THOMAS M. FREEBLE, OF ROCHESTER, AND CARL SCI-IUSTER, OF PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA.
Application filed August 12, 1911.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, THOMAS M. Fnnmsnn, of Rochester, in the county of Beaver and State of Pennsylvania, and CARL Soi-iu's'rnu, of Pittsburgh, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in P0rch- Swings, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawil'igs, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1. is a front elevation of a swing embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional View of the swing. Fig. 3 is an end View showing the swing frame in folded position.
Our invention has relation to porch swings; and is designed to provide a swing of this character, which will be light, which can be cheaply manufactured and which, when not in use, can be folded in compact position; and which has other features of advantage and novelty, as will hereinafter appear.
Referring to the drawings, in which we have shown one form of our invention, the reference character 18 designates the front bar of a seat frame, 24 the rear bar, and 22 the end bars.
19 designates a back frame, and 20 the end frames or arm sections.
The end frames are provided with eyemembers 21 at their lower ends which pivotally engage the end bars 22 of the seat frame. The lower ends of the back member are provided with eye-members 23 which pivotally engage the rear bar .24: of the seat frame, and which eye-members are offset in order to permit the back to be folded over the arm members, as illustrated in Fig. 3. Connected to the arm members 20. are the supporting chains 17, which are connected at their upper ends to hooks 11 pivoted to eye- bolts 12, and 25 is a back supporting chain which we have shown connected to the upper bar of the back and tothe rear suspension chains. These supporting chains 28 may be connected so as to permit the back to be adjusted at different inclinations.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Specification of Letters Patent.
reason of its Patented July 25, was.
Serial N 0. 643,768.
The arm members and back member are connected to the seat in such a way that the arm members can be folded down upon the seat, and the back member then folded down upon the arms, as illustrated in Fig. 3, so that they will occupy very little space.
It will be obvious that our invention is susceptible of various changes in the details of construction, and hence we do not wish to be restricted to the particular construction which we have herein described. It will also be understood that the swing frame may be formed of any material other than metal tubing.
What we claim is: I
1. A porch swing comprising a rectangular seat frame, arms in the form of inverted U members having eyes at their lower ends which pivotally engage the end members of said seat frame, an inverted U member forming the back and having eyes at its lower ends which pivotally engage the rear bar of the seat frame, said arms and back by means of such pivotal connections being foldable over upon the seat frame, and suspension members engaging the upper bars of the arm members; substantiallyas described.
2. A porch swing comprising a rectangular seat formed of metallic tubing, U members formed of metallic tubing having eyes at their lower ends which pivotally engage the end member of said seat frame, an inverted U member formed of metallic tubing forming the back and having eyes at its lower ends which pivotally engage the rear bar of the seat frame, said arms by reason of such pivotal connections being foldable over upon the seat frame, while the back by pivotal connections being foldable over upon said arms, and a plurality of suspension chains connected to the upper bar of each arm; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof, we have hereunto set our hands. v
