Description
Oct. 14, 1930. w. o. PERKINS 1,778,585
ROCKING CHAIR Filed June 7. 1929 Patented Oct. 14, 1930 UNITED STATES WILLIAM 0. PERKINS, OF BUCKNER, VIRGINIA ROCKING CHAIR Application filed June 7, 1929. Serial No. 369,195.
My present invention has reference to a churn, and my primary object is the provision of a device of this character wherein the milk in the churn will be agitated in the easiest possible manner and with perfect coinfort to the operator, one that the globules will be soon broken up and the milk churned to butter.
In carrying out my invention it is my object to support in clamping position on the lower transverse rounds of an ordinary rocking chair a churn body of a particular and peculiar formation, so as to present baffie surfaces against which the milk in the churn will be brought into contact when the chair is rocked by the occupant thereof so that the milk in the churn can be thus easily and quickly churned into butter by the mere rocking of the chair'by the person seated there- To the attainment of the foregoing and other objects which will present themselves, the improvement also resides in certain other novel features of construction, combination and operative association of parts, one satisfactory embodiment of which is disclosed by the accompanying drawings.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improvement in applied position.
Figure 2 is a front elevation thereof.
Figure 8 is a side elevation with parts broken away and parts in section.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, the numeral 1 designates an ordinary rocking chair. The front and rear legs of the rocking chair are connected by lower rounds 2 respectively, and in the showing of the drawings the seat 3 is hingedly connected, as at 4, to the back of the chair. The hinged seat is desirable in order that the operator of the churn may observe the condition of the milk in the churning operation, and by providing the said hinge 4 milk or cream can be also poured into the churn body.
The churn body may be of any desired material and in the showing of the drawings is of substantially rectangular formation. The churn body is indicated by the numeral 5. Thebottom of the body inclines upwardly from the ends to the center thereof, the said bottom being indicated by the numeral 6 and the top inclines outwardly and up wardly from the ends adjacent to the center thereof, there being a space left between the 5 confronting ends of the top members 7. This space is closed by a suitable flanged cover 8 that is tightly secured against the walls of the opening and is latched to the top of the churn 5 by means The rear of the churn, wlien' arranged beneath the chair' and supported on the rounds 2 extends a suitable distance to the rear of the chair, and the straight lower rear face of the churn body 5 has screwed therein adjacent to the bottom thereof a faucet 10. The bottom of the churn is provided with pairs of spaced spring clips 11 which are arranged for grippingly engag with the sides of the rounds 2 and thereby effectively sustain the churn body on the said rounds. Obviously if desired, the spring clamping fingers 11 may be provided with binding means or with holding means, the binding means being in the nature of ordinary bolts which are screwed through the outer elements of the clamping fingers and contact with the rounds and the holding means being in the nature of longer bolts which pass through the clamping fingers and underlie the rounds, both of such constructions being disclosed by the dotted lines in Figure 3 of the drawings.
When the necessary milk and cream is arranged in the churn body and the said churn body is positioned on the rounds 2 it is merely necessary that the occupant of the chair rock the same. This rocking will effectively agitate the milk in the churn body, causing the same to be violently contacted with the baflie surfaces provided by the juncture of the angle bottom 2 and the inclined surfaces of the top 7 and the straight ends of the body. By a construction as just described it will be obvious that the laborious work ordinary required in churning butter will be entirely overcome and that the housewife or occupant of the chair may engage in embroidering or other household work during the churning operation. As disclosed by the drawings the rear legs are connected to the rounds by brace elements 11.
To assist in the forward rocking of the improvement I provide springs. Preferably the rockers 12 of the chair construction have fixedly secured on their rear ends clips 13, each of the said clips designed to effectively clamp thereon the comparatively straight end of an arched spring 14, and obviously by contacting these springs with the floor surface will materially assist the chair construction in its forward rocking movement and consequently expedite the churning operation.
It is believed the simplicity and advantages of the improvement will be apparent to those skilled in the art without further detailed description, but obviously I do not wish to be restricted to the precise details herein set forth and, therefore, hold myself entitled to make such changes therefrom as fairly fall within the scope of what I claim.
Having described the invention, I claim A rocking chair for the purpose set forth, substantially rectangular clips slidably arranged on the rockers adjacent to the rear thereof, binding means passing through the top of the clips for contacting with the upper edges of the rockers, an arched spring having a straight longitudinal extension which is received between the clip and the under face of the rocker and which is adjustably and removably held thereon by the binding means between the clip and rocker.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
lNILLIAM O. PERKINS.
