COMBINED CRADLE AND CRIB.
Application filed July 8, 192 erial No. 724,805. Renewed January 23,1926.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in combined cradles and cribs.
An important object of this invention is to provide a twopart piece of furniture which may be put to several uses, viz It may be used as a cradle or it may be rearranged so that one part can be used as a crib and the second part as a clothes rack.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed for designating like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the two-part piece of furniture properly assembled for being used as a cradle,
Figure 2 is an end elevational view of the piece of furniture as shown in Fig. 1,
Figure 3 is a side elevational view of one part of the combination piece of furniture which may be used as a clothes rack, the second part having been removed for the purpose of using it as a crib,
Figure 4 is a top plan View of the structure illustrated in Fig. 3,
Figure 5 is a fragmentary elevational view of one leg of the crib portion of the combination piece of furniture, 6
Figure 6 is a vertical sectional view taken upon line VIVI of Fig. 5, and
Figure 7 is a detail perspective view of a spring pressed block employed as part of a resilient support for the crib portion of the device when it is used in combination with the second part as a cradle.
In the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of this invention,the numeral 5 designates the end pieces of one part of the combination piece of furniture, this part, when used by itself, will constitute the clothes rack referred to above. These end portions are braced and retained in spaced relation with respect to each other by the longitudinally extending bar 6. The enlarged head portion 5 of these end pieces 5 are provided with eye bolts 7 which project inwardly from the inner faces of the same for the purpose of receiving the hooked ends 8 of the joined pairs of tie rods 9. These pairs of tie rods are connected at their adjacent ends by the turn buckles 10 which are employed for varying the length of the said pairs of rods 9. In Figs. 3 and 4 the remaining hooked ends 11 of these pairs of rods 9 are shown as connected for forming, in combination with the end pieces 5 and brace bar 6, a clothes rack. a i
In Figs. 1 and 2, a crib structure, designated in its entirety by the numeral 12, conslsts of end pieces 13, side pieces 14, and legs 15. In Figs. 2, 5, 6 and 7, the legs 15 are illustrated as having pockets 16 formed therein which are substantially closed by the plates 17 each of which is longitudinally slotted, as at 18. Positioned within each pocket 16 is an upright rod 19 which is secured to the leg by a plate 20, as best illustrated in Fig. 6. Slidably positioned upon this rod 19 is an apertured block 21 which corresponds in outline to the cross-section of the pocket 16 and has in its four faces inset balls 22 which are adapted for engaging the walls of the pocket 16 and the inner face of the slotted plate 17 for providlng an anti-friction connection therebetween. This apertured block 21 is provided with a headed arm 23 which projects outwardly through the slot 1.8 of the plate 17 and is adapted for receiving one of the hooked ends 11 of the pairs of rods 9. Positioned within each pocket 16 between the block 21 and the upper end wall of the pocket 16 is a spiral spring 2 1 which encircles the post 19 and is employed for forcing downwardly ppor115the block 21 and upwardly upon the It will be seen that the structure just described will provide means for resiliently supporting the crib structure 12 and will permit the said crib structure to be rocked for the purpose of forming a swinging cradle structure.
It is now believed that the construction of the various portions of this combination piece of furniture will be understood and that the various ways of utilizing the same will be very apparent from the above detail description.
It is to be understood that the form of this invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described the invention, I claim V 1. In a device of the type described, the
combination with a support having upright end pieces, rods pivotally connected to said end pieces, and'hooks carried by the free ends of said rods, of a bed structure, and downwardly spring pressed arms projecting from the legs of said bed structure adapted to be engaged by the hooked ends of said rods for providing yieldable supports for said bed structure, said bed structure being adapted to be disconnected from said rods for permitting the same to be placed upon the floor for use as a crib.
2. In a device of the type described; the combination with a "support, and .a. crib structure; of means for resiliently connecting the crib structure to said support for permitting the former to be rocked and jounced, said means including a vertically extending pocket formed in each corner of said crib structure, apost in each pocket, an apertured block slidable on each post, and a spring encirclingeach post and forcing downwardly on its block-anarm carried by each block and projecting outwardly through a vertical slot in its pocket, and a rod pivotally connected to each arm and the support. r
V In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
