Speeication of Letters Patent.
Patented N ov. 19, 1918,
Application filed December 1, 1917. Serial No. 204,957.
l To aZZ lwhom t may concern.'
Be it known. that I, ALBERT WANNER, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, h. ve invented certain new and useful Improvements in Chair- Seats, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to chair seats and it has for its object to provide a seat which shall be inexpensive to manufacture, may be readily attached to a chair seat frame, and will afford a certain desired resilience at the center part thereof, at the same time being strong and durable.
My invention consists in a plate of suitable material, but preferably vlaminated veneer having the grain of the several layers crossed, formed at its center portion as a series of parallel slats or staves which are free between their ends to be pressed out of the plane of the plate but at their ends are rigidly supported each at one end by being formed integral with the outlying or marginal portion of the plate and at the other, Where it is detached from the plate, by a transverse member secured to the plate.
In the accompanying drawing,
Figure l is a plan view of thc improved Seat, a part of a certain strip being broken away; and,
Figs. 2 and 3 are sectional views on the lines 2-2 and 3-3, respectively, of Fig. l.
To form the seat I provide a relatively thin plate a which is of the proper shape to suit the seat frame of the chair to which it is to be attached. In the preferred form, this plate is composed of layers of veneer glued together and having their grains crossed.
Having provided this plate, the slits are formed therein more or less parallel with each other across the center part of the plate, preferably from front to rear thereof, thus leaving slats or staves d which are separated from each other but each of which is integral with the marginal or outlying portion of the plate at one end of such slat or stave. Each slat or stave at its other end is detached, as by a saw out d extending crosswise of the several staves or slats. The detached ends of the slats or staves are retained in the plane of the plate a', by two strips c, f extending transversely of the slats or staves and receiving their free ends between them, these strips being secured to the upper and lower faces of the plate in any desired manner, as by the rivets g.
Such a seat can obviously be made at the minimum of expense of time, labor and material; it can be readily attached to any chair seat frame by gluing or by screws or brads driven through its marginal portion into the seat frame; it constitutes a very durable construction; and it affords the desired resilience at the center thereof, the several slats or staves being readily yieldable independently of each other.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. A chair seat consisting of a plate of suitable material having its center part consisting of a series of slats each integral at one end with the margin of the plate and detached from the plate at the other end, in combination with a transverse member secured to the plate and supporting the detached ends of the slats.
2. A chair seat consisting of a plate of suitable material having its center part consisting of a series of slats each integral at one end with the margin of the plate and detached from the plate at the other end, in combination with transverse members secured to the opposite faces of the plate and receiving the detached ends of the slats between them.
In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature.
. ALBERT WANNER, JR.
