ATTORNEYS NITED s TEsrArs F F l JOSEPH AVRIL, or LOS ANGELESLCALIFORNIA, AssIGNoa or ONE-HALF 'ro LAKE c. ALEXANDER, or LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
' Application filed may 1 ToaZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OSEPH AVRIL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Box Couches, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is a couch including a suitable frame and a slat structure yieldably supported thereby and provided with a truss structure for reinforcing the support means for the slat construction.
The invention also contemplates an arrangement whereby the slat structure is provided with yieldable sides in order that the couch will have cushioned edges instead of the usual non-yielding side edges which are characteristic of box couches.
The invention will be readily understood from the following description of the ac companying drawings, in which:
Figure l is a plan view of a couch constructed in accordance with the invention, partly broken away.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
Figs. 1 and 5 are detail sections on the lines 44C and 5-5 of Fig. 1.
The frame of the couch may include usual corner post 1 connected at the end of the frame by transverse bars 1. Transverse end bars 2 and longitudinal side bars 3 are of reduced width throughout the major portions of their lengths and are supported by the corner posts. By means of the reduced width of the side bars 3 the couch structure supported at the upper edges of the frame, as thus provided, will be above the side bars 3 in order to permit of yield of said couch structure toward the side bars and at the side edges of the couch structure, and thereby eliminate the usual non-yieldable edges of a box couch.
A slat construction is formed of a plurality of transversely spaced slats 4 extending lengthwise of the couch and somewhat shorter than the couch frame. These slats are provided with end loops 5 connected to the loops 6 at the ends of coil spring 7 and transverse bars 8 are also received in the loop 6 of the springs and extend at the respective sides beyond the slat construction. Longitudinal bars 9 extend alongside of the Specification of Letters Patent.

slat constructionin spaced relation beyond the sides'of the same, and are connected at their ends to loops 6 of springs which also support the ends of transverse bars 8 by their loops 6. By this arrangement it will be seen that bars are spaced beyond the ends and sides of the slat construction so as to form yieldable edges for said slat construction.
U-bracketsll are received around bars 1, and springs 7 are connected to one of the arms of said brackets, while similar springs 12 are connected to the other arms of the brackets. A transverse bar 13 is received against the under surfaces of the slats 4: midway of their length, and so as to depend an appreciable distance from the same, and con nections shown as flexible members 14: are received beneath the bar 13 so as to support the same against the slat construction and are connected at their ends to the springs 12 at the respective ends of the couch. It will thus be seen that a truss structure is provided for reinforcing the supporting means for the slat construction.
A usual fabric 16 is received over the slat construction and extends at its side edges over longitudinal bars 9 and thence over the side bars 3 to which it is secured. The longitudinal bars 9 are received in suitable pockets formed of the fabric lengthwise thereof and by the fabric strips 16 The ends of fabric 16 are looped over transverse bars 8 with the loops 6 of springs 7 received through the same, as clearly shown in Fig. 4. A usual mattress structure 18 is built up upon fabric 16 and may be suitably covered and tufted in usual manner.
The construction, as thus set forth, provides an arrangement whereby a couch is formed with yieldable edges, and the couch structure is yieldably supported in a frame with a truss structure reinforcing the yieldable mounting for the couch construction.
Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
hat is claimed is:
1. In a couch a frame having end rails, brackets arranged on said end rails, springs secured to the upper portions of said brackets, slats connected to said springs, a transversely disposed member arranged beneath said slats, springs secured to the lower portions of said brackets and wires connecting the ends of the last mentioned springs,
3. In a couch, a frame, a series of slats yieldingly supported from the end rails of said frame, a bar arranged transversely beneath the central portions of said slats, springs secured to the end rails of the couch frame, and Wires connecting said springs,
which wires extend beneath the transversely disposed bar. 4. A couch slat construction and said frame, and bars spaced beyond the ends and sides of said slat construction and carried by said spring connections.
5. A couch including a frame, a slat construction yieldably supported above the sides of said frame, bars spaced-beyond the ends and sides of said slat construction and yieldably supported with thesame by said frame, and a mattress carried by said slat construction and'said sideand end bars and extendingover the sides of said frame and secured thereto.
