Description

UNITED STATES ILLIAM VINSTON SLOAN, OF JEFFERSON, TEXAS.
IMPROVEMENT IN APPARATUS FOR PHOTOGRAPHING CHILDREN.
Speeication forming; part ol' Letters Patent No. 116,765, dated July 4, 1371.
To all whom 'it may concern.:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM WiNs'roN SLOAN, of Jefferson, in the county of Marion and State ot Texas, have invented an Improvement in Machines tor takin g Photo graphs, Ambrotypes, 85e., of Small Children, ot' which the following is a full, clear, and exact descrilition, reference being` had to the accompanying' drawingmaking apart ot this speciiication,l in which the ligure is a perspective view ot invention.
The object of my invention is to overcome the difficulty at present experienced by all photographers in taking,` small children; and my device consists in swinging the child and the camera in such a manner that, while they both move, the relative position of the two will remain during the time thc picture is being taken. Actual experiment has demonstrated the fact that, while the swinging` motion will please the child and keep it steadily in its relative position to the instrument, the camera will do its work just as faithfully as it' at rest.
In order to enable others to understand and use my invention, I will proceed to describe the manner in )vhich I have carried it out.
A is a frame, made ot' any suitable material, in which is suspended the swing B by the cords a. b. On the one end ot this swing is secured the seat or chair C, having the adjustable back piece c to support and steady the head ot' the child, while at the opposite end otA the swing is secured the rest D, on which to place the camera in front of the child. Vhen the instrument is once adjusted it is evident the swing' may be put in motion without ali'eeting the relative po sit-ion otl thc instrument and the child, while a goed expression ot' the child is secured.
Having,` thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters latent, is
The swing' B, incombination with the seat C .and rest l), substantially as and tor the purpose set forth.
NVILLIAM lVINSTON SLOAN.
