- This invention relates to improvements inv bedsteads and bed-bottoms, and has for one of its objects to provide novel and serviceable devices of this kind of which the latter shall be yielding and vyieldingly supported to the.
view, the nature of which will become ap-A parent as th'e` description proceeds, the in'- vention consists of the construction, combination and arrangement' of partsl hereinafter ullydescribed and claimed, and illustrated' in the accompanying drawings, wherein: c y
kFigure 1 is a sectional view'taken on a plane extending vertically and centrally through a bedstead and bed-botten; constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken lonthe horizontal planes indicated by the` line 2-2 ofFigure1," l' f y Figure 3 isaidetail top plan view'of a y fragmentary portion ofthe bed-bottom, and Figure 4 is a' sectionalV view taken on' the planes indicated bythe line l-l of Figure l. 30 Corresponding andlike parts are referred to in the following description, and designated in the Aseveral'views of the accompanying drawings, by similar reference Y characters. v Y
The bedstead comprises a head member 1, foot member 2 and side rails 3. vThe bedstead may be made of wood or metal, and the Y from the bars 4 by coil springs 7. vCoil,
springs 8- which are lighter than the coil springs 7, arev secured tothe bars 5 and 6 and serve to cushion the'. reaction of the springs 7 The springs 7 and 8 arelocated within the head and foot members 1' and 2 which are` provided at their inner sides with vertical slots 9. Head levers 10 and. foot levers 10u or" angular formation, are pivotally secured through the medium of their horizcntal arms to the bars 6. The horizontal arms of the levers 10 and 10n pass through the slots 9.1 The vertical arms of the levers 10 and "10a extend downwardly, and'secured to the lower ends of these `arms is a coil spring 11 which iunctions to normally maintain the horizontal arms of the levers in horizontal position. Y
The bed-bottom comprises flexible rods 12, heady links 13 connected by cross bars 14,'jl'oot links 15V connected by cross bars' 1G, and spring rods 17 and 18. The rods 12 are connected to the linksl 13 and 15 adjacent the upper ends of the latter. l The rods 17 are` connected to the lower ends of the head links 13 as shown at 19,'a`nd are pivotally connected as shown at 20to the foot levers 10a. rlhe rods V18 are connected as at 21 to the lower ends of the toot links15, and vare pivotally lower ends of the head links 13 are 'connected to the head floating bar 6 by stay rods 23, and the lower ends of the foot links 15 are connected to the loatingootbar Gby stay rods"24=. r Stay springs 25 are secured at their upper ends tofcross-b'ars 26 which are located below the rods 12` and slidably connected thereto by'sleeves 27. The lower ends of certainV oi." the springs Y25l are slidably connectedgto the rods 17, and the` lower lends of the remainderV of the these springs are slidaconnected as at 22 to the head levers 10. The y blyconnected tothe rods 1'8. The connection 1 l between the springs l25v androds 17 and 15v is established through the medium of loops ,Y 2 8 formed on the flower ends of the springs Y andembracing the rods. The Ysprings y25 may, since they are slida'bly connected to the rods1`2, 17 and 18, be adjustedtowards and asoccasionI may remiire.y Y Y Y l The mattress 29vmay `be supported directly from the 'bed-bottom by.v being placed vfrom the vtransverse center of the bed-bottom upon` the flexible rods' 12 or it :may vbe Ysupported from the bed-'bottom through the medium of springs 80, as shown in Figure l. The springs are secured at their lower ends to the rods 12 and at their upper ends to longitudinal tie bars 31;
As the rods l2 are iexible,1and as they are held under tension by the spring 11, spring rods 17 and 18, and springs 25, the bed-bottom possesses the desired elasticity. n View the1eo,'and as the bed-bottom is yieldingly suspended from the bedstead', it
will afford the maximumucomfort'. The' bed-bottom is yieldingly maintained in a horizontal position by coil springs SQthat'are secured to the upper ends of the linksl and l5 and to thefloating bars 6. Thesesprings and the springs 8, which latter cushion the reactiono the springs 7, assist in rendering the bed-bottom comfortable. t A
. It should be understood that the drawings springs secured to and between the flexible rods and spring rods, and stay rods secured to the lower ends of the links and to the pivot members of the levers. Y Y
