GEORGE WETTERI-IOLD, OF WICI-IITA, KANSAS.
BED-SPRING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. as, 1915.
Application filed January 3, 1914. Serial No. 810,150.
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I, GEORGE VETTERHOLD, a resident of l/Vichita, in the county of Sedgwick and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bed-Springs; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,'such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to bed-springs and has for its object to produce a device of this character which will be simple of construction, efficient in operation, and one in which the individual springs will be securely connected with the bottom frame work and will be firmly braced and joined together at their to s.
Another object is to provide means by which the springs are joined together in such a manner that each spring is substantially independent of the others, and when the device is being handled, the said springs will not become disconnected. 7
To these ends, the invention comprises the novel details of construction and combination of parts more fully hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a top plan view of a portion of a bed-spring constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of a spring taken on the line of the guy-wire 6. Fig. 3 an enlarged detail view of a section of the spring, and connecting arm, looking from the under side.
Referring to the drawings, 1 and 2 indicate respectively the main top and bottom frames which are composed, preferably, of wire and are suitably spaced one above .the other. The bottom frame, 2, is provided with a series of longitudinal guy-wires 8-3, which are connected to the bottom frame and 3 indicates transverse guy-wires also connected to said frame. These wires at their point of intersection have secured to them the lower coils of the individual springs 4 of the fabric.
Inasmuch as the lower ends of all of the individual springs are attached to the bottom frame of the structure in a similar manner, I will describe the connection of but one in detail in which the wire composing the coil is at the beginning of the formation, bent at right angles as at 13, after which the wire is coiled to compose the spring, each whirl being larger as it progresses upward, the last whirl being considerably larger than its predecessor and is given a coil around said predecessor as at 9, and thence extending laterally fromsaid coil, formingan arm long enough to connect with the adjacent spring and on the free end of said arm is formed substantially an S. It is to be noted the coil 8 is positioned a considerable distance from the preceding coil, but is on a plane therewith, so that said coil 8 more fullly fills the intervening space between the 001 s.
When the springs are located on the lower guy-wires, they are placed thereon as seen in Fig. 1, the free end of the coil resting on one wire and underneath the other wire and the bend 10 prevents misplacement. The
While the present embodiment of the invention seems preferable at this time, still I do not desire to limit myself to the structural details defined, but reserve the right to effect such changes and modifications and variations as may be comprehended within the scope of the protection prayed.
I claim 1. In a bed-spring, upper. and lower frames havingupper and lower guy-wires connected thereto, springs mounted upon said lower wires, guy-wires positioned under the two top coils of said springs, said coils being on substantially the same plane and resting upon said wires, the outer of said coils being eccentric to the axis of said spring and diametrically opposite, lies contiguous to one of said inner coils and is coiled around said inner coil and extends laterally to form a connection with the ad- The the free end thereof to bind the said guy wire to the coil of said spring.
2. In a bed-spring, upper and lower frames having guy-wires, springs mounted upon said wires at their junction, the lower coil of said springs being beneath one wire and above the other wire, and an upward bend on the free end of said coil to prevent displacement of said coil, guy-wires upon the upper frame, said wires provided with an upward bend, giving said wire two different planes, said Wires passing beneath the two upper coils of the springs, said coils being substantially in the same plane, and resting upon said guy-wire, the outer coil being eccentric to the axis of the lower coil,
the inner of said coils having a downward bend adjacent the upper bend of the aforesaid guy-wire and diametrically opposite said bends the outer coil is bent around the adjacent inner coil, forming an arm extending laterally to the adjacent spring, passing over the outer coil, and means at its terminal to connect the said arm with the said inner coil and guy-wire as described.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE WETTERHOLD.
