Description
UNITED STATEs PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES RUPREOHT, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN BED-BOTTOMS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 130,077, dated July 30, 1872.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, CHARLES RUPEEOET, of Cleveland, in the county of Ouyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and Improved Spring Bed-Bottom; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and complete description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawiu g making part of the same.
SPECIFICATION.
inafter more fully described.
In the drawing, Fig. 2, A represents the springs, and which are of a V. shape, with the exception that one limb is longer than the other. The longest ends of the springs are attached to the rail of the bedstead or frame, and which frame is represented by the base B, whereas to the upper or shorter ends are secured the slats G by a certain device, consisting of a saddle, D, and yoke E, Fig. l. A detached view of said saddle is shown in Fig. 4. The saddle is riveted or otherwise fixed to the end of aspring, with its cars a upward, between which the slat is placed, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. The end of the slat is secured to the saddle by a yoke, E, passing around over the slat and under the ends of the saddle, the yoke being prevented from slipping away from the saddle and slat by the groove b, Fig. 4, in the under side of the saddle and the notches c in the edges of the slat.
Springs of the above-described shape and applied to the purpose specified will allow the slat a vertical movement, and, at the same time, admit of their being rigidly attached thereto, and which can be donein a more secure manner than if the two limbs of the springs were of the same length and the slats attached to the ends thereof, which, in that event, would require a slot in the slat to allow it to adjust itself to the changing position of the spring, as the distance between the upper ends of the two springs varies more. or less, as the comprcssion of the springs may be; but by having the upper limb of the spring the shortest, extending no further than about to the rail to which the lower end is fastened, said lower end of the spring will be deflected downward, and thereby compensate for the variation of distance between the springs that may take place in consequence of the compression of their two limbs.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The saddle 1), made hollow onthe under side to receive the yoke E, and formed with ears a a on the upper part to hold the slats (l, and arranged with the springs A and frame B, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
