2 Claims. 7 (cl. 5 s45') The present invention relates to mattresses and more especially the provision of handles whereby same may be more readily moved from place to place or moved about on a bedstead. Among the objects of this invention are to provide an easily manufactured handle of the character indicated; to provide a handle which is strong and will not be readily torn from the mattress; to provide a handle which will not tear the goods of a mattress when the same is being handled, as by being moved from place to place; and such further objects, advantages and capabilities as will hereafter appear and as are inherent in the construction disclosed herein. Our invention further resides in the combination, construction and arrangement of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawing and, while we have shown therein what is now considered the preferred embodiment of this invention, we desire the same to be understood as illustrative only and not to be interpreted in a limiting sense.
In the drawing annexed hereto and forming a part hereof,
Fig. 1 shows a fragmentary edge view of a mattress, illustrating the application of my invention thereto;
v Fig. 2 is a longitudinalsection of the structure shown in Fig. 1 taken substantially along the plane indicated by the line 2 -2 of that figure and Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken substantially along the plane indicated by the line li -3, Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is an enlarged, fragmentary view similar to Fig. 3 and illustrating the construction of the handle more in detail;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary. view illustrating the construction when thehandle is turned at a right angle to the position illustrated in Fig. 1.
The goods of which the boxing 1 of the mattress is constructed is illustrated as being folded about a cord or cords 2, as shown most clearly in Fig. 4, and is stitched to form the ornamental and reenforcing beads 3. However, the provision of this cording is optional with the manufacturer tween these cords and the upper and lower edges of the material 1, a portion of the material is partly or entirely cut away as shown at 4 and, if only partly cut away, is folded. back across the middle line to form a reenforcement for the handle 5. In the form illustrated in Figs. 1' to 4, these folded back portions, indicated by the numerals 6 and 7, constitute parts of the handle, all three layers of cloth being bound together by the central portion of the bindings 8. Other methods of reenforceinent of this tick material may be utilized, such as putting a piece of duck or other strong material inside of the material 1 and then cutting the holes 4 therethrough, and removing the material from both the outer material 1 and the duck or other lining material. The edges of these goods, surrounding the openings 4, should then be secured together and finished in some way to give a neat appearance, as by ap- V plying binding thereto.
' When the openings 4 are arranged as illustrated in Fig. 1 and bindings 8 are used upon the edges of the material, the ends of these bindings are secured with the bindings 9 to the edges of the goods land the ticking of the top and bottom of the mattress. .While I have illustrated these edgings as being secured together by means of stitching, it will be understood that other known means of fastening same may be utilized,
such as snap fasteners, eyelets and lacing, etc.
and is notto be understood in a restrictive sense.
Inside of the boxing 1 is a strip of lining or backing material 10 which is also secured along its edges to the material 1 and to the top and bottom of the mattress, the ends of the backing material or lining 10 being left unsecured. The goods 10 is illustrated as ending at the lines 11, I shown in Fig. 1, though the particular location of the termination of the ends of this goods is not material. This serves primarily as a cover for the openings4 and as means to prevent the filling of the mattress from escaping through these openings.
In the construction shown in Fig. 5, the handle is formed at a right angle to that shown in Fig. 1 but in this case, the material 1 is cutout completely to form the openings 4 and the edges of these openings are shown as having binding 8 applied thereto to serve as a finishing therefor. It will be understood that reenforcernents for the handle 5 may be dispensed with entirely, if desired, or that this handle may be reenforced by 1 0 folding back the partly cut away goods, as illustrated in Figs. 1 to 4, or by lining the goods 1 with stronger material and fastening the same thereto in any desired manner. If the edging or binding 8 is used, it is stitched around the openings formed in the material 1 and furnishes a finish therefor, as well as serving to reenforce the goods. Since both methods of making the handles have their advantages, we do not desire that our claims be limited to either structure,
mainder thereof by cuts extending frorn the edges inwardly toward the medial longitudinal line of the edge covering, said partly severedportions being folded inwardly afrgross 'tli 'fal line and secured to the uncut central portion, said mattress having a lining material placed between the edge of the mattressifilller and the covering for the mattress edge, said lining material being secured at its oppositelat eral edges to the edges of the top and bottom of the mattress and. the edge covering material, and binding material surrounding the openings formed in the edge covering material and secured thereto to serve as a reenforcement for the handle.
2. A mattress having an edge covering, portions of which are severed from .the body of the covering material except along one side and folded'b acl; one'uppn the other, said severed portions beirig'secured td' said unsevered portion adjacent to the fold lines to form reenforcements for the unsevered portion located between the severed portions, and binding material surrounding the openings formed by the cutting f olding"operations, said binding material being"secured to the edge covering and serving as a reen'forcement around the edges of the openings.
