SPRING CUSHION.
i corresponding lower edge as to produce a decided overhanging effect. So far as I am aware, this has never before been accomplished in this type of cushion, except by the use of additional padding applied to the front face of the cushion adjacent the upper edge. This expedient not only adds to the upholstering cost but results in a cushion that is subject to unsightly distortion in use. Y
One object of the present invention is the provision of a spring body for cushions of the desired overhanging elfect.
Another object is the provision in a cushion of the character, mentioned of a novel arrangement of springs affording a `full spring support for the entire 'upper face including thea forward overhangingedge thereof.
Another object is the provision of a spring cushion havingA a novel arrangement of parts by which the front forward edge i thereof is firmly braced and retained against o distortion.
These and `other objects and advantages will appear from the followingfdescriptlon of an illustrative embodiment of the present invention.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a transverse sectional view of a -spring cushion body constructed in accordance with the present invention.
Figure2 is a top plan view of the cushion of Figure 1.
The cushion body shown comprises a mass of u right coiled springs 10 arranged Vin close y associa-ted rows extending lengthwise of the cushion. The springs are enclosed in' i individual ockets formed by the `fabric 11 in the usua manner. lExcept as hereinafter pointed out, the springs are tied together and tothe usual upper and lower heavy wire frames 12 and 13 in the -usual manner, the usual transverse and longitudinal cords 14 and 15 being also, employed to further insure and maintaln them in proper assembled re- 1924. Serial No. 705,159.
lation. The upper frame 12 is inclined relative to the lower frame 13, so as to provide the desired seat pitch, and to this end the springs of the several rows are of different graduated lengths.
In this instance, the upper frame 12 is of considerably greater width than the lower frame 13 so as to project forwardly a predetermined distance therebeyond. To maintain this overhanging relation the springs of the forward row are inclined forwardly from their ordinary upright position and spaced at their upper ends from the adjacent row of springs. A spacer element of any appropriete form is interposed between these two rows of springs. In the cushionshown, this element comprises a pair of heavy wires 16 inl parallel spaced relation connected at their ends to form a closed loop and secured-v at their ends by clips 17 or otherwise to the side members 18 of the upper frame. The
Various changes may be made in the embodiment of the invention hereinabove spe# cically described, without departing from spacer element isposed between the upper forward row of or sacrificing?,- any of the advantages of .the Y `invention as defined in the appended claims.
ends of said row of inclined springs and the remainder of the springs'.
2. A spring cushion comprising a frame having a forward edge, a mass of upright coil springs supporting said frame and including a set of springs inclined inwardly from said forward edge, and a substantially rigid spacer element extending parallel to said edge between the upper ends of said inclined springs andfthe other of said springs for positioning said springs and for relnforcing said forward edge.
3. A spring cushion comprising a frame having a forward edge, a mass of upright coil springs of different graduated lengths for supporting said frame in inclined position with said forward edge uppermost, means for retaining the lower ends of said springs in assembled relation, and an element secured to said frame substantially connecting said frames, and a spacer element secured to said upper frame and connected with and between the upper ends of certain of said springs to maintain an angular relation therebetween.
5. A spring cushion comprising a lower frame, an upper frame overhanging said lower frame at one side thereof` a mass of upright coil springs connecting said frames, and a spacer element extending substantially parallel with said overhanging side and between the upper ends of certain of said springs to maintain an angular relation between said separated springs. l
6. A spring cushion comprising a lower frame, an upper frame overhanging said lower frame at one side thereof, and a mass of upright coil springs connecting said frames, said mass of springs including a set of springssupporting the overhangi'ng portion of said upper frame and inclined to maintain said upper frame in overhanging position.
In witness whereof, I hereunto subscribe my name this 31st day of March, 1924.
