest, as above described, is intended principally for the use of railway-passengers on nighttrains, and will enable the head to be comfortably supported above the back of' the seat, while the body is in an easy reclining position, the cramped and unco1nfol'table positions generallyassumed in endeavorillg to rest the head upon the back of the seat being thus avoided.
It will bc seen that, when not desired for use, the rods may be divided into sections, the hand a detached, and the whole packed into a small space.
Cla-im.
A head-rest, consisting of rods ,B B, band A, and strap c', when the said band is detachable from the rods, and each of the latter consists of two sections,
lunited by a detachable coupling, nt, as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to A this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
