SUPPQRT FOR BUGS TO BE CLEANED.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed. August 9, 1913.
Patented July 14, 1914.
semi No. 783,898.
To all 'whom t may concern Be it known that 1, FRANK M. ARNOLD, a`
vention, such as will enable others skilledy in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to a new and useful support for rugs to be cleaned.
An object of the invention is to provide a carpet support having longitudinally arranged carpet supporting cords tot hold a rug level and stable, yet to yield incident to the blows of a carpet beater.
Cne of the features of the invention is the provision of two rectangular frames arranged to intersect one another and pivoted at their intersection, whereby they may be arranged as shown in Figure 1, with the tie cords or ropes stretched as illustrated, there being means connecting the adjacent opposite ends of said rectangular frames, whereby the tie cords may be stretched, and the tension thereof regulated.
Another feature of the invention is to pivot the two rectangular frames in such wise as to permit them to collapse when not in use.
In practical fields it may be found neces sary to subject the details of construction to alterations, to which the patentee is en' titled, provided the alterations fall within the scope of what is claimed.
The invention comprises further features and combinations of parts, as hereinafter set forth, shown in the drawings and claimed.
1n the drawings z-Fig 1 is a view 1n perspective, showing` the construction of the proved rug support. Fig. 2 is a similar viewy showing a rug thereon to be beaten. Fig. 3 is a view showing the support collapsed, so as to be placed to one side or stored when not in use or for shipping. Fig. t is an enlarged detail view of one corner of one of the frames.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 and 2 designate two rectangular frames, arranged to intersect one another and pivoted at 3 at their intersections, by means of the bolts 4.
Each frame comprises the elongated bars 5 and the transverse bars 6, 7, and 8, screwed together as shown at 9. Under the ends of the bars 6 and screwed thereto as shown at 10 are blocks 11, in order to brace the bars 5 and G'relative to one another. When the frames are arranged as shown in Fig. 2`the bars 8 efficiently reinforce the lower opposite ends of the bars 5, which lower opposite ends constitute legs. The heads 11a of the frames at the corners are provided with screw hooks 12 to receive the rings 13, towhich rings ropes 14 are connected. rIhese ropes 14C are arranged to form a loop 15 which engage the eyes 16 of the legs of the frames. A knot 17 is formed in the end of one of the strands' of each loop to hold a block 18 in place, while the other strand of each loop passes through an aperture in said block. When the frames are arranged as shown in 2 it will be seen that the blocks may be easily adjusted, and in such wise as to regulate the tension of the -tie cords or ropes 19, which are arranged longitudinally and through the eyes 20 of the bars 6 as shown. These tie' cords or ropes are constructed of a single length of rope, passing in and out of the eyes of the bars 6 with each end attached or iXed at 21 to one corner of the head of each frame.
It will be observed that the cords or ropes 19 may be stretched` by adjusting the blocks 18, so that the slack in said ropes will be hardly perceptible, yet as the carpet beater comes in contact with the rug the ropes will yield. By arranging the frame Windward, the dirt and dust will pass from under the support, incident to the blows from a carpet beater.
The invention having been set forth, what is claimed as new and useful is In combination, la pair 0f rectangular frames arranged to intersect one another and pivoted together attheir intersection, each frame comprising a head portion including a transversely arranged bar and having a series of eyes and legs formed by the side bars of each frame, a single length of rope passing back and forth through the eyes In testimony whereof I have signed my from one head to the other and arranged naine to this specification in the presence of longitudinally with each end Xed to one end two subscribing witnesses.
