FOLDING SEAT FOR SIDE CARS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it :known that I, Lnwrs F. WHrrAoRE,.a
citizen of the United States, residing at Batavia, in the .county of Genesee and State of New York, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Folding Seats for Side Cars, of which the following is a specification. To increase the carrying capacity of motor cycles side carsare provided and to adapt such side cars for conveniently and comforts ably. carrying morethan one passenger, folding seats areprovided and it is the purpose of .the present invention to provide a seat which when not required for immediate use may be folded beneath the hood of the side car so as to be entirely-out of. the .way and which may be used in part as a foot rest by the passenger occupying the rear seat.
The invention provides essentially an all metal seat which to a large extent may be stamped or pressed from sheet metal and which is relatively light, durable and strong and which may be readily collapsed so as to be out of the way and easily and quickly adjusted into operative position when required for use.
The drawing illustrates a preferred embodiment of the invention. However, it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet different conditions, various changes in the form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the nature of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
In the drawing hereto attached,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a folding seat embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section of a side car provided with a folding seat constructed in accordance with the invention, the full lines illustrating the seat in operative position and the dotted lines showing the seat in folded position.
Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 33 of Fig. 2 looking to the front, as designated by the arrows.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in the several views of the drawing by like reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates the body of a side car such as commonly provided for use in connection with motor cycles, the same being illustrated to demonstrate the application of the invention.
Specification of Letters Patent.

bar .7, .thereby assisting materially'in hold- Z I ing the parts in operative position, as-indicated most clearlyninFigs. :1and2: The seatframe comprises uprights 8-and cross bars 9 and 10, the latter connecting the uprights.
The uprights .8 taper toward their upperv ends, whereas their .lower.ends
are broad or widened so as to provide a substantial footing for the chair. The chair frame is preferably constructed of a single piece of sheet metal pressed into the form substantially shown. The cross bar 7 is supported in the upper ends of the uprights 8 and project so that their ends pass through the slots 5 of the side members 4:. The uprights 8 are pierced at their lower forward ends, as indicated at 11 to receive a rod 12 which pivotally connects the chair frame to the side car. Angle bars 13 usually stifien and brace the bottom of a side car and the rod 12 is supported at its ends in the angle bars 13, as shown most clearly in Fig. 3. In order to provide a light structure, portions of the chair frame are cut away.
A brace 14: is provided at each side of the chair and is pivotally connected at its lower end to the upright 8 and at its upper end to the forward portion of the side member 4:. The chair frame pivots on the lower ends of the braces 14, whereas its upper end is adapted to move below the seat 1 from front to rear thereof. When the seat is folded the chair frame comes beneath the body of the seat 1, as shown most clearly by the dotted lines in Fig. 2. When the chair is in position for use, the supporting frame is in upright position with the projecting ends of the cross bar 7 at the rear ends of the slots 5 and seated in the notches 6. A suitable fastoning 15 engages the crossbar 10 and holds the seat in operative position against movement in any direction. A suitable fastening 16 applied to the rear portion of the hood of the side car engages the back of the seat and holds the same folded, as indicatedmost clearly by the dotted lines in Fig. 2.
It is observed that the seat is located forward of the car and when not required for use is adapted to fold beneath the hood so as to be entirely out of the way and the lower cross bar 10 occupies a position so as to constitute a foot rest. IVhen required for use the seat may be quickly and easily drawn from beneath the hood and assumes a po sition substantially as shown in Fig. 2 so as to afford comfort to the occupant without causing inconvenience to the occupant of the rear seat.
The foregoing description and the draw ing have reference to what may be considered the preferred, or approved form of my invention. It is to be understood that I may make such changes in construction and arrangement and combination of parts, materials, dimensions, et cetera, as may prove expedient and fall within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A folding seat for a motor cycle side car, the same comprising a supporting frame including side uprights having their lower ends widened and tapered toward their upper ends, a seat having longitudinally slotted side members, projections extending laterally from the upper ends of the uprights and operating in the slots of said side members and braces pivotally connecting the uprights to the forward portion of the seat.
2. A folding seat, comprising longitudinally slotted side members having vertically extending notches at the rear ends of the slots, a supporting frame including tapering uprights and connecting cross bars, said uprights being adapted to be pivotally supported at their lower forward ends lateral projections at the upper ends of the uprights operating in the slots of the members and braces pivotally connecting the forward ends of the side members to the said uprights.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
