Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIoE.
MOSES SEWARD, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.
I IMPROVEMENT IN CARRIAGE FOOT-RESTS.
Specification forming part of Letters PatentNo. 197,983, dated December 11, 1877; application filed December 20, 1876.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, MosEs SEwARD, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Carriage Foot-Rests; and I do hereby declarethe following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, 1n-
Figure 1, a top view, and in Fig. 2 a transverse section. l
This invention relates 4to the manufacture of that part of carriage iron-work commonly termed the foot-resti-that is to say, the iron bar which, in fine carriages, is arranged on the foot-board, or on the bottom in front of the seat, upon which to rest the feet.
This is usually formed by the carriagesmith, and, to roughen the surface, a sharprinstrument is driven into the surface to raise a succession of burrs. These, being small and sharp, soon wear away, and the necessary roughness, whereby the sole of the boot will cling to the rest, is lost.
The object of this invention is to furnish to carriage-makers a completely-formed foot'rest,
v with the surface roughened in such a manner as not to easily wear away; and it consists in a carriage foot-rest the surface of which is forged with raised serrated surfaces, as more fully hereinafter described.
The rest consists of a bar, A, with its ends turned down and shaped into ears B, by which the rest is secured. A third foot or support, C, is usually formed at the center. The sur face of the bar is preferably flat.
.()n the surface of the bar raised surfaces or portions are formed, as at c, of any desirablepattern, and these surfaces serrated, so as to form a rough surface, as seen in Fig. 2.. These surfaces are formed in dies in the process of forging the rest, and they present a roughened surface which is capable of standing a longcontinued wear, and at the same time highly ornaments the rest, giving it a much more finished appearance than can be done by the usual method of picking the surface.
' I do not wish to be understood as broadly claiming a foot-rest in which portions of the surface are Toughened, as such Iam aware is not new.
I claim- As an article of manufacture, the hereindescribed carriage-rest, consisting of a bar with suitable supports, and constructed with raised serrated portions on the surface, forged in one and the same piece with the bar, substantially as described.
MOSES SEVARD.
