JOSEPH J' SHOEMAKER, OF GLAWSON, MIOHIGAINiASSIGNOR F ONE-THIRD TO KEN- NETH' H. QUAIL, OF ROYAL. OAK, -MIGHIGAN EXERCISING APPARATUS Application filed July 10,1929. Serial 110,377,173.
My invention relates to an exercising apparatus for children and an object of my improvements is to provide a compact, strong and cheap apparatus adapted to be adjusted to different requirements and that may be readily constructed from stock that may be procured in the open market.
I secure this object in the device illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in
wh ich away.
Figure 315' a'section on the line 111, 111', Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrow.
Figure 4 is a detail plan view showing the 2 right hand end of the base A.
Figure 5 is a detail sectional view on the line V, V, Figure 1.
Figure 6 is a detailvlew of the seat portion separate from the apparatus.
Figure 7 is a detail view of one of the spring bars.
Figure 8 is'a side elevation of a portion of the part 2 of the base.
The base A is made up of a longitudinal girder 2, which may be a plank of the-form shown in Figure l placed with its breadth in a vertical plane.
3, 3 are cross pieces placed at the ends of the girder 2 and extending equally on both sides of the same. The cross pieces 3 are con nected to the member 2 by a short piece of an= gle iron 23 secured in the corners between the parts to be united by bolts 23a passing through said parts and through the'flanges of the angle iron.
4 is a straight bar of spring steel rectangular in cross section and of the proper dimensions for the purpose indicated. 5 is a piece of angle iron having flanges 5a and 5b. The flange 5a lies against one side of the member 2 and is pivoted thereto by a bolt 25 passing through said flange and through a bolt-hole in the part 2. are U-bolts passing over one end of said bar 4 that lies upon a flange 5b and through holes in said flange and serving with the usual nuts to bind said bar against the upper surface of said flange. 5ab are holes spaced from each other in an arc'of a circle from the bolt 25 at the opposite end of the flange 5a.
2a ind cates a series of holes, three in this instance through the member 2 in the arc" of a circle from the bolt 25, so that they will register with the holes 542? as the angle iron 5 is turned about the bolt 25. 52 is a'bolt adapted to pass through the holes 5d?) and 2a. The bolt 52 may be placed in any pair of registering holes,thus securing six points of angular adjustment for the iron 5'and the bar 4 secured thereon.
j 6 is a seat portion. This is provided with two arms 6a, 6a extending parallel to each other with a convenient space therebetween. The seat portion 6 is secured to the outer end of the bar 4 by a strap 46 and bolts 46a, with the arms 6a extending along the bar 4. 7 is an ornamental portion, which may represent a horses head, placed between the arms 6a and secured thereto by bolts 67. This constitutes a hobby-horse construction.
, 8 is a stirrup piece having indentations 8a, 8a, to receive the foot of the rider, in its upper surface. 48 is astrap by'which the stirrup 8 is secured to the bar 4, by means of bolts 48a.
A bar 4 with its attached partsis secured, as above described, to each side of the mem ber 2 upon opposite sides of the center of the part 2 and extending at an angle upward and y toward the further end of said member.
Children may occupy the seats 6 and will thus face each other and by a movement of the body may secure anoscillating' move ment, due to the resilience of the bar'4.
The bar 4 may be adjusted in position to suit 8 45, or such a piece of steelmay be placed above 1% the bar 4, as shown at 9a in Figure 1, and an adjustable collar 10 may encircle the bar and said piece to bind them together. The collar may be adjusted longitudinally of the bar and fixed in any desired position by a set screw 10a to adjust and regulate the resistance to bending. v p
The base A may be made of twoinch plank and all the metal parts are conventional stock midway between the ends of said base piece thesame, a bar spring secured'to the last and extending in opposite directions and a hobby-horse construction on each spring.
2. In an apparatus of the kind described, the combinationof abasepiece having a vertical side, a piece of angle iron having one flange engaging against said side and secured to said basepiece and the other extending in flange engaging against said side and the other extending in a plane at right angles to named flange, saidpiece of angle iron being pivotally secured to said basepiece by a bolt passing through the first named flange and said base piece, said first named flange being provided with a'hole passing therethrough remote from said pivotal belt, a plurality of holes in said base piece adapted to register with said hole through the flange asthe same is turned about said bolt and a bolt adapted to en-gagein said holes, for the purpose described and a hobby horse construction-on said spring. 1 p
i In an apparatus of the kind described, the combinationiof a base piece consisting of a straight pieceof timber with. its sides'in a vertical plane, cross pieces at the ends of said timber, said cross-pieces being secured to said timber by pieces of angle iron and bar springs secured at their ends in an inclined position at opposite sides of said timber and midway the ends of said timber and extending in opposite directions- In" an apparatus 'ofithe kind described, the combination of a base piece having a vertieal side, a piece of: angle ironv having one flangeengagingagainst said side and secured to said base piece and. the other extending in a plane at :right angles to the same, a bar spring'secured to the last named flange, said piece of angle iron being pivotally secured to said base piece by a bolt passing through the first named flange and said base piece, said first named flange being provided with a plurality of holes passing therethrough remoterfrom said pivotal bolt, a plurality of holes in said base piece adapted to register with said holes through the flange as the .same'" is, turned about said bolt and a bolt adapted to engage in said holes, for the purpose described and a hobby-horse construction on said spring.
6. In an apparatus of the kind described,
7 the combination of abase piece consisting of a straightpiece of'timber withits sides in a vertical plane, cross pieces supporting said timber, s'aidcross pieces being secured to said timber. by pieces of angle-iromand bar springs each of the said springs being. se-
cured'at its end to one flange of a piece of angle-iron the other flanges of; the pieces'of angle-iron secured to the ends of said bars being secured to opposite vertical sides of said timber, said springs extendingin opposite inclined directions, and a hobby-horse construction upon each of said springs.
7. In an apparatus. of the kind described, the combination of a base piece consisting of a straight piece of timber with its sides in a vertical plane, bar springs each of said springs-being secured atits end to; one flange of a piece of angle-iron the other flanges of the pieces of. angle-iron being secured to epposite vertical sides of said timber midway between. the ends of said timber, said springs extending in opposite inclined directions, and a hobby-horse construction upon each of said springs.
