UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIo ISAAC N. DANN, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE NEW HAVEN FOLDING-CHAIR COMPANY, 'OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVEMENT IN'FOLDING CHAIRS.
"Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 168.883, dated October 19, 1875; application filed August 9, 1875.
OAsE B.
[I '0 all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, ISAAC N. DANN, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Folding Chairs; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full,clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-- Figure 1, side view as set up for use; Fig. 2, side view in folded condition.
This invention relates to an improvement in that class of chairs which are constructed so as to be folded into a compact form when not in use, or for transportation, and particularly to that class known as cross-legs and it consists in the combination of the rear leg to sup port the front of the seat, the back crossing the said rear leg down to the front, and a stay or arm piece, rigidly attached to the back above the seat, extending down and forward, and rigidly attached to the back piece below the seat, and so as to form the front leg.
A is the rear leg, which extends up and forward to form a front support, B, for the seat C. D, the back, extends downward, crossing and pivoted to the leg A at d. E is the front leg, extending up and rigidly attached to the back above the seat, as at e, and the lower end of the back piece also rigidly attached to the front leg E below the pivot, as at f, The seat C is attached to a rundle, a, at the back, and is made of any suitable or flexible mate rial.
This construction gives a front leg nearly vertical, and also provides an arm or side piece for the chair. The chair is folded by bringing the two legs together, as seen in Fig. 2.. A
The two sides 'of the chair, it will be understood, are alike, one side only being shown, and the two connected by rundles or slats, in the usual manner.
I claim- The combination, in a folding chair, of the rear leg A, extending up and forward to support the front ofthe seat C, the back D, extending down and pivoted to the rear leg, and the front leg E, rigidly attached to the back piece below the pivot, and extending up and backward, and rigidly attached to the back above the seat, substantially as described.
