:METAL CHAIR.
Application tiled June 23, 1921.
To all whom t may concer/1t.'
lie it known that I, JosnrH SALOMON, a citizen of the I lnited States, residing at the city of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Chairs, oi which the following is a specification.
lily invitent-ion relates to chairs and particularly to that class thereof which are used in places of common resort or public assembly such as billiard and pool rooms and the like. one object thereof is to provide a chair which shall be substantial and durable in construction, attractive in appearance and which can readily be cleaned and kept in hygienic condition. It is a further object of my invention to so arrange and assemble the parts that the greatest strei l can be obtained with a minimum use of material and that the parts can be readily and cheaply manufactured and assembled. A
It is another object to provide an element of flexibility and resiliency which will contribute greatly to the comfort of the occupant, and, at the same time, to provide a substantial foot rest for those chairs in which the ysupporting legs are of greater length than those of an ordinary chair.
In the drawings Figures 1 and 2 represent respectively front and side elevations of my improvedr chair. Figures 3 and l are respectively enlarged sections on the lines 3 and 4 of Figure 2. Figure 5 shows an alternative construction enlarged. Figure 6 is a section on the line 6-6 of Figure 5. Figure 7 is a section on the line 7-7 of Figure 2.
Further describing my invention with reference to the drawings in which like characters of reference denote like parts throughout, 1` represents the legs and 2 the seat of a metal chair. The legs are preferably made of angle iron and the seat includes a metal ring having the transverse or horizontal flange 8, and vertical flange 4, to which the angle iron legs, which are flattened at the top for that purpose, are attached by rivets in the usual and well known manner. A seat board or filler in shape corresponding to the flanged ring is fitted within the "vertical flange thereof and is held in position by a plurality of clips or brackets 6, the whole being securely held together by bolts 7 which pass through the depending flanges of thc seat ring and of the clips Serial No. 479,721.
by which the seat filler is clamped in place. The lower ends of the spindles 10 which support the arms are attached to the outer faces of the seat ring by means of trie bolts 7 so far as they correspond in position to the proper position of the spindles, while otherwise individual bolts 8 are used as necessary. Above the point of attachment the spindles are carriedv outwardly with a rounded turn and then carried upwardly to the proper height at which they are turned at right angles to form substantially horizontal flanges or projections 12 to which the arms 13 are attached, preferably by screws passing through proper openings in the flanges 12 and taking upwardly into the arm iieces. The back spindles 15 at their lower ends are attached to the depending seat ring flange il in the manner hereinbefore described with respect to the arm spindles and are carried upwardly with suitable curves to the point 17 at which the back-board 18 is attached by screws 19 or other suitable means. The arm and the back spindles are preferably made of thin strips of metal of sufficient size to give proper strength and stability without destroying the resiliency thereof.
In order that the spindles as described may support each other and at the same time provide a comfortable resiliency in the chair, I secure the spindles together as shown, by the tie-bar 20. The ends of said tie-bar at 21 are secured to the arm spindles, and it is shaped to follow the curve of the arm spindles, as they follow the chair seat, and include those spindlesy which support the bach. At all intersections of the bar with the spindles they should be securely attached together by rivets 22 and the front ends of the tie-bar should lit closely below the arms 13. Said ends may contact with the offset portions or flanges 12 as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
An alternative construction is shown in Figures 5 and 6 in kwhich the tie-bar, which in this case should be somewhat wider than that already illustrated, is placed inside the upper parts of the arm spindles so that the upper edge thereof fits snugly against the under faces of the arm pieces 13.
rIhe constructions shown are applicable to chairs of varying heights. For the purpose of providing a substantial and comfortable foot rest on chairs having legs of greater length than normal, I extend two of the side rungs 24, which are suitably spaced, forwardly from the chair seat, Abeyond the front legs of the chair. The said legs as illustrated consist of angle 1cars having flanges and 26. The latter should be perforated as shown at 27 in such a manner that the forwardly projecting end of rung 2li will pass therethrough. The ends may be extended forwardly in a direct line to receive the vfoot board, but I prefer to give them an inset curve, or bend them to form a lplurality of angles by which the portion 29 will be at or within the inner edges of the angle bars which form the front legs. A suitable foot piece 31 of sheet metal has the ends turned downwardly, and folded over the outer faces of the projections 29 to which it is rigidly attached by rivets 33.
In order that the legs of the chair may be fully strengthened and braced, I provide i a number of rungs in suitable proportion to Ll l) Cri the height of the legs, two of which, numbered 24e, are forwardly extended as already explained to support thefoot rest. In the construction it is desirable to provide room for the legs of the occupant of the chair and for that purpose I form the rung 35 next above the foot rest with a curve extending backwardly under the chair seat.r
It is evident that my improved chair is applicable to many uses other than those named, as, for instance, a shoeshining'chair,
and many changes and modifications may be made to adapt it to suc-h uses without departing from the principles and spirit Vof my invention. i
, I claim: l
' l. vIn a chair; a multiplicity of flattened resilient metal spindles attached to the sides of the chair seat, arms secured to the top of said spindles, flattened back spindles of resilient metal having their lower ends attached to the seat, a backboard attaclicd to the free ends of said back spindles, and a unitary resilient tie bar attached to and connecting the. upper ends of the arm spindles and the intermediate portions of the bacilli spindles in fixed spaced relation to each other.Y Y
2. In a chair; a plurality of flattened resilient metalY spindles having their lower ends flatly attached to the sides of the chair seat, arms secured tothe top` of the spindles, flattened back spindles of resilient metal having their lower ends flatly attached to the seat, a. baclr board attached to the free ends of the back spindles, and a resilient tie bar attached to the upper portions of the side spindles and to the back spindles intermediateftheir length for retaining said side and back spindles in fixed spaced relation to each other, but allowing them to flex toward and away from the vertical axis of axes.
3. In a chair; a multiplicity of flattened resilient metal spindles attached to the sides Y of the chair seat, arms secured to the top of said spindles, flattened back spindles of resilient metal attached to the seat, and a unitary resilient tie-bar to secure said spindles together, said tie-bar having the front portions thereof attached to the top portion of the side spindles and contacting with the lower base of the said arms.
4. In a chair having a seat including a flanged seat ring, a plurality of metal spindles attached to the vertical flange at the sides of said seat ring projecting upwardly therefrom, armssecured to the upper ends of said spindles, back spindles of resilient metal attached to the vertical flange of said sea-t ring projecting upwardly therefrom, a back piece attached to the free ends of said back spindles, and a resilient tie bar secured at its opposite ends to the side spindles adjacentl their upper portions and tothe back spindles at points intermediate their length whereby the portions of the back spindles projecting above said tie bar will be permitted to flex.
5. In a chair having angle iron legs; a plurality of rungs, each extended between the front and rear legs Y and having endl Vportions projecting forwardly from and through closely fitting openings inV the flanges of the front legs and rigidly secured therein, and a. foot rest secured to the said forwardly projecting portions.
lOl)
6. In a chair having angle iron legs; a
plurality of rungs each extended between front and rear legs of said chair'and having end portions projecting forwardly from and through closely fitting openings in flanges of the front legs and rigidly secured therein, and inclined toward each other, and a foot rest supported by the said projecting end portions.
7. In a chair having a seat including a flanged seat ring, a. multiplicity of metal Y spindles attached to the vertical flange of said seat ring and having their upper ends turned into a substantially horizontal plane,
arms attached to the tops of said spindles, a resilient unitary tie-bar secured to said spindles adjacent their turned over ends and securing'them to each other in spaced relation, back spindles of resilient metal having their lower' ends attached to the vertical flange of said seat ring and extending upwardly above and attached to said tie-bar, and a back piece attached to the upper and free ends lof said back spindles. j
In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand at Chicago, Cook County of Illinois, this 20th day of June, 1921.
JOSEPH SALOMON.
