H. F. HAGER MATTRESS Filed latch 16. 1928 Ang'. 2o, 1929.
Patented Aug. 20, 1929.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY F. HAGER, OF MUNCIE, INDIANA, ASSIGNOR TO 'HAGER MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF MUNCIE, INDIANA, A CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
MATTRESS.
Application led March 16, 12528'. Serial No. 262,100.
My invention relates to mattresses which employ elongated axially compressible coiled springs, the invention being of particular service in connection with so-called box springs employing textile fabric casings for the springs, the invention, however, not being limited to the employment of textile fabric. The term mattress is used in the broad sense of a cushion and whether it is placed horizontally or otherwise in relation to seats, beds or other furniture.
'The invention has for its general object the provision of an improved assembly between the end coils of the springs and, if
such be employed, the textile fabric which may take part in holding the springs in assembly. The springs are suitably joined with the fabric and there are spacers that are secured to the fabric and are disposed between adjacent end coils of the springs to maintain them apart. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, adjacent end coils of adjacent springs are joined by links that are in swinging connection with these coils.
The spacers are preferably in the form of staples that are desirably separately formed from the links, the prongs of these staples being passed through the fabric and lapped over the links whereby the links are secured in place and cooperate with the staples in holding the coils in assembly with the fabric, the sides of the staples serving ,as spacers to maintain the coils apart.
I will explain my invention more fully by reference to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a box spring made in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the invention; Fig. 2 is a plan view of a part of the structure shown in Fig. 1, on a larger scale, and with parts broken away, this view being taken generally on line 2 2 of Fig. 3; Fig. 3 is a sectional view on line 3-3 of Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is a perspective view illustrating two parts of adjacent coils, an adjacent portion of the textile fabric, and a link and staple which cooperate in holding t-he adjacent coils in assembly with the fabric; and Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing some of the parts of Fig. 4 in separated relation.
The mattress illustrated is inclusive of spaced apart elongated axially compressible coiled springs 1 which are assembled in suitably spaced apart relation within a so-called box 2 which may be formed of a single sheet of textile fabric sewed and seamed as illustrated in Fig. 1. The end coils of adjacent springs are joined, where adjacent, by means of links 3 which may be formed of short pieces of sheet metal whose ends are overturned to trap the adjacent portions of adjacent end coils, as illustrated most clearly in Figs. 4 and 5. These links serve to prevent the adjacent end coils of adjacent springs from becoming separated and also form iexible connect-ions between these coils that are in swinging connection with the links.
U-shaped sharp pronged staples 4 are passed through the textile vfabric that forms the box 2 from the outside of this fabric, the prongs embracing the links 3 upon the inner side of the fabric and being lapped over the links. Said staples thus serve to hold the links in place and while the links serve to prevent separation of the end coils of adjacent springs, said staple-s serve to prevent the approach and the overlapping of the adjacent coils as the sides of the staples act as spacers to preserve these end coils apart. The base portions of the staples bridge the gap between the overturned ends of the links and the ends of the staples overlap the base portions of the links so that the links and staples, in effect, form unitary structures which serve firmly to hold the coils in proper relation with the textile fabric while permitting independent movements and flexures of the springs and in a manner which does not yinterfere with the flexibility of the mattress as a whole.
Changes may be made without departing from the invention.
Having thus described my invention, I claim: i
1. In a mattress, the combination with spaced apart elon ated axially compressible coiled springs; 0 textile fabric secured to end coils of said springs; links joining and in swinging connect-ion with adjacent end coils of said springs; and staples passing 100 through the fabric and disposed between adof said springs; and staples passing through jacent end coils of said springs to serve as the fabric and disposed between adjacent end 10 spacers to maintain these coils apart. coils of said springs and embracing said lnlrs 2. In a mattress, the combination with to serve as spacers to maintain these coils 5 spaced apart elongated axially compressible apart. f
