JOSEPH AE. LORD, OF QUINCY, ILLINOIS.
Leners Patent No. 112,158, dated rbruary 21s, 1871.
IMPROVEMENT IN SPRING BED-BIOTTOMS.. I
The- Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the saule.
To all whom it may concern.:
Be vknown that I, JOSEPH E. LORD, of the city of Quincy, in the countyof Adams and State of lllinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Spring Bed-Bottoms, of which the following is a specication, reference being had to the accolnpanying drawing.
l Nature and Objects of the Invention.
The invention relates tovthatclass of metal-spring bed-bottoms consisting of lattice or basket-work top and bottom-frames, having metal springs between and connecting the same. f v
The object ot' the .invention is to prevent the dis-l General Description.
A in the accompanying drawing represents the longitudinal slats or straps, which are secured at each end to the upper surface of the frame O. The slats next the frame on each sidepass under, and the remaining slats alternately over and under the' alternate transverse slats or straps B. A
By this arrangement the slats are prevented from separating, the structure of the frame is rendered more compact, and mutual support and elasticity given to all the slats thereof.
'lhe lower frame is similarly constructed to the up- The springs D, o f common pattern, connect the np per and lower frames, and are secured in the following manner .to the slats thereof:
1n the first row of springs on each side, the upper curve of the spring rises from below the longitudinal slat on the upper frame, passes over the adjacent transverse slat near its junction with t-he rim or frame C, thence under the longitudinal slat, and tinally above the transverse slat, in which, at a. proper dis-v tance from the said longitudinal slat, an aperture is provided, through which the eudbf the material composing the spring is passed and clamped or otherwise secured on the under side of the slat, the vertical center of the spring being directly under the point where the slats cross.
vThe springs at each end of the bed-bottom are simr ilarly arranged, save that they are secured to the longitudinal slats.'
The springs in` the rows between the end and side rows of springs are secured alternately in the transverse and longitudinalslats, from side to side. When in the former, the upper curve ofthe spring rises from below the longitudinal slat, 'passes over the adjacent transverse slat, thence on the opposite side under the longitudinal slat, and is finally secured as aforesaid.
When in the latter, the arrangement of the spring is 'vico corsa.
The springs aresecnred in thesame manner to both upper and'lower't'rames.l
In thesaid patent the bed-bottom consists of slats, the longitudinal ones being laid upon and over the transverse, the former being secured to one and the .latter to the other side of the rim or frame (l. Also,
in said spring bed-bottom the springs are all secured to the transverse slats.
My improvement consists herein- First, the arrangement of the slats, alternately passing over and under alternate slats.`
Second, in the method of securing the springs alternately to the longitudinal and transverse slats.
The upper and lower surfaces of the bed-bottom, the inner portions of the frames, as well as the springs, are thoroughly `cam-'ered with copal, shellac, or other hard-faced varnish, to prevent the ticking of the snperposed mattress or bed adhering to the bed-bottom, to prevent-the same from rust, and to seal the apertures therein against vermin. V r
Claim.
109,445, and dated November 22, 1870; but
AWhat I do claimas my invention, and desire to secure by Let-ters Patent, is- A The arrangement ot' the longitudinabslats-A and the transverse slats B, supported at their ends by and secured to the exterior surface of the frames C and passing alternately over and under each other-this arrangement in combination with the arrangement 0i' the springs D, secured at each extremity by passing it through an aperture in and clamping it to the under side of alternate longitudinal and transverse slats, substantially as shown and described.
In testiony that I claim the foregoing improvements `in spring bed-bottoms I have hereuntoset my hand and seal this 3d day ot' January, 1871.
Witnesses: JOSEPH E; LORD. [11. 5.]
