Definitions

  • This invention relates to a new method for attaching canvas or other fabric or the like to rails or the like of wood or metal or other suitable material, the object being to provide a detachable seating surface capable of being attached to any rails of suitable section whether formin )art of a deck 01' hammock chair or similar article of furniture, or merely supported by pillars, posts or other suitable means.
  • the object in the latter case is for the fixed rails, placed in the requisite positions, for example round sports grounds and other places, to be temporarily converted into rows of deck or hammock chairs or similar articles of furniture by fitting thereto a number of independent seating surfaces.
  • each end of a length of canvas or other fabric to constitute a seat is stiffened and modelled substantially in the plane of the length of fabric, for instance by tightly sheathing therein in the plane of the fabric, a strip of millboard or other suitable material which preferably is slightly resilient and more or less pliable. Hard wood, enveloped in paper, wash leather or other resilient material could also be used.
  • the said stifiening material should preferably be flat on one side and slightly rounded or beveled on the other; it must not exceed in width the width of a flat or substantially flat face or surface which it is essential for the rails to have and its thickness should preferably be about one eighth of its own width.
  • the said stiffening material or shape is preferably inserted in the fabric in the following manner:Each end of the length of fabric constituting the seating material is folded over and stitched down so as to form a narrow sheath barely large enough to contain the said stiffening material or shape, so that when same is inserted therein the fabric constituting the said sheath is fully distended A sheath is preferable to a sleeve, as one end is closed and the other left open so that the said stiffening material or shape may be ex? tracted when the seating surface is sent to the wash. 1
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a portion of the proposed stifiening material or shape.
  • Fig. 2 shows a similar view with the stiffening material or shape inserted in the fabric.
