PATENT OFFICE.
JULIUS A. LIAHR, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, ASSIGNORTO COZY BABY CARRIAGE COMPANY, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, A CORPORATION OF MINNESOTA."
FOLDING BABY CARRIAGE.
Application filed October 2; 1922. Serial no. 591,766.
' 1,470,630, entitled Supplemental cover for baby carriage hoods, issued October 16, 1923, and said invention has for its object to improve the same in the several particulars hereinafter noted. 7
lVhile the improved folding baby carriage can be used as a full sized baby carriage, it is well adapted for use as a folding dolls carriage.
To the above end, generally stated, the invention consists of the novel devices and combinations of devices hereinafter described and defined in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, which illust-rate the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a right side elevation of the improved folding baby marriage with some parts sectioned;
Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the running gear folded;
Fig. 3 is a. detail view, on an enlarged scale, of the front coupling, with some parts broken away and sectioned, and fragmentary portions of the connected post, reach and radius rods, said parts being folded as shown in Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a detail view, with some parts sectioned, of the front left-hand wheel, stub axle and fragmentary portions of the connected radius rod and cross tie-bar, said parts being folded as illustrated in Fig. 2.
The folding running gear of the improved baby carriage includes a reach 5, a pair of posts 6, a pair of couplings 7, two pairs of radius rods 8, the outer ends of each pair being bent outward into axial alignment to afford stub axles 9 on which are journaled wheels 10. The couplings 7 are pivoted, one to each end of the reach 5, for longitudinal outward and downward swinging movement, in respect to the reach, and the lower ends of the posts 6 are pivoted to said couplings for like movements. These couplings 7 are in the form of saddles which rest upon. the
reach 5 and posts 6 and limit the swinging movement of the posts 6 toward each other when in upright positions, as shown in Fig. 1, and normally hold said posts in diverging relation. Said couplings 7 are so arranged that the posts 6 can be folded under the running gear in substantially parallel arrange;
ment with one another and the reach 5, as shown in Fig. 2, and are secured in this position by a buckle-equipped strap 11 perinanently attached to the reach 5.
Formed with each coupling 7 is a pair of diverging downwardly and inwardly inclined sockets 12 in which the upper ends of theradius rods 8 are seated and rigidly se cured by pins or rivets 13. Each pair of radius rods 8 is rigidly connected at its outer ends by a fiat cross tie-bar 14 which is substantially aligned with the respective stub axles 9. Vhen the running gear is folded, as shown in Fig. 2, the pairs of wheels 10 overlap and the cross tie-bars lt'are transversely between the reach 5 and the posts 6, and thereby hold said wheels folded. Thewheels 10 are held on the stub axles 9 by cotter pins 15, and the outer ends of the hubs of said wheels'and, stub axles 9 are covered by caps 16 secured to certain of the spokes of the wheels. The upper ends of the posts 6 are forked to afford a pair of prongs 17, to each. pair of which is rigidly secured atransverse handle 18. Formed in the upper ends of the posts 6 between the prongs 17 are outturned hooks 19 for a purpose that will presently appear.
To lock'the running gear against rolling movement when left standing, lock fingers 20 are pivoted to one pair of radius rods 8 I and arranged to turn between the spokes of the respective pair of wheels 10. i
The body 21 of the improved folding baby carriage, as shown, is collapsible and preferably made of canvas, drilling or other suit able fabric. Suitable spreader rods are secured in the bottom and upper edge portion of the body 21 to hold the same in proper form. To each end of the body 21 is attached astrap 22 having at its outer end a ring 23 which detachably interlocks with one 'of the hooks 19. The length of the straps 22 is such that the rings 23 may be interlocked with the hooks 19 b springing the upper ends of the posts 6 slig tly toward each other, and the body 21 and straps 22 form a tie between the posts 6 to firmly hold the same firmly against the couplings 7, and'in turn, said couplings will be firmly held onto the reach 5, as shown in Fig. 1.
At one end of the body 21 is a folding;
movement, there is secured to opposite sides of the body 21 a buckle-equippedstrap 28 secured at its-intermediate portion to. the
reach 05 A buckle-equipped strap 29 isse cured to the upper edge portions 21 to hold the babyor doll in thebody-2L.
What I claim is:
A' folding running gear comprising a reach, a pair ofposts, couplings foldably connecting the poststo thereach and having sockets, a pair o't'radi'us rods having their einnerendstelescoped into the sockets of each coupling and permanently secured therein, thoouter end portionsot each pair of radius rods being extended outward into axial alignine t to afford stub axles, and wheels journaled on the stub axles,.said radiusrods ri 'idl' holdin' the wheels of each air laterally spaced and 'for parallel inovtmentszto the reach during the movement of the run 1 D to and from folded positions.
In testimony whereof l'atlix my signature.
