UNITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
CHARLES A. MENDUM, OF CAMBRIDGEPORT, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN CABINET-BEDSTEADS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 151,791, dated June 9, 1874; application filed March 25, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES A. MENDUM, of Cambridgeport, of the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Gabinet-Bedstead; and do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings of which- Figure l denotes a side elevation, Fig. 2 a top view, and Fig. 3 a longitudinal section, of it as extended. Fig. 4 is a front elevation, and Figs. 5 and 6 transverse sections, of it as closed. Fig. 7 is an elevation of the crownpiece of the head-board. Fig. 8 is a side View of one of the end closing doors or pieces.
This bedstead is composed in part of three rectangular frames, AB G, arranged as shown, and connected by hinges a a b b. Each of such fra-mes is provided with a series of slats, c, extending across it from end to end, and there is a cover or boarding, D, fastened to the under side of the frame A, so as to cover it entirely, and not only project a short distance beyond each end of it, as shown at d d, but also to extend beyond its inner edge, and underneath the next contiguous frame B, as shown at e. Furthermore, to the frame C there is also a like cover or boarding, E, such cover being fixed to the under side of the frame, and projected beyond its ends, as represented at ff, and also beyond its outer edge, as shown. at g. A foot-board, F, is iixed to the outer edge of the frame C, and to the part g. A head-board, G, is attached to and projects up from the outer edges of the frame A and its boarding D, itvbeing extended a short distance below the latter. In the upper edge of the headboard is a series of mortises, 71J h h, to receive corresponding tenons i i i, extended 'rom the base of the crown-piece H, which answers as a cap or nish to the headboard. The said crown-piece H, when the bedstead is folded into the form of a cabinet, as shown in Figs. 4, 5, and 6, is to rest on the top and rear part of the head-board, and constitute a back finish therefor, there being mortises 7c made in the board to -receive the tenons of the crown-piece. The middle frame B has four legs, l, extended down from it, and there are two legs, m m, projected from the back boarding of theframe A, all being arranged as represented. There also projects from each end of the frame B a rabbeted cleat, n, to receive and support one of the end nishing doors I I, which, when placed thereon, and between it and the headboard and the bottoms of the framesA C, closes the lateral openings of the cabinet. A turn-button, o, fixed to the door I, and turned into a recess or notch made in the head-board, serves with the rabbeted cleat to hold the door in place. Springs may be placed upon the slats of the frames, and the whole be upholstered so as to constitute a bed foundation or support for a mattress or bed, which, with the pillows and bed-clothing, may be folded or packed within the bedstead when closed in the form of a cabinet. Eyes p 19, projecting from the upper edge of the head-board, and hooks pivoted to the back boarding of the frame G, serve to hold the headboard upon the foot-board. By having the back boarding of the frame A to project down below the said frame, as shown in Fig. 5, the frame B will be covered from view when the frame A is in a vertical position.
I claim- 1. The combination of the two end doors II with the three frames A B (l, headboard G, back boardings D E, and cleats a a, all being arranged and applied substantially as specied.
2. The separate piece H, in combination with the head-board G, all being arranged and applied substantially as specified.
CHARLES A. MENDUM.
