THOMAS H. PARRY, OF INDIANALPOLIS, INDIANA, ASSIGNOR TO PARRY MANUFAC- TURING COMPANY, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA, A CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
VEHICLE SEAT-FASTENER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 10, 1915.
I Application filed September 12, 1914. Serial No. 861,338.
To. all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THoMAs II. PARRY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the count of llIarion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vehicle Seat- Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is so to secure vehicle seats to the bodies of the vehicle that they may be readily removed for greater compactness in shipment, and afterward easily and quickly fastened to the bodies in position for use by the dealers or users who generally are not skilled workmen.
The object also is to provide a better br'aced, stronger and more durable seat-support and body-connection, which is particularly desirable for such top-vehicles as have their tops secured to and supported by the seats.
I accomplish the above, and other objects which will hereinafter appear, by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a top plan view of a piano-box body witha seat attached thereto in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical section on the line 22 of Fig. 1, looking toward the rear end of the body, and Fig. 3 is a fragment in vertical longitudinal section on the line 33 of Figs. 1 and 2.
Like characters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several viewsof the drawing. o
The sills 4, floor 5 supported thereby, and panels 6 are all of usual and well known construction.
7 are the seat risers, 8 the bottom of the seat which has an opening through it into the usual curtain-box below the seat. This box comprises a bottom 9, sides 10 and ends 11. At each corner of the box, extending through it from the bottom 8 of the seat to and resting upon the corresponding sills 4, are the posts 12.
The bottom 8 of the seat rests upon and is supported by the risers 7 in conjunction with the sides 10 and ends 11 of the curtainbox and posts 12, the ends of the posts being preferably notched to form shoulders upon which the lower edges of the sides of the curtain-box are more solidly supported.
My invention lies primarily in the means for attaching the seat-bottom 8 to its abovenamed supports. This comprises metal straps 13, there being one for each of the four posts 12 extending vertically against the post from sill & to the curtain-box, in the manner'shown, and thence obliquely and intal members are secured, the lower one to the sill and the upper one to the seat-bottom.
The bolts 16 are connected in pairs, at each end of the seat, by metal straps 18, through which the bolts pass securely fastening the ends of the straps to their respective longitudinal members 19 and 20 of said seat-bottom. The latter is framed with said a longitudinal members 19 and 20 and transverse end members 21. The straps 18 connect the top ends of the vertical straps 13, through bolts 16, to keep the latter from spreading, and they also prevent the opening up of the joints between the members 19 and 20 and ends 21 of the seat-bottom.
In knocking the job down for shipment or storage, the seat is detached by removing the bolts 16, and the assembly and attachment of the seat afterward only requires the replacing of the bolts, which is within the accomplishment of any novice.
By forming the upper ends of the straps 13 inwardly oblique, as shown and described, the seat is better braced against end strains and vibrations than if the straps were straight, and by contact of the outer edges of the straps against the panels 6 of the body the stresses coming through the oblique ends are more efiectually resisted, rendering the seat attachment correspondingly stronger and more durable, and better able to resist the strain of rough roads and wind pressure, particularly in those vehicles having tops attached to the seat.
While I have described my invention with more or less minuteness as regards details of construction and arrangement and as being embodied in certain precise forms, I do not desire to be limited thereto unduly or any I at one end to the sill and extending thence upwardly in contact With its adjacent post and panel and thence inwardly beginning approximately at the bottom of the curtainbox obliquely in contact With said curtainbox and thence outwardly forming horizontal ends which contact With the bottom of the seat, metal straps extending transversely of and resting upon the seat-bottom adjacent each end of the latter, and bolts passing through the metal straps the seat-bottom and said horizontal ends.
In Witness whereof, I, have hereunto set my hand and seal at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 9th day of September, A. D. one thousand nine hundred and fourteen.
