COMBINATION COT AND BENCH.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 5, 1919..
Application filed May 3, 1919. Serial No. 294,599.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AUGUST A. ALMEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combination Cots and Benches, of which the follow ing is a specification.
My invention relates to dual purpose furniture, and the object is to provide a combination cot and bench of simple, eflicient and economical construction. The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure l is a side view of the device extended and set up to form a cot. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the device folded together to form a piano bench or other convenient seat. Fig. 3 is a front view of the seat as seen from the side in Fig. 2. Fig. 4c is an enlarged detail view of the canvas supporting hook used in the cot arrangement.
Referring to the drawing by reference numerals, l designates a double set of lazy tong crossed levers which form the main body portion of the device. These sets are held in respective parallel positions by means of a series of cross braces 2, and are thus also opened and closed simultaneously. The device is also provided with front and back panels 3 and land a cover or seat 5, all of which completely inclose the bench when it is folded together as such, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. When the bench is extended as shown in Fig. l, the seat which is hinged to the cross brace 6 is swung back and used as a pillow support. It is held in the proper position by the panel 3which is hinged at its bottom and provided with a slotted link 7 at each side, which slidably en gages a pin 8. Thus when the panel 3 is as far out as the links 7 will allow it to go it fiopiea 01' this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the is in a position to act as a support to the cover 5, engaging notches in the ornamental handles or brackets 9 on the cover, as shown in Fig. 1.
- A canvas or duck sheet 15 is permanently secured at both ends to cross braces 6 and 10, and is provided with suitable rings 12 to be engaged by hook washers 13 (see Fig. l) secured on the inner sides of the upper ends of the levers l by the bolts 14. Thus when the cot is to be folded together into a bench the canvas can first be released from the sides which will enable the person folding the cot to do so more neatly and compactly.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim to be new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
A combination cot and bench consisting of a double set of longitudinally arranged parallel lazy tong supports adapted to be folded up when used as a bench and extended when used as a cot, a flexible sheet adapted to be stretched between the upper ends of said supports when in their extended positions, a cover hingedly secured to said supports, notched brackets fixed on said cover near each end thereof, a panel at one end of the device hingedly secured at its bottom nd adapted to swing out at its top so as to engage the notched brackets on the cover when. the latter is swung back to be used as a pillow support for the cot, slotted links pivotally secured upon the inner side of said panel and slidably engaging-pins seaured in opposite lazy tong members, said links being adapted to limit the outward swinging movement of said panel to the position where it will best act'as a support for said cover.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
AUGUST A. ALMEN.
Commissioner of Patents,
Washington, D. G.
