v UNITED STATES CHARLES A. BLACKWOOD, OF KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN.
CANOPY FOR CHAIRS AND THE LIKE.
Application filed March 13, 1926. Serial No. 94,430.
The main object of this invention is to provide an improved canopy for collapsible chairs which permits the compact collapsing of the chair.
A further object is to provide an improved canopy which may be adjusted to the particular requirements.
Objects pertaining to details and economies of my invention will definitely appear from the detailed description to follow. The invention is clearly defined and pointed out in the claims.
A structure embodying the features of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawin forming a part of this application, in whic Fig. 1 is a side view of an adjustable and collapsible lawn chair embodying my improvements.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary plan view, parts being broken away and other parts being omitted for convenience in illustration.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary vertical section on a line corresponding to line 33 of Fig. 2 with the top in erected position.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary View with the chair collapsed.
The structure illustrated comprises front legs 1 extended into uprights 2 and rear legs 3 pivoted at 4. The front ends of the legs 3 are extended to support the cross rod 5 to which the flexible seat 6 is secured. The upper end of this canvas or flexible seat is connected to the cross rod 7 extending between the uprights.
The struts 8 are pivoted at 9 to the uprights and their lower ends are connected by the cross rod 10 adjustably engageable with the notches 11 in the legs 3 for supporting the seat at'the desired angle.
The structure illustrated is provided with arms 12 pivoted to the struts 8 at 13 and supported by the links 15 to engage with the pivots 1, the links being connected to the arm by the pivots 16.
The leg restdesignated generally by the numeral 17 is also collapsible. The details of these parts form no part of my invention.
The canopy or top 18 is supported by a frame consisting of side members 19 and front and rear cross rods 20 and 21. This canopy is supported by the links 22 which are ivoted on the inner sides of the side mem lers 19 at 23 to engage the rear cross rod 21, the links being secured to the upper ends of the uprights 2 by means of pivots 24.
The canopy is adjustably and collapsibly supported by means of the struts 25 which are pivoted to the inner sides of the side members 19 at 26 and adjustably and detachably secured to the uprights by means of the bolts 27 which are provided with wing nuts for convenience in manipulation. The struts have a series of holes 28 with which the bolts 27 engage, thereby permitting the supporting of the canopy at the desired angle and the adjustment thereof to meet the different conditions incident to the adjustment of the chair, that is, the adjustment resulting from engagement of the struts 8 with the difference notches 11.
By disengaging the struts 25 from the bolts 27 the canopy may be collapsed upon the uprights as shown in Fig. 4, the links 22 swinging upwardly and rearwardly as illustrated. When the'canopy is erected the cross rod 21 swings into engagement with the links as shown in Fig. 3. With the struts properly secured the canopy is effectively retained in its adjusted positions. The structureis simple and economical to produce and easy to adjust.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. The combination with canopy support- 2 ing uprights, of a canopy, a supporting frame therefor comprising side members and front and rear cross members, supporting links pivotally mounted on the upper ends of said uprights and pivotally connected to the inner sides of said frame side members to be engaged by the rear cross member thereof when the canopy is erected, and struts pivotally connected to the inner sides of said frame side members and detachably and adjustably connected to the said uprights.
2. The combination with canopy supporting uprights, of a canopy, a supporting frame therefor comprising side members and a rear cross member, supporting links mountmy hand.
