SALVATORE CANE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
DISMOUN'TABLE CAMP-CHAIR TENT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 29, 1916.
Application filed April 22, 1915 Serial No. 23,083.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SALVATORE CANE, a subject of the King of Italy, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Dismountable Camp-Chair Tents, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to disnrountable camp chairs and tents and has as its principal object to provide camp chairs, the parts of which can easily be separated and assembled and, when taken apart, may be formed into a conveniently portable package.
A further object of my invention is to provide such camp chairs with removable and adjustable tents which may also be folded into a comparatively small and easily portable size, when dismounted from the chair.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a device of the character described, containing no screws and which may easily and quickly be assembled and taken apart.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, my invention consists of the particular construction, arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter more specifically described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1, is a vertical section of a camp chair and tent constructed according to my invention, in position ready for use. Fig. 2, is a front view of my device in the same position, on a reduced scale. Figs. 3, 4, 5 and 6 are partly sectional, partly elevational, fractional views of different details of my device on an enlarged scale. Fig. 7, is a fractional perspective view of a detail, some parts broken away, and some hidden parts shown in dotted lines. Fig. 8, is a perspective detail view. Figs. 9 and 10 are partly sectional, partly elevational fractional detail views of my device. Fig. 11, is a plan view of a table adapted to be used in con junction with my device. Fig. 12, is a section of the same, taken on the line 1212 of Fig. 11, and showing, in elevation, part of the arrangement for the support of the table. Fig. 13, is a fractional detail view in perspective.
Referring to the drawings, it will be seen therefrom that the camp chair has two pairs of legs 15, the units of each pair being crossed and joined at the crossing point in the way shown in Fig. 13, so that they cannot move from their respective positions. The two pairs of legs are connected by a rod 16, for which suitable holes 17 are provided in the legs 15. The rod 16 has two flanges 18, one on either end inside of the legs 15, for an obvious purpose.
The upper ends of the opposite legs 15 are connected by a pair of cross bars 19 one in front and one at the rear, to which is removablyfastened the canvas seat 20, and the units of each pair of legs 15 are connected on top of the transverse laths 19, by side bars 21. The cross bars 19 and the side bars 21 are fixed to the legs by means of easily removable bolts 22 as seen in Fig. 1.
The side bars 21 are provided with longitudinal slots throughout almost their entire length, partially shown at 23, and within these slots, at the fore-end thereof, I provide a hook 24: and at the rear end an eye 25, for purposes hereinafter'set forth.
The tent or canopy which may be used in conjunction with my camp chair consists of two sets of uprights 26 pivotally mounted on eyelets 27 in the manner of the ribs of a fan, each set adapted to be fixed on one end of the rod 16 projecting outside of the legs 15 and there secured in place by means of pins 28 as seen in Fig. 9.
Each of the uprights 26 consists of two parts pivotally connected as at 29, the upper parts being provided with longitudinal slots 30 near the pivoting point. Sleeves 31 having pins 32 slidable in the slots 30, are mounted on each upright, in such a way that when the latter are in a position as seen in Figs. 1 and 7, the sleeves slide over the pivoted ends of the two parts of the uprights 26 and keep same in an extended position, whereas when the uprights are dismounted from the chair and turned upside down, the sleeves 31 slide down on the slotted parts of the uprights 26 and allow them to be folded around the pivot 29. The
' v front end of the chair.
dinal slot 35. A rivet 36 is slidably passed through the slot 35 and the slots of .the bars 34. This arrangement serves to keep the uprights 26 in the desired positions. The rearmost upright 26 has secured to it a hook 37 adapted to engage the eye 25 and thus keep the said upright fastened to the rear end of the seat of the camp chair, whereas the foremost upright 26 is provided with a chain 38 adapted to be engaged with the hook 24, allowing the foremost upright 26 to be adjusted with "respect to the Thecupper ends of each of the opposite uprights 26 are connected by cross rods 39, the ends of which are turned reentrantly and pass through openings formed in the uprights in such manner that the rods may be removed by meet I preferably connect them by means of clasps 43 which may readily be attached at any part of the covering material without sewing, as illustrated in Fig. 8.
In front of the chair the covering material is divided in two panels as seen in Fig. 2, each panel having formed at its top a seam 44 secured around the foremost transverse bar 39 by snap buttons 42, in the manner shown in Fig. 6, so that the two panels may be pushed asunder or drawn. together in the manner of curtains. I also preferably provide the tent with windows 45 on either side and in the back, allowing the person seatedon the chair within the tent to have an outlook on all the approaches to same.
Depending from the front cross-bar 39 I provide a hanger-46 having hingedly connected to its lower end a member 47 adapted to be folded up substantially parallel to the hanger 46, butjlimited by a spur 48 formed in the hinge, to a substantially horizontal position as shown in detail in Fig. 12.
The free end of the member 47 is curved at right angles andprovided with a flange 49 whereupon rests a table 50 provided with a hole in itscenter, through which the end of the member 47 projects andis thereupon detachably secured by a pin 51. The table 50 consists of a sheet of canvas provided Copies o1 this patentmay be obtained-for with pockets 52 crossing each other into which are removably inserted rods 53 to keep the canvas extended. The hanger 46 is provided with several hooks 54 near its upper end, so that it can be hung higher or lower, as desired.
The lower end of the legs 15 is preferably shodwith horizontal plates 55 giving it a firm footing on the ground and having holes 56 through which pins may be inserted to fasten the chair to the ground more securely.
It is understood that while I have thus shown and described thepreferred forms of embodiment of my invention, I do not want to be limited by its mechanical details and may resort to such alterations and modifications as come within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.
I claim:
1. The combination with a canopy frame having fiat crossed supports of equal length at its sides and a rod removably engaging said supports at the point of intersection thereof said rod extending through said frame, of a plurality of sectional uprights the lower section thereof being pivoted on said red at each side of the frame, means for rigidly engaging the lower and upper sections of said uprights together, means combined with the frame for holding said uprights in a spread condition, a second spreading-means at the tops of said uprights, rods removably engaging oppositely disposed uprights, and a detachable canopy exterior of said uprights, at the top, sides, and rear thereof said canopy extending to the top of said supports- 2. The combination with a canopy frame having flat crossed supports of equal length and a removable connection therebetween, of a plurality of uprights pivoted on said connection, said uprights being in two sections, a joint connecting between the sections whereby they may be held extended one above the other, means for engaging the front and rear uprights with the frame, links pivotally engaged with the upper ends of the upper sections of said uprights whereby the latter may be held divergently apart, rods connecting between vsaid opposite uprights above said links, and a fabric covering disposed over said uprights and at the sides thereof, said covering being detachably engaged therewith.
' SALVATORE CANE.
